Deep Woods

Sonic and the Black Knight << Previous area — Deep Woods — Next area >>

Camelot Castle is the third stage in Sonic and the Black Knight for the Nintendo Wii. Storm clouds gather in the sky as the pastoral farmlands outside Camelot Castle give way to a sprawling woodland of old-growth trees and spiked vines. The forest is inhabited, though, with the Arthurian folk residing in several walled villages within the confines of the forest (and they plant an inordinate quantity of bear traps between the trees!). Marshes, ponds, and gorges make the Deep Woods a varied environment for any adventurer.

Deep Woods is also the home of Nimue, Lady of the Lake.

Story
With Caliburn successfully sharpened by the Blacksmith, Sonic and the sword press on with their main quest for Merlina the Sorceress: finding the Lady of the Lake to learn how to counteract the Scabbard of Excalibur and thus curtail King Arthur's immortality. Accordingly, they proceed from Castle Camelot to the Lady's home in Deep Woods.

After cutting a path through the underworld legions in the forest, the hedgehog arrives at the Lady's enchanted lake - only to find that Nimue is this world's doppleganger of Amy Rose! After Caliburn orders Sonic to remain respectful, Nimue agrees to tell Sonic how to negate the Scabbard's power - if he can prove himself as a true and noble knight, by completing three quests for her.

As Sonic and Caliburn head out to fulfil Nimue's challenges, they are confronted by the strongest of King Arthur's Knights of the Round Table: Sir Lancelot. Sonic manages to defeat the Knight of the Lake, but according to Caliburn, the victory only came through sheer luck.
