Re: "And so our story beings..."
Fable - Fable The Lost Chapters
When you were young your village was burned to the ground from a bandit raid. You lost all your family and you could not survive. A hero appears, Maze which leads you to the hero's guild, where you wake your heroic blood.
After some years of quests and heroic deeds, good or evil, you meet your sister and learn the truth about her past, after you heroically fight in the arena your sister tells you the truth about whom murdered your father: Jack of Blades.
You go into the worst place in all Albion, Bargate Prison to save your mother. However, Jack of Blades stops you and puts you in jail for year while he is free to roam Albion for a year.
However, you escape, learn more about the Sword of Aeon's and you fight the person who saved you, Maze. When Maze falls your blood calls for revenge upon Jack of Blades.
The place you grew, your home was burning, the Hero's Guild, you fight Jack of Blades and ultimately defeating him. However, it was not over yet, you discover after years that Jack of Blades is alive, you reach the farthest part of Albion where you meet the oracle and sacrifice hero souls to open the gates and fight Jack of Blades as a dragon, ultimately killing him and saving Albion.
Fable II
500 years have passed since the fight Jack of Blades in his dragon form. Albion grew up and guns were created, the hero's guild doesn't exist and Bowerstone's a big city now.
You are poor child that lives in Bowerstone with your sister, Rose. However, the events lead you to the music box and ancient artifact which grants wishes, however Lucien Fairfax murders your sister and tries to do so with you.
However you survive, take on the quest to destroy Lucien and take Revenge, you spend years to find every hero with certain sacrifices and spend long years in the Spire to save Garth, the hero of the will.
Ultimately, you destroy the person that killed your sister, Lucien Fairfax and Theresa uses the power of the Spire to grant your one and only wish.
Fable III
50 years have passed since the events of little sparrow. However, Albion now it's into the industrial age. Your father/mother was once a great king/queen however it's now dead and your brother Logan takes over the kingdom causing it to fall into tyranny and despair.
You escape from your castle as a young prince/princess and start your revolution. Where you defeat your brother, Logan and take over the kingdom and you will rule it yourself. Will you be a good leader? Or a worser tyrant than your brother?
Final Opinion
After I have briefly talked about the three storyline which the games take place. I believe that the best storyline lies in Fable III. Of course, the first Fable is great, epic and legendary, however Fable III has a depth and an opening for many storyline plots, betrayals and much else that we will hopefully see in the game's release.
Fable II's storyline could have been better. However, do not categorize it as "bad" Compared to the first Fable it has a better design and depth in the story, of course it's not epic however you can feel the world of Fabe, Albion around you and see how your wish for vengeance where will lead you.
Fable seems to be mostly about vengeance and what you will become. Will you let the thirst for vengeance make you evil and murderer? Or you will learn from the world and become truly a hero?
