Even though they have the power to create any outlandish situations they can imagine, fantasy writers often set themselves very strict rules and guidelines for what is possible in their stories. Without doing so, their work will lack any $\(\qquad\)$ of reality and be nearly impossible for readers to accept.

Semblance is the correct answer.
Fantasy writers have to define and follow certain rules in their stories. If they don't do so, then it won't appear (semblance) realistic and the readers would find it difficult to connect with the story.

Based on the context, you can conclude that fantasy writers adhere to guidelines and rules so that their work is not completely unrealistic and unacceptable to readers. This means they want to maintain a certain appearance of reality, and semblance means "appearance." Choice A, participation, does not work well in this context since reality does not really participate in anything. Choice B, moral, means "lesson," which does not make sense in this context. Choice C, implement, means "tool," which does not make sense either. Choice D , hierarchy, means "a system arranged according to importance or power," which does not make sense in this context.
