Oh, thats really dark. Cultural phenomena started and was seen as good luck when it was just killing them.
yep. it's assumed everyone who did it continued safely on the pilgrimidge, not know it led to their death. IN fact, if you don't break out of the roots immediately, you can see all the other bugs embedded in the wall with you
Honestly hornet's Wyrm blood is probably 'the' worst possible thing for it to consume because now it's something with essentially divine power able to grow rampant and unchecked without limit now
is okay, you can just get tortured and the parasite comes out
Its weird that its whole ritual requires making a baby and bringing it to itself. I assume after eatting Grand Mother Silk its probably even worse for Pharloom, the entire Citadel gets rooted
man... Hornet is gonna need therapy after this game
It doesn't come out, you just weaken it to the point you can subsume it.
Wonder if that means Greyroot is dead? The original Greyroot becomes solid dead root after the infection
Greyroot is kinda what White Lady would be like if they decided to be antagonistic
okay so far in steel soul I've given 5 silkeaters to Skykx (who replaces the nerd who grows them) and so far each has only rewarded between 100 and 150 rosaries. not bad, but nothing to write home about so far
So is it Essentially confirmed now that ||the old Kingdom of hallownest / the void Kingdom was|| ||the snail Sharmans bcuz of the Things that Go down in Act 3?||
At least thats what i Put together so far
No no no
Snail Shamans worship the concept. But even they know "Yeah actually fucking with void is bad news"
Also: lookie who I found in Steel soul.
Where's that?
Oooh, you're a Goat Gamer
I just rushed towards an ending so I didnt see anything out of place besides Styx being crushed
Did you push a little past styx to find the silkeater eater?
I was also suprised over the existence of ||void tendrills|| in ||the abyss||
Since there was No ||mold imprint Like in HK, Just something Out of silk That gives you the Journal entry||
Here's where I found Zi
Blasted Steps?
The tendrils are a normal manifestation, they whip out on proximity, The ones we see topside are just latching onto the already existing silk strands
Im pretty Sure in Base(d) hollowknight in an area above the Lake of void you See a mold for void tendrills
Which also gives you the Journal entry
I think you're confusing that with the kingmolds, which were an early attempt at giving void form. Trying to shove those tendrils 'into' things
Nono, i know the Kingsmolds in White palace
But there is a Secret room to the right of the Lake of void past some Plattforming
Yeah but they aren't like. something created. the tendrils themselves I mean.
They're what the void chooses to reflect those near it as, something aggressive and hurtful. I think Silksong also has Hornet's perspective on it when you find the journal on them
So how many differences does Steelsoul have now? Handful of new rooms, new minor quest new enemy? No one has reached Act 3 yet in that mode, right?
I could go into act 3 but I'm holding off until I know I have everything topside
Hmm
I'll Look at the Journal again when i get Home.
But for now duck those face eaters down there
Zi gave me a wish so I'm checking it out now
Assumably an ending but I dont believe anyone's got it yet based off what was taken from files.
okay so finishing the steel soul wish is 'very' interesting. I'll leave it to folks to find out, but make sure you do it before act 3 for good impact!
first steel soul wish* not sure if there's more yet im still learndeding
oh neato
reward is kind of amazing for architect users
Steel Soul has exclusive quests?
yep
to go with, heres the Needolin dialogue.
Who is that?
Steel Soul exclusive npc
No like who in the lore
Steel soul lore
Do we know
Steel soul is quite literally it's own thing
(Thee Lore)
Pharloom is a mountain, at the peak of the mountain is a small village. One day Grand Mother Silk arrived and ascended all of the local bugs into Weavers which are bugs that can weave silk in the Hollowknight world, silk can be used to make spells, songs, and seals and is basically magic. Silk can also tap into memories to fast learn things at the cost of that memory being destroyed or the person it belonged to being destroyed. From that small town a Citadel was built at the peak of the mountain to give praise and worship for the Grand Mother Silk that had made the Weavers, they however did not know they where forcefully ascended from normal bugs. Grand Mother Silk sent out a call in the mind of various Pilgrims to make the trek to the Citadel in promise of paradise. There where several civilizations already present in Pharloom. The Stick Bugs who where probably the first, and where started by Nyleth (who might be a Higher Being, might not be), they made the land green and habitable for all of the other groups. The Crabs who likely came from a far away land, and set up a Warlord Outpost, likely similar to Genghis Kahn and other similar Asian Empires who had vasal warlords that watched over territory for a much bigger emperor. The Green Dancers which had a small nice society but where very skilled. The Flies who seemingly liked to steal things and eat corpses. The Ants who had a proud civilization based around music and combat. And the Swamp People, who had relations with soul and the Snail Shamans. There was a long lineage of Snail Shamans in Pharloom, who eventually went into hiding, however they had relations with the Swamp People. The Citadel had killed all of these civilizations except for the Flies who they worked with, and the Swamp People by the time the game starts.
(Here on out is speculation by me)
Literally just a creature, nothing special? No story?
Whats your opinion of Steel Soul Bilewater?
Steel soul is it's own lore seperate from the main games, it's a story in parallel that we glimpse into. They're essentially void hunters. Simple as that.
Steel Soul Jinn and this new Steel person probably come from the City of Iron that was mentioned in the prisons
okay this is annoying 2 of the spots are in areas i need double jump for
Future Zoteboat location
Shit's bad yo. Blasted steps was more annoying. But bilewater was cursed. My worry is the first climb out of the ||abyss|| not really able to do practice runs of that
i guess ill continue the wish when i rest
You got this
Bilewater is absolutel doodoo tho
So Steel Soul is its own timeline?
it's why I'm so focused on doing as much as possible in act 2 before going into steel soul act 3
to force my body to lock in as much as possible before the climb
Cuz remember, Death is permanent
I absolutely despise the Fish maggots that Grab you, do 2 masks of damage and throw you Into the maggot water
The City of what now? Where in the Slab was that mentioned?
They're like the mario fish enemies from nes mario but worse lol
I think Steel Soul jinn talked about it
Me thinks to remember
it's also mentioned in one of the cages in the cradle
My biggest mistake was taking witch crest down there
I didn't activte witch until right before fighting GMS, because I wanted to knock out three achievements at once
In the Slab it is said that some Weavers fled to the City of Iron but they where hunted down there. There is also a mysterious "Masters" that Seer Zi, and I think Steel Soul Jinn mentions
I was greedy. Too greedy. almost cost my run as not having healing and skipping double jump made me almost die lol. Her room aoe is near impossible to dodge without perfect timing with only a single jump
was on one mask left when I got the killing blow. I could have made diamonds with my sphincter during it
I did it without Double Jump the First time i Beat the Game.
You just Gotta glide
Happens XD
Im realizing that Steel Seer is actually a sword. Theres some weird stuff going on with the City of Iron, maybe Sharpe shows us that their actually all Void. But they seem to not be bugs
Only works if the pattern gives you something you can glide through. If they're low, you're fucked
that's kinda cheezy though
room aoe?
Whatever Higher Being runs the City of Iron must suck
I mean, all is fair Game XD
Im Just using the Tools the Game gives me
Ok so i realised you can nock off the mask makers mask, same as in the first game. After that Hornet mentions that the Maker has "the Sight", and the Mask Maker then starts to predict Hornet's future. Could this be refering to the same forsight that the Pale king had?
Wdym suck
Is this in steel soul only? Or in act 3? And also who is that
City of Steel, and it was mentioned in the Cradle
i find myself very rarely hit by the room aoe because its very generous in the safe spots and you're giving gliding for a reason
the sight is something any native soul user can use. They aren't higher beings, but they can naturally use soul, which is why they make faces for people
Like to fight or as a ruler or what
Steel Soul only
i only posted the Needolin dialogue if its relevant to any future discussion.
Thankd
Do we meet Steel soul Sharpe in SS mode?
not that i have seen, no.
I wonder if he is still in the game
So from the sounds of it by Seer Zi, the City of Iron is a civilization that has successfully Weaponized Void completely. They also have the "Masters" of this society who seem to keep things under a strict totalitarian watch. In Silksong Steel Zi is in Pharloon to pursue what is essentially a servant bug (Unwilling Slave Bug) who has "Touched the Dark" AKA learned how to do stuff with Void, and therefore must be hunted and killed to the end of the earth.
The City of Iron is probably a huge robot void city
Yeah i really hope we get to see it
We practically know from Seer Zi that the steel bugs are void. Also Steel Assasin Sharpes nose is void
What's the ideal tool build for ||Shaman Crest? I want to try out the spell spam chaos||
I bet that one person who kept saying the steel people aren't void is kicking the wall rn
Hollow Knight: Steeldance, Lace is the MC and has a vendetta against void after it took her mother away from her. Release 2032.
Nah i want to see quirrel visit the City of Iron
Lace does move in a unique way for them to be a protag, but Lace is also crazy. They killed their mother for paying attention to someone else even though they where doing that just to maintain them.
But Quirrels dead?
Lace could also have heavy parryslop gameplay.
Dont remind me 🥲
I am sorry
Is Silksong considered reverse parryslop?
Who'd win, Hornet binded with Grand Mother Silk or Shade/Shade Lord
Its obvious isnt it? Zote will be the third protagonist 
Stalemate
Im still waiting on Zoteboat
Unless they got a delicate flower theyre cooked lol
Void in the City of Iron must be super common for a garden variety bug like the Servant to learn about Void and know how to summon a Void entity. For some reason though they think it will free them or save them? Maybe as a guardian to them? Itll probably just kill them though
So far the void Hasnt lost a Battle
She could probably dig into her own memories with the monarch's power she obtained to get the flower
it took the lives of the snail shaman to pull that one out
Void never loses it just gets held back
This is just a joke, but Void vs the simple lightbulb
City of Iron rule seems to be so absolute that Steel Seer Zi does not even consider the idea of there being hope from going against the words of the Masters, but considers the thought of not doing what their masters asked interesting and that its something they never thought of before
Void vs birb
Fellas
Is this Game and void Just an alligory for death and how we Humans fear it and try to Control it?
ngl if the bird is a reference for the size of things then the pale king wyrm was like the size of a python lol
If there where to be an allegory it probably wouldve been in Hollow Knight, but also I dont think its really and allegory
I dont think so, but it can be interpreted that way
Zoteboat where they bring back the coral region and steel faction
I mean Philosophy can Interpret anything Into anywhat.
As i Like to say
"Philosophy is looking at a puddle and Imagining Its an ocean"
Seems to be about hubris and trying to preserve the wrong things idk I don’t read
City of Iron and Pharloom sound like total shitholes. No wonder Hallownest got powercrept, only Pale King gets it.
pharloom has that whole anti worker bench thing going on
Pharloom hostile architecture theory
The entirety of hallownest isnt wheelchair accesible.
Corrupt politicians Keep lining their pockets.
Just Look at how many sawblades the pale King ordered.
How many Elevators / ramps could that have been?
is this even a question. shade lord lmfao
guys i just realised in slab escape sequence hornet is black fully, so hornet is definitely void
No, Hornet unlike the other children of the pale King was never disgarded Into the void.
Ive noticed that not all bugs in Pharloom have masks. Does this change everything we know about mask lore from hk?
they do wear masks, just not traditional
There's an NPC in Mount Fay that spends all his time making masks for everyone
||He has extra dialogue if you charge attack his mask off||
Last Judge Dies
BRO SPOILERS PLESAE?
What about the guards in the Slab?
Theres no spoiler tags in these channels irc
This is lore. You're expected to be spoiled.
Also the mask maker thing has been there since HK 1
Where did Hollow Knight go from Hk?
beat the game.
Dont spoil me even tho im in yk lore
they're obviously at home now sipping nectar
Hollow knight is dead, youre talking about The Knight im guessing
retired, armless, moisturized and in his lane
No no, the Hollow Knight themselves is very much alive
Honestly it'd be cool if they made him into a ending
They did.
that... wouldn't make sense.
yeah and based on the ending of silksong we know which ending from HK is cannon. which means. Hollow Knight is alive, but unable to fight considering they're down a limb and probably severely weakened from holding the infection at bay for so long
They are retired. End of story
damn the end of the hk series?
Yeah but they both retired
The ghost. Our PC from the first game showed up and did their job better.
I wonder whoose gonna be in hk3 tho
Hornet could very well have another game, or the next protag could be someone from silksong
Still surprised they held back Sharpe though considering he's a backer boss
He was a backer boss in the first game
its possible they're saving them for later or something happened
no gurantee they'd become a character in the second
I seriously doubt there will be another Hollow Knight
They literally pushed him back to this game
He has to be here
They must have thought of something crazy and in standard Team Cherry fashion couldnt hold.themselves back from ballooning it into something that couldnt fit Act 3
I think it wouldnt be both hornet and the knight
Why? Team Cherry seems to enjoy making these games
Silksong takes place after two endings, not just ETV
The ending of silksong Literally says to look forward to another.
They probably want to move onto a new IP
As evidenced by??
And no, silksong is very specifically only after godholm ending.
No, it'd either DnM or EtV
have you beaten act 3?
It flashes between DNM Siblings and JUST Shade Lord to indicate that it could be after either ending
They literally wanted to make dlc for this game before it came out I highly doubt they're tired of this IP
I said so
If I hadn't I wouldn't be here 
hear me out guys, the dlc for hk was silksong, which clesrly means that they were planning for another hk game but since silksong wouldnt fit in hk they changed it
Imagine if HK's kickstarter didnt get that playable Hornet milestone, Silksong wouldn't even exist
No. Because the shade lord happens IN the Godhome ending. The shade is just what Hornet sees because Ghost doesn't wanna spook her. Because they're still related through their father. The thing is. Seeing all the siblings in the background, but no Hollow Knight one. Which helped during the standard radiance ending. Means they're alive. Which means 'only' the godhome ending took place
Cope all you want, both endings are canon 🥱
there was a huge discussion the other day breaking down the details between everyone. Say "cope" all you want. It's one timeline, it doesn't branch. This is just you not having an argument so you're trying to ragebait. It's poor showing on your part
Both endings theoritically are cannon but they cant literally be in the same timeline
Or maybe she just didn't see the THK shade
It's also possible that the siblings/shade lord aren't actually there, considering how we only see them from Hornet's POV after some flashing light, it's possible Hornet is just seeing things, be it hallucinations or mystic visions, especially since she's literally about to pass out
The only thing that is for sure actually there is TK
The siblings and shade lord probably aren't
It's pretty clear that TC showed both all the Siblings and Shade Lord in flashes of light to allude at both endings being possible
The only supporting argument for the godholm ending to not be cannon would be if we also saw the Hollow Knight, but considering we saw him walking out of the black egg to see Hornet (you can tell by their cracked pure nail) after that ending. And we didn't see their shade during the reveal at the end of silksong. It's easy to guess they're alive. DLC may expand soon, but until that. all evidence points to a single cannon ending and that's godhome
There doesn’t need to be a branch what
Zote game still on the table
Because if you're going to show all the siblings and NOT the HK, then why bother showing everything.
Why show all the siblings at all if it's only shade lord?
this doesn't make sense because (functionally) thk's shade wouldn't be any different
It's meant to be ambiguous which of the two endings it is
thk is probably in the big wall of shades
the reason why we only see the knight/ghost/lord of shades is because they're the one hornet knows the closest
We've SEEN THK's shade. It's huge, what are you talking about?!
i worded that horridly
Do you know who hasn’t? HORNET!!!
Hornet literally never met any of the other siblings
yes but i think the shades are all still her siblings
She was raised for a time 'with' the hollow knight. So if anything, he should have been the first to see
hornet seeing thk first wouldn't make sense though
This feels like a completely arbitrary point
It would make perfect sense. they were literally raised as brother and sister for a time and served for some time as the pale kings knights. She's known him much longer than the Ghost,.
Except we don't actually know how much time they spent together at all
easy boss tbh idk why it took me 10 tries 🥀
Still more than the Ghost regardless of argument
For all we know they might've just met once
'who would she see first thk or the ghost that she fought twice, fought alongside with to defeat thk, the one who finally killed her mother etc.'
feat. my very quiet voice for some reason
Yeah I feel like one of the two had a big of a bigger impact on her life
the one she saw worthy, the one she helped on their journey, etc
the doylist explanation is 'they showed The Knight because it's meant to be a callback for people who played hollow knight 1'
Can't wait till we get a new Jokerpsa that says both DnM and EtV are possible
also we know thk and hornet weren't raised together because 3 queens was proven true
why would PK risk THK developing feelings by sending them to the white lady
that would be fire
he literally does this anyways
Well I mean as we all know PK is Stupid
THK is still a much more familiar person to Hornet regardless of "Ghost having more of an impact" Because end of the day, they still served the pale king for a time and were half siblings, she was there when they got sealed. Because part of her existance was dependant on making said seal, And they weren't sealed until she'd grown some otherwise Herrah would have been sleeping already.
thats the whole reason the game exists, did you do path of pain ???
And sayuing "well the Ghost is a callback to people who played the first one" SO'S THK!
'it's much more familiar so that makes more sense than ghost having more impact' i think you need to consider like
Except one of the two you spend the whole game with
I fail to see why THK would need to be there
ghost is specifically the one who showed up because HORNET HELPED GHOST DEFEAT THK AND FREE THE VESSELS
And one of the two you're constantly striving to be better than in order to take their place/beat the thing cursing them
The most important thing about people Is the impact they leave on us so I don't think you can just brush that aside
familiar in the sense that she knows it exists, pretty sure thats about it
Not in the godholm ending. Which is why at the end Hornet seems shocked to see THK out of the black egg
You don't even see them until the end
DNM is a more satisfying conclusion to the story while ETV is a much more wild one so why not just allow Silksong to take place after both like the ending implies
sure you do. flashbacks, and doing PoP
She'd be shocked to see them no matter what lmao
I do wonde rif butteflies that guide us are either lace or Eva ?
the knight, at the start of their journey, is already better than the hollow knight for their intended purpose
Because the ending implies a single ending and I genuinely don't see why you're adamant on on it being two other than your argument is incorrect and you can't stand losing?
Except it clearly implies both DnM and EtV
This sounds like projection dude 😭
Not really because in a way they already have a will. The issue is, that will is focused on a direction rather than just wanting to live.
the point of a proper vessel was to have them 'empty' the pale king fucked up
I also wonder what killed bugs in the Citadel
well no i'd argue the knight is perfectly suited for being the new hollow knight
the knight has no will of its own, its just mindlessly doing its job 🥀
because their 'will' is to contain the radiance
TK is NOT HOLLOW!! WE ARE NOT DOING THIS AGAIN!!!!!
Lace is likely
Also just Silk
It's still a will, so something Rad can infect
no mind to think, no voice to cry mercy
i didn't say they were hollow
Silk just rezzes them why would silk grand kill them
It rezzes them the same way a necromancer would 
The Ghost was equally bad, as it had a will. The issue is, it was confronted with it's origin and embraced it (because we love powerups) instead of shunning it. Which is why it was chosen to represent the void instead of simply being a vessel
All of the vessels have a mind and a will
Yea i think they were exprimenting on her in some way for silk but she broke contaiment and killed everyone i think ?
they literally dont thats the whole purpose did you do the abyss ascent 😭
There Is No Hollow Knight
Have you beaten the game
literally every vessel was a failure. Even ours is a failure, it just approached from a different angle, and the best ending? it still fails at the original goal of sealing the radience. Because instead it eats it.
hollow knight
looks inside
"there is no hollow knight!"
hollow knight silksong
looks inside
the appearance of The Hollow Knight is contentious at best
Killing it is a better outcome than sealing it, it's just pk didn't know they could do that
Because they thought they knew better.
its goal is to stop the radiance, hence why there are multiple endings
Can we get a Hollowness expert in here to explain this I’m too tired
remember. the Ghost had a flash game as a sort of prequel to hollow knight. It had grown it's own reasoning and direction without input from the pale king
hollow knight
looks inside
full of radiance
It literally had a different perspective than what was raised for the others. So yeah, of course it tired something different
Hungry Knight is NOT canon I can't believe I have to say this 😭
hungry knight mentions in lore talk we have truly hit rock bottom
yes
if we start digging we can reach the abyss
Have you beaten act 3
get a shovel
also unrelated: I have now tried all three of the silkshot versions.
we're already here
OG is the superior.
with the way SS is structured the only canon ending is sister of the void right
still havent found a use for the architect's key im going to keep searching 🤑
Posting Sherma's song lyrics here in case someone wants
Pi Na So Mi Ma Ni Se Da Na Fun Su Low Ba Fa Ri Do La Si Ma Net Do Ni Pwana Voo Ri Net
🎶 🎶 🎶
Maybe I DONT KNOW ANYMORE
Yes and Lace memory can be seen in one of the labs thiking about her mom creator or eva there was a person locked ina pod
near the architect's room there's a door lmao
wait what
like up and to the left
Literally a door up and to the left.
I assume it's another "all endings are canon" moment
you literally just
me when im stupid 😨
No she took over the Kingdom and started turning everyone into puppets after she got betrayed by Weavers so that she wouldn't be betrayed again
u think dlc is gonna be free again or is it going to be $5 a pop
Might be free
tbf the only two HK dlc i'd pay for r like
Grimm Troupe and Godhome icl
https://gyazo.com/d79eb9bc2ee5ff2bb0eff4e4a2bcf6b6 weaver silkshot the best.
lifeblood and hidden dreams aren't really dlc but rather just post-release patches
the content in them feels more 'oh yeah this was probably unfinished on game launch or smth'
how did they betray her ?
any mentions of rune rage being buffed? its super situational and kinda badd against anything that isnt standing still with a big hitbox
They ran away from Pharloom
Because from the moment they understood the weakness of their flesh it disgusted them, so they chose to take her silk for themselves to give themselves immortal bodies, the silk bound their soul to their new perfect metal shells clearly /s
makes sense whos "butterflies" we see us guiding throught eh game ?
They're silkmoths.
i wonder what the complete edition of SS will be called..
We have Hollow Knight: Voidheart surely they wont call it Silkheart right
Honestly I think they're just bugs, not really guided by anyone
like... the item?
is there only one ending in act 3?
yes
Hollow Knight: Silksoul (because Silk Soul will be DLC haha right Team Cherry)
we see them at the start freeing us then we see them again in the start flying upwards tehn we see them few time through the game and then most clearly in the mist there is something going on with silk moths im just gonna assume lace or somethig
Wait why didn’t Hornet run back to Hallownest and grab one of Ze’mer’s limitless supply of Everblooms
they should add a postgame after true ending where we can leave and walk endlessly for 100 hours to get back to hallownest
also do we know what's up with the trees? why are trees so freaky in hk
Dlc will have to kick up the grandmother silk a few notches to make her a proper threat in a boss fight
Because even in Hallownest the white lady says the everblooms pale in comparison to the original.
i think its balanced around the fact that the cursed ending exists currently
Okay but if you have 500 and one of them can one-shot the Shade Lord I’m sure you could take out a lake of void with them
They might just be attracted by our Silk and that's why they free Hornet
makes sense
I mean. Hornet gets one from her Memories. I assume that's also not gonna be the best
It's full power, but fleeting.
I checked to whole map and I'm missing this part, does anyone know how to get to the bottom part?
drink venomed fleabrew while wearing the anklets
Real answer is because Hallownest is probably damn far and it'd have taken a lot of time to find those, something she didn't really have
they would lose potency on the way there have you SEEN the outside surface lol, its way "easier" to just summon one
use sprint pin you got from it and run through it again
Yeah I went there. My hands don’t like me
I did this like eight times and it never worked lmao
Nice! Is there only a relic there?
hornet mentions grandmother silk as a figure that she wont feel at ease unless she defeats or something
dont remember whats there probs a relic
she doesnt want to leave
Yeah only a harp
GMS is actively resisting the Void in hope to save Lace
its few things 1 she will be chased down again 2 flower will wilt on the way they are very fragile 3 she dosnt wanna live kingdom because she feels duty bound
yeah well i kicked lace's ass twice so skill issue grandma try better next time 😼
Hornet doesn't want to leave because she knows how quickly the Void could destroy it and sees that her memories are the only viable option
keep in mind hornet will mention that she wont feel at ease unless she kills whatever lies at the top of the citadel in act 1
so like.
We're talking about Act 3
Everblooms are only important to act 3
Did you try taking the yellow soup drugs to make yourself faster
No that’s a good idea
reminder that Hallownest as well is probably
weeks, months or even years of travelling away
I just realized silksong is non canon if you go with the sealed siblings ending in HK
honestly.
question though
what was up with the white butterfly at the beginning?
I kind of wish we could get the snare setter back in act 3
Technically Silksong isnt canon if you die in the first 10 minutes of Hollow Knight 
we dont know probs eiter lace eva or someone else would be my bet as they do guide through few in game secitions
does hornet require sustinence? logic would point to no but she CAN ingest things
She says she doesn't really need to eat or sleep, but it brings her comfort.
got me there ig
I want to see a dlc where Radiance and Silk mother Mix into a horror abomination
but like why would she even have those functions if they serve no purpose thats not evolutionarily viable 
for anyone who has played the full game already, is there anything related to the radiance? like did it get fully contained?
Nope
naur
Because she's half Weaver, Half Wyrm, the Wyrmblood gives her the ability to live without, the weaver side enjoys what they evolved to do.
so its got no connections to HK at all?
It does in a big way
Outside of Hornet's existence and true ending, no
Just bcuz the radiance isnt there doesnt mean the worlds arent connected
is it a major spoiler? or like a small spoiler
I rly wanna know rn
Major spoiler
Major Spoiler ahead to end of act 3 ||you hunt down the ever bloom and at some point Hk helps up to rescue you from the abyss||
hornet is from hollow knight so it does have connections
THE ||GHOST|| IS NOT THE ||HK||
silly goose
I KNOW ITS HARD GETTING USED TO
the first pilgrim we meet.. what is their name?
THIS IS THE HK
actually that's the pure vessel sir
Ackshually thats Pure Vessel
THIS IS THE GHOST
doesn't even know boss names smh
knight also works well
is that hornet? is she ok?
THIS IS THE GHOST
You mean The Knight
objection! thats hearsay!
No, that’s Ghost/Little Ghost/The Knight/The Vessel/Thou Cringer/Smallest of the Small
THEY'RE THE SAME.
You're blue now
Smallest of the small
no THK isnt a pure vessel silly goose
I shot you up this one Hollow knight also works as a name as it is thematic and purpose of a title of play on that fact that you can call multiple character hk
How did you OD on plasmium
Get 9 blue mask shards
There’s blue mask shards????
95 hours in silksong and i still cant use tools correctly 💔
No, just steroids.
dont worry mutiple hk streamers heal at the worst time and never use tools lol
6 from tool, the others from blue breakable thingies that drop blue flies you kill to get more blue masks
i take permanent psychic damage when people dont double jump to heal
Same
the contrast between plasmium in Silksong and lifeblood in Hollow Knight is kind of crazy
or dont heal when they have the chance but instead wait to be 1 mask away lol
... there are differences?
Got through silksong only tool I used was the stabby stab and wanderers
Pretty sure theyre the same
No, I mean the way they’re presented
What about Shaman, is that one not good
To our knowledge now lifeblood has always acted like this its just the infection had a higher presence
Shaman is awesome
I used Shaman for that flea juggle minigame
the stone of the shaman in silksong when 💔
it's pretty strong with the shield charm and trobbio's mirrors
Voltvyrm drop
shaman stone silksong is real?
That's probably what the purple electric charm thing is
I'm bad with the names lol
i hope trobbio gets run over by a car
If you use Pale Knives, Cross-Stitch, and Rune Rage with Shaman you can feel like Pure Vessel
the only issue i take with crest of the witch is
no utility slots
but i have the attachment slot from eva so who cares
how do you get the right part?
I like the needle strike for Witch shares same property as Cyclone though where spamming the attack button extends it a bit.
I didnt test this but do all the crests do the same damage needle wise?
for the last time we are not ascending 💔
also what i didnt know that
does it give reduced gravity too?
one question, if I get the witch crest before getting into the abyss can I play normally the game?
pretty sure they do at 0 upgrades, idk about how upgrades affect it tho
I didnt try enough to see if the gravity is also reduced a bit, just wanted to see if it shared similar properties to Cyclone.
ic
like curse lifted or
ig thats not really relevant, pretty sure the game goes on as usual
yup, I've read somewhere that people cannot go to the abyss if they get the crest before it
why would that be the case
I don't know, but i wouldn't like to miss an entire act for a crest
i have finished all the game except act 3
Is ||grand mother silk|| ( act 2 final boss ) a pale being like PK or WL
I would purge the curse I dont see any reason to why you'd be penalized for doing so that just sounds dumb.
Even then if something does break saves have built in rollback saves this time
dont get it and just ignore it you can ge it after you beat the game via loading a save
ooh, that's true, i forgot about that
i might to this
maybe this is a bug but i did the whole curse quest during act 2 and everything proceeded perfectly fine.
i think i'll continue the game until the beginning of act 3 and then get the crest
you dont even need a to copy it after the end the game will load you to right before the last boss
If you're really paranoid I would probably just rollback the save and move on but eh
So you are before act 3 ?
i haven't arrived yet, but i can
if you are before act 3 you can get it whatever beat they boss with curse then load back the save it gives you and then get rid of it you can also make a copy of a save if you feel like it
I'll try, thx!
3 queens is canon im genuinely in shock and awe this game is so good
Its so peak
What's this about not being able to do act 3 if you get witch crest? I got it and did act 3 just fine fyi
I have the witch crest and i went to Act 3 Just fine
Its only if youre cursed and haven't removed the parasite that it'll lock you to the cursed ending
Until you remove the parasite through a fun and not at all disturbing method
Oh yea I forgot that the parasite just immediately takes control you dont get a say if you fight GMS with it lo
who is the third one? is it gms?
Is it not Herra, Vespa and White Lady?
I lost mine because I botched the save thing lo
vepsa was cut content though? did they say something about it in silksong?
Yea, sequence in act 3.
Save thing?
Save scum. Just want achievement and to see what's in it.
I ain't gonna brag shit bout it
Get in and get out basically.
they added it back in the game for act 3
and its peak
oh, yeah if your game broke because of save scumming that's on you lol
Oh it didnt break
I just didnt realize I replaced my files with the Defeated ones because I am very stupid with files sometimes
Saw i think lobos do it then complain about issues lmao
Its completely on me not the game lol
always make a copy of a file you want to change in other free folder
i haven't gotten to act 3 yet since i have no idea how to get there, doing all wishes just sounds a bit lazy to me
i've just been rawdoggin Steel soul.
and you basically need all wishes and 60% game completion to make the quest pop up
its not all wishes but most of them most important part is getting almost all the fleas you can miss like 2
Once I seen everything in Steel Soul and get the 100% achievement thing for it I'm not touching it again
wishes and fleas give the most % at a time yeah
you dont need all wishes and dont need all deliveries, you can ignore delvieries but you do need to get a home and build up all the towns
i think you just need 60%
and the fleas of course
god. there's only one thing im genuinely worried about in steel soul
and that's the abyss escape.
I dont remember it being particularly hard
no real way to practice though
You can do it
You did everything Else so far, Harder Plattforming Challenges, Combat Encounters and Exploration.
You can do this too
honestly platforming and fighting aren't that hard because you can take your time with them
it's the time crunch while doing percision platforming that's gonna suck
I think it wasnt too hard for me because I was basically trained from playing Ori lmao
PoP XD
Ori is great
anyway. officially in act 3 now on Steel Soul. Time to gird my loins. PoP isn't harder because again, you can take your time. Honestly I redid PoP after my first clear (of silksong) and it felt so easy comparatively. what with shade cloak giving iframes and suchj
nah path of pain you got tight clear way to go in SS sometimes you need to have faith in fac that there is a ledge
Mostly meant about the time crunch with platforming lol
i trained from that one mask shard in far fields
that was brutal
Oh yea that escape sequence surprised me
Harpoon, double jump, dash for extra distance, all these tools make it easier than HK imo
Ya that was the most painful experience I’ve had. I at least wanted a tool for that
I'd thought there just be 1 escape sequence
a little annoyed that you can't have full masks going into act 3 as one is locked behind a act 3 wish though aaaa
Even that one area above The Cradle i had little trouble with
Ss on average usually has harder platforming than HK but I dont believe anything in Ss exceeds Path of Pain quite yet
And can't u just save and quit if you know ur gonna die in steel soul for the escape sequence
That + save scum if you fuck that up and on PC
Can consoles mess with saves more easily yet?
Is there a reward for steel soul?
Background for main menu
Achievements
Ah
Bragging rights
(I prefer Surface tbh)
Oh thats cool
Thank god I don’t have friends
Lace finna kill the steel soul grind for me if I ever get that far
Just dont get hit, ez
people that beat steel soul are build diffrent
Ya hollow knight was way easier to complete
Maybe, they might just use mods and cheat to get it
Legit I doubt
A week before Silksong launched I actually completed a Steel Soul run in HK without menu/save scumming on the first go lol
Cant wait for Silksong godmaster dlc
You can find Eva as as soon as you have the needolin
(Act 1)
And you need to find her in Act 2 If you want to Go to Act 3
Are Widow and First Sinner the same person?
I'm in ACT 2
No?
One is Roaming around in Bellhardt and the other is sealed in the Slab
Both are weaver, but Not the Same Person
Okay.
time to lock in. I'm about to pop the lid on Steel Soul Abyss climb. wish me luck
You can do it :)
Well I ask because First Sinner uses the Widow boss music theme reused and when you die in the first sinner boss fight you don't actually die - it's almost as if it's a dream or a projection of some sort.
I Just interpretted it as a Combat Trial.
He doesnt want to kill you.
He Just wants to Test your skill
Also they share voice lines I think? Either they do or they're extremely similar.
Cheeks, CLENCHED
Was easier than expected because I completely lucked out with a superjump positioning
right after you get out of the spot with the breakable roof, If you superjump on the lip on the left side you have enough silk to soar past a lot of the mechanics and still have enough to do the final leap (pending you have maxed silk going in)
First sinner is a prisoner that tests you and you consume his essence for a power boost like you do with some characters, Widow has his weaver mask form removed and is stuffed in a unfitting form that losses connnection the moment you defeat it
Widow is interesting lore-wise, because they're the only Weaver still walking around in Pharloom and they're clearly loyal to Silk, even after the explicitly horrible binding they've suffered.
still not clear to me what happened between weavers and mother
Same I don’t think I understood much about the story
i know first sinner is imprisoned for apostacy, so she turned her back on Silk
why though
Wouldn't is be reasonable to presume that Widows Weaver Mask that was removed, First Sinners Mask? It clearly broken and would explain why Widow looks the way they do - on top of the already existing similarities in attacks, voice lines, and the reusing of Widows Boss Theme in First Sinners fight. I feel it could be explained sort of in a similar vein as how in HK that we got to fight TKH in an earlier more prime form as the Pure Vessel.
What does the mask even do 😭
The surface doesn't have a map, right?
no
They're only the first sinner- the Weavers are all Sinners in Silk's eyes. That's why they're all dead. Silk was imprisoned by the Weavers for a long time from what I've been able to observe- maybe it had something to do with all the music in Pharloom keeping her asleep?- but at some point all the silk they were weaving into the bugs of Pharloom gave Mother Silk too much power, and she overthrew them.
where was it said weavers imprisoned her
Do we have any idea of what the "sin" of the First Sinner was?
I'm not sure, it was definitely a lore block somewhere.
But it makes sense if you look at how the Weavers are compared to Silk. Hornet's notes on the Surgeon's entry says that the Citadel's use of silk "unknowingly granted many minds to the monarch".
So it seems like the Weavers were never on Silk's side, and they must have done something to draw her ire enough for her to hunt down not just them but every single person who could possibly be related to them.
The exception to this is Widow, who is called a "Fanatic" by her defeat achievement.
do you think the snail shamans were the civilization that worshipped the void?
and also why were the weavers in the abyss?
The Weavers seem to have been in the Abyss for the same reason the Pale King was- they're both scientists, and the Abyss is a Big Thing they want to study.
thats fair
Making tacos i think
weavers are very academic in many senses so its not unreasonable for them to have a station there
is there any info in the journal entry?
would it be far fetched to say she is trans? i unironically think this
Are there any male Weavers, on that note?
on the room detailing the crimes and absolutions of some people they detained the first sinners crime was "something long forgotten" or something like that
Widow and the First Sinner are both referred to in the feminine by Hornet's notes.
i dont know but i dont see why there wouldnt be?
unless theyre androgenous
no thats not the word i meant like
they could have both male and female organs
it says on her cell, "guilty of the sin of apostacy"
and from the visions it seems she realized something about the mother and turned her back on her
Apostasy is renouncing a religious belief
i dont think thats her, the first sinners absolution was "never" i think and she was bound pretty well
hmmm
what is this guy
ill go there right now and check actually hold on guys
oh no....
"First of the First". Might've been one of if not the oldest Weavers to exist.
this has to be hers
i forgot ||broodmother|| existed lol
this is actually something weird
i dont think theyre just pulling this out of their asses for convenience
but it didnt make sense to me
and also the fact the shamans disappear after, are they void?
or some relation to the void
The Shamans are almost certainly not Void, especially since they use Soul-based magic.
But they study it.
no shamans have an anti-cocaine addiction
basically they sniffed too much magic powder and turned voidesque
so the spell just required them to disappear or something?
Soul is just life energy, they used all of theirs up.
makes sense

Someone just pointed out even more fucked up stuff about Citadel
what
The end of the pilgrim’s road deliberately leads to Underworks
What does the shamans want ?
They are sending pilgrims to go work in the coal mines till they die wtf
Yes that elevator is only designed to go down
There’s no upward shaft
the whole pilgrimage thing is just to get more maintenance staff lol
Maintenance and test subjects.
I mean it kinda makes sense, to even make the pilgrimage you are forbidden weapons
cocaine
WHAT omg ur right
You just risk your life getting there and work until you die or you adapt to the Silk and join the Choir
Or don’t adapt to the Silk and become a Dreg husk
It's all a scam.
Pretty much
Ah yes, the children yearn for the mines.
We truly judged PK too harshly
At least he had free benches.
At least his society wasn’t as classist as this one
Nah but honestly what does the shamans want ? Why are they happy they destroyed the kingdom 😭
They want to see the Void do things.
cocaine (magcic) addictions
The Shamans actually want equality or at least that’s the vibe I get from Caretaker
they wanted the monarch of Pharloom and the Citadel brought down
they succeeded
the hidden recipe they have suggests they're pretty evil
He seems to think powerful bugs overlook the common people just because they’re powerful
the one that involves torturing live bugs
Until Hornet proves she cares by taking the time to grant the people’s wishes
like a genie
The snare I believe was only intended to kill SM and free Pharloom
Instead it angered the Void which was not the intent
Who’s the widow ? And the first sinner ? And why mother silk is so bad ? Too many questions with no answers 🤓
it failed because of lace, GMS kept fighting the void because lace was trapped with her
Widow is a Weaver who was ex-communicated by the Weavers and had her silk bound within her shell
Let's be honest, the Pale King was doing amazing until a fellow god threw an absolute temper tantrum over him basically doing a better job to the point said god's followers decided to follow him instead of them
First Sinner was the first Weaver and the first Weaver to turn away from the SM
He was doing alright, technically the Moths screwed the pooch with Rad by abandoning her for him
Did the first Weaver turn away from Silk any more than the other Weavers did? Because they did something to make her hate them, and she's not referred to in any of their writings as something divine.
She's "a source of silk" first.
Mother Silk has abdonment issues that’s why she’s evil
Anyone has any ideas how to get the ending in which we become the new mother silk?
Her creations abandoned her so she made a fake daughter but still wants more children
Bind SM
Yeah, and in hindsight, I can't blame them. PK offered them free will and even status as gravekeepers and spiritualists. The Radiance offered... servitude? Mind hive? I can't blame them for ditching.
That's the default ending, I mean the one where we become the one that controls the bugs
Don’t trigger Soul Snare and don’t be cursed
That first part is incorrect
The moths always had free will
i would vote for PK a third time
so ||is lifeblood actually EVIL or is plasmium just it's weird cousin??? at first i just thought it had a different name because different people who discovered the same thing gave it different names, but now i'm not sure||
PK did nothing wrong imo
i thought theyre the same thing and its fine for it to be evil everything is
there is no force of magic which people cant get addicted to in this universe
I’m sorry there’s more lifeblood zombies
Why they abandoned her ?
well yea they're literally the first thing you see when you enter the wormways in act 3 lol
pk did many things wrong, but he was at least not motivated by a selfish motive
She lied to them and basically helped create the Citadel’s warped view of the Weavers being Gods
I think the Weavers might have just been awful. We saw the Citadel, and they made that place what it is.
This is incorrect
hallownest's currency somehow is stable even after the fall of the entire kingdom
that has to count for something (pharloom sure can't say that)
The Citadel bugs do not actually know anything about the Weavers
They only know what silk is
The Architect and the Vault Keeper both serve Hornet only for her being a descendent of the Weavers, though.
economy can't hyperinflate if nobody is left to destabilize it 👍
Correct, they worship the Weavers as Gods
Even if the common people didn't know about the Weavers, they were definitely in charge in some capacity.
no but pharloom is fucking ridiculous they genuinely have anti homeless benches
they used to know, there's texts in pharloom of bugs praising weavers
But they don’t actually know anything about the Weavers
oh yeah pharloom sucks big time
The Seamstress knows about them and she's more 'common'
Yes they worship them as Gods
So basically she wanted her and her child’s to be seen as God but they didn’t want so they abandonne her,then she became crazy right ? So why we are fighting widow and first sinner if we are in the « same team »
the hostile architecture is unreal
Being Worshipped as Gods was the lie
Widow is working for Silk, the First Sinner is just testing us.
They don’t actually know anything beyond their use of silk
Correct on the first part
Oh so she’s still with her
why does seth lose his memory
Thanks all of you I understand more of the lore now
though all the texts on weaver graves say they now care for the local bugs, "no longer food" and etc, maybe that was after they abandoned GMS
Widow resisted the Weaver Rebellion she fights for the SM
oh hey, he does live
where do you find him afterwards, somewhere in Greymoor?
First Sinner is just testing Hornet to see if she’s worthy of binding her
yea hes just resting at a rock in greymoor, saying he is newly born and has set out to explore the world, he lost his memory which i dont know why
I just started act 3 I hope there is much more lore telling in it
It's why she's a "fanatic" while the First Sinner is an "apostate"; Widow was loyal to Silk while the First Sinner and presumably the rest of the Weavers left her.
Oh you have no idea
I needed to stop bcs of work and stopped right before going to the abyss…
seems like he was bound to be the guardian of Nyleth's shrine, and with the power taken from it he was released
guess he forgot he was ever bound
greymoor, then shellwood and finally fleatopia where he goes and beats all your minigame records
There’s a Birthplace equivalent for one
He reminds me a lot of Quirrel in that way.
So have fun with that
yeah, or Brumm/Nymm
eh, he's welcome to them - hated that stuff
In regards to lifeblood, do we just assume the reason it doesn’t affect the Knight is for similar reasons it doesn’t affect Hornet?
Oh wait I forgot someone
could also be that they're void deep down
Who’s really phantom ? Except of being so badass
They're both Higher Beings in some part, and either resistant or immune is what I assumed.
prototype Lace
Phantom is called a "being strung from silk" and was slowly dying due to lack of maintenance.
So that’s why we saw them talking ? (I forgot what they were saying lol)
did we? I must have missed that part
I just remember form their journal descriptions
You need to use the music before the phantom fight a you can see them talking
Isn't that just the normal thought text for using the Needolin?
Free of whatever was keeping him there as the guardian, I think. It's also sort of a symbolic rebirth for Seth Goldman. He's gone from here, but he exists forever in Pharloom. It's very sweet
Or maybe that’s not him
In regards to lifeblood, has anyone found anything more in the game with it? Any lifeblood core-like area? I've found that 9 lifeblood masks turns your health into lifeblood which regenerates, I've killed the apprentice, and the alchemist looks like he's on his last legs. I wonder if that's the end of it.
oh cool, yeah, that looks like Lace
aigh, french though, been so long...
It's the Phantom in the box, with Lace outside of it.
Oui oui baguette
something about breaking
it is so sad solaire of astora threw his children into the abyss
Yeah but I don’t remember the other sentences. I’ll go back to it later it’s in bile water
my favorite part of hollow knight 1 is when you make it to the end of path of pain and you get go confront solaire
Silk seemed obsessed with creating children with silk
first the Weavers, who eventually turned against her
Phantom as a kind of prototype
finally Lace
it seems that in hollow knight 2 every character is stuck ina goofy vs pluto situation
if u drop rosary you are goofy but if u drop only shell then u are pluto
I don’t get why lace helped us to trap SM
Spite, she hates her mom.
yeah
Oh I though she was warning us from her (first fight) and protecting her in the second fight
For all that Silk wants children, she is always dissatisfied with them.
though she seemed to go to great lengths to safeguard Lace
I'm fairly sure Lace fights Hornet just for her own enjoyment.
At first Lace seems to resent Hornet as a kind of replacement daughter (from Lace's perspective, at least)
that's seemingly why she broke Hornet loose in the first place, to keep her from being brought to the Citadel
I need to just say I adore Pharloom as a setting. We're had so many post-apocalyptic, near-apocalyptic, destroyed, desolate, etc. type settings that its insanely refreshing to have a world and society that's both functioning and isn't completely punked at the end.
who is seth goldman and why is he related to hk? ive looked him up and he seems like a random business man
it was a 'make a wish situation'
Seth was terminally ill and was given the character Seth by TC as part of its fulfillment
sadly he passed away a few years ago
oh okay, thanks for letting me know
(Spoiler for act 3 VERY end game)
its kinda cool that after getting || Everbloom we can actually swim on Void and its all good ||
Those areas are for npc and queastlines available only on steel soul mode
Only because of Everbloom’s light
WL explains what we already know about pale light sources like that being able to tame the void like the lighthouse in HK
Aint no way
Green prince spoiler ||doomed yaoi in my funny bug game?||
Aint no way
These vibes🥸
This is the wokest game of all time
these fellas are just having a chat
3 higher beings just vibing
So, is the knight defeating absolute radiance the official ending, including giving the fella the flower? It seems so to me
Ok probably asking for a spoiler here but gonna do it anyway
Does the game ever imply or explain what the Last Judge is or what his role in Pharloom is/was?
probably border control or smth
I think it's ambiguous whether its ending 3 or 4
even with ||Void Given Focus appearing||
that might just, like, be evoking what they could become
so silksong is a sequel or a prequel?
sequel
sequel
Stupid question but what element of the game make you say that
Im assuming this guy is referring to Karmelita, their old queen
super secret final ending
Also poor ant, he looks really tired and injured
I think he was a royal guard
After act 3 or it’s another ending
the end of Act 3
||the Knight shows up in their Lord of Shades state, has to happen after the events of the first game||
I've encountered other grey and red striped ants, im guessing they are docile
except one but im not gonna say it cuz spoilers lol
Thanks for the spoil banner I won’t read it and discover it by myself. At least I know I’m on the right path
so if the cannon ending is embrace the void, what happen to beetween hollow knight and Hornet?
that guy was dead when I found him, dang
Yeah i was sad when i returned back to him to buy the remaining items
Karmelita has to be the best boss in the game tbh
Not gonna lie, the reason we gather here is either want to understand
the lore or hangout...
By the way, is Weaver supposed to be able to grant wishes?
I just go for NG+ and hearing Druid Moss saying: "You are like Weaver, right? The one that grant wishes?"
And Hornet just goes confuse
Oh absolutely, possibly top 10 hollow knight bosses overall
Hornet is a weaver (by blood sort of) and she's going around granting everyone's wishes (the quests)
glad my only spoiler is her name.
Is she graceful?
I know but I can thank him for putting a spoil banner so I can discover it by myself ?
Oooohhh..
So Weaver function is literally grant wishes?
NEAT
Her music and the fight are topnotch
Better than || Cogwork Dancer?||
Oh there is ng+ ? 
yes imo
Yeahhh..
The one life run
best in the game for me
no, that's not it
'wish' in this sense is just the requests that people have
Hornet is fulfilling their requests
she's not a genie
Bile water gonna kill me mutiple times I know it
I will never do steelsoul for this game
which is sad, because I wanted to see the steelbugs
Im just waiting for someone to get act 3 in steelsoul to tell me there is a whole area locked off for steelsoul
I do kind of want to see if Styx gets replaced with someone else
there is a boss only for steelsoul in act 2 already
I like that Hornet insists all the things she does is just her duty, and saying she's not kind or i dont want your thanks, but like, the things and requests you're fulfulling are kindness lmao
I have a working theory that || he Haunting was used to prevent Void corruption ||
Hell back at Bonebottom, when talking to Flick, she said "so this is kindness?" Like yes?????
I’ll do it for you
(I’ll spam weapon)
godspeed
Can anyone tell me in which rooms pre and post Widow you can find broken Harp looking world objects? I think we can use Needolin on them for more lore
omg they literally warned u why would u even click on it BEFORE act 3??
there is act 3?, how i can get it?
I only know that you have to complete all the wall wishes. Especially at the ||Songclave||
Then there's some item to gather that I still don't know where to get it.
okay thanks
I started act 3 and I didn’t click on it lol. I just wanted to know if there is much more lore telling at the end of it
oh well you couldve just searched it up but thats fine, im pretty sure you'll forget about it
I have a small memory I’ll forget it 🤓
me too 
Anyone?
So whats with the mist
this seems common in people that play this game i had seen a streamer jump into a starting hole like 5 times to checks whats there
Did hornet become a pale being after binding gmother silk?
dem I'm search for that too
I meant like the pale king a proper one instead of a half one
shes like half pale being gmoder silk ending just buffs her
Imma just try get true ending now bye
Ooohh... Like in proper power and divinity?
Then yes she is.
do you happen to have an alternate link for these? getting 404 on the original link
Cool weaver queen is a cool title as well
i mean it is a bad ending since she wants to save everone and go home
I kinda already spoiled about her divinity but since I know HK it's not THAT surprising.
But I'll try to grasp till Act III first before knowing more. SS is too deep even for me.
Imma also go for true ending now no flea map is pissing me the fuck off
In fact, I don't know we can get multiple ending since I play blind lmaoo~
Maybe I'll try it in my 2nd playthrough
Just ask: is true ending require something that may spoil me while I'm still in Act II?
no
Few things are clear with hindsight, but if you figure it out based on that, then it's not so much you being spoiled and more you being very perceptive to the clues.
Understandable.
I'll continue playing blind then.
And honestly, that'd probably just make it more satisfying when you're proven right.
I see...
I'll try what I believe will make something happen then.
Recommendation then uh get out of the spoiler chat
i havent played hk in a while and dont remember all the endings so this is question of ignorance but which ending is now "canon" to silksong
is it dream no more
or is it up for debate
It’s a debate between DNM and Godhome endings
that makes sense
People are arguing Delicate Flower though because of the importance of the Everbloom
id personally argue against that considering hornet has seemingly One encounter with it previously in silksong
youd expect her to have Some more recent encounters with it in a delicate flower timeline wouldnt you
maybe im just misinterpreting how those scenes in silksong played out
Anyone working on discovering the ending in which || Hornet becomes the new Grand Mother Silk ||? I think it's related to (NPC later in the game) || Mask Maker as in the ending cinematic hornet's mask is a bit different but still resembels hers ||
There is a ||lore relic in the void that says the no will no mind to break took place like LONG LONG AGO so we cant even be sure about the timeline||
its just basic ending where you defeat her without anything lol
No man, everyone thinks that, it's the cinematic in which || Hornet starts screaming and controls the bugs of Pharloom with the web ||
Yeah, it’s the one where Hornet grows like 3 more pairs of legs
yea thats the basic one
is that really an ending ?
one ending yea
no no i mean the one dexter is talking about
I don’t think the one Dexter is talking about exists

About Meloo:
Meloo is a channel that produces Guide...
do we have to spoiler here is that a thing
im Assuming that ending is probably related to beating the game while cursed but i havent seen that one yet so im not sure
Not that one, I am aware of that one
oh huh there is another one here
||thats not hornet that is silk grandma winning||
thats other ending yea
I mean probably, but how do we get there
i would just try not cliking when you defeat her
I've stood in that screen 10 minutes
I think it's related to Mask Maker since when you take off his mask he alludes to the fact that you would make a great monarch
Well... since the game is hot for discussion I just don't want to miss the hype.
Even though I'm very sure even after 6 months, this channel will still alive with lore, I can't guarantee we're not gonna be there or
too busy to visit again.
It’s possible the cutscene is a removed ending considering that there’s no achievement tied to that particular ending
And I am thinking maybe he can get us a new a new mask somehow, the one as in the ending
hollow knight had achievements for all its endings didnt it?
Correct. So does Silksong
Including the fakeout beginning of act 3 one
have you played playing the needolin but a normal non binding song ?
I can't || I will trap her for ACT 3 ||
or play needolin as defeated if thats a thing
I’m just saying, it’s probably a dlc cutscene
a site says you need to play needolin instead of binding
Have you gotten to act 3 yet?
the input for which ending after beating her is just a simple either/or button prompt theres no level of complexity to it
Because if not, get out before you get spoiled lmao
That's the ending for || getting into act 3 after you've done the rest of the game ||
I did it all expect the mentioned ending yea
i think its safe to assume the ending in the video was cut
no no its also part of ending you look for
theres no achievement for it and seemingly no obvious way to actually access it, even the cursed secret ending has an achievement attached
and HK had achievements for all of its endings so the precedent isnt there for one to be missing either
I wouldnt be surprised if it were missing
the ending is cool looking though wonder why it was cut
It can still come in future content updates
i do wonde rif we can still get it
(If there isnt already a way to get it now)
have you tried playing needoline to the boss without killing her ?
TC probably ran out of time when they announced the release date. They did state the only reason they released now was because they felt they waited way too long and needed to stop
like during a fight
Yeah but it doesn't do anything
I will try again I guess maybe I need to survive longer
some enemies take longer i would be suprised if final boss took few tries
ive done that it doesnt do anything
if you watch the video the extra ending is actually just a continuation of the basic ending so im assuming they just cropped the cutscene ingame for whatever reason
or something to that affect
Nah it's rather different
Is there an NPC in the game that's obssesed with masks besides Mask Maker?
dont think so, i think you're looking into it too much though
Mask Maker has got a few screws loose
by the
way I got the maskmater his delivery and all he said was thanks
no new lore
Maybe its a steel soul ending ?
Hmm, possible, but then the achievement thing still holds
There’s no achievement tied to the ending
people have done steel soul runs already and havent said anything afaik
its most likely cut content
stell soul does|| seem to have new npcs so maybe idk||
idk some videso call it alt ending its probs something obvious
does it really? thats cool actually
Those videos datamined it, so… yeah, take that with a grain of salt
The game has three endings, right? Normal, Cursed, & the one where you get to Act 3?
uhh yes
In fact, the only reason we know it exists is because of datamining and nothing else
oh really? well there you go
did we datamine all ending conditions ?
that stuffs a bit harder to get than a video file id assume
im not into unity stuff though so idk
so like
these guys are what the ||grand mother of silk|| used to make the ||weavers||?
Pretty much impossible unless you decompile the entire game, and that’s a slog
as seen in the vision after the ||first sinner||'s bossfight
so what did the first sinner even do to sin ?
Called GMS a liar. Basically heresy
you literally can't as on the final hit, the needolin button is replaced with trap, and if you stab the head without having that setup, you can't do anything 'but' bind. You are automatically connected to the head.
I could make like some theory where first sinner is Widow or some crazy shit then write 10 h lore video explaning myself
Widow literally dies to you though before you even reach First Sinner…
but you can play diffrent songs when on her head have you tried that
yea and we fight sinners memory
Not to mention, the literal giant cage with seals
Uh… I think you’re misinterpreting the FS fight by a lot
You enter her cage/cell and bind her
it's on russian but these guys' desctiption says that hornet seeked relationships but her partners' lifes were always shorter than hers
you cant play different songs
i honestly dont remember much of the area after a while
now the real question is
did hornet canonically bang
Yep, correct. She’s got an elf lifespan
isn't she un-aging?
She might also be immortal, but we don’t really know there
No clue
you can
She definitely was a baby at some point
true
no i didnt you do this you go into a memory not her herself
and widow had her mask taken away
her "when i was little" chimes in in descriptions of enemies is so sweet
You literally wake her…
also, i love her interactions with the green prince
Like, go watch the entire fight
Yeah, I’m not about to indulge in arguing against poor video comprehension. Watch the damn fight
i litterly did i just posted a screen from a video
guys what build should i make with these skills/tools, and which other skills/tools should i get for the build? i REALLY need help because i just made it to blasted steps only yesterday
it wouldnt first time silk fuckery
You should have watched the entire video, but ok, sure, whatever. You only enter dreams in act 3 and you fight her in act 2, so there’s that
