The Wyrm could've chosen any pile of rocks and holes to make his kingdom
Yet his arrival and death was a self fulfilling prophecy
The moths could have ignored him, or the wyrm could have rejected them
Yet they weren't so loyal to their mother
And it is on a wyrm's nature to accept bugs into its thrall
He could've stopped expanding his kingdom at any point, yet the betrayal that doomed it was also the one to birth it
#hollow knight#the pale king#hk pale king#pale wyrm#hk wyrm#hollow knight lore#yes im assuming/headcanoning that the wyrm stopped where it did because it saw Hallownest through foresight#you know that one post about the best of tragedies#being the ones that are simultaneously 'doomed from the start' and 'could have gone differently at any point'?#thats what i think the rise and fall of Hallownest is#''well he could've given up to Radiance'' her rage was excessive and indiscriminate and affected allies and foes of the kingdom alike#she most likely couldn't be reasoned with after the infection took hold
