Ok here you go here's the site with the stories
http://www.lionhead.com/fable2/TalesofAlbion/tales.htm
And heres what those stories are telling you about the man named "Scythe"
So according to the stories the first Archon, William Black,--from who all Heros are descended—made a pact with the Sword of Aeons in which the Sword would grant him the power to defeat the Blades Court in exchange for his soul. Once the court had been destroyed, the Archon’s body began to “waste” away from his time in the Void and the battle with the Court.
At about this time the Archon’s children began to inflict pain and suffering on the very people whom he’d given his life to save, but with he’d become weak enough at this point that there was nothing he could do to stop them. So William, faced with this decay “….wrapped his body in golden mail and a royal blue cloak before vanishing”. That was the last time the man known as William Black was seen.
The story goes on to say that the Archon’s children went on to inherit his kingdom and bring about wave after wave of oppression and violence with each new Archon, which abruptly ended with the activation of the spire which ushered in a feudal war time in Albion.
This warring time carried on for awhile and only ended with the appearance of a man named Nostro. Now what Nostro did is not really important, what was is important is the man who taught him how to control his powers—Scythe. Scythe was described as being “ …a wraith of a man…He carried an ornate sword and shrouded himself in a tattered blue cloak that hid tarnished golden armor…” Scythe is mentioned a few more times before the death of Nostro. Nostro had apparently called out to him in his dying moments and Scythe was “warm with affection” allowing Nostro to die peacefully.
Now on to Rose’s letter. For the sake of space and time I’m going to cut to the part about the man who she says “…knows our family. He told me his name, but I keep forgetting it. Weird. I think he’s a king or something. He’s very thin and wears a hood and looks scary, but he’s nice and I feel safe with him here…” It should be noted that Rose’s is still a child when she’s written this letter; even if she has been brought back to life she will not have developed mentally enough to make distinguishments that adults would. For instance what she calls a hood is more than likely a cloak. Going on further in her note she says that she thinks he’s a king; children often associate gold or intricate armors and wepons with kings; so it could be assumed that the man is carrying at least something along those lines on him--possibly golden armor or maybe an ornate sword. I’m going to go out on a limb here and say it’s both. She also goes on to says he looks scary. Children are often scared by things that can show them how bad life can be such as poverty or the decay of greatness; perhaps showing that this man is displaying this some how—maybe his cloak is old and tattered and he show signs of great aging. Yeah do you guys see what I’m getting at?
I don’t think that the Lionshead could have made it any more obvious unless they spelled it out; which I will kindly do for all of you.
William Black(Archon): Infected with a decaying illness, last seen wrapped in golden mail and a royal blue cloak, was the owner of the Sword of Aeons, and was known to have lived over a century without any adverse effect to him, had simply vanished, all heroes are descended from him
Scythe: appeared out of nowhere, was described as a “wraith of a man” –i.e. very then—and bore an “ornate sword” and wore a tattered blue cloak that hid his tarnished golden armor, actions were made out of hope for goodness and peace, made Nostro feel safe enough with himself that he could die peacefully, Recognized Nostros blood line immediately
The man in letter from Rose: Knew Rose’s family, had told Rose his name but she couldn’t seem to remember it (suggesting that it’s either an uncommon or extremely complicated to pronounce name or that he has told her a different name each time she has asked him; making her think that she had forgotten his name), he seemed like he was a king or something akin to it, was very thin and wore a hood and looks scary, gives off a kind aura
OR SIMPLY
William= Archon
Archon= Wore blue cloak and gold armor, wielded the Sword of Aeons, infected with a disease that causes his body to waste away—making him thiner—, Kind and Just ruler, “Father of all Heroes”
Scythe=Wore a tattered blue and old gold armor, wielded and “ornate sword”, was thin, and was kind and just, able to recognize hero blood lines
Man in Letter= Thin, is a king or some like it, has many names, is kind and comforting, wears a cloak and gold armor, wields a golden sword, recognized Rose and her families’ blood immediately, and almost all of his garments most likely show great wear and tear.
IN OTHER WORDS
William=Archon=Scythe=Man in Rose’s Letter
End of story
If you like JoB unlike me here ishis side of the letter:
"Dear Sparrow
I woke up today in such a peculiar place. It's like a great big forest, with lots and lots of trees that go on forever. I was scared at first because I couldn't find you, but there's someone here who says he knows us, knows our family. He told me his name, but I keep forgetting it. Weird. I think he's a king or something. He's thin and wears a hood and looks scary, but he's nice and I feel safe with him here. I hope your okay, Little Sparrow. Somehow I know that its going to be alrightm abd we'll be together again one day. He promised me.
Love
Rose
-But there is someone here who says he knows of our family.
(jack knows of the bloodline and your relation to the old kingdom.)
-he told me his name, but i keep forgetting it.
(jack maybe has a real name thats is demonic and is longer or incomprehensible.
-I think he is a king
or something
( a jack is close to the king a royal servant.)
-wears a hood
(jack has a hood and his mask looks scary and rose doesn't realise she is an adult since she has been "dead" all this time.
-bvut he's nice
(jack can act nice to gain confidence of rose for future plans.)
now if your going to say but jack is dead his mask was destroyed it isn't well we don't know if it is or isn't why because when you beat tlc and choose one of the options the pictures of your triomph is the same either way and when you go in the hero's guild in fable II (i think) you can go in the chamber of fate and the picture will be the same never revealing what the hero did.
not to go on jack's side (i hate him) but to just make people think of who it should be
what if it's barnum?(just kidding)
