Wolf Valley, formerly the Valley of the Big Sleepers, is a large valley just outside the Farm that is the home of Bigby Wolf, Snow White and their children.[1] It debuts in Fables #8 — "The Pirates of Upstate New York: Part Three of Animal Farm."
History
The Big Sleepers
Bordered by mountains in Upstate New York, the Valley of the Big Sleepers was originally farm land which gave residence to three giants (Johnny, Donny and Lonny) and a dragon named Clara,[2] whose large sizes required the Fables to be put under a sleep spell to avoid their detection in the mundane world.[3]
However, all four were awakened by Snow White to defend against the Farm's revolutionaries.[3] Afterward, they didn't wish to return to their slumber, but keeping them fed threatened to strip the Farm bare, so a compromise was reached which saw the giants transformed to become the new Three Little Pigs while Clara was turned into a raven (though still with a dragon's ability to breathe fire) and took up a position as Rose Red's enforcer.[4]
The Wolf family
When Bigby Wolf completed a solo mission into the Homelands, Fabletown mayor Prince Charming awarded ownership of the Valley of the Big Sleepers from the Farm to Bigby as a way for him to live with Snow White and their non-human children. Since the Wolf children were unable to leave the area as they couldn't pass for human and Bigby himself was banned from the Farm, the renamed Wolf Valley allowed the Wolf family to stay together.[1]
Abandoned
After Rose Red calls off the war between Snow White and her forces,[5] the Wolf family relocates to the Hesse and build[6] a new manor house for themselves[7] in Bigby's ancestral home in the Black Forest.[6]
