Then again, what, is there no evil of any sort? (WHAT WHAT WHAT WHERE)
Reminds me of a line from Lord of the Rings. Paraphrasing from memory, but Gandalf says something to the effect of:

Even if we cast down Sauron, evil always takes a new shape. It may be just a shadow or shade of its former strength [and now I really am adding to it], but it's still there. It's not fully defeated because this is a fallen world.

And even if fantasies take place in A TOTALLY NEW SPARKLY ~FANTASY WORLD OMG!!1!, if it has no relation to our world, if we can't recognize ourselves and our lives in it somehow, then it's probably not going to ring true.
