    Emelda,[1][1.1] more commonly known as the Forest Witch, was a witch residing in the Enchanted Earth. Emelda was fond of rubies, sapphires, diamonds, amber and offered rewards for gems. She was also keen on ants' nests and liked to give abuse to cowards, such as Sir Dan.

    History

    Before the Evernight

    Emelda used to be part of the infamous Cemetery Hill coven. However, she was ostracized by her sisters when she refused to stop using the communal cauldron to prepare her notoriously pungent lunchtime brews, prompting her to move to the Enchanted Earth.[1.1]

    Some sources claim Emelda was responsible for sealing away the Shadow Demons after the Battle of Gallowmere.[2][2.1]

    During the Evernight

    Canonical account

    After being summoned by Dan using the Witch Talisman, Emelda asked him to find seven pieces of amber for her in the ants' nest. When Dan returned with the amber, she rewarded him with the Chicken Drumsticks.

    Apocryphal account

    According to some sources, the Forest Witch was the sister of the Pumpkin Witch, whom she plotted revenge against. She was also supposedly the guardian of the path to the 'Shadow Demon Gate.' She did not show much hostility towards Dan and asked him to find four Faerie Fungi for her. She then allegedly gave him a Butterfly Net to catch the fairies that have the fungi. She finally opened the passage to the Shadow Demon tomb for Dan after he completed her request.

    Gameplay

    MediEvil

    The Witch Talisman is required in order to summon her. This can be done in front of the cauldron found in the forest. If her quest is rejected, she cannot be summoned again until Dan leaves the Enchanted Earth. In the 2019 remake, her section of the forest will become inaccessible after enough progress is made in the Enchanted Earth level.

    Upon successfully completing her quest by finding amber in The Ant Caves, she will reward Dan with Chicken Drumsticks.

    Despite what she says, she does not offer her quest only once. The quest can be replayed in order to gain additional Chicken Drumsticks.
