Can the son of the darkest wizard in Fable save it?
Shorty's world is in trouble. The land of Fable is falling victim to a growing darkness, one being spread by an evil dark wizard named Alric who is bent on making every fairy tale fall. Even the Star Kingdom, the lightest part of Fable, is falling to the encroaching evil. On top of that, Shorty's grandmother hates him and even the knights around his castle fear his presence.
The fact that he's the son of Alric might have something to do with that.
No matter how far Shorty runs, he cannot escape from his origin and the dark magic pulsing through him. When a group of refugees arrives on his doorstep, one of them with a magic ball of yarn that can show you anywhere you want to go, Shorty realizes his time of hiding is over. Â That, and they're being pursued by Annie, Alric's evil sister.
Shorty must act. Finding and facing the dark wizard himself is the only thing that will free him—and Fable—from the darkness.
