Summary
Death was not the end. For the Wyrm, it was ascension. For you, it was a cruel rebirth into a dying world - unchanged and laid bare.
Hallownest stands at the height of its splendor, yet a rot stirs beneath its polished surface. A mind-eroding plague spreads in silence, and in this rising sickness, the humanity that should have damned you instead gives you value.
To deny the desperate bugs is to shatter their hope. To accept is to invite a disaster born of faith. How do you survive a kingdom that admires the mediocrity you curse, and whose belief might just make their delusion real?

Summary
Set in an alternate universe where the scope of The Radiance's fury has long reaching consequences, both she and Grimm had duties beyond what we see in game, and my own brand of headcanon for this intriguing world.
Dragoon hailed from the kingdom of Odonata, trained in the ways of Soul, to nourish and revitalize lands that have fallen to ruin. In the middle of her long journey to a land she can rejuvenate, she catches the attention of The Nightmare King.
Grimm asks her to aid him in his Ritual, to bear him a child, and upon learning why, Dragoon proposes an alternative. This is the tale of how a Soul Bearer and The Nightmare King start on a journey to right the wrongs left in the wake of The Radiance abandoning her duty as the God of Dreams.

Summary
A collection of stories, set in the same universe as Will Terribly. Loosely connected, will be readable in any order. Will mainly follow stories of Hollow and Hornet as children of royalty, but there will be others. Will update until I'm finally over the idea of ridiculous court nonsense in Hallownest.

Summary
The White Lady convinces her husband to let them keep just one egg for themselves. One child untainted by the void, one child among a sea of corpses.
But the egg cannot hatch outside the Abyss. They try everything, hold it close and treat it like a living child, then lose hope and leave it in the care of nannies. It doesn’t matter; that egg was doomed from the start to never hatch. The Pale King’s essence had been too tainted by void to sire a normal child.
The egg sits, frozen in time, until mere weeks before the Hollow Knight’s sealing. The Pure Vessel just can’t leave his parents alone, so he takes the egg to the Abyss to hatch it.
There are consequences to every action taken of free will, no matter how much self delusion is involved.
