This quest consists of the hero warping to various areas of Albion in a race to stop Jack of Blades from reactivating an ancient power from the Old Kingdom. Along the way the hero witnesses Jack's creatures engaged in a massive battle with the heroes of the Heroes' Guild and the guards from all around Albion. Whenever one side is defeated, reinforcements spawn to take their place, so trying to wipe out all the enemies is futile. Jack's army is composed of Minions, screamers, and the Undead, all of the evil and unnatural creatures.

During this constant battle, the hero encounters Briar Rose and Thunder whom he fights alongside. If you are playing the original Fable then this is the only time you will see Briar Rose's fighting style. Through the entire quest the sky is blood red. As he fights his way through the legions of minions, the hero is mocked by Jack who says that this bloodshed is only the beginning of his "new world."

[edit] Walkthrough

The first area you go to is Greatwood where you find Briar Rose and she helps you take out some of the minions here. When you get to the focus site, you will see Jack of Blades. After he has opened a portal you will run through it. (Note: there may be another bit before you reach the next section)

Next you'll be in Hobbe cave. Head towards the focus chamber and on the way there you meet Thunder, who helps you here. When you get to the focus chamber, Jack is there and he opens another portal, like the one before.

Once you run through the portal, You will end up at Headsman's Hill, or near that area. go to the top of the hill and go into Gibbet Woods. In there go right on the pathway and you will find the last focus site where and you will see Jack holding your mother, Scarlet Robe. You then teleport to the Guild.

When you reach the Guild, it is burning and you will find the Guildmaster laying injured in the library. He tells you to go into the Chamber of Fate and defeat Jack of Blades. He also says amusing things if you put an arrow in between his eyes.
