Fable: The Axe and Scottman – Wes Green

Blurb + Author

Fable: The Axe and Scottman tells the perilous origin story of Kingsley Scott and his journey to become a legendary Hero of strength. The story is a piece of creative fan fiction based around the period of time of the original video game Fable Created by those lovely people at Lionhead studios. It is centred on a noble family "The Scott's" that at the time had a large control of most of the farming areas and small villages north of one of Albion's busiest towns.

It is designed to recreate some of the writing styles and stir up some similar emotions to the original video game series. Hopefully, the story is a great tribute to the world and characters of Albion. I think it should be!

Kingsley Scott is a character I've made up for the role play section of the Lionhead forum. The more I play the character the more back story I seem to be "Inventing" for him in my head. So I decided to write it! Why not eh?

I'm new to writing. I have done a few short fable stories which can be found on the "Fan Creations" section on the Lionhead forums. I am a very scientific and factual person so becoming "Creative" doesn't really come naturally for me (But I'm enjoying trying!). Currently, I'm employed by a major pharmaceutical support company as a Microbiology Lab Manager (yawn….boring…). This story will be done in my spare time. I should drip feed in chapters here and there when I can….Hell I may even do some drawings to add an extra layer into the story (I do drawings too!)

As ever with all my stories I cannot guarantee that

1) Spelling and grammar will be great and

2) That the story will win any awards.

What I can guarantee is:

A story of tragedy, courage, love, sacrifices and humour a wait you. Welcome back to the time of the legendary heroes guild. From Hollomen to Hobbes. From the busy hustle and bustle of Bowerstone to the picturesque serenity of Oakvale. Welcome back to the land of Heroes and Villains.

Welcome back to Albion.
