The Courtyard is the fourteenth area Simon explores in Castlevania: Lords of Shadow - Mirror of Fate. It is here that the Combat Cross is recovered and the Necromancer is fought.

Description

The castle's outer midsection gives a look at the estate's many towers, its roof structures, and a few statues, but it offers nothing for a hero who doesn't possess the grip ability. For now, the one-"room" area is another short connector, its left exit taking us to a place where the action will begin to heat up.

Simon will return here in a bit, using a pathway that branches out from the Library, and find the Combat Cross, which triggers a boss battle against the Necromancer in the outer courtyard. When things have been settled between Simon and the Necromancer, he will return to the Courtyard from the Library and use the Combat Cross to scale the wall above the left exit point to procure some loot.

Strong: Oil Flask Difficulty: 4/5 HP: 900 Exp: 750		Courtyard
	Skeleton Warrior  [alt] - Mirror of Fate				[ edit ]
	Despite being dead, the remains of these warriors retain an echo of what they once were when alive and so continue to defend the castle.

	Rotten Zombie  - Mirror of Fate				[ edit ]
	Subjected to putrefaction over many years, some zombies have become lethal corpses capable of mutilating themselves to reach their prey.
