    Summary

    Hornet and Shakra journey throughout Pharloom, following the paths set before them. Over time, they come to realize how much they care for each other.

    Would Hornet be so impulsive as to overlook her centuries of discipline for a single mortal fling? Would Shakra betray the memory of her elders for a chance to live a normal life?

    What if they both want to?

    Summary

    Ghost ends the Infection much earlier, leaving Hallownest with something of a society that must now pick up the pieces. Catastrophic resource shortages, an unstable political landscape, and a population scarred by plague leave every able body stretched thin. Still, Hornet is grateful for her mother's presence, something she never thought she would have. This is, of course, complicated when a chorus from Pharloom attempts to capture a weaverling. With the weavers as a whole too injured to run, and no longer able to hide, a new solution must be found: diplomacy.

    Pharloom is starved for Silk, as it always has been. When a chorus returns, bearing news of Mother's wayward children, Lace expects things to stay the same. Unfortunately, these stray weavers are guarded by a Wyrm, and Mother is reluctant to challenge another higher being in her diminished state. However, she cannot simply let her children go. Diplomacy is the only option.

    Summary

    Things… change.

    Ghost supposes that many would probably say that they get better. They do get better, don’t they? Yes, they do. Things change, and they are better. The Infection is gone, and Hollow is safe, and Hornet is happy, and so Ghost is fine. Perhaps they are selfish, and they mourn a dying world that they can never return to, and they are more alone than ever before, but they’ll get over it.

    …And it’s not as if anyone will notice if they don’t.

    Ghost goes back in time, kills the Radiance, and sets everything right. They tell no one, and do it on their own. It is only after their family is happy, and the kingdom is safe, and the Abyss is soothed to sleep, that they realize just how lonely it is as the last remaining piece of a future never to be.

    Summary

    Hornet of Hallownest and Lace of Pharloom were two very different beings.

    This was what Hornet believed - one impossibly young, one inconceivably old, one loud and boisterous, one cold and contemplative, one ashamed of all she was, one proud of how far she'd come.

    Acting as her companion for a time to look out for her as she recovered, however, changed Hornet's mind somewhat.

    Summary

    After Monomon's call is answered and Hallownest falls into peaceful quiet, Quirrel decides it's time to let go and makes a decision at the Blue Lake-- Where he is ambushed by a group of unfamiliar bugs draped in white and used to lure a certain half-Weaver into a trap. Now, Hornet has been whisked away to Wyrm-knows where, Quirrel is left with nothing but a bell and a cranky Relic Seeker to guide him, and a new type of horrific infection is sprouting up at an alarming rate... Maybe he still has some adventuring left in him, after all. (Or Quirrel and Lemm become unexpected best friends while Hornet beats up silk-possessed bugs in a cogwork wonderland.)

    Summary

    After Abyss, Hornet returns to a Pharloom without a monarch. The peace and freedom she has sought for herself and the common bugs is now accompanied by grief of what was lost, and an uncertainty of what is to come. Hornet has much remaining to offer Pharloom, and for herself a journey to understand the heritage of dominance.

    Summary

    The day her mother went to sleep forever was a day of short lived celebration for Hallownest. Her mother and a sibling she never knew, sacrificed for a kingdom through the whims of her father. The worst day Hornet had ever been through.

    Yet, her home was not saved. The sickness merely flickered with its creator’s entrapment before resuming its slow rampage.

    Her guardians and fellow Weavers are left scrambling for a solution, leaving Hornet alone in her room to watch the beginning of the end. She wants to help, to help save Hallownest like her mother wanted to, but she is turned down again and again as they claim her too young to take such a mantle. Too small to even properly wield a needle.

    But she is Queen of Deepnest, Daughter of Hallownest, child of Weaver and Wyrm! And she isn’t going to just watch her home crumble around her!

    OR

    (Everything goes to shit way sooner than in cannon. Its literally just Ghost and Hornet fucking around and finding out during the end of Hallownest while trying to save it. Like co-op Hollow Knight except played backwards essentially)

    Summary

    After losing her battle with Hornet in the Cradle, Lace wanted nothing more than to lie down and wallow in her own despair. Now, in a changed Pharloom where everything is either in pieces or falling apart, and a new Queen who may be worse than the one they've just gotten rid of begins to stir, Lace finds that the world and something inside of herself won't give in so easily.

    Hurting on both the inside and the outside, and accompanied by a very annoying pilgrim who keeps trying to be her friend, Lace finds herself at the forefront of a battle which will change not only the course of Pharloom, but the trajectory of her life forever.

    Summary

    Hornet awakens at the bottom of a mossy ravine, exhausted, head aching. Light from above glints on the bent and broken wires of her golden cage as mossmirs chirp away in the distance. What a peaceful, verdant paradise to wake in. But how did she end up here?

    After all, she had been escaping the Void with Lace just moments ago.

    Or,

    Hornet wakes up in Moss Grotto for the first time already knowing Pharloom's fate and must find a way to overthrow the kingdom's corrupt rule before the Haunting can ever come to pass.

    Summary

    Hornet never thought she could call the days of the infection ‘simple’, but her siblings so loved to complicate things, didn’t they? Of course, she’d never have it any other way. Even if it did mean she was a child again.

    (In a desperate attempt to escape defeat, the Radiance tries to flee through time itself. Ghost follows, taking Hornet along for the ride. But they can’t very well leave Hollow behind either now, can they?

    In which Hollow causes an international incident, Hornet wants to throttle someone, and Ghost discovers that punching the Pale King is way better when he’s actually alive.)

    Summary

    “Gladly I accept your union, Eva. No longer shall you suffer eternity alone,” she had said.

    And yet.

    “I had anticipated your personality potentially taking root in my mind,” she said, “but this is more than that, isn’t it?”

    There was a stirring, a murmur, and then…

    “Lady, you address me?” something hummed back.


    Pharloom is the kingdom of wishes, and one more is granted, when Eva remains sentient after being bound by Hornet. There is nothing else for it but for them both continue Hornet’s mission, even with this miraculous new development.
