The Wolf Among Us: 10 Most Harrowing Decisions We Had To Make

7. Lying To Beast

Beauty and Beast may have the longest relationship of all the residents in Fabletown but its a strained one, to say the least. Beauty is the first to appear in the Wolf Among Us, making a suspicious appearance late at night outside the Woodlands. She then leaves without specifying what she's up to, instead asking Bigby to tell Beast he hasn't seen her. Of course, Bigby runs into Beast just a few minutes later and can either lie or tell him the truth about seeing Beauty. Either way, the couple's story continues in Episode Two - "Smoke and Mirrors" - where Bigby learns that Beauty's secret is her job as a clerk at a hotel in order to help pay the couple's bills. She wishes to keep it a secret from Beast (who works several jobs to help pay the couple's debts) to help him keep his pride. While being shown around the hotel (where a murder occurred), Beast shows up and accuses Beauty of having an affair with Bigby. A brawl then ensues which is settled when the two bust a door open and stumble upon the bloody murder scene. The consequences of lying to Beast are actually a bit of a let down in the end; in Episode Four your lies to Beast have turned him cold and aggressive towards you, but if you told him the truth, Beauty will be reluctant to talk instead. Still, the game's exploration of one of Fables' most well known couples is a crowd pleaser and it underlines just how well the Fables universe takes classic characters and stories before twisting them on their head.
