The Mystery of Fable's World Map | Fable Anniversary EXPLORED

[@SiIentwhistle]

This channel has the BEST fable videos, genuinely wouldn’t be surprised if some of your videos were watched by people on the dev team for the new game for research.

[@TacticalShad0ws]

Wake up babe new Fable video dropped

[@Skyrionn]

Enjoy!

[@darklotus6595]

My friend group and I literally had a 3 hour debate about the map differences from 1 & 2 and a whole bunch of stuff relating to this. Love it

[@Skyrionn]

Nice! I'm glad this adds another dimension to it

[@supermaster2012]

Just a friendly tip, "Ye" is read similar to "Thye". The "Y" is the same sound as the "TH" in Shakespearian "thou" as both come from the forgotten Old Ænglish letter Thorn (þ/Þ), which became obsolete with the invention of the Wuttenberg press print and the need for standarization of the alphabet across Europe. For some reason Thorn became Y in some words and TH in others, I guess based on the availability of the different letter punches at the time. Every time I hear someone pronounce it as written I can't but imagine a green dino screeching "YEEEEE" in my head.

[@captainscruffy2409]

Amazing what lenghts some people take to bring more lore for this beloved childhood gem of a Game. Keep it up Sky

[@Skyrionn]

Thanks Captain! I love Fable and will post more when I find interesting things like this

[@gojibomb9245]

Thankyou for keeping this game alive ❤️

[@Skyrionn]

Thanks for keeping the community alive!

[@Nepururin]

Man, I found your channel through your Portal videos but I am so happy you did Fable videos as well. It is one of my fondest memories and I absolutely adore it

[@DaChickenKing1]

I can't believe I've spent all these years without knowing this channel existed. Thank you so much for making these fable videos they have answered so many questions I've had since the first game came out, I'm sharing this to my friends who like fable and my fable groups

[@AvariceOverlord]

John Speed sounds like an interesting fellow! Awesome job doing another Fable video, Sky! It's been a while!

[@supermaster2012]

Ah yes, nothing like a brothel tour across the continent to motivate a man to draw a map, a true classic.

[@fatefulbrawl5838]

Fable is so aptly named, it takes you on a journey that can only be described as such!

[@pietrofossati3031]

Really glad to see a new Fable video from you. I was getting worried you didn't find enjoyement from it anymore since we didn't get any kind of information whatsoever about the new game since the announcement. Really happy to have been proven wrong. Thanks again for contributing so much to this amazing frachise's fanbase.

[@linasalazar4906]

Since I only ever played Anniversary when I was trying to get the main trilogy, I never once thought about the text on the side of the map. I thought it was just to be a simple map codex or something.

[@ChillShroomy]

Thanks for the vid. I feel like the lore of fable has always been too often overlooked, considering the world building around it. It's awesome that someone is taking a closer look at it.

[@Skyrionn]

Couldn't agree more! Thanks for watching! I'll be right here as soon as the next Fable drops!

[@ChillShroomy]

@@Skyrionn I can't wait!

[@cyberman62]

I agree it has been a while! But so glad you're back I am fascinated by lore in games and I'm so very glad you made your Fable Lore series. Fable is a special game series to me and I'm so glad you do this to keep it alive Here's hoping for some Fable news soon

[@kydixes]

Amazing find! Have been playing the series for YEARS, yet this seems like one of the bigger secrets from the lore, and I've found out about it just now. Love your channel btw. Fable for life!

[@DeafCope]

Dear Skyrionn, Would you consider making a Fable 1&2&3 iceberg? There's one video of a fable 1 iceberg but not for 2 or 3. Id love to hear you narrate fable related content again. Much love

[@zakjumah]

I did already know about this, but more Fable content from you is always welcome. Also, I know for a fact that you can find the Albion Script in Fable 2 & 3.

[@Skyrionn]

Now I need to investigate. I didn't even think to check the other games. Could be another video :P

[@fable-frc1861]

You made a wonderful video! Very beautiful text visualization and cool presentation! I was glad to share you our find!

[@MikeWolfMan]

Always keeping Fable games fresh and interesting. Encouraging replays. Thank You.

[@l0mad642]

I always enjoy your content fable or not, thanks for all you do!

[@ruffianturnt2550]

This is pretty incredible lol. The maps have always been an interest to me. My question is why Fable lll map is so different from the first two. Maybe help us with that next?

[@Skyrionn]

I'll let you know when I know :P

[@danielcontreras6778]

Its flipped, the west is south in fable 3.

[@MoosenOggen4343]

I'm so happy to see that you have Fable content. I love this game so much, played TLC When I was like 12, and it was by far one of my most fav fantasy games.

[@andrewn8002]

I was wondering why the world of Fable 3 felt so damn different. Why Bower Lake was further south rather than to the west of Bowerstone. The world of Fable confuses me at times. lol

[@ivo]

No way you make HL lore AND Fable videos this is probably the first video I've ever seen exploring Fable ... damn insta sub

[@jetpoweredtricycle]

I haven't seen this mentioned yet but john speed was the name of an actual english cartogpraher from the 16th century

[@Skyrionn]

You seem to be the only one so far! I looked as much as I could inside of the game for the name. I didn't think to check our reality! haha

[@leviathan2679]

I don't know if it means anything but you can find these runes in the place where you find the shadow court in fable 2

[@pharaohsmagician8329]

Maybe of slight unrelated interest would be that the word "Archon" is an old Greek word for what is, in our understanding, a Politician, Office Holder, General, high ranking Statesman. The Historia Civilis video on Constitution of Athens is helpful. But that sort of can explain Fables old ancient Archons, great old fallen Kingdoms who once sent expeditions to Albion, which is another word irl used to call Britian. And using that we can then look up OLD maps of the world, there's a ton to choose from, but they are all very helpful to look at because we see lots of different interpretations of the World. Namely that Europe is placed in the middle of most maps, and the Americas are nowhere to be found. Sometimes the map is "upside down" with Asia or Africa at the top and Britian at the bottom, and the proportions for all countries are way off, and more used to describe things in theory or as the people of the time envisoned the world rather than a satellite view. If you look up such old maps you will see that the Fable Map is honestly quite realistic in terms of how maps would have been drawn by people in the past, and makes for a more fun Medieval Experience.

[@TheKpa11]

I question video game maps all the time, so I’ve just taken them until something major location comes up. Albion’s I took for what it was. Although it is rather odd that Albion’s is just like on edge of some bigger land of apparently lots of mountains And so to create lore around that, they made up some character who’s main drive to do this was locate brothels and cheat on his wife…………what a *hero*

[@invaded_space]

So happy to see another Fable video!

[@mcmason96]

After finally owning Anniversary on my One S I'm coming back to this channel to relearn and understand because I'm more used to 2 & 3 lol, I appreciate the amazing details and info from this channel ❤

[@SteveMcBucket]

Discovered you recently and been binging your videos. Cant wait for the new fable and all the lore it brings with🙏🙏

[@whooll]

Ohhhhh more fable?! Yaaaaaaassss!! I mean to be fair to you I don't know anyone that covers fable any where near to the level you do lol. And you've been the only place I've actually been able to learn something new from about the lore whatsoever lol so there's no pressure, at least from me (lol) This video, again, is another drop of lore I wasn't aware of lol I greatly appreciate it brother

[@Skyrionn]

I'm glad I can still help. I'm hoping to get more stuff like this out. Thanks for watching!

[@Slop_Dogg]

Happy to see a new vid from you!

[@Skyrionn]

Thank ye! I do post every week but not Fable too often

[@AJThirdStreet]

Hiiii, so I have a quick theory/question so in fable 2 there's a map in Lucien's study (when u own the castle) and there's some text that seems to be the same as these runes on it, is there anything to decipher there?

[@Skyrionn]

Something to look into I guess ☺

[@AJThirdStreet]

@@Skyrionn Thanks!!!

[@KenRyu-MinSwag9388]

OMG, thank you for the new Fable video. Great job!

[@Skyrionn]

Thanks for watching!

[@LoveToSpootch]

Great video, and thanks for translating the text ^^

[@aviinl]

I might be having a very weird DejaVu moment here, but as you were telling the story as written on the map, I seem to recall the.. well, story.. If I'm not mistaken, there is a quest or some reference to this story, I remember something about a correlation between the map and "brothels". Perhaps it's described in a different/later version of Fable? Or I'm just going mad.

[@ethanisnotsleeping]

So idk what relevance it is but John Speed was a real life Cartographer who lived between 1551-1629

[@Skyrionn]

It seems he was! I've learned something too!

[@RabidNemo]

This is really incredible! I've been replaying anniversary and was just thinking to myself I wonder if the map translates to something or if it's just gibberish

[@barrybend7189]

I wish we could get Fable 2 with all DLC Included on steam/PC and a fixed port of Fable 3 with free to grab DLC.

[@supermaster2012]

Fable's not really my cup of tea but I'll still drop by to give a thumbs up and an algorithm engaging comment to my beloved Welsh Ichthyosaur.

[@Skyrionn]

This is my favourite comment this week.

[@karmitdafruge1]

Long time no see skyrionn! I love your fable videos

[@jaxgrey4877]

Ive been waiting for another fable video

[@Exlaax]

Always wondered why barrow fields were right outside oalvale even as a kid

[@eugenemonti5755]

Yay another fable vid 😍

[@Skyrionn]

Yay! Hope you enjoyed it

[@insanejughead]

Yes! I got here (almost) as soon as this video dropped! Popcorn is ready! Let's go!

[@Skyrionn]

6pm every Wednesday for a new video :D I'm hoping to do more Fable too

[@akshaaynair7912]

Great vid sky, nice to see Chad again

[@Skyrionn]

Had to get him in there somehow haha

[@BLTS147]

John Speed is a direct distant grandfather of mine on the 5th branch. I have a first edition John Speed map of Nottingham in my front room

[@kileysevens9116]

Ahhh finally some fable stuff. I'm so happy lol

[@Mirai_Kennedy]

Wow new fable video ☺

Hey hey

[@stevenwagner983]

Love fable!! I'm part of the "cartography guild" IRL

[@TheJcjonesacp]

Wow I love fable’s lore so much!

[@Skyrionn]

same!

[@TheJcjonesacp]

@@Skyrionn need more fable honestly I miss that game so much, a fable 2 and 3 for pc remaster or rerelease

[@lsthero5863]

Maybe “terror incognito” (unknown fear) is in fact “terra incognita”, which means unknown land, which is a commonly used term in maps

[@tormund8554]

Finally a Fable video

[@Skyrionn]

I'll post more when I can :D

[@drpeel4913]

Found this content due to having questions about the fable lore and got hooked I never realised William Black is Scythe. I did have a question not sure if there is any information on it because I can't find any. Captain Saker from fable 3 how does he use magic he doesn't appear to be wearing those magic gauntlets and the game seems to suggest. The hero of Brightwall is the last hero

[@killergandalf]

I Remember that in the prologue of Fable 2, on the glass that your Hero Smash, when shot by lucien, there Is a coded message with the Fable runes. If i Remember correctly, the picture on the glass Is One of the archons and the message was: "Albion Rex WNT" (Rex Is latin for king while WNT means "Windows new technology" aka Microsoft). So the true ruler of Albion Is Microsoft because at the time lionhead was a Microsoft studio

[@TheMetalHeadbangger]

Wuhuuu! New fable video

[@Skyrionn]

Welcome back!

[@alexanderg8466]

Is there a full map of albion.?. I would like to download it

[@Zack0Amizuki]

sand fury lore would be nice

[@BCc249]

Great game! Don't like how they changed the magic system so far though. Last time u used to be able to press magic trigger and 3 buttons would come up to use for magic choices now I only get 1 at a time :/. Does this change or am I playing it wrong. I'm playing on steam with a ps 4 controller so if I'm missing buttons I'd like to know lol

[@CyanEyed07]

I think I might have noticed similar text on the TLC version of the map, though I may be mistaken, and don't currently have access to my computer to check.

[@Skyrionn]

Lemme check... Nah, cant see it. It may have been in the game somewhere? But I can't find it unfortunately.

[@aerialmacaroon6312]

You made a Theory awhile back about jack turning the undead into the hollow men but would that imply we gave into his temptations in lost chapters

[@randyortonsbulge]

This is my favorite subject how the map and why it changed

[@omegaarms4287]

This is awesome 👌

[@stanleykassim2839]

Also, the text is backwards. It looks like a mirror image of a letter.

[@lyinlion7q419]

i mean the maps are still fairly similar looking at real life evolution of maps, you can see where lots of places were the same, peninsulas rivers,

[@kingpaddy9009]

It's insane, that Microsoft still not have published a Fable 2 remaster for the PC. It's like that they don't want earn money.

[@omegaarms4287]
