Summary
The Pure Vessel hadn't expected to ever walk out of the Temple of the Black Egg, and it certainly hadn't expected to find a home and a family on the other side. Surviving the Radiance was one thing, but learning to live in a world it had been denied its whole life was a challenge it had never been prepared to face.
Nor were the thoughts it could no longer ignore.

Summary
The Pure Vessel knew what it had to do, for the sake of Hallownest, for the sake of its King. It thought it was prepared for that ultimate sacrifice, and the fate such a sacrifice carried.
To think that - to think at all - was in fact the very heart of its failing, in the end.

Summary
"I want for one of them."
A pause. “You wish for an imperfect vessel?”
“I want for a child, my Wyrm. One full of life who will learn and wonder and grow.”
