Scene 1: The Informant's Den

Extract vital clues from a slippery informant in The Wolf Among Us 2's 'Scene 1: The Informant's Den,' mastering dialogue and strategic choices.

Bigby needs information, and that means visiting a known Fabletown informant. This scene is heavy on dialogue and persuasion, testing Bigby's ability to extract information without resorting to brute force – or knowing when to use it. The informant is notoriously slippery and will require careful handling.

1. Locating the Informant: Follow the leads from Episode 1 to a specific, dimly lit alleyway. Interact with the environment to find the hidden entrance to the informant's den.
2. Negotiating for Information: The informant won't give up details easily. You'll have several dialogue options to try and convince them.
   • Option A: Offer a Deal: Bigby can promise protection or a favor. This might require a previous good standing with certain Fables.
   • Option B: Intimidation: Bigby can use his reputation as the Big Bad Wolf to scare the informant. This might yield information but could damage Bigby's reputation with others.
   • Option C: Present Evidence: If you found specific, compelling evidence in Episode 1, you can use it to leverage the informant. This is often the most effective and least damaging approach.
3. The Informant's Demand: Regardless of your approach, the informant will likely demand something in return. This could be a physical item, a promise, or a specific action. Your decision here will have immediate and potentially long-term consequences.

Successfully gaining the informant's trust (or fear) is crucial for progressing the investigation. Be mindful of the cost of the information you seek.
