So, I've been messing around with newly downloaded Fable Explorer, trying to fix some issues with my game vs my computer. I was searching in textures.big and I found this one, at the end of SPRITE section:

SPRITE_TURNCOAT_TEXT

As I was kinda interested in runic alphabet before, I imediately noticed it's Elder Futhark. So, I took a chart with Futhark letters and got to work.

Now, here is the transcription:

"I shall control you do my bidding"

Very Happy

Now, I don't know if it's a known easter egg in Fable community, but I've got 2 questions:
1. What on Earth does it mean Very Happy?
2. Does someone recognize where in game can one find that texture?

EDIT: Replaced link to the image with name of file, I didn't take attention to forum rules, sorry.

If I had to guess I would say it's mostly transparent and floating around Jack of Blades or something. I don't remember specifically seeing that though

Thanks for info. I lost my old save but I'm gonna examine that when I reach that point.

I wonder if Big Blue Box expected anyone to find this.

Maybe it appears when you use the Turncoat spell? I have never used that spell, but will later to try it out.

Yep, exactly, this inscription forms a circle around your target when you use turncoat spell on it. Now everything makes sense, including "I shall control...". Thanks for info!

Still though, they could just put random text in there but they made it properly. I got surprised by this one.
