Oh, my wife is giving me weapons. Too bad they're obsidian (which are, I guess, inherently evil) and I'm the overly sweet and good guy.

They make me good monies though.

I only died in the arena during the bandit portion. But luckily, I had about 12 reserection whatevers so I made it out of there...barely, and bought all the potions the vender had.

The Hobbe's Cave quest, where you save the old woman's kid, can be challenging. I never said it was hard, just not tremendously easy as so many reviewers have made it out to be. I was under the impression that it would be Wind Waker easy.

I'm on the quest right now where youi have to kieep the bandit prisoner from escaping, and its giving me fits. Not only are the bandits no joke, but the damn prisoner keeps getting in the way and I end up killing him with one errant shot!

Also, I made sure that I increased the difficulty level for myself by making sure I am a meleee warrior only. All my experience goes into the Strength category and a little into "speed", This seems to make many of the enemies and quests much moere challenging, especially those giggling little fairies that fly all over the place summoning creatures and shooting crap at you.

Next time through I'm going to do it as a straight up sorceror.

I'm at that part, too. I've only tried it once (killed the prisoner).

That's the quest where I had to use a couple of ressurection phials

I'm at the arena quest, not sure how far I am in the game story-wise. My character is 59 years old now, got 12 hours clocked in the game so far, 90% of my time is spent doing stuff that I just feel like doing. I barely do any main quests at all, and I'm not the least bit bored.

I have some questions that might extend into spoiler territory.

So...

You've been warned...

Anyway...

There's a subquest to get Lady Grey to marry your character. I'm at this part. However, I do not wish to marry Lady Grey for two reasons:

1) I'm already married and I don't need to two [bad word] fawning over me and giving me crap presents (and one of them yelling at me for cheating)
2) Lady Grey killed her sister. I don't dig murderous chicks (I will next time, though )

Now, this would mean I probably shouldn't do the quest and marry Lady Grey. However, I have been given reason to believe that this quest may or may not end in me exposing Lady Grey for the evil evil woman that she is and gaining more fame and renown and goodness, etc. But I'm not sure and I don't want to end up with divorce and then marriage so...

Has anyone done this quest and know whether I can choose to expose or marry Lady Grey? And if I can expose her, can you tell me how to get the two guys in the Oakvale Memorial Garden to stop whispering behind my back and tell me where the friggin' necklace is?

I heard that you just need to sneak around them and listen to their conversation. They will let it out eventually between themselves.

Just thought I'd say this... Fable has now entered my top 10 list of favourite games. I love this game. I knew very little about the game before I bought it and it has blown me away.

You might wanna marry Lady Grey, theres a silver key and a silver key chest in her room which you can only get by marrying her. If you don't like her you can always divorce later.

But I've heard that divorce = major evil points. And I'm the upstanding halo over the head good guy.

And I like that....

Although the mayor might be able to give me some better stuff than my cheap slut of a wife O_o

Hrrmm....

Do you know what's in the silver chest in her room? If it's the legendary katana I'll have no choice but to marry her
