'''The Desert of the Knaaren''' is the fifth of the nine levels of ''[[Rayman 3]]''. This is where the native species of this land, the [[Knaaren]], dwell. The [[Knaaren]] carved their tunnels out of the solid rock, and they guard their domain fiercely and effectively, constantly patrolling the many passages.
'''The Desert of the Knaaren''', also known as the '''Knaaren Desert''', is the fifth of the nine levels of ''[[Rayman 3]]''. This is where the native species of this land, the [[Knaaren]], dwell.

[[Rayman]] is sent here from [[The Land of the Livid Dead (Rayman 3)|the Land of the Livid Dead]] by the second [[Teensie doctor]], [[Roméo Patti]]. Like [[Otto Psi]], [[Roméo Patti|Roméo]] was unable to extract the [[Black Lum]] [[André]] from [[Globox]]'s body, so [[Roméo Patti|Roméo]] sends [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] to the Desert of the Knaaren, where the third [[Teensie doctor]], [[Art Rytus]], has his office. Along the way, [[Rayman]] and [[Globox]] fall into the tunnels, and [[Globox]] is captured by the [[Knaaren]]. [[Rayman]] must fight his way past [[Knaaren]] and [[Zombie Chicken]]s, and solve many puzzles along the way. Eventually he is captured by [[Reflux]], the champion of the [[Knaaren]], who challenges him to a duel in the arena. Once [[Rayman]] succeeds, [[Globox]] is freed, and [[Gumsi]], the child-king of the [[Knaaren]], uses the [[Sceptre of the Leptys]] to their god, the [[Leptys]], who grants [[Rayman]] the [[grimace]] ability as a reward. The heroes then meet up with [[Art Rytus]], who summons the other two doctors. Together they finally manage to extract [[André]], who escapes and tracks down the humiliated [[Reflux]]. [[André]] promises [[Reflux]] the opportunity to destroy [[Rayman]] once and for all if he will steal the [[Sceptre of the Leptys]] for him, and his promise is fulfilled in [[the Tower of the Leptys]], the game's final level.
