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.

He trusts them, of course. Explicitly. And part of that trust is keeping them in an open hand, allowing them the freedom they never had. Letting go of them and waiting, arm outstretched, for their return.
They never fly far.

Summary
It has always been more, more than what was asked of it, more than what was ever needed. Faster. Stronger. Perfect. Pure.
And now, when it is inches away from what it was made for, when the title many have already begun to whisper is a breath away from truth, it has failed.~
Just prior to being knighted, the Pure Vessel receives its armor—and, for the first time, reaches its limits.
Or: the Pale King sees an opportunity to make the Pure Vessel stronger by giving them the magical equivalent of cyborg implants. This does not go well.

Summary
Hornet visits the statue of the Hollow Knight in the City of Tears, every so often, when the rain is thinnest and she can hear herself think over the roar of water.
Once, her father told her he'd given his child the ability to see the world before he'd imprisoned it, through the eyes of the statue. She's not sure if she believed him, but she talks to the Knight anyway. It's not like the rest of Hallownest is any more responsive. She thinks perhaps, behind those eyes of cold stone, her sibling can hear her. That, despite the fire raging through its mind, it manages to think enough to do so.
She knows there was always life in it, after all.

Summary
The chains it once hung from are broken. Snapped under the weight of a great power, and casting it adrift in a bewildering, colorful world, far removed from the whites and golds that had long dominated its existence.
But the inky black of its sleep remained for it to sink into, a sea of blankness where no dream dared to enter...
Until foreign lights began to shine in the darkness.
