Returning characters keep their original genders and personalities. Religious themes are absent entirely. The whole thing is built around personal courage, community loyalty, and a clear good-versus-evil conflict, which are the core ingredients of traditional children's storytelling. Families looking for uncomplicated fantasy adventure without cultural commentary will find exactly that here.
