Summary
The Hollow Knight was never intended to live.
The Hollow Knight had never been given the chance to live.
-
Hornet doesn't know how to be a caretaker. Hallownest doesn't remember how to be a kingdom. The higher beings left in its dying territory don't know what to expect of the god in the Abyss.
And through it all, a vessel that wished to be pure now doesn't know what they should be wishing for in a world that changed so much while they were contained.- Language:

When the quakes began, it was caught entirely unaware, knocked off its tarsi and sent clattering to the ground, left to watch as two things occurred simultaneously: blackened threads began consuming the eternal Citadel and the ceiling above it began collapsing.

Gods, how could she have been so… so leashed. Maybe that old bitter man underneath Bellheart spoke some truth. Perhaps everyone is a slave to something.
Suppose, something like the past. Standing in front of every living being, taking up all the space in periphery.
Clinging. Grieving. Aching.Bookmarked by AstroAzalea

Summary
From her mother, she learned the importance of making her own way, of charting her own path, even when it means standing apart from others.
From her mentor, she learned to be a survivor, to see the vicissitudes of the world they are without embellishment, and to face them well prepared.
From her father, she learned… From him-
From her step-mother, she learned to carry suffering and disgrace with dignity and elegance, and to let sorrow be her teacher when it could not be avoided.

Summary
Something is very wrong in Hallownest.
The Hollow Knight wakes up outside the Temple of the Black Egg. Hornet feels a shift in the kingdom from all the way in Greenpath. Together, the two of them discover the sacrifices each has made—and the grief neither one of them was allowed to feel.

Summary
In the aftermath of Pharloom's functional collapse, a few remnants of the old kingdom linger. Some more hostile than others.
Hornet learns the hard way that the one responsible for her arrival in Pharloom was not the only one with a distinct interest in her, and that, though she has seen the breadth and depths of this kingdom's cruelty, having witnessed the remnants of that cruelty inflicted on others does not make her more resistant to its attention turning directly upon her.
Fortunately, she isn't alone in Pharloom. Unfortunately, her allies can do very little for her when they have no idea where she is, and being found by one does not necessarily mean being found by all- nor does one ally's presence make her escape complete.

Summary
Even among trashy harem power fantasy novels, Proud Immortal Demon Way took the cake for having its protagonist literally objectify people—that is, as a Heavenly Demon, Luo Binghe had the power of turning people into weapons, willingly or otherwise! Either way, they disappeared into an innumerable collection headlined by Xin Mo, the blade Luo Binghe made out of his scum villain shizun Shen Qingqiu, and that he brutally dominated until its spirit faded into nothing.
When Shen Yuan unwillingly takes on the role of Shen Qingqiu—well, maybe he can’t avoid his ultimate fate as a sword, but he can still try to make it a little less painful for everyone involved.
Probably.

Summary
During her travels, Hornet finds a mysterious shackle meant to bind malfunctioning automatons for future disassembly. Such a discovery would be insignificant — except more and more similar shackles keep appearing around the choral chambers, as if hunting a certain prey.
She's not the only one who has noticed. The Second Sentinel of Pharloom remembers such shackles from ages ago — and if their suspicion is correct, it is not just themselves who is in danger from an old hunter's obsession.
It will take both of their combined strength to combat this unseen foe…
(…and if that draws them closer together, well. That's just a bonus.)
