The '''Darkness''' is a dark cloud of [[Shadow]] that nearly engulfs [[Rapoville]] during the events of ''[[Drawn to Life]]''. The [[Hero]] cannot enter it, nor can any of the [[Raposa]]. It is also considered the absence of the [[Creator]].

Even after the game is beaten, the darkness is not completely gone. It remains around the edges of the map and acts as a barrier to the player, but it has disappeared entirely by the time of ''[[Drawn to Life: The Next Chapter]]''. This may be because there is no longer a need for a barrier since the game takes place mostly outside the Village.

After many levels, The Hero must clear a portion of the Darkness by tapping on the [[Eternal Flame]]. The black clouds then become a lighter grey, signaling that it is now possible to remove them. This is done by tapping on the faded clouds until there are none remaining.

=={{Icon|Tower}} Appearance==
Darkness looks like large, puffy black/dark grey clouds, which turn a lighter grey before disappearing altogether.

=={{Icon|Gears}} Story ==
The Darkness was created and controlled by [[Wilfre]] after he drew in the [[Book of Life]].  After Wilfre had destroyed the Book, the Creator seemingly left the village, and his absence and Wilfre's reach are represented by the Darkness.

During ''[[Drawn to Life]]'', the Hero may only clear the Darkness after he has cleared a level, and even then only a portion of it. Each time this happens, a new part of the Village is revealed, whether it may be a location, [[:Category:Buildings|building]] or a [[:Category:Gates|gate]]. 

=={{Icon|Question}} Trivia==
* After the completion of ''[[Drawn to Life]]'', there is still a border of darkness around the village that acts as a barrier to the player. 
** However, after Wilfre is defeated, Jowee says that all the darkness is gone. This might be a mistake by the developers.
* The darkness around the village does not appear in any of the other games in the series.
