One of the most profound aspects of Hollow Knight is its environmental storytelling. Every corner of Hallownest tells a tale, often without a single word. The architecture of the Crossroads, the decay of the Fungal Wastes, the silent regality of the City of Tears—they all paint a picture of a fallen kingdom, once vibrant, now consumed by an infected dream.
As you descend, you uncover the lore through fragmented dialogues, subtle item descriptions, and the very design of the bosses you encounter.
