I'm kidding of course.

I believe Aurora is the name of the child.

God, I hope not. I'm kinda sick of parallel worlds, too.

I was thinking a sister, but really, if you go find the cutscene on Youtube it doesn't sound like that much.

Yeah, I'm going with landmass, planet, or neighboring country.

Samarkand, I assume you mean? Going from the real place called Samarkand (and, as I remember, the fact that katanas came from there), I'd say it's less Africa than it is Africa/Russia/Asia all thrown together.

And Albion isn't so much Europe and it's not at all America. It's the UK. Exhibit A: Fable 1 Union Flag underoos.

But yeah, I definitely want to see the wider world.

I do think it's the planet/world.

But just as an interesting thought, it could be something to do with the spire. I mean, i hope we get to see some kind of progression from Theresa taking the spire.

Maybe the spire's power is Aurora, or perhaps a name for the spire itself?

Ah, I don't mind it. I loved it in the "His Dark Materials" series. But it just wouldn't work in the "Fable" world. I don't think anyway...

Though Theresa was quick to point out that the baby was the Ruler's child, if Aurora was the child's sister it would be another child of the ruler, in which case Theresa would have probably said "their other child" or some such. It seems odd to identify one as a child and then another by name and leave it at that.

Yeh sorry your right, i posted that in a rush. Why do you see Asia and Russia. I guess the katana's but i think Samarkland will not be that multi-cultural, mixed races. I am thinking the asian cuisine, architecture and clothing will appear in another continent. Also it would be nice if the immigrants to Albion, would wear cloathing from there culture

It's two countries noobzzzzzzzz!!!!!!!!!

Albion & Aurora!

Look up "Samarkand" on Wikipedia. Okay, fine, I'll do it for you. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samarkand It's in Uzbekistan, formerly part of the USSR. Since "Albion" is a name for a real place and is very similar to a real place, I can only assume that Samarkand is also inspired by the real place from whence it gets its name.
