First fable is Keeran's mom marrying the new guy. I guess Keeran doesn't even remember his dad. Poor bloke. The new husband (Cronan? "swarthy one.") He seems like a nice guy. He gives Keeran an opal necklace. He says that, as long as he wears the necklace, help will come to him. Fable 2 can be Keeran's relationship with his dad. In fable 3 we can see a bit of Keeran's education, maybe, and his frustration with not being able to follow his dreams? Now we need the reason for Keeran to go run off...

I think it's pretty important that we keep the story moving, too.
