Distant Villagers

The Distant Villagers are found the entrance room to the Beast's Den in the Distant Village of Deepnest.

They can be spoken with and will all soothingly try to convince The Knight to sit on the Bench. However after The Knight sits on the Bench, they are then stuck there by webs, whereas all the Distant Villagers will converge upon the Bench causing the music to distort and the screen to fade black. After a series of violent sound effects and a loud roar The Knight is then transported into Beast's Den.

After the Knight has absorbed Herrah the Distant Villagers abandon their cloaks and shells, which turn out to be just masks, and are never seen again.

Trivia

 * "...Not friends..."
