    Summary

    She blinks away the spotting in her vision, looking around at the horrid predicament she’s found herself in. Surrounding her are tangles of roots, composed from the same matter as Greyroot. But these have no life pulsing through them. The bark is dry, brittle entirely. She uses this weakness to her advantage, throwing her weight around as much as she is able until the wood breaks, sending her careening to the ground. Her movement seems to startle whatever was shoved into her as its movements quicken and her pain increases. She spends many moments curled around herself on the ground, choking back expletives and sobs. The creature pushes out against her shell, she can feel its tendrils wrapped around her organs, squeezing them, destroying them. She gags. Nothing comes out.

    Or: Hornet has gotten herself cursed and must find a way to survive it, cure it, and live in the aftermath.

    Summary

    Something is very wrong in Hallownest.

    The Hollow Knight wakes up outside the Temple of the Black Egg. Hornet feels a shift in the kingdom from all the way in Greenpath. Together, the two of them discover the sacrifices each has made—and the grief neither one of them was allowed to feel.

    Hollow survives the Hollow Knight ending, though severely wounded and close to death. Against her better judgement, Hornet takes them under her care. Along the way, Hollow begins to acknowledge their emotions, and Hornet slowly discovers she's been lied to about the true nature of Vessels.

    Summary

    A weaver falls, a god ascends.

    Hornet loses the battle against Grand Mother Silk, and finds herself strung up in the pale monarch’s web, devoid of everything that made her who she is. Lace grapples with the fact that she may never come back, and that perhaps, she held more feelings towards the spider who once was her foe than she can be possibly comfortable admitting.

     

    Or

     

    The tale of a crimson clad warrior turned to a haunted devout, and the love-wishing knight who will do everything in her power to bring her old self back—no matter the cost.
