Through their sacrifice, Hallownest lasts eternal.
[Image ID: A digital art drawing of the Hollow Knight, they are limp and possibly dead on the floor of the Black Egg Temple. They have been ran through with their nail, which is allowing the infection to bubble straight from their chest. There are chains and rocks in the background, alongside random bits of infection scattered around./End ID]

In the Queens Gardens, an apprentice is shocked to find a stranger resting near the lifeblood.
It was no ordinary intruder, however.
No bug would be so achingly similar in aura to their great king. Yet so achingly different as well.
Disturbed from their sleep, the higher being only asks for him to keep quiet, his mind in a state of shock as they depart to the shadows.
Just the Lord of Shades causing panic in their favorite scholar, nothing big.
Except for Ghost, they're huge.
Maybe I should explore my hollow knight au more 馃 extremely morally grey ghost is interesting...
Perhaps I should write iiiiiiiittttttt later.
And maybe on a different blog idk

anyone else ever think that in the sealed siblings ending that technically hollow is also in there. like. not living. but they're there too. we don't ever see a shade, we don't see a mask, we don't see them ya know, die. i've always thought of sealed siblings as not just being ghost and hornet. but ghost hornet and hollow. all stuck inside a tomb that calls itself a temple. three lines of defense for hallownest and the only living children of the pale king, all trapped inside the same room. anyway maybe im being overly emo but i think its a neat concept if sealed siblings also refers to hollow.

Some odd slugcats with even odder masks...
(many more doodles under the cut; massive spoilers for hollow knight and rain world though)
Notes:
-HK can NOT catch a break. "The Hollow" could be a name too.
-The Broken is based off the Broken Vessel.
-This world probably gets infested by rot to mirror the infection, but PK somehow quarantined himself away from it. He still mysteriously dies anyways though lmao
-WL can't really do anything with her structure and is missing her arms to boot. Maybe self-inflicted to mirror her source game? (The taboo would stop her from dying of course, but would it stop her from doing that?) Also it was hard to interpret her into iterator form, her antennae are WEIRD
-I had considered pale king/white lady as ancients and vessels as iterators, but slugcat protags felt more fitting for rain world.
-I drew the Radiance as a void worm before realizing that her being an iterator that purposefully spread the rot would be WAY more fitting on every level. Void Entity for void worm instead maybe?? I don't want to draw it right now though xP

If i had a nickel for every time when a ruler figure creates hundreds of artificial children and then kills them and throws them in the pit, i would have two nickels. That's not a lot, but it's funny that it happened twice.
