The Music Box is a magical wind up box of Old Kingdom origin, that plays music. It is an important quest item that appears in Fable II, Fable III and Fable: The Journey, with the role in Fable II being the most significant.
Fable II[]
Description[]
A small music box that trembles with energy at your touch.
Acquisition[]
- Main article: Childhood
The music box is initially acquired by the Hero of Bowerstone and their sister, Rose, for 5 gold coins from Murgo in Old Town. The Hero's sister uses the box to wish that she and the Hero could live in a castle. After the wish was made the box started to play its music, while simultaneously spinning and rising into the air. The music speeds up and the box spins faster, before vanishing in a flash of light, leaving Rose very upset. It is because of the box that Lucien is made aware of the children; he heard of Murgo selling it to the children.
The Relic[]
- Main article: Retribution
The cards given received from Theresa at the start of Fable II features one titled "The Relic" which describes an ancient weapon used to defeat Lucien. The Music Box is this weapon and is summoned after the ritual with the three Heroes on the Hero Hill in Bower Lake. In the cutscene on Hero Hill once you have gathered Hammer, Garth and Reaver, the ritual begins and channels their energy to you, the Fourth standing in the centre of the triangle they created. The ritual becomes complete in a flash of light right before Lucien appears and how Hammer complains how much the process hurt.
A Perfect World[]
- Main article: A Perfect World
The box later returns to the Hero in a "dream" the Hero has after Lucien shoots them for the second time on Hero Hill. When the Hero leaves the farm to investigate the strange music, they abandon Rose and follow a nightmarish path to find the music box waiting on a stone table. Rose's voice reports "You have passed the test. Your reward is the chance to confront your enemy, and the means to destroy him." After reappearing, the music box is used to prevent Lucien from activating the Spire, doing so by absorbing all the power he has gained from Hammer, Garth and Reaver.
Fable III[]
In Fable III, the music box once again returns. Sabine, leader of the Dweller Camp, asks the Hero to retrieve one of their parent's ancient relics from beneath the Brightwall Academy, which turns out to be the Music Box itself. When you receive it you are teleported to the Road to Rule, where Theresa gives you a vision of Logan's madness after you open it. Hereafter you take the Music Box to Sabine, although he does not know how to operate it and admits he didn't expect he would be able to. The music box remains in his possession.
