Royal Wood

The Royal Wood is a location in Dark Souls, but can only be accessed in the Artorias of the Abyss DLC.

Plot

The Royal Wood is part of Oolacile and is slowly being altered by the Abyss. Giant chasms have emerged by the time the Chosen Undead arrives. Remnants of Oolacile's magic can still be utilized in the form of stone elevators.

Lore

The Royal Wood is Darkroot Garden long before the time of the Chosen Undead. Many landmarks and features that have held constant can still be observed.

Notes

Although technically fought within the Oolacile Township, Knight Artorias acts as the area boss of the Royal Wood for summoning and invasion purposes.
