Welcome to Version Mega of this guide, the reason behind the naming is to 
celebrate well over 1,000,000 hits my guide reached on GameFAQ's alone in March 
2009. Thank you for all of your support, and enjoy the future.

Hundreds of years ago, the tribe from Knothole Glade discovered the existence
of an island far off the mainland said to offer its inhabitants full control
over their weather. Tired of constant Balverine attacks and damp, dreary
weather, the tribe elders decided they would find this mythic island and settle
there. The ancient civilization who originally lived on the island created the
magical artifacts that control the weather, and hid them in dangerous caves so
that their warriors would be tested every year.

Melee combat relies on strength and makes uses of weapons such as the Sword,
Cutglass, Katana, and Cleaver. Ranged combat is about skill and dexterity, uses
Pistols, Crossbows, and Rifles. Magic; however, focusses on Willpower and there
are nearly infinite possibilities presented to the Hero who can control their
ability.

Although your character doesn't have much, if any, dialogue. There
are still hundreds of NPC's in Albion you can interact with by use of
experessions. Each of these NPC's have a different personality and may react to
your expressions uniquely.

Each NPC has a favourite gift, place, and expression that they like to see;
they also have one of each that they dislike. Keep in mind that these NPC's are
dynamic, so spamming their favourite expression will nor always yield  the best
results.

         | [XP.AP]        Experience, Renown, Alignment              |
         |___________________________________________________________|

Experience is divided into four categories: Strength, Skill, and Will are
the foundation of your character and have their own pools of abilities that you
can train under the categories. You can combine any of the main three
categories with the fourth, General. As you level your character s/he will 
begin to age.

Reputation is earned in the form of renown points, you can gain renown from
jobs around the towns or completing some of the side quests in Albion. You will
need to reach a certain level of renown points in order to progress through the
main story.

Corruption, evil, purity, and good. These will be affected by choices you make 
during the story and many actions you do such as shop markup value and rent 
prices.

Upon downloading the Knothole Island downloadable content you will be prompted
with a new quest, to begin travel to Bowerstone Market and follow the golden
trail down to the docks. Speak to Gordon and he will offer gifts from the
Island in exchange for you to go investigate and you will recieve [ONE BURNED
CALORIE POTION] [SOLAR SHIELDING SPECTACLES] [KNOTHOLE ISLAND VOL I] [ASSASIN
GLOVES] [KNOTHOLE ISLAND BOOTS].

When you arrive to Knothole Island go speak to the Chieftain in his office,
your objected now is to go to the shrine and dig up the Ice Key. On your way to
the shrine you will encounter some Shadow Creatures and a few Ice Beetles.

NOTE: If you find Knothole Island to be too bright and it is difficult to     
 follow the golden trail, go into the options section of the pause menu      
and reduce the brightness.

At the end up the golden trail youe dog will find a dig spot, or it will be
circled for you. Dig to find the [ICE KEY]. Turn around and make your way down
the path. You will encounter a Banshee on a large frozen lake. If you can't
remember form before how to take it down, kill the Shadow Children that is
summons then hack and slash at it before more appear. You can also place a well
aimed shot to the head. Continue past the river and up the trail, where you
will climb a mountain and reach the door of the Ice Shrine. Use the Ice Key to
unlock.

In the Shrine you will shortly face a group of Hobbes, who have made a rather
cute little village with igloos and snowmen. At the end of this area is a break
in the ground where you have to vault down into what I can only assume is very
cold water. Swim up but don't climb the stairs just yet, there is a dive spot
to your left and around the corner. Now you are ready to go up the stairs and 
emerge from the water,

Pull the lever in front of you to burn the block of ice blocking your path. Go 
to the right and the gate will slam shut and Shadow Creatures will come, kill 
them and go across the room through the other door. Go down the stairs into 
another room where you will find a flit switch. This is a sequence switch, 
remember that blue is melee, yellow is ranged, and red is will. The switch will 
relay from the other side of the room and back and land of different spots on 
the floor. Activate it in this order:

Melee
Ranged
Will
Melee
Will
Ranged
Melee
Will
Ranged
Melee
Melee

This should unlock the rest of the room for you. Go over to the other side and
pull the lever, which again melts the block of ice. Return to the large room by
going back up the stairs, here you will engage some more Shadow Creatures. Once
you have killed them go through the doorway on the other side of the room. Down
the tunnel you will approach another electric fence and four more switches. 
Before you do anything there is some ice on the right side ledge, break this 
and vault down. From here  go head and pull the lever to burn some ice, then 
straight ahead where you will find a ladder. Climb up and break the ice next to 
your, then retrieve the [KNOTHOLE ISLAND VOL. II] and vault back down to where 
you started. Now for the switches, you can either hit the far left one and then 
the one beside it or just use a quick Time Control spell to warp through the 
barriers.

Return to the large room and face some more Shadow Creatures, when you kill
them all the block of ice on the platform in the middle will melt, unveiling
a...lever. This one will melt some more ice, hurray! Go down the path and
remember to open up the treasure chests that you melted. The first will have
[BANDIT GLOVES] and the second holds [KNOTHOLE ISLAND TROUSERS].

This next area will easily make you forget that you are on a frozen island,
when you enter you will be greated more some more Shadows, more of these
resemble Balverines now. When you kill the all off there will be a spot on the
right side where you can vault down. Go down there and before going through the 
tunnel look to your right and walk along the edge to a treasure chest with 
[FEEBLE SCAR VANISHING POTION], now go back and activate the Sun Totem.

When you come back you will be in what seems to be a tropical paradise, is this
the same Knothole Island you once knew?  You may now continue down the path, 
and when you reach a large tower walk around it where you will find [KNOTHOLE 
ISLAND, VOL VII]. Just before the water there is also a little area you can go 
to on the left where there is a chest.

Continue down the dry path, you should now recognize this area as the once
frozen river of Knothole Island. When you reach the bridge (above you) go up a
small path to your left where you can find [KNOTHOLE ISLAND, VOL VI] behind
some stairs. Continue up the path and into the Cheiftain's office.

These people seem to love to complain. When you complete 'Knothole Island's Big
Freeze' return to Bowerstone and a new quest will come up. From there travel
back to Knothole, you can do this via fast travel now. Speak to the Chieftain
once again. He send you to dig up the Sun Key. Make your way and follow the
trail, when you come to a spot just around the canyon where there are two 
boulders on either side of the path, stop. There might be a Hobbe or two around 
here so kill them and walk around the boulder to your right. Your dog, assuming 
it is with you, should have found a dig spot. If this is true then look around 
the trees in the forest here behind the boulder and you should see [KNOTHOLE 
ISLAND VOL V]. Continue down the path to some ruins where you can dig the Sun 
Key.

Down the path a bit more is a small grave site, you can find [KNOTHOLE ISLAND 
VOL VIII] behind one of the headstones. Trace yourself back down the dried up 
river to a tower where you once collected a Knothole volume. Use the Sun Key on 
the door to unlock the Sun Shrine.

When inside the Shrine go down the spiral stairs, when you reach the bottom
there is a chest of your left containing [KNOTHOLE BLUE DYE]. Walk into the
room with the flit switch, before doing anything open the chest next to it. 
This switch has two parts, stand in the black circle and shoot it, then look to 
your right and hit it with your sword. It will go over to the door on the other 
side and open it. Inside is an expression statue, use the chicken expression to 
unlock it. Shoot the switch that appears then run back to the door you came 
from and hit it.

The next door should open, revealing another statue. This one is the laughing
expression, and when you do that use a spell on the switch, hit it from the
door you came from, and then shoot it in front of the door on the left. This
will open the next door in front of you. Down the stairs here and to your right
is another chest that is tucked away.

On the other side of the hill in this next area is a serious swarm of Beetles.
They are still fairly easy to kill though. Once you have taken care of the
continue down through the next room. Open the chest in here for your [FLAME'S
CURSE AUGMENT]. Slowly make your way to the room filled with water, don't walk
to far in though because a ton of spikes are about to fly up and hit the switch
for you. Quickly turn around and shoot the switch and go back to the other area
and shoot it twice more.

Go across the room and up the stairs where you will meet another switch, use
skill, strength, and will to unlock the door. Before you enter though open the
chest on the path. You'll fight some Hobbes in this next area,
which shouldn't be a problem since there aren't many of them. Up towards the
left of this area is a small Hobbe settlement with a chest just before the
cage, this chest has [KNOTHOLE KNIGHT SHIRT]. Also in this area is the lever
you need to use to open the gate. 

There are more Hobbes here in the next room, there should also be some boxes
next to the entrace. Behind these boxes is a pressure plate. Go ahead and step
on it to open the door. Before you continue there is a breakable spot in the 
wall, hit it and get the [KNOTHOLE ISLAND VOL III]. Follow the path and open 
the chest. Go down the stairs and through the door into an area where you will 
have to swim. On the east side of this room is a dive spot, check it out and 
continue.

Go up the stairs and there will be lots of fire here you want to avoid. The
first part is the fire coming from the ceiling, when it stops step on the
pressure plate then get off before it comes back. This open the gate next to
you, in here use the level and the switch will take off. Turn around and shoot
the switch behind the barrier. Now you obviously have to wait until the fire is
gone, you have a short amount of time to sprint through each little section,
avoid the middle because fire will go there too. When you get to a doorway on
your right use the lever to open another gate and spot the fire.

Step on the pressure plate as you walk through, and open the chest in the foyer
for [KNOTHOLE KNIGHT GAUNTLETS]. In the next area you will have to fight off
two waves of Hollow Men. Kill them and use the Storm Totem.

You will be transported yet again, around the curve in the path is [KNOTHOLE
ISLAND VOL IX] behind a some ruins. Go down the path and dive into the water,
and to your right here is a dive spot next to a building with [KNOTHOLE DARK
RED DYE]. Swim across the lake to the Chieftain's office, and speak to the man
who has saved the island once again.

Incase you didn't notice a pattern, it looks like whatever you do you do too
well and it destroys the island. Go back and speak to the Chieftain again for
your quest. According to the Chieftain, the Storm Key is burried somewhere over
'there', and by 'there' we can assume down the path and across the new river
adjacent to where we found the Sun Key.

Follow the golden trail to a cliff and swim to your right from there, when you 
see a path look to your right in the water for a dive spot. Once you have 
grabbed this go open the chest and continue up the hill and dig up the key. 
From here go back down and swim across to another trail, down here you will 
meet a pair of Balverines. Once you have taken the lap through the village swim 
across the lake. Either way go up the trail and kill the handful of Hobbes 
waiting for you just before the Storm Shrine entrance. Next to the waterfall on 
your left is another dive spot.

Once inside the Shrine go ahead and look behind some pillars in the ground for 
[KNOTHOLE ISLAND VOL IV], now go through the cave and up a flight of stairs. 
Ahead of you is a flit switch guarded by Shadow Creatures. Once you have killed 
them hit the flit switch, follow it to your right and kill any enemies then hit 
it again. This time it will open a room with more enemies, once you hace 
cleared this area out hit the switch again and open the chest in the room that 
has [KNOTHOLE KNIGHT ARMOUR]. Once you exit this room take an immediate left 
and go around the path and up the stairs to get to the next switch, vault down 
and shoot it from below.

Now follow it to an area you passed by earlier. Kill the enemies here and hit
the switch, open the chest. Now go back and kill any remaining Shadow Creatures 
then make your way up the stairs. Hit the switch to unlock the door and vault 
down the hole in the floor.

When you land, turn around and swim through a door and get the [UNTAPPED
POTENTIAL AUGMENT] from the dive spot. Go back and swim under the waterfall and
walk up the stairs into the next room. In here is a hidden door to your right.
Hit it with your switch to break it down and grab the [HIGH-HEELS HEIGHT
POTION] from the chest. When you try go through the next door you will be
stopped by a single wave of Hollow Men and a Champion, take care of them and
continue.

When you get into the room with gears look to your left for a chest with
[KNOTHOLE GREEN DYE] in it and continue across the room and up the ladder. Up
top is a switch, hit it and keep doing so as you vault from platform to
platform. When it goes into a vent go back down to the main floor and hit it
again, then shoot it and it will lead you to a gate. Go through here and keep
an eye out for a chest in a dark area above the stairs, it has a [ENERGY DRAIN
AUGMENT].

Next climb up the ladder, and if you would like to see something weird take an 
immediate right and walk through the wall. There is some beef jerky in this 
room, nothing special though just interesting. Walk back and to the 
intersection and kill the Hollow Men that appear and continue straight. When 
you reach a room with water go to the next door and turn around to find a 
switch. This one is about timing and I found it easiest to use Raise Dead as my 
will ability. So as fast as possible, Ranged, Will, Ranged, Ranged, Will. When 
the door is unlocked enter and use the lever.

Backtrack to the intersection and take a left this time. I never quite got
these next switches, just stand at the locked door and shoot or use a spell
depending on the colour of the switch the pops up. It didn't take too long for
the door to open for me. Go inside the hall and use the lever at the end, then
go back to the intersection and kill the Banshee. Proceed straight through the
unlocked entrance, open up the chest for [KNOTHOLE ISLAND HELMET]. From here
aim for one of the exploding barrels and shot, this will blow away the door.
Proceed to meet with a troll, you've probably dealt with a few trolls before
but this one didn't seem so hard. It is easy if you spam blades and have your
sword out so you can run fast, remember that you are slower with a gun out.

Once the troll is dead a door will unlock, continue through the door and down
the tunnel and activate the Ice Totem. You will appear again at a marker. This
time you will be greeted by a Banshee. Once you have taken care of the Banshee,
there is a large rock off to the right of where you began which is hiding
[KNOTHOLE ISLAND VOL X] behind it. Meet the Chieftain once more, this time he 
isn't in his office.

From here you have the choice to join Jessica or the Chieftain, the Chieftain
offers 10,000 gold, but he is kind of a dick. Your call.

If you followed this guide you should now have the achievement for completing 
the three quests along with an achievement for collecting all ten Knothole 
history books, which you can read over any time from your inventory.

         |                                                           |
         | [TK.FC]               Cheet-Ur's Crypt                    |
         |___________________________________________________________|

This crypt is located just north of the Chieftain's office in the middle of the 
grave. A note outside will let you know that the powerful mage 'Cheet-Ur' is 
very fond of dogs, and his crypt is to aid anybody who has lost a four-legged 
friend.

Yes, that does mean that you can get your dog back if it is gone, the catch is 
that there must be a human sacrifice. If you do this after completing any of 
the Knothole Island quests it isn't hard to get an NPC to follow you, they all 
love you! 

NOTE: I did this first on my good and pure character and sacrificing a villager 
      didn't have any affect on my moral standing.

Bring an NPC to the crypt, in this case I brought I woman that was in love with 
me, and the doors of the crypt should open as long as they are following you. 
Lead them into the crypt, or wait for them to enter themselves, and pull the 
lever outside to kill them. When they are dead the doors will open and a 
familiar dog face will be staring back at you.

When you get your dog back the first dig spot he will find is just outisde the 
crypt in front of the note, you can dig up a [BOW WOW COLLAR] here.

[05.00]                    FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS 
  
�������������������������������������������������������������������������������
Q. THE NEXT QUEST IN 'KNOTHOLE ISLAND' WILL NOT UNLOCK FOR ME, WHAT GIVES?

A. When I wrote this guide all of my characters had completed the main story, 
so what part of the main storyline you have to be at for the quests I did not 
mention. However, you must complete the main story before starting the last 
quest of this content. If any quest doesn't come up for you simply progress 
through the game.

Q. I'VE DISCOVERED AN ERROR IN YOUR GUIDE, OR HAVE SOMETHING TO ADD.

A. Feel free to email me [[email protected]] and I will credit you if I use 
your information. This is not my personal email so please allow some time for a 
response.

Q. I ADDED YOU AS FRIEND, WHY DON'T YOU HAVE HALF OF THE FABLE 2 ACHIEVEMENTS?

A. I have two Xbox Live accounts, one I play when I'm writing and don't want to 
be bothered with friend requests and invites. Also, when writing for games I 
tend to play with at least two different files and never do everything on both, 
leaving me with half completion on either save.
