Big spider in that one HK trailer might be responsible

primal nest
#

but that was cut

mild loom
#

i’m excited in the fact that silksong is going to be extending on the stuff in deepnest

trim estuary
primal nest
#

that explains it I guess

primal nest

at least for now

trim estuary
#

I’m saying it could be possibly that spider if we have no other suspects since it’d have to be pretty big to control all those puppets at once

mystic pewter
mild loom
#

the weavers and all that stuff is going to be added into silksong, i hope it’ll have an explanation on what happened there

primal nest
#

yeah

mild loom
#

pffft

primal nest
#

any release date gueses?

high hedge
#

“None of us could catch and eat Sly so we moved away.”

mystic pewter
mild loom
#

well, if fireb0rns video hasn’t been disproved, that’s the best guess we’ve had in awhile

primal nest
#

I understand jsut asking when people think it will come out

normal hinge
mystic pewter
primal nest
#

lol

high hedge
#

Always could

mild loom
#

i like to believe around february of next year, it seems about right ¯_(ツ)_/¯

primal nest
#

i like to bealive never (starts criyng)

high hedge
#

If you say it comes out tomorrow everyday, eventually you’ll annoy everyone be right.

primal nest
#

lol

mystic pewter
#

feb next year would make t the craziest month in a LONG TIME. Elden ring, halo infinite co-op, horizon, maybe even splatoon and then silksong!?

mild loom
#

hell yeah

primal nest
#

could be

mild loom
#

why not add one more

mystic pewter
#

oh yeah and destiny expansion

primal nest
#

Do yall wanna know my guess?

normal hinge
mild loom
primal nest
#

today < x < 2090

#

anywhere in this range sounds about right to me

mild loom
#

they just accidentally deleted the files and they’re hoping we’ll forget about it one day

primal nest
#

(we are not)

trim estuary
#

Well then they’re wrong

mild loom
#

never

#

i’m telling my children about this game god damn it

#

it’ll be a story among men for generations

trim estuary
#

I was gonna use :tuksus: but then I realized I had no nitro zote

primal nest
mild loom
#

moving on /j

primal nest
#

lol

#

I must know why is elder who such an idiot?

#

old man it's not breakfast I dont want pankakes

mild loom
#

cuz, he just fills the arena full of pancakes, how can you expect someone with that many pancakes constantly on the ready to be smart?

mild loom
#

god damn, and he just throws them around

primal nest
#

if anything we can all at least agree gpz is worst boss

mild loom
#

he could just serve them on a plate like a normal person. nope, gotta chuck them at me at high velocity’s until one of us fuckin dies

primal nest
#

you put milk THEN cereal AND THEN the boul

mild loom
trim estuary
primal nest
mild loom
#

even rad markoth isn’t that bad

normal hinge
trim estuary
#

Ok nevermind markoth is worse than zote

mild loom
#

it took me more tries for radiant gpz than markoth

#

nah, cuz zote makes those annoying sounds, which makes it even more awful

#

markoth at least has cool lore n stuff

primal nest
#

and he kills you by stumbling

mild loom
#

markoths arena looks nice

primal nest
#

but the home owner's association decided to take his floor away

mild loom
#

zote? no. zote doesn’t even have a real backstory. he just yells at you when he saves you, and has the most dialogue for no reason

#

no one asked for zote to have the 57 precepts

primal nest
#

preset 58: DONT SAVE ZOTE
self explanatory

mild loom
primal nest
#

no the home owner's associatio ntook away his floorcause he can fly not because he is dead

mild loom
#

that too

#

i can understand why markoth doesn’t have a floor either way

#

zote? no, he doesn’t deserve giant pictures of him, and other zotes constantly surrounding a maiden in distress

primal nest
#

and

#

there are 2 zote fights gpz and the ternal ordeal

mild loom
#

again, correct

#

he wasn’t even chosen by the godseekers to be a god, he forced his way in there

#

his discription is “false god conjured by the lonely”

#

aka, not a real god 😩

buoyant quest
#

Zote slander in the chat? I will not abide by it.

tribal schooner
#

How could you not notice such a butchering idiot. They guy was always squeaking and moaning

#

But you have a point

tawdry valley
#

That song specifically being zotes incessant pride/speech/ignorance

#

Notice the existence of arena stands, but no spectators

opaque sigil
#

EO is probably noncanon, it can happen when Zote's dead (and he died before godseeker even awoke)

#

So he's not intruding or anything

tawdry valley
opaque sigil
#

Tell me how Zote managed to slip in there despite being dead and never attuned with the godtuner zote

opaque sigil
#

He was literally decapitated

warm bone
#

that looks a lot like his head to me tamershrug

pallid flare
#

he isnt looking that great

opaque sigil
#

Doesn't get more dead than that

languid linden
#

Nah what he did is he made something that looked like his head and ran away

#

Like those guys who tried running away from Alcatraz or whatever

trim estuary
opaque sigil
#

Equally dead

#

Is silksong out yet? Are there any news? For a brief moment i saw someone sending a youtube video that looked like something new and or semi importang

Well it looked like a half interesting speculatory video.

#

I doubt it would get put in the announcements channel

cunning geode
#

why would it

languid linden
opaque sigil
#

Random youtubers speculating isn't news

warm bone

🤦‍♂️

dull venture

Does someone have that one gif of Silksong dodging

chrome wave
opaque sigil
#

No it isn't

warm bone
dull venture
#

like the gif where silksong is dodging some white thing

chrome wave
#

Well it doesnt really fit the definition of nothing

opaque sigil
#

It's not news nor is it meaningful info

warm bone
#

Well it doesnt really fit the definition of news either

chrome wave
#

Well its at least not completely uninteresting sometimes

cunning geode
#

this server is run by people who playtest for the game. Anything put in #hk-announcements is direct information about the game series

Thats pretty cool

none of the mods playtest, only the admins

ya know, back when a bunch of the mods had discord saying they were playing silksong

Zoteboat was another one people did

distant saddle
#

woow how did u get silksong

#

u from the future?

#

smart

opaque sigil
#

They just couldn't say no. Because I hypnotized them

nimble radish

isn't ari a robot how did you hypnotize him

languid linden

Damn not all of sspsa fits in your status

burnt topaz

Ari's a cyborg not a robot smh

He was the easiest to break

languid linden

Is zoteboat like a meme or some leaked working title of the threequel?

opaque sigil
#

It's a meme

chrome wave
#

Good to know.

opaque sigil
#

TC isn't planning on doing a third HK game, at least not soon

chrome wave
#

There was mention of hollow knight 2 in a dev ama on some website

opaque sigil
#

If there was it was referring to SS

#

But they probably never called it that

chrome wave
#

I think it was still reffered to as the hornet dlc back then

opaque sigil
#

Find the quote then

chrome wave
#

I gotta find the video where i saw it first tho

opaque sigil
#

And they've said that they're moving on after SS anyways

#

“Well, we have that non-Hollow Knight game that is due to be made,” Gibson says. “It’s been left to lapse, which is just fine. But I think we’re both excited to jump into that.”

burnt topaz
#

for the best honestly, dont want to be stuck in a trap of bug games

chrome wave
#

Bugs are pretty cool

burnt topaz
#

yeah but so are foxes

harsh pendant
#

Is Tammo really a play tester or is that be for drama?

opaque sigil
harsh pendant
#

Eh?

chrome wave
opaque sigil

"Guess who just became a totally real SS playtester"

harsh pendant

didnt mark it as fake beesive

And I don’t notice cursive

If you read like two messages ahead it'd be explicit

languid linden

#

Forgive me for being excited:)

chrome wave
#

Isnt the third Commercial team cherry game supposed to be a 2d zelda esque dungeon crawler with furries or something?

opaque sigil
#

We don't know what it is

#

They haven't said anything about it

chrome wave
#

Well its probably not gonna be a melee centered metroidvania or a metroidvania in general

nimble radish
#

what? furries?

harsh pendant
chrome wave
#

Well idk what else the name fear less fox might be reffering to

burnt topaz
#

i mean, without context, what does hollow knight really imply?

opaque sigil
#

mfw animal in the name means furry somehow

chrome wave
nimble radish
harsh pendant
chrome wave
#

It could be a boar

burnt topaz
#

it could be a foxglove, instead of an animal, its a flower game

chrome wave
#

Whats a foxglove

harsh pendant
#

It’s a glove where you put your fox

burnt topaz
#

a pretty flower, look it up, bees love to go in them

chrome wave
#

Well idk the title seems pretty misleading

pallid flare
#

what is a sans sherma

opaque sigil
#

Sherma but sans

nimble radish
#

another of Amina's cursed creations

opaque sigil
#

Look at the pfp thkhands

burnt topaz
#

blame jonny actually, he thought of it first and i just let my hand lead me

pallid flare
#

it'll give me a bad time

nimble radish
#

sherma you wanna have a bad time

pallid flare
#

yes i do

chrome wave
#

Its like if someone made a game called "homunculus eats a banana" and its just a video of a russian guy welding while screaming profanities

languid linden
burnt topaz
chrome wave
#

I dont think you can eat a banana while welding and constantly screaming profanities at the nearest wooden table

opaque sigil
#

Why not

nimble radish
#

you're simply bad at multitasking

opaque sigil
#

Sounds like a skill issue

chrome wave
#

Then it wouldnt be considered screaming right? It would be muffled mumbling

burnt topaz
#

you scream into a pillow, you dont muffled mumble into a pillow

pallid flare
#

you dont know how to scream while eatimg a banana?

opaque sigil
#

Clearly you've never been around a baby if you think it's impossible to scream with food in your mouth

burnt topaz
#

what if homunculus happens to be allergic to bananas and is screaming at his horrible choices?

opaque sigil
#

Plot twist

chrome wave
#

Also You gotta the the the darn mask to not go blind

opaque sigil
#

stick the banana under it

#

It's not sealed, just blocks the front

chrome wave
#

And what kind of responsible human being would let a homunculus go near welding equipment

opaque sigil
#

Hell make a banana holder in the mask

#

This isn't a homonculus it's a guy named homonculus

burnt topaz
#

thats what hes welding, a new mask to eat both 1 of his 5 a day and weld at the same time without the risk he's currently taking due to his unnatural love of fruit

#

its even more tragic that hes allergic to it

opaque sigil
#

Will his hubris strike him down beesive

chrome wave
#

What kind of sick twisted person names their child homunculus

burnt topaz
#

another tragedy in his already sad life

chrome wave
#

The welding man is probably named something like Ivan, Alosha or Dmitri

frozen cedar
#

I feel like leaking releases date is kinda meh. It ruins suprises

opaque sigil
#

good thing it won't happen

#

TC's too small a team to have leaks

chrome wave
#

Didnt it already happen like 30 years ago

#

2 months ago*

opaque sigil
#

placeholder at best

burnt topaz
#

Im sure they mean a leak with more validity

chrome wave
#

Well its still something

opaque sigil
#

Not anything material

chrome wave
#

More material than nothing

opaque sigil
#

No, identically

#

Something without significance has no significance

chrome wave
#

Or the weird conspiracy charts people make to predict the release date based on cosmic radiation or something along those lines

burnt topaz
#

oh like hk was made in x years therefore x years since silksongs supposed start date is when itll be released?

clever needle
#

White Butte Street henderson nevada go there its my adress

silver oak
chrome wave
#

Or the last letter of each of leths discord messages converted to numbers gives you the number of millenia between the beggining of the universe and silksongs release

burnt topaz
burnt topaz
chrome wave
#

Its not accurate probably because of the games scope

silver oak
#

Reasons why development may be shorter than HK's: They didn't have to switch engines, they have preexisting code to work off of, they have more experience, they don't have to make dlc
Reasons why development may be longer than HK's: The game has higher quality art and animation, things feel more dynamic within the world, the game is almost certainly going to be bigger, if not a lot bigger, with more enemies, more areas, more bosses.

#

Programing the background chains to not look terrible could be a hassle

formal karma
#

Without news we will never know....

chrome wave
#

I Wonder if there will be more physics based abilities or platforming.

formal karma
#

That harpoon looks physics based

chrome wave
#

Like imagine the path of pain but all the platforms are attached to the celing by chains So they sway around

silver oak
#

That sounds like it could be horrible really easily

#

I hope the ledge grab is gonna be like in Rayman 1 on the ps1

#

Not being Able to cancel it frame one into a jump would be kinda disapointing

I hope TTacco shows up so he can tell us what the unoriginal jokes are

for a sec I didn't recognize you amina

rlly? i only wore a pumpkin last month

silver oak
#

were you nicked?

burnt topaz
#

not that i recall

#

oh wait yes i was with the password thing, then i changed back to amina for a bit

silver oak
#

I've changed my nick a few times but I've kept the "Necro" bit the whole time

#

And also I've had this pfp for like 8 months now

burnt topaz
#

its a pretty pfp

#

what was your old one?

silver oak
#

trobbio

burnt topaz
#

oh yes i remember

languid linden
#

I've had this name for over a year

#

If you ignore all the times I briefly changed it to Frodo or Evil Fordo

#

And the short impersonation attempts

burnt topaz
#

I dont know you by any other name

silver oak

I think I came up with Necromancer like 3 years ago

still owl

so you're kinda old guard.

Real old guard is fights the dark

silver oak

Joker is real old guard

the fact that you still remember fights the dark is amazing to me, just a name at this point Kekw

I wonder if Cuphead and studio MDHR will release another announcement this year (their last announcement was that the cuphead dlc was delayed to 2021). They could also be at TGA though! fingers crossed

brave stone
#

Who knows. MDHR has not said anything yet so maybe the DLC DLC will be done this year. On the other hand maybe Studio MDHR took some cues from a certain stone fruit themed team that lives in a place that lost a war to Emus

Do you guys think all the endings of hollow knight will tie in with silksong?

vivid belfry
#

yes, in the sense that it won't reference any of them and none of the details of any ending will be relevant to the plot

brave stone
#

maybe in small subtle ways

shell yacht
#

most likely not at all

coarse leaf
#

What about the 2 godmaster endings

shell yacht
#

does not at all imply something else?

brave stone
#

like we will get some call backs to the events of HK but that's about it

#

God Master ending are just as canon any other

vivid belfry
#

there are some things that HAVE to happen in every ending (unless you consider dying an ending), most pressingly Herrah's death

shell yacht
#

not likely, the game is full of player choice events. to reference them is to canonize them

brave stone
#

though they may give us some hints of what to look for like void and flowers

shell yacht
vivid belfry
#

yeah but I'm sure hornet knows about Herrah dying without talking to the knight

#

that's the kind of thing that might actually be brought up in conversation with former members of her nest

brave stone
#

Like the masters which will be in Silksong have ties to the void

shell yacht
#

yeah, but whether or not TK shows up with her there is

#

black body ≠ void

#

it is possible but rn we dont know

coarse leaf
#

I was just wondering, I didn't wanna have to beat something hard like the pantheons for silkong to make sense

brave stone
#

and The delicate flower SEEMS like it will be important to Silksong's lore with Pharlooms flowers and seed theory

shell yacht
#

hk makes sense without pantheons, none of the endings are even really good endings

brave stone
#

Who does not know about the masters and Silksong?

#

do I need to explain what Jiji and Jinn say

shell yacht
#

im more wonderimg who your questions directed at

#

and what theory?????

coarse leaf
#

Ok wait I'm confused

#

Do I need to get a specific ending for silksong to make sense

brave stone
#

No

#

It should have its own lore

shell yacht
#

no ending makes more sense than another in HK either?

#

what

coarse leaf
#

I have no idea what you just said

#

As in the way you worded it

shell yacht
#

same

#

oh you mean HK ending for SS to make sense

#

no, doesnt matter

coarse leaf
#

Yea

#

Cool

brave stone
#

if you want the best info for going into Silksong just read Jiji and Jinn's lines on the wiki they tell us a lot about Silksong's lore

coarse leaf
brave stone
#

"Ooohhhh. My masters would be impressed...
Rare it is for one to come to terms with their regrets so completely, yet you seem to have managed it.
What darkness must one wade through to achieve such a thing?"

@shell yacht how do they not make sense
Also why was your original name powdered water

brave stone
#

" Brand ...A King, the tiny It becomes. Jinn knows that mark, but cannot bow.
Jinn's masters are other... minds other... Not order. Not order, they seek."

shell yacht
#

its just a joke to mess with people

coarse leaf
#

Gotcha

brave stone
#

"This It... A rare It. Has not seen many, so vulnerable, but triumphant. Makes Jinn feel a thing... surprise?
Jinn misjudged... The It is not inferior. Perhaps... different? Different to Jinn. More complete? Different... like masters?"

coarse leaf
brave stone
#

who the heck are these masters

shell yacht
#

whover commands the steel bois

shell yacht
brave stone
#

Well yes but who are they what is their connection to void

coarse leaf
vivid belfry
#

surely you've heard of thick water

brave stone
#

also FEW things in hollowknight have real world names. Burlap was changed to cloth. But Steel gets called out by name?

coarse leaf
shell yacht
#

STEAL!

#

well yeah theyre making it in pharloom it seems

#

burlap is also soecific, but its material apparently doesnt exist in the bug world

coarse leaf
brave stone
#

you get the idea. Except for pickles according to the physical wanderers journal they are canon

coarse leaf
vivid belfry
#

I don't think the steel assassins or steel are necessarily native to pharloom

#

sure, steel assassins are there, but they're for hire by nature

brave stone
#

They may be

coarse leaf
vivid belfry
#

and I think it's much more likely that the smokerock is being used to smelt brass for the fuckton of bells everywhere

brave stone
#

like they just may be a faction against higher or pale beings

#

Yes Assassin can mean for hire...but probably not in this case

Because dolphin shaped Gatling guns are nice things to have

tawdry valley

So this is something that’s been addressed (and is thankfully thus not a lore item)

that's because they'll instead drop two dolphin shaped Gatling guns each

Alright. I understand, that TC will not give us any dates. But can we know if at least 50% of the game is finished?
I mean. Main mechanics, main locations. The storyline
Just to know, that the game is already in good shape and from now on will only expand. So we don't have to worry about development process

opaque sigil
#

Quantifying things like that is easier said than done

#

We've seen a lot of progress already, that should be assurance enough that they're being effective

What we might consider to be playable TC might not, because it's not what they want the game to be

the most important thing I'm looking forward to is the map and how large it's gonna end up being by the time the game releases

opaque sigil

She has the parry ability as well as the standard parry mechanic

#

We see it in the Seth gif

#

Ability is the active silk-costing ability, the HK parry was when you struck at the same time as a nail/weapon wielding enemy and got iframes

oh right

ig Hornet might not get iframes, we don't see her have them in the gif, but idk why she wouldn't, it seems to work the same otherwise

It's possible but I'm assuming it'll be a minor thing if so

TC is adamant making ss mostly disconnected from hk

Like Tammo said, the only connections to hk would probably be the weavers and hornet herself

Silksong is living rent free in the eshop

Is there a chance ss release day one on xbox gamepass pc?

opaque sigil

xbox gamepass probably doesn't do new releases

trim estuary
#

It’s probably going to be out on Xbox One and PS4 too

glossy gazelle
#

I dunno how many times I can say "we don't know"

fathom peak
#

it'll probably go on pc and switch first
since iirc those were the most successful platforms
or maybe im wrong

tired mist
coarse leaf
#

Hollow knight only released a year after pc on switch didn't it?

glossy gazelle
#

Yeah PC and Switch are priorities

fathom peak
#

then the other platforms will probably follow

trim estuary
opaque sigil
#

But will the companies that make the consoles still be adding games to them

glossy gazelle
stark estuary
#

Sharpe isn't Void??? Bruh y'all are bad at lore.

tired mist
#

Will ss be harder than hk?

coarse leaf
#

Maybe

opaque sigil
#

It's intended to be equivalent

coarse leaf
#

Boss staggers are faster

opaque sigil
#

SS boss staggers are way more forgiving

coarse leaf
#

But your healing is also faster

opaque sigil
#

SS staggers aren't cancelled by hitting the boss

coarse leaf
#

Some bosses will also be faster than some really fast hk ones

glossy gazelle
#

Also it turns out I was wrong about Sharpe's multiple fights being infered it's straight up stated he'll be fought multiple times

#

So yeah, that'll be interesting to have multiple fights against two different opponents

stark estuary
#

Boss fights may be made easier by bosses staggering more often and Hornet's bind being instantaneous but that can be compensated for by them being faster and/or platforming sections and enemy encounters being more difficult.

coarse leaf
#

Alright, probably a question that gets asked a lot
If you were to make a guess, how far would you think silksong is in development right now

opaque sigil
#

There's no good way to quantify that

Duality.

#

Mitosis

#

Mysterious Dragon

glossy gazelle
#

Anyways, I wonder how useful some spells will be

trim estuary
opaque sigil
#

Like just in combat or beyond it?

glossy gazelle
#

I meant skills e

#

They are the spells equivalent, that's why I got confuseed

coarse leaf
#

One of them will probably be her silk ball

stark estuary
#

It's not inaccurate to call Hornet's silk skills spells.

glossy gazelle
#

They function similarly

stark estuary
#

I mean, they're probably magical in nature.

opaque sigil
#

The silk spear is used to destroy something blocking the path at least once, and the grapple (which seems to act as a skill) will probably be useful for traversal

brittle garnet
#

God I'm so excited to use the grapple

glossy gazelle
#

I know TC said, magic won't be as prominent here (probably why Hornet's "spells" are called skills)

trim estuary
#

Grapple seems too slow to be used during a battle unless it’s a big boss

opaque sigil
#

Grapple is pretty fast and has some iframes at the end, plus you can chain it into other attacks

#

Plus it's extra movement, that's always gonna be useful for dodging

glossy gazelle
#

Grapple might be boss dependent on where you use it

opaque sigil
#

Sure, but most abilities and the like will be more useful in some conditions than others

#

Grapple would be great for getting close to bosses that like to keep their distance

#

Like Lace, but then again rushing Lace is not a great idea zote

trim estuary
#

Proof?

brittle garnet
#

If grapple has i-frames then it will find plenty of use

opaque sigil
#

Two mask damage flurry attack groozy

opaque sigil
#

Like how her pogo has a few (although arguably not enough)

brittle garnet
#

tbh, if Grapple has i-frames upon hitting, it could be the way to dodge that fire ring attack

opaque sigil
#

I doubt that's the intended strategy

stark estuary
#

Hornet might have a dash with i-frames too

opaque sigil
#

iframe dash wouldn't work for that attack either

glossy gazelle
#

I dunno if you'll even have grapple for the first lace fight

stark estuary
#

Wait what attack are we talking about

opaque sigil
#

There are too many flames and at variable timing, the cooldown would make the attack undodgeable, as would the potentially absurd timing required

stark estuary
#

Oh you mean Last Judge's thing

opaque sigil
#

If Rad walls came at you in groups of four at a time shade cloak wouldn't be enough

brittle garnet
#

ye but grapple has longer range, and we don't know how the fire rings behave

#

for all we know they might not move.

opaque sigil
#

And dashing into this spot would be absurd

brittle garnet
#

oh, i was imagining grappling to Last Judge

opaque sigil
#

That might work but grapple doesn't go that far and having an attack that can only be dodged with an ability that costs silk would render it impossible to dodge under some conditions

#

And even then he might flail around a bit when making the flames and hit you

stark estuary
#

I thought you were talking about something else. Yeah obviously not. I imagine that the fire rings will briefly part here so that Hornet can jump through them (we can see something like this on the ring closest to Last Judge).

opaque sigil
#

If you look at her positioning, too

#

Like there was a part here that just closed after she jumped through

radiant wraith
#

The look of these rings is quite different from anything we've seen in HK, right?

opaque sigil
#

And there is a seam of sorts there, for lack of a better word

stark estuary
#

And it does look like that part hasn't fully reconnected either, if you look closely.

#

Where is this screenshot from?

stark estuary
#

They do tbh (someone grab a picture)

opaque sigil
trim estuary
#

See they’re not out of place

radiant wraith
#

I was just saying that most HK attacks are like a homogenous projectile or AOE thing but rarely many particles like this

coarse leaf
#

Anyways Silksong release tomorrow

opaque sigil
#

Well I imagine that the walls are divided into units, they're not just clusters of damaging particles

#

Kinda like rad sword walls

radiant wraith
#

Yeah, but with fancy particles

opaque sigil
#

Well, the gap between walls 2 and 3 seems a bit small to be identical to the sword walls, maybe it can spawn two in quick succession if and only if they open in the same spot

stark estuary
#

Wait, an attack somewhat similar to Rad's sword walls AND they're orange? Does this mean

opaque sigil
#

Kirb no don't do it (but even if you did it wouldn't be the worst crackpot LJ idea)

trim estuary
radiant wraith
opaque sigil
#

Kirb I don't like how long you've been typing

stark estuary
#

If you look closely you will see that the flames resemble the infection, and if you squint really hard you will realise Hornet's legs are, in fact, black in colour. Now, fire obviously emits light, and Rad is the literal sun, which is often incorrectly described as a "giant ball of fire". Clearly, Hornet is jumping through the flames (Radiance) and is about to attack the Last Judge. Now, let me ask you, what opposes light? That's right, it's Void, and what does that mean? Hornet is Void, a theory further corroborated by her black coloration.

opaque sigil
coarse leaf
#

the bible

radiant wraith
#

Hornet legs clothflushed

stark estuary
#

And to be fair, I believe my argument to be unironically superior to anything that has ever been presented as evidence for Hornet being Void.

opaque sigil
#

I mean it isn't weaker

coarse leaf
#

hi gamers

stark estuary
#

And also since Silksong is probably a sequel and TC said all endings are equally canon, that means Radiance survives in DNM and EtV.
