Fable narrative lead Anna Megill has announced her departure from Playground Games starting in August.
"In August, I'm stepping away from my role as Narrative Lead on Fable. I've had several wonderful years scribbling away in my fairytale cottage, but the time feels right for new challenges," Megill wrote on her tweet.
Megill has been with Playground Games since 2021 and has been the narrative lead for Fable since July 2022.
"Working on Fable was a dream come true for me, and it's wrenching to leave it behind," she added. "But Playground has assembled a Heroically talented team, so I know it's in good hands."
Megill cited that she will be taking some time off to rest and will be ready for a new project by October.
