The Wolf Among Us Episode 2: 5 Questions We Want Answered

5. Sealed Lips

Faith is easily one of the most intriguing characters in the game, primarily because there€™s so much about her shrouded in mystery alongside being killed off 20 minutes into the episode. That€™s also part of what makes the game so gripping too; that lingering feeling that any character can die at any time. In Faith€™s case it€™s much more perplexing because she€™s set up as a love interest. The beginning of the game has you defending her from the drunken and abusive Woodsman, and once dealt with sets up an extensive dialogue sequence. Some of the dialogue really leaves you left in the dark though to the point where it feels like Faith is hiding something. Every time Bigby asks a question he€™s met with the same eerie response of €œThese lips are sealed€. It€™s very hard to discern what is happening or why things are happening but Faith insists she€™s answering the questions to the best of her abilities. Even stranger is that the comment comes after randomly asking Bigby if he likes her ribbon, which coincidentally has lipstick indentations on it if you observe closely. I can€™t say for certain if there€™s a connection but another mysterious aspect involves the Magic Mirror reciting the same "These lips are sealed" line when asking it about Faith. The obvious question is who enchanted Faith and why.
