'''See the Future''' is the second [[Fable II Downloadable Content|downloadable content]] pack for ''[[Fable II]]''.

Those who emerge victorious will receive the ultimate reward: a quest that provides a vision of Albion's future and what lies ahead for those born into the heroic bloodline. The fantastical new quests in "See the Future" will bring players face-to-face with new characters, creatures, events and legendary artifacts!

== Story ==

{{spoilers}}

The story of the DLC starts with the Hero meeting [[Murgo]], the trader in [[Bowerstone Market]]. This is the same Murgo who sold you the music box as a child. He greets you and immediately recognizes you, and offers to sell you more curiosities, promising to sell you a very special one that can supposedly tell the future once his mysterious supplier delivers it (the supplier is later revealed to be [[Theresa]]).

=== The Snowglobe ===
{{Main|The Snowglobe (Quest)}}
The first item is a cursed [[snowglobe]] which you are able to activate. Using the snowglobe transports the Hero to a village devoid of colour, except for red, blue and yellow on certain items. The Hero will have to explore the village and surrounding area, fight new monsters, rescue the villagers and return colour to the land, thereby lifting the curse.

=== The Skull ===
{{Main|The Costume Party}}
After returning from the Snowglobe, Murgo offers the Hero his newest item, a cursed golden [[Cursed Skull|skull]], which leads to the Costume Party quest (listed as ''The Cursed Knight'' on Lionhead's official site). When you use the skull, you are teleported to an area called the [[Celestial Keep]], where you are immediately seen by a possessed skull tomb. He claims he was once a valiant knight that was cursed by a [[necromancer]] and is now imprisoned in the tomb. The Hero is given the quest to free the cursed knight. The area provides interesting interactions with statues and the opportunity to collect unique outfits to wear.

=== The Vision ===
{{Main|The Vision}}
A brief glimpse into the future. [[Murgo]] gives you a Spire Model. Using it takes you back to the center of the [[Spire]] to talk to [[Theresa]]. She offers you a sight into the future of Albion. In it you are the ruler of Albion. This vision will change slightly, depending on whether you are good or evil. The outcome will still be the same at the end. Theresa stands next to [[Hero of Brightwall|an infant]] in a cradle, saying that the fate of future [[Albion]] - and that of "[[Aurora]]" - lies in the hands of your yet to be born child. This is a reference to the hero of [[Fable III]].

=== The Colosseum ===
{{Main|The Colosseum (Quest)}}
Here your player fights through many waves for the "ultimate prize". The game is just like the [[Crucible]], but here you get bonuses for hitting flitswitches or kicking chickens. The first wave consists of bugs then [[highwaymen]], [[balverine]]s, [[hollow men]], [[banshees]], [[bandit]]s, [[spire guards]] and the [[necromancer]] that was shown in the Cursed Skull quest. But if you kill him here in the Colosseum you will get an achievement called The Combatant. After the necromancer is dead, all previous enemies will spawn.

==Features==
===Quests===
The DLC offers several new quests:
* '''Murgo is back:''' Having first met him during the childhood sequence of Fable II, [[Murgo]] returns to [[Bowerstone Market]] to bring an amazing array of new wares, including potions that can transform canine companions into new breeds.

* '''The Ghosts of the Snowglobe Quest:''' The Hero is given a cursed Snowglobe holding a disturbing secret - the [[Oakvale#See The Future|small town]] inside it was once a real town in Albion, Oakvale. The people who once inhabited it are now ghosts condemned to endless torment until the shadowy threat that cursed them is defeated.

* '''The Cursed Knight:''' Forever banished to a land beyond the dead, the Cursed Knight awaits a Hero who has the strength and will to dress up in convincing costumes till the end of the road.

* '''The Colosseum:''' The [[Colosseum]] puts even the Crucible to shame. Only the greatest Heroes have triumphed here. Players’ abilities will be put to the test to prove themselves in combat once and for all, to win the ultimate in prizes and the Theodore bears.

==Trivia==
* The statues which come to life during the Cursed Knight/Necromancer quest are of various, seemingly random forms that the player character can take, one of which is wearing [[Hal's Outfit|Hal's Armour]] from the [[Fable II Limited Collectors Edition|Limited Edition of ''Fable II'']] which causes it to resemble the [[w:c:Halo:John-117|Master Chief]] of the ''[[w:c:Halo:Halo|Halo]]'' series.
*The Spire statue handed to you by Murgo gave him the chills just like you at your first time at the spire with Bob and the other new Spire worker who came off the boat with you.
*The Brave art makeup is based on the face-paint used in the movie ''[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Braveheart Braveheart]'' and the names are almost the same (obviously excluding the H and E at the beginning of art).
*''Fable III'' referenced ''See the Future'' a few times, including the Dingly Egg and the Colosseum Teddies being in the Museum and the hero asking if Theresa could tell him/her their future.
*The section after you return the Dingly Egg may be a reference to ''Through the Looking Glass'', not only because of the teleportation to a rabbit hole, but also the grandfather clock you see upon entry.
