Two kindly bugs

Lie resting in grottos of their own

Their blessings, an aid

They ease passage

To the hiding place

Of Great Beings

And their boons

Trivia Tuesday: Joni

You're seeing this correctly! This is the original submitted art for Joni, who was a Kickstarter backer-designed bug. This image was revealed in a backer update with the following caption:

Joni is a blue ground beetle and one of the teams' favourite bugs! Joni might be dead, but she's still quite happy. She wishes the player a safe journey through Hallownest.

discussing HK stuff (spoilersers)

Hollow knight is certainly a funky game am I right? So, we know almost nothing about the void civilization or anything really, like TLC’s mother, (Heretic) Joni, where the fuck WL came from, and the whole bell situation in Silksong, I’ll be mossbag today and try to figure something’s out

Most of the things that I mention about the bells in Silksong is from mossbags bell video, like the notes that play when hitting the bell and as someone who works at a daycare with music stuff and in orchestra, I can say that mossbag is right about the notes being played. The notes seem to be a Pharloom anthem or something, as a bass version plays at the beginning of the trailer, whenever the bells are played and in a Lace fight if I remember the trailer right. Music seems to play a big role in Pharloom, from the music note like symbol on top of Hornets cage, to Hornet learning how to play her needle from the church person in the mossy pit area, and to Lace conducting those butterfly bird things. We can also tell that silk plays a big part as well, as addition to the symbol on Hornets cage, the ball looks like a ball of silk (haha get it? Silksong)

I’d like to discuss HK and PK next, we can guess that the idea instilled was the memory at the end of Path of Pain with PK and HK, but is it just that memory? surely other characters helped with the idea, right? like White Lady, maybe the Great Knights and Dreamers? Hornet definitely would’ve played a role in that, but, what if it was Ghost who instilled the idea? That one moment in the abyss.. two siblings facing each other.. one ending up falling while the other one joins the ranks of their father….. okay that’s enough rambling for me

Another things is what the fuck is Lost Kin doing? why the fuck is it in Ancient Basin if the door was sealed off and Deepnest is on the other side of the tram? PK must’ve taken Lost Kin, or maybe Ogrim? Like wasn’t Ogrim exiled?? maybe that’s why he was exiled idk guys, but that also means Lost is older than both HK and Ghost, and i can only assume that Lost died from someone attacking them, because how in the ever loving fuck do you trip and shatter your frontal lobe /silly

that’s kinda all tbh, hope you enjoyed my 1am ramblings

my hk update: so ive gone to all of peaks that i think i can go to easily. got crystal heart and tried to do the two big crystal rooms that need cdash. did the one where it takes u to the dirtmouth elevator. didnt do the one where u had to do like actual kinda parkour bc i cannot jump over those like pillar things where u have to wall jump off and over them to avoid crystals. tried to do the big spike room in greenpath instead. failed miserably. went 2 resting grounds n killed xero after he killed me only once. hes kinda pathetic. andddd now im gonna go to do that dream tree near mantis village. o and i also got jonis blessing at some point. anddd. yeah no i think thats it. rlly want to kill the mantis lords tho i just WISH there were closer benches than the mantis village one. but whatever. could b worse. could b soul master bench. anyways. whatsherface moth needs me. so. im gonna. dream tree. or i could do gorb. im not doing gorb am i insane why would i do gorb. ok. not gonna do gorb. might do elder hu if i know where he is. which i dont. dream tree.

Okay I got over my tantrum Hollow Knight is fun again LOL

Y’all is Hollow Knight hard or do I just suck because oh my god??

[quiirrel]

The Pale king isn't a colonizer, the moths joined him willingly. Nor are we condoning his actions. Yes he killed children. But in a fit of desperation. What would you have down? We know he ultimately regretted his choice and arguably died from grief.

Ps. That's a really nice edit!

I made it in 5 seconds in ibis paint which is surprisingly good for editing if you’re interested in getting into that but like. A fit of desperation in which he killed enough children to make a body pit also, taken from my DMs in several posts where I’ve debated with my friend: (colored for dyslexia help!)

there are literal monoliths and structures and statues dedicated to PK completely overwriting the moth’s history as it’s stated plainly ingame

the HK statue the PK fountain the idea of the archives being made to “contain” knowledge the blatant colonist themes of having stations named King and Queen’s station

you can even see the line where it cuts between the impoverished (literally called Dirtmouth) where they live with very little other than ramshackle houses & a well and the city of tears where they have giant spiraling buildings and walls that cut off the outside

it’s even explicitly stated that herrah disallowed PK from doing the same thing to deepnest—the attacks on the destroyed tramway implying he TRIED TO GO THROUGH WITH IT ANYWAY (sorry emphasis) which is like. come on

deepnest bugs are even referred to as beasts and very much made ‘other’ and ‘other’-people because of the fact that they didn’t want to work with PK until herrah gave in with the radiance threat

The way crystal peaks is implied to be a sacred place by the shaman living there and the huge statue of the radiance at the top being taken and used as a mine

And PK himself implied to have abandoned his people and escaped reckoning by removing the entire palace leaving even the higher class people unrelated to the monarchy high and dry

and there’s so little of any culture left in Hallownest beside what pk made and took. Unn abandoned her people to rot and the Lifeblood beast is sleeping with the only person related to it (Joni) being asleep in a sealed room. Deepnest is empty and the Mantises are basically the only surviving colony beside the Hive, who all emit infection clouds and whose queen died.

He literally colonized Hallownest lol like. Even if you see it as gods warring over territory it’s still colonialism if you uproot hundreds of peoples lives and faith and replace it with your own. Also the fucking mass infanticide like you don’t do infanticide not only once not even five times but millions of times MILLIONS of times out of desperation. come on.

Anyway seeing this take so often despite the shit ton of proof is a little annoying but I do love discussing and debate also. Sorry for text dump

Hollow Knight  Baby Higher Beings

I've become more of a chibi character than a baby.

Ghost, Quirrel and the Last Stag for HK quastions :3

Ghost: Why did you decide to play Hollow Knight?

I actually can't remember why! I think it was recommended by a friend YEARS ago. A fun fact is that I actually bought HK close to release, but got so stuck on the first hornet fight i quit for a while before finally coming back to it and beating it in late 2022. I think I got back into it this time after playing Stray, which really made me re-appreciate singleplayer games more. I almost exclusively played co-op games prior to that.

Quirrel: What was your favorite thing to discover for the first time?

The City of Tears. By far. I am very bad at Hollow Knight, and a lot of progress points took me far longer than the average person, I feel like. Getting to the city after that grueling jumping puzzle is something I remember so distinctly. It was like 3 am , i finally got that stupid bridge down, and then... I start descending down into what I didn't know at the time would become one of my favorite locations in the game.

I start descending into this beautiful, gothic city. And the rain starts falling. And the music starts fading in. And I'm like in a state of reverence for this place the further I go, like I am transfixed already. But then, THEN, sheltered by the rain, with the sound of it hitting the window just outside, and the beautiful OST backing it.... I find my best friend Quirrel waiting at a bench with me.

I don't quite know what made that one of the most profound moments in the game for me but i wept. like i WEPT. And I sat on the bench next to quirrel and I WEPT and that was when i was like okay its now almost 4 am and i need to sleep LMFAO.

I also really liked discovering Joni's rest, one of the prettiest little secrets.

The Last Stag: What area of the game do you visit the most?

Greenpath!! Greenpath my beloved!!! Whenever I want to just mess around and be a little bug I go to Greenpath. It always makes me so happy to be there, and it's just a feast on the eyes and the ears.

[fajitaposting]

I doubt it would be in silk song but it’d be really neat if we found a colony or grove of bugs who grew up dependent on the stuff and have evolved and adapted in response to it. I just think we need more stuff on lifeblood, HK left us a couple crumbs with Joni lore and stuff but I want more.

Why make lifeblood into "infection but blue"

When you can do so much more?

[synirene]

i am literally OBSESSED with your takes on the hk characters i cannot wait to see more if you decide to keep drawing them your art is so tasty!!!!! i hope you're enjoying the game as well :-) out of curiosity, what's been the hardest boss fight for you so far?

THANK YOU!! Sorry i couldn't get to you sooner, this was buried under a sea of notifications- but im loving the game and plan on drawing more characters when i can!

So far, i think the hardest boss has definitely been radiance LMAOOO, i equipped jonis blessing and another lifeblood charm because i genuinely had no time to heal during the fight! so i just had to maneuver and avoid attacks whenever i could. I ended the fight with a single mask of health left (which scared the shit out of me btw)

Second hardest was grimm no questions asked (banished him before i could fight nightmare king grimm. fly high grimmchild 🕊)
