Thanks for the video man. One of my favorite Fable memories has to be from Fable 2 when I knocked up my wife and my dad was in the room and he heard her say "I've got a bun in thee oven". He laughed pretty hard before he got on my case. 😂 (My dad just passed away and I've been pretty down lately. Your vids always cheer me up a bit. Thanks)
@@Skyrionn Thank you my dude. Sadly it's a part of life and it has happen sooner or later... just have to roll with the punches and remember the good times. You be safe as well. Can't wait to see a Fable "4" lore or play through of yours.
Not lore that I am aware of, but quite a few modding channels which are great. Avarice is a fantastic Fable modder that is currently recreating unused content in Fable TLC.
@@Skyrionn We have a very small but GREAT Fable community on TH-cam. I recommend The Fable Historian too ! If you have other suggestion I'll take it for sure :D
Not going to lie but kind of wish that fable iii can have dlcs that can let other players see the hero of brightwall explore parts of tattered spire and the other things he was only told about of his father sparrow
Mourningwood (hehe) has so little commonality with the other games in terms of location that it is hard to come up with theories about the place as everything about it is new, despite it only being a sewer away from Bowerstone, apparently. At a guess…it used to be Brightwood since it’s so close to the city, but someone didn’t want to be Chesty’s friend so he used his unnatural Chesty powers to transform the region into a hellish landscape filled with Hollow Men and the Hero of Bowerstone, now King, sent a legion into the Forrest to check on his dear old friend.
I brought out my old 360 in March and played fable 2 and 3. the nostalgia and memories all came back to me, then I found your channel I’m so thankful there’s someone out there who still loves fable enough to make a lore channel of it! Love your vids so much
You're welcome! I enjoy making them so much. The Fable games were a huge part of my childhood and I'm glad that they bring out a sense of nostalgia for you too!
Absolutely LOVE these lore videos! There's literally nobody else that could have explained all these events better. I'm obsessed with Fable and somebody else being able to put these events into a story with just as much love, if not more, makes me geek out all over again. Will you be doing any lore from Journey at all?? I would love to hear some background on Gabriel since nobody liked the actual game. Understandable but that storyline just UGH GETS TO ME. Such amazing work by the way! ❤❤
I think the wooden panels you said were probably built to keep the marshes in were actually most likely trenches that the army had built before they were pushed back by the undead I think
I imagine the name was deliberate. Knowing the devs of Fable, they’re not above a play on words like that. That demon door realm is cool though. It makes me wonder if the doors really lead to small pocket dimensions and instead open to locations in the world. Because that looked like a completely different planet. And if there’s air, there may be things living there. Maybe places like the Homestead Realm and the Demon Door Retirement Community exist in the world and people can stumble upon them. But they’re just not in Albion or something.
It's definitely one of my favourite realms. I am also obssessed with space and everything out there so actually being able to go onto another planet was great. And yeah, I'm sure the name was deliberate!
You know I still don’t understand how the people of MourningWood coexist with Hollow Man peacefully! That’s like if the People of Bloodstone want to make a village in the Colosseum of tombs in WraithMarsh, away from the town of Bloodstone. BTW love this video, I will not fine a pure Fable fan better than you.😁
It's absolutely one of those things were I couldn't find a reason to explain it. There must be some sort of *magical* reason maybe why they stay away? Thanks for the support Zain!
I've got a dumb question for you, Skyrionn: how are you able to use freefly camera, like when you were hovering over that tree? I didn't know there were mods for Fable 3.
@@Skyrionn me too! You're the lore master for fable in TH-cam. Lol I legit haven't seen any other channel that provides even a small amount of what all you've covered, let alone with level of quality. So thank you for making these. My whole rpg experience began with the original release of the first game in the fable series so your effort into all the info and theory you put into your videos is awesome and something I'm super grateful for.
Y'know, I'd theorize that the Mouringwood Region might be the Lychfield Graveyard 550 years later. After all, between Fable and Fable 2, some things got moved around, Bowerstone has expanded a lot over the centuries, has it not?
It's a little frustating that the maps between games just don't match up. There isn't an explanation either. It's likely due to the developers needing a fresh map to fit in all of their new locations, although I guess some of the movements could be explained with a 500 year difference?
I love the name pun of Mourningwood but I really really dislike the region. just the sheer amount of Hollow Men are a pain in the ass and it doesn't help that some of the area is home to Damage Sponge Hobbes. let alone the cannon minigame which is almost impossible to get a high score. I wish you could do more to improve the region. like refortifying the fort and or increase Hollow Men extermination methods. Though I still enjoy the Sam and Max quests. IDK Mourningwood is a mixed bag for me
@@Skyrionn The choice to stop poluting it with Sewage Should've made the region less marshy or something help the environmental villagers restore it to a natural paradise. Have like gravekeepers or something tend to the Graves to keep the wisps in peace. It really should've been the games Oakfield
This was actually a region I disliked on my original playthrough- but have a bit more of an appreciation now. I think I just hate Hollowmen- the region is quite lovely.
I disliked the area because of the morph system of the game, I always get bone weapons by the time I finish this region. I like the esthetic of undead and swamps though.
I hate the hollowmen. One of my biggest issues with Fable 3 was the constant spawning and waves of enemies when travelling through regions. Mourningwood was a prime example.
@@Skyrionn that’s actually a thing with fable throughout the series as far as I can tell there is always enemies in a region or area in each of the games (as far as I can remember, been awhile since I played through them ALL.), however fable 3 was more egregious with it since they always spawned in the same points on the map.
Nice, to be honest, it would be great when you bought Mourningwood Fort and the Swift Brigade would appear as NPC soldiers to protect the fort it's a shame, in short when you become a King it would be nice if Ben Finn would be there to suggest as a promise or a budget for upgrade soldiers weapons or station them in the Fort.
One thing about Fable 2 or should I say the whole Fable series when it died I got a little upset who am I kidding I got very upset when you realized you cannot get certain items anymore just because the servers and all that are dead or whatever it was and I'm not saying like the game servers are dead because I know on number three they still exist but if you're playing on number two and you go to the actual website you cannot get the code to unlock the chest inside the heroes guild which is very unfair
@@Skyrionn somewhere in the village maybe hidden behind a demon door there's a powerful source that keeps the hollow Men away that's why they don't attack it.
It just wouldn’t be a fable game without:
- A terrifying swamp area
- bowerstone
- Theresa
Guessing Darkwood for Fable 1? Never really thought of it as a swamp, but makes sense. I've always thought of it like a dead forest.
@@boonski swamps are forested wetlands, so Darkwood is a forested wetland (there is ankle deep water in my memory) and it borders Barrow fields which is a wetland area
@@TheJcjonesacp I said makes sense. However Barrow Fields is more Farmland.
Don't forget farts!

You'd think with how common it is for the deceased to be possessed, that burning remains would be more common.
Not going to lie but kind of wish that fable iii can have dlcs that can let other players see the hero of brightwall explore parts of tattered spire and the other things he was only told about of his father sparrow
That would have been brilliant! Even just to see how the locations had adapted over the 50 years.
@@Skyrionn one word Wraith Marsh and Darkwood Marshes

Dont worry they give you a chiken costume, gold or a halo sword worst than the first sword you have.
It's a shame you missed out on that. I think the only major thing you missed out on was the Halo stuff
I think Mourningwood is what Brightwood turned to
Unfortunately not. We see Brightwood Tower from Silverpines and it looks to still be in great condition. Good thought though!

Pretty good question tbh
