    Summary

    “Oh my gods,” you mutter [...] as your eyes wander back to the statue. “It's all my fault. I'm the reason that Hallownest fell.”
    “What could possibly urge you to think that way?” Quirrel asks.
    [...] “It's because I corrupted the Hollow Knight,” you say plainly, even though the words leaving your own mouth still astound you.
    [...] “I was the Hollow Knight's lover.”

    Years on the outside beyond the Wastes have aged you and forged you into much more of a jaded wanderer, yet you find yourself pulled to the ruins of a kingdom called Hallownest, only to uncover that this is not your first time being here. A love from long ago had called you here, and you'll do anything to earn them back.

    Summary

    In a crumbling Hallownest, you are a wandering divine painter with a few useful gifts: a song that lulls gods into rest, art that wakes dead lands, and an Echo that allows you to taste emotions and memories left behind. When your path crosses with a vessel forged for silence, your purpose takes a small detour and something that was never meant to live begins to bloom.

    Summary

    Winding up in a strange world with nothing, you're taken in by Monomon the Teacher and her pupil, Quirrel.
    A season later, you find more than home in the Archives. You draw what you see: delicate flora, migratory insects, and the way Quirrel lights up when you're near. In your careful observation, something tender is growing.

    But Hallownest's infection is returning. Your eyes are wanted, and when you look closely, you see everything that is meant to remain hidden.

    Summary

    Hornet has never been able to prove herself as someone powerful, not with her family's overprotective watch. A little hunting trip out with Mary was just supposed to let her test her needle against real opponents, even if just weak ones. But then Hornet and Mary are kidnapped to Pharloom.
    Now with an entire Kingdom to explore and no one but an injured Mary to rely on, will she be ready to face the world with her needle in hand?
