How to unlock the Apprentice Librarian achievement in The Wolf Among Us - Definitive Guide

There are 2 Fables that are missable in this episode.

In chapter 2 when you're interrogating Tweedledee or The Woodsman you need to play bad cop and good cop. Start with the one you want to stick with in the story. Then when you finish the episode rewind back and do the opposite on a separate save file. Achievement will unlock right after. You can then quit out.

Tweedledee (Bad Cop) you have to, smash the bottle, steal the money, burn him with the cigar and punch Crane.

Tweedledee (Good Cop) you have to offer drink, drop the money ,offer cigar, and stop Bluebeard from beating him.

Woodsman (Bad Cop) you have to, smash the bottle, burn him with the cigarette, punch him, and punch Crane. *tighten handcuff if available.

Woodsman (Good Cop) you have to offer drink, offer cigarette, question him with "I understand what you're feeling", and stop Bluebeard from beating him. *loosen handcuff if available.

When I did the woodsman on the 360 version I had the option to loosen or tighten the handcuffs. Go ahead and loosen for good cop and tighten for bad. If there is an option. There was not the option for Tweedledee on the One version.

The second missable fable is in Chapter 3. After talking to Toad Jr, You will be asked to investigate the body. Don't select yes. Tell her that you want to look around a bit more by selecting cn_B. Go to the Magic Mirror and ask what Toad and Toad Jr were looking at. The magic mirror will say one line then the fable will unlock.

The option to tighten/loosen the restraints is present on X1 when interrogating Tweedledee.

Ok thanks I never saw it. It didn't affect the fable at least.

You can quit out right after unlocking the book of fables entry and start back at the interrogation without having to rewind. Just pick the choice you want to count second.

Like TBone said, you don't have to wait and rewind. You can make the choice you don't want to keep, then right when it says that the entry has unlocked, go back out to the menu and then choose to continue. You'll restart at the beginning of the scene and can replay the way you want it to stay. It's a bit faster.

Good solution, but it would be nice if you removed the Snow spoiler from the last part.

you can also press B on Tweedledee to punch him in instead of one of the items and it still unlocks Icabod's Denial

You do not need to do all the things to get them just a majority.

solution is good, but you don't need a 2nd save file for the interrogation. You should change your solution to mention as soon as you unlock 1 fable entry, back out to the main menu. Reloading your save from the file will put you right back at the start of the interrogation.

I missed a fable so if there would have been names, just for the missing ones then it would have been lot easier. But it sure helped. Thanks

As a note and I don't see it mentioned anywhere, but this achievement should unlock at the end of chapter 4 (meaning you don't have to complete the whole episode for it to pop).

If I understand correct if you are looking at your book of fables, you should see Bigby's Vengence, then the Ichabod's Denial would be next followed by Bluebeard's Mercy with Thirteenth floor. So look in between Bigby's Vengence Thirteenth floor to see which you don't. I am coming back after YEARS to finish this game up so had no idea what I was missing.

I do believe you don't have to rewind and play the whole chapter again...just do what you don't want first and as soon as the entry unlocks quit out then reenter then do the other...I was able to do it that way for the missile entry in episode 1. I'll test it tomorrow

Matt DB87's solution is good for telling you how to get the two different entries.

Solution for Apprentice Librarian In The Wolf Among Us

However, it doesn't say which path gives you which entry. I ended up playing it through 3 times because I accidentally unlocked the same one twice. To see the entries you unlock, click the spoiler.

Thank you! This is what I needed.

In episode 2 like episode 1 a lot of the fables are story related but 4 of them are miss able.

The first two are in chapter 2 when your interrogating your hostage whether it is dee or the huntsman, if you are the good cop towards your hostage you will get one fable e.g give them wine and if you are a bad cop you will get the other e.g smashing the wine over your hostage’s head.

The next miss able fable is in chapter 3 after talking to T.J you get the option to look at the body now or look around for a little while. You need to choose to look around and talk to the mirror, you can ask the mirror anything and it will give you another fable.

The last miss able fable is when you go to look at the body in chapter 3 before going to the body you need to walk to the left and examine the witching well, when you come back on screen another fable will unlock.

The rest of the fables are story related and can’t be missed but if you have any trouble I have included a video below to help out. *warning the video contains spoilers*

As with the other trophies where you have to unlock all the fables, there are missable ones that you will need to rewind the chapter in order to obtain.

Missable Fable Locations #1 & #2:

In the first section of Episode 2. Where you are interrogating Tweedledee. What you basically have to do is to get the first missable Fable Book, which is Ichabod Crane’s, is being a jerk to the prisoner during interrogation. Should be easy for the Big Bad Wolf! Then replay/rewind the section with different choices to get the second missable Fable Book, which is Blue Beard’s, which is received for playing it nice and getting him talking by… and when you are being nice to Tweedledee don’t hit him, and be gentle, Blue Beard will get annoyed and try to interfere, then you stop him violently, and done!

So to get the final entry you simply need to rewind to the interrogation section to replay it, and either:
1) Choose Ichabod Crane’s Book of Fable, which opens if you mistreat the prisoner during interrogation, or
2) Instead choose Blue Beard’s Book of Fable, which opens by being nice to prisoner and not ever hitting him, followed by stopping Blue Beard when he tries to interfere, violently.

Missable Fable Location #3:

After the TJ the little frog interview, when him and his dad leave, Snow will ask if you want to go investigate the body or look around first? DO NOT LEAVE! Choose to look around a bit more… Do so by talking to the Mirror and afterwards you’ll have unlocked a new Book of Fables entry!

*MISSABLE*

Really if you talk to the mirror BEFORE you see the body in Chapter 2 there is only one missable Fable book. Replay Chapter 2 and either beat the snot out of Dee or choose to reason with him instead. Once you unlock the final fable book (Ichabod's or Bluebeard's) the achievement will unlock.

*MISSABLE*

Book of Fables entries can be unlocked via natural story progression while at other times, though not all too frequently, for making specific decisions during a crucial moment in an Episode’s Chapter. In Episode 2, there are a total of 11 entries to be collected.

All but three of these entries are obtained through story progression, so go ahead and check out the list below for those that are considered “missable.”

Ichabod’s Denial

  • Unlocked if you choose to be aggressive and mistreat the suspect during the interrogation of Chapter 2.

Bluebeard’s Mercy

  • Unlocked if you choose to be nice, as in never hitting or verbally abusing, the suspect during the interrogation of Chapter 2.

Take note that immediately after unlocking either Ichabod’s Denial or Bluebeard’s Mercy, you can pause your game, quit out, and then resume the story. This will place you right back to the beginning of the interrogation, which allows you to unlock the Fable entry that you didn’t get the first time around.

Additionally, during Chapter 3, Bigby will ask TJ a few questions in the Business Office. After this whole conversation is over and TJ and Toad leave the building, Snow will ask Bigby is he wants to go see “the body” now. DO NOT LEAVE YET! Tell her to give you a few more minutes so that you can talk to The Magic Mirror and unlock The Magic Mirror entry. After you obtain this entry, then you can proceed through the Chapter/Episode as you normally would.

Once all 11 Book of Fable entries in Episode 2 have been collected, this achievement will unlock.
