Fable III – Logan's tale continues

Not many people realized Logan and his Elite Soldiers part in the battle for Albion, but as the new king fought his way to the Crawler in Old Town, Logan covered the rest of Bowerstone.

The inhabitants of Albion had as good as forgotten the old king and his wrongdoings. That is until Logan's brother started to have his own evil ways, slowly but surly after putting down 'General Turners uprising' the new king became corrupt.

Thats normal for a monarch you would think, but Logan's brother's corruption knew no bounds, he raised the taxes through the roof, people who opposed him disappeared and he started to take on a more darker side of his will powers. He became able to sprout devil wings at will.

In the eye of the people, it wasn't a Hero who replaced a tyrant, but a demon replacing a rather stressed king.

Logan was standing down the stairs leading up to the throne room having a chat with one of the palace guards when suddenly he heared a dark voice originating from the throne room: "Hobson, how dare you insult my person, I pay you more then enough, this is the last time you asked for another pay-raise!"

"O-of course your majesty, I won't bother you any longer"

"And I will make dam sure of it"

Suddenly, the light coming from the throne room was blocked, the next moment the palace seemed to shake on its foundries, and coming after that, Hobson flew out of the throne room, flew through the wall and onto the palace frontal yard.

Logan ran out to check on Hobson, but to no avail. Every bone broken (pulverized is a better word)

Hobson was stone-dead.

"LOGAN" the voice from the throne room thundered. Logan hurried up the stairs in his regal outfit and stood before his brother who was wearing a more military version of the king suit with the Royal Crown being displayed proudly on his head.

"yes my brother?"Logan asked straightforward. "Be on your place Logan, I am your king, thus you will speak with me AS I AM YOUR SUPERIOR!" the King's hand became shrouded in shadows which the king used to lash out at Logan.

Logan held his upper arm upright, lightning started to form around it as he blocked his brothers attack. Logan had some training in his will powers as well, but because Logan's power wasn't yet fully awakened, it had cost him years to master the very basic principles of the powers of Will.

The King wasn't amused and kicked Logan right in his chest which sended Logan flying for at least 3 meters before he smacked against the floor. "I was going to ask for a simple military report, but even that is asked to much, guards, escort my brother to his chambers".

2 guards helped the moaning Logan to stand up and helped him to his chambers, the same chamber from his brother in the time his brother as still the prince.

12 Elite Soldiers guarded the entrance, all were still incredibly loyal to Logan.

Logan sat down at his sofa at the window overlooking the Royal gardens and started thinking: "How ironic, the very chamber in which my brother started his revolutionary adventure to relieve Albion from a tyrant. Albion does need a central figure, and it isn't my brother. I inherited this kingdom from my father, even Theresa confirmed this, and she used me as pawn and replaced me with my brother!"

Logan slammed his fist against his chess table and then ran to his closet, he opened it and saw his Royal Field Marshall uniform. It looked exactly alike a normal Elite soldier uniform, except that it was Royal Blue in color and had a cape piece taken from his father's knothole armor. The cape too was painted a Royal Blue and had still had the Knothole Crest on it.

Logan looked at the Uniform, took the helm and looked at it, then he looked at his guards.

His guards didn't take long to realize what he was planning and they started packing everything essential for what would become the greatest voyage in Albion's history.
