to any nonbinary people reading this, never forget:

you can collect SOUL by striking enemies. once enough SOUL is collected, you can hold B to focus SOUL and regain health.

my absolute favorite thing in hollow knight is that all of the pale king’s children are considered genderless, right? and so imagine, you are hornet, one of the king’s many children, and you go up to your stepmom one day, and are like “mother, i think i am a girl. i want to use she/her pronouns.” AND THEN, for the rest of fucking HISTORY, you’re known as The Gendered Child. like that’s canon. hornet’s stepmom calls her that in game. that’s so funny. imagine coming out and ur mom just goes “ok, Gendered One”

hollow knight: Before you stands the mighty Soul Master, leader of the Soul Sanctum. He believed that the best way to battle the infection plaguing Hallownest was through the arcane power of Soul. Eventually his research turned into obsession and he resorted to unethical experiments, in the process turning others into malformed creatures with barely a thought in their minds. Once intelligent bugs, those beings are now simply known as Mistakes and Follies, for that is all that the Soul Master’s efforts amounted to. In the end, it was all for naught, as he too succumbed to the infection. Now he is a mere mindless husk, lurking the Sanctum’s roofs and attacking anyone brave or foolish enough to wander there.

also hollow knight: this is Poop Man, he attacks by throwing poop at you. he also swims around in it like scrooge mcduck. when you beat him you get the Poop Medal, which smells like poop so badly it can kill enemies. also some people will recognize Poop Man’s distinctive poop smell and say how cool it is that you met their very good friend Poop Man

don’t forget that if ghost were to ever speak or communicate in some capacity it would probably sound like

just EXACTLY the amount of information that needs to be conveyed and absolutely nothing more. this fact amuses me and i’m sad that I don’t see it more often

Hollow Knight is one of the most video games of all time. You embrace darkness as a cute bug child. You have thousands of siblings and only one of them has a gender. The best powerup is a compass. The game’s canonical sex icon is a giant worm cocoon. Zote is there.

Hollow Knight Heritage Post

The full version of my interpretation of Myla's song ("Bury my mother, pale and slight..."), based on the tune she hums. Sung by me (at 2am) (with a cold). I'm… actually pretty proud of how this turned out!

Context: When the city was condemned, were the miners still in Crystal Peak left outside? Did they wonder what happened to their families left within? Did they sing for them? For the knight and dreamers whose memorial they may once have seen? For the desperate hope for a brighter future? Even just a chance to mourn?

Additional Context: The really fun thing about rounds is how one by one the voices inevitably die off until there is only one remaining. :)

(I really didn't expect so many people to want to hear the whole thing! Many thanks to The Embraced One and Camellia Flingert on Youtube, whose recordings of Crystal Peak ambience provided the perfect background noise/pickaxes/ominous rumbling.)

Full lyrics under the cut.

Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, yo-na-la (Ke-ti-ya) ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ye-le-ki, ye-la-ka, no-na-na ye-le-ko

[Chorus:] None shall enter, none shall leave, the king has sealed our kin. But we yet breathe, unite and grieve and sing for those within. Gates will open; we take hope and mourn ‘till morning comes. Soon the knight will bring the day – it’s this the crystal hums!

Oh, bury my mother, pale and slight, Bury my father with his eyes shut tight, Bury my sisters two by two, And then when you're done, let's bury me too!

Oh, bury the knight with her broken nail, Bury the lady, lovely and pale, Bury the priest in his tattered gown, Then bury the beggar with his shining crown!

[Chorus]

Oh, bury the traitor marred by pride, Bury his daughter at her lover’s side, Bury the sage and his sons all three, But save by their grave a space for me!

Oh, bury the smith and his blood-soaked art, Bury the writer with a broken heart, Bury the fool with their shield stained red, But ask them thrice to be sure that they are dead!

[Chorus]

[As a round] Oh, bury the teacher in her hallowed hall, Bury the watcher in his tower tall, Bury the beast in her silken cave, Then bury the one who dug their graves.

Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, yo-na-la (Ke-ti-ya) ma-na-na, ni-ne-na, ye-mi-ye-ta Ye-le-ki, ye-la-ka, no-na-na ye-le-ko

...

This started as a ditty to sing while chopping wood and ended with three separate ambience loops, boss scream cameos from the Radiance and the Crystal Guardian, and the realization that the official soundtrack has a perfectly good cover of someone going na-na-na to the tune of the main theme already, why not throw that into the chorus somewhere quietly while we're at it…

two years ago, I sketched this on the eve of the new year to wish everyone to be close to those whom you call your family

I was just filled with all kinds of warmth and love, and since the snow is already blowing all over my window, I thought it was time for these old warm sketches
