The Woods of Light or the Clearing is a location in Rayman 2. It follows Rayman and Globox's escape from the Buccaneer, and is the first level in all versions of the game but the GBC adaptation, in which it doesn't appear at all. It is a tutorial level without enemies and significantly shorter than the other levels in the game. This is where Rayman learns that Ly the Fairy was captured by the pirates and then decides to set her free.

Original version
After being separated from Globox, Rayman starts looking for his friend and finds himself in these peaceful woods. He meets Murfy, who arrives to teach him the basics of the game's controls as he walks past the Stones of Thought.
Rayman soon finds the first cage in the game, which contains the first yellow Lum he will collect. He has to go down a waterfall, and then up a small valley to find three Baby Globoxes crying.
They temporarily calm down when they see Rayman, but start crying again when they learn he has no idea where their father is. Rayman then asks where Ly is, and the babies burst in tears, telling him she was captured by the pirates.
Rayman then decides to head for the Fairy Glade, where she is help captive, and frees a group of Teensies who argue over who of them is the king. If he has collected the five yellow Lums in the level, he will be able to use the Hall of Doors and leave the place.

Dreamcast version
The level is almost identical to the one in the original version, yet graphically enhanced.
At the end of the level, a purple Lum giving access to Globox Village can be found, even though Rayman will have to get Ly's silver Lum in the Fairy Glade first.
Notably, the Hall of Doors is replaced by the Isle of Doors in the Dreamcast version.
