River of Darkness

The River of Darkness is a long winding river on the Dark Island which begins at the foothills of the Temple of Light. It is bordered by the Billy Badlands as well as the mountains housing the Temple of Light. It intersects through Jankikai Jungle.
Trees and shrubs along the river have been blackened and are starting to rot due to Dark Matter, and the water shines with a corrupt and dark purple glow. Landmarks of the river include the crash site of the Destiny's Bounty and a skull shaped cave where Wu and Clouse once fought.
==History==
===Dark Island Trilogy, Part 2===
During the events of the Dark Island Trilogy, Part 2, Wu and Lloyd sailed in the repaired remains of the Destiny's Bounty up the River of Darkness. The characters were on their mission to the Temple of Light to find the source of the island's darkness. Along the way, they fought against wasps corrupted and enlarged by Dark Matter, before a corrupted Lloyd left the river in anger at Wu for not attempting to rescue his mother Misako.
Wu fought and defeated shadow version of himself on the river. Eventually, he found Clouse in a skull shaped cave toward the beginning of the River of Darkness. After a short fight and learning of Clouse's plans, Wu was found by Cole and travelled further upriver towards the Temple of Light in the Destiny's Bounty.
=== Dark Island Trilogy, Part 3 ===
Upon reaching the foothills of the Temple of Light, Wu departed the river and met the ninja, Misako, and Ronin. They proceeded to fight Clouse at the Temple of Light using the Golden Mech, which was stored on the river within the Destiny's Bounty.
