*it must act as if it is impervious to external influence
*it must assume the reader is as much apart of the world as those being read about
-Mimesis is the art of persuading the reader to forget the meditation of language
*it doesn't mean we are in the world, but we must share assumptions of the world .. i.e Pride and Prejudice
*we must sit in the heads of the protagonists accepting what they know as the world
-Immersive fantasy is the fantasy of thinning, portal-quest fantasy emphasizes on recognition, healing and the restoration of the grandeur of previous days, immersive fantasies are overwhelmingly concerned with the entropy(lack of order or predictability) of the world
-Intrusion, portal quest, and liminal fantasies all need the belief in a dividing line between the real and not real to function.
-Immersive does not- we think of the emergence of modern immersive fantasy as a rediscovery of the reality of the fantastic and with a set of ways to express that belief
-Most common place to find the concentric construction is in sci-fi
-Coherency is crucial to creating the ironic mimesis of the immersive fantasy. It is possible to create a world in which anything can and does happen. But if one does this then it is impossible to make the characters questioning and extrapolating(extend the application of a method or conclusion to an unknown situation by assuming that existing tends will continue or similar methods will be applicable) beings.
-Immersive fantasy looks at the world sidelong-the restriction to worldview of someone who already knows the world has interesting effects
-that which is taken for granted by the protagonist us frequently marked by an ordinariness of description
