Two kindly bugs

Lie resting in grottos of their own

Their blessings, an aid

They ease passage

To the hiding place

Of Great Beings

And their boons

Old sketches I swore I would put in a queue but never did but here’s what I wrote in my drafts at the time:

I love Myla. I’m so glad nothing bad ever happens to her :))) I’m replaying Hallow Knight because of @critterbitter ‘s art lol

Anyway. Au where you can travel with her.

i don't think i ever posted this here. my analysis of the black egg seal

looking at it now i think it's possible those "moth wings" on the wyrm are just the white lady's branches forming what looks like the outline of wings, + some dots for flair

the Pale King's involvement on the making of the black egg

It is already assumed by the majority that PK was involved in some way; it is a fair assessment but I feel like it's most of the time an assumption based on PK's situation relative to it

- powerful magic being

- head of the project

- smart and inventive

So decided to gather a lil bit of evidence in favor of his direct involvement

1- The lore tablets that start with "higher beings, these words are for you alone" are more likely written by PK himself, given the one before the abyss and the fact that they open with PK's voice (plus the whispers of soul) (you could also count the world sense tablet within it).

The background that shows up behind these texts have a certain detail which in closer observation looks quite similar to the pillars of the black egg's corridor

2- both the abyss and black egg entrances are sealed with a stone door that is conjured out of thin air, with a ringed texture unlike normal shell/fossils but much like the rings of a worm (or a certain chunk of the wyrm, which is a sprite depicted here); the "key" needed to open the door displayed in white within an indentation.

Not shown in the image, but both seals (the white glowing patterns that show when casting a spell) have the glyph that represents the king's brand.

The black egg door also has a structure reminiscent of ribs, but not like the normal looking straight ribs of fossils all over crossroads (more prominent near the mawlek graveyard); rather, they're more similar to the ribs and teeth of the wyrm

Now, the seal of binding developed by the weavers seems to have been a key element in the project, but

1- it's a very specific design, which we do see within the egg but only in its central chamber

2- the pale king makes plenty use of it within the palace, so maybe it is either possible to make it in a "compact way" to be deployed afterwards at any moment and any place, or the king was able to replicate it after the first version was made

The rest of the egg could be a modified version or multiple completely different seals, but it is very likely that much of it was made by the pale king
