The Enlightened was an order of great seers, sorcerers and followers of the Three Heroes of old, Sol, Blaze, and Stone, and are a center point in Fable: The Journey.
Lore[]
Background[]
At the edge of the Old Kingdom, his trio of Heroes stopped an ancient evil from entering Albion from The Void by destroying the first Spire, but as they coudn't properly kill it, they sealed it away in a temple in the desert; such creature would be finally defeated for good centuries later by the Hero of Brightwall.
Unfortunately, the resulting explosion of the Spire destroyed the Old Kingdom and condensed the three Heroes' essences into Willstones. Their followers, the Enlightened, were eventually able to gather the Willstones, which contained the heroe's powers crystalised. After their leader, a great seer, foretold a time when the hero bloodlines would fade, leading to a time where there would be no more heroes left to protect Albion from corruption.
Realizing that the power of the Three Heroes would be needed again, the Enlightned stored the Willstones in three temples scattered across northern Albion and the Edgelands, untill someone, worthy enough was found to wield them. A fourth temple, would be also constructed to protect the magic gauntlets the Enlightened fashioned to allow the chosen one to properly wield the power of the heroes.
Not only the Enlightened dedicated their lifes on building the temples, but after death, the spirits of selected members would be ordered to watch over the Willstones, willing to help those worthy who sought the treasure within.
