The Fable

Known in the underworld as Fable, a feared hitman in organized crime, has earned a near-mythic reputation for ending any target in six seconds. Six years into his career, his boss decides the attention from law enforcement is getting too intense and orders him to lie low in Osaka for one year. Traveling with his driver—posing as his sister—Fable is given one strict rule: live like an ordinary civilian and kill no one, or both of them will pay with their lives.

The forced downtime doesn’t stay peaceful for long. Takeshi Ebihara, second-in-command of the Osaka yakuza assigned to shelter him, views Fable as a danger and moves to eliminate him. Watched closely and pushed into constant high-stakes situations, Fable must navigate Ebihara’s traps and survive without breaking the one condition that keeps him alive.
