Lashing fragments of pure darkness, shaped into sharpened tentacles.
Something ancient, something from deep below has wrought terrible havoc on this kingdom… I do not know how it happened, but I can tell forces I do not understand are at work. Perhaps Pharloom is paying for its sins.
Spspsppsp, calling fellow hollow knight and silksong fans, want your oc animated as if they were in game?? Mostly idle but hopefully as i learn the style more maybe attack, running, and more animations!! I say this so I can maybe start a YouTube series on this! Unfortunately I had to put my silksong skin of my oc on hold because i dont have the proper equipment to do so, so i figured doing another project like this may be helpful!!
Idk how to really do this so im just trying this out for rn, uhh idk how people would submit their ocs…? I tried google forms but it needs a subscription to have image upload stuff to it so smh….
He exploded in rage as he turned to the Lifeblood Being.
I. TRUSTED. YOU.
Countless organic navy-blue wires erupted from the earth and shot at the being. Each one of a thousand score bore a single intention -- impale their King's tormentor into a gangly kebab of Jet and Sapphire.
Craw. I believe it's a semi-archaic term originating from the Verdanians, though I'm not certain.
I've certainly had enough experience with them to know that most of them don't like being called as such. There was a whole court case about the blasted issue! I know because I was there!
Then again, when have the Craws ever not taken an issue to court
I don’t think void beings have crests of their own, but Hollow has had some forced onto them wich resulted in a shattered amalgamation of different crests acting as one.
Maybe one day they can have a unified version, but for now it’s this mess
...Oh, I jest! My ilk are not purely of the Void anyway, so whether or not we've a Crest is very much a '30 is an even number' issue.
One must wonder, though... it could be said that the Vessels are not purely Benighted, either. Truly, their nature puzzles; clearly Pallid enough to emit light and harness Soul like other Pale Beings, yet also bearing the ability to manipulate their Void flesh (after all, it is their will that moves their body; to lash out with a tendril is to walk or breathe, for that sort of being).
Is their Pallor stored in their mask? Or do they retain some of it even as Shades? Does that endless font of Soul feed the Void, making it stronger? Must a Lord of Shades always bear some shred of light within itself?
If they did have a crest, I'd imagine it would be confused from the onset, even without the impetus of other gods...
Large worm mutated heavily by Plasmium. The creature has become fused to the roof of its cave, no longer able to move freely.
So many things in our world twist the mind and warp the body that sometimes it seems like a wonder that any of us are spared from such things. Do entities beyond our understanding simply delight in toying with us, the way we might with even smaller and weaker creatures?
The apocalypse has come and gone, and against all odds, Pharloom remains standing. The time has come for Hornet to return to Hallownest, accompanied by friends and allies: Shakra hopes to explore the mythical land beyond the wastes, and properly lay to rest a member of her own tribe; Lace fears unraveling without the aid of a Weaver, while contending with the immensity of a future free of her mother’s threads; and the Green Prince lives only only to spite the Citadel, passively seeking a more honorable end than might be found in the rubble of his homeland.
Meanwhile, Hornet returns from Pharloom with magic and knowledge that might aid in the slow recovery of Hallownest and Deepnest–and perhaps offer the chance to call home the sibling she once thought lost to her forever.

A brief look into Lace's mind! She is so very, very normal, and coping in healthy ways. We also learn a little more about what Hollow has been up to since the end of the first game... (They didn't mean to wake her, but they weren't expecting her to perceive them either.)
At any rate! Thank you all for your patience. It has been an incredibly chaotic couple of weeks, and your continued interest has really helped keep me sane.

Lace: Spider!?
Lace: Hey!! This isn't funny!
Lace: There you are! I was beginning to think you meant to leave me behind.
Lace: !

Phantom: What's wrong dear sister? You look as though you've seen a ghost.

Lace: This is a surprise! Now even the sibling has deigned to haunt my sleep.
Hollow: So you are aware of the dream?
Lace: Of course. I'm not a real person, you see. I need neither food nor rest-- To sleep is a choice, as is to dream.
Hollow: So this dream is as you desire?
Lace: I never said that.
Lace: I may choose to dream, but I have no control over what those dreams entail... as evidenced by your intrusion here. Why am I even explaining this to a figment of my unconscious mind?
Hollow: My apologies.
Lace: Hm. Well at least you're polite about it.
Lace: Sigh. Nothing for a bad dream but to let it run its course. Perhaps next I'll see my mother's severed arm!
Hollow: Do you wish to leave?
Lace: Of course! But since when does what I wish--

Lace: How did you--
Lace: !?
Lace: Gasp!
Hornet: !? Are you well, child?
Lace: They're the God of Dreams?
Hornet: Ah. Yes.
Lace: But-- What--
Lace: Hey!! don't go back to sleep!!
