- Today we are going to take a deep dive into the Dream Warriors found scattered throughout Hallownest. They might not make a big impact on the overall lore of Hollow Knight, but there are still a few trinkets of lore and game development insight we can gleam from these spooky specters.

Hello everyone! The original backer who created No Eyes recently made a Reddit post explaining her original backstory. It's a little different from what was shown here, so check out the link if you're interested! www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnight/comments/pawsyv/no_eyess_original_story/?context=3
Wow, after CZcams pestered me to watch this video for 3 months, I click just in time to see this.
ok
I appreciate you for updating the video after a year
Wanted to add that the "They are coming what's inside of you, strip it out" might be referencing the dreams coming and she wanting to become hollow as the Vessels were. Strip out what's inside of you... Eyes could possibly be a way of doing so, because without eyes, you achieve ultimate black.

I don't know why he changed the story. You can read the original post yourself. No Eyes gouged her eyes out herself because she couldn't see her precious children attack her and she sang them a lullaby while they killed her. In the original boss fight, the lullaby is supposed to warn the player of the direction the children will be coming from, which mossbag got right.

Best comment I've ever read, thank you

It would seem that Groot has ascended too.
I created galien, a few things, i was the only backer to specify my character used a weapon, all the others chose magic. Though they Changed the weapon style from a big cracked nail, to a scythe. I kinda dig it tbh. Another was i created a rather detailed background that was too long and ended being cut down. Originally his concept was basically in short, he went to slay all those affected by the curse and ended up overexerting and damaging his own body leading to his death. I gave them the go ahead to change the background to whatever they needed to fit better for thier game and lore. I drew a basic design and they mostly kept it that way, it was a awesome experience that i never thought id do.

"No Eyes' backstory was so dark we had to rewrite it!"
*Proceeds to write something potentially way darker*
Seriosly dont let a child see this video no eyes lore is horrifyng Jesus christ no eyes history is even more horrifyng than the vessel's history
@@Alienconnoisseur at least the King had the decency to yeet the children where no one else could see
Darkest thing about her is still her arena
You know I always wondered what No Eyes story was considering she is one of the most overtly creepy characters in the game.
....That backstory isn't quite what I expected but it certainly fits an ghost mother singing a really twisted sounding lullaby.
Why does she has a sanctum in the first place?
"they're coming" - No Eyes says to her children, the infected are approaching and they'll rise as husks too if they don't gouge themselves.
"what's inside you... strip it out" - Take out your eyes before it's too late, we'll die but at least we won't turn into light moth zombies.
That's how I read that quote after the re-contextualization given by the original backer lore.
Even more horrible thank the original :)
Yeah, that's how I interpreted it too. Not being able to see the light mightve been a desperate attempt to not get infected.
@@atherisGAY After all, the Radiance wanted everyone possible to see her and know her and WORSHIP HER LIGHT and all that shit. No Eyes's last-ditch attempt to block her out made her basically leave them for dead because blind subjects would be useless to her.
I think what happened with no eyes was that she returned to the sanctuary, to find her children all infected. In denial, she decided to get rid of the main symptoms; their glowing. orange. eyes.
and they fought back.
The explanation for the ghosts in hollow knight is that they are what we will turn into as we wait for silksong

*Plot twist:* gorb is a godseeker and he calls Escaping the wrap things 'ascending' except he lost the godseeker mask and Found a new mask which drove him crazy
I hate how that's almost plausible.
Maybe Gorb somehow got disconnected from the hive mind and that is why he's a little weird
How do you know The secrets of Gorb?
That’s actually a good theory
Oh, gorb, I didn't expect to see you here
17:00 I always interpreted the “they” here as the dreams. In fact, in my mind I always thought No Eyes’ story was the easiest to decipher.
Bugs that became infected have glowing orange eyes and had dreams of light. “They’re coming... What’s inside of you...” means that the dreams, or more accurately the Radiance, is beginning to glisten inside. So, “Strip it out!” would mean that fearing the infection, she tore out the eyes as she believed the glowing eyes had a connection to becoming infected. No Eyes tore out her and her children’s eyes because of fear of the infection, yet failed to protect them or herself.
"Gorb probably died from a coke overdose"
that's perfect

Yep that sounds like gorb😂
always assumed the reason gorb was being gorb is linked to the howling cliffs, leaving hallownest. like he was this impossibly smart genius reduced to a hooting and hollering wretch once outside of the pale king's influence
Asj that makes sense since he seems to be missing more than a few screws also the dialogue that refers to gorb as a mysterious life-form seems to imply that slugs rare and have special inborn abilities when you look at Unn.
I thought he was just a dr. Weird slug. He dies from a coke overdose demonstrating his mountain of coke weapon 😔 rip

12:50
Biblically accurate Gorb changed my life
My personal theory for No Eyes is that she somehow found out about the opposition between the void and the Radiance, and to try and make herself and her children immune to the infection, she ripped out their eyes and replaced them all with void. This theory is assisted by her sprite, which looks like void dripping from her eyes, and her line about a place where "light cannot haunt us" and "a place without dreams," since the Radiance is the exact opposite of that.
And when you defeat her and she says "you were always protecting us" could potentially be her referring to the void present in the knight
Yup, that's what I'm thinking too.
You can't see Radiance's blinding light if you have no eyes.
@CellarDoor when we hit enemies the so called blood that splatters out is white, that could be their soul or their blood
@@viriyo4958 she probably had too much insight.
@CellarDoor I dunno, whenever someone dies to the Void, their eyes bleed black like that
marmu: child like noises
no eyes: _demonic chanting_
Well, I really think Gorb died when his head exploded due to his brain growing without a stop. I mean, just look at the monument, and think about the only normal thing he says; the pain.
Video starts. mossbag: "Spoilers to *Star wars"*
Me: yea, this will be a ride
But is it for _Episode VII : the force awakens_ or _Episode VIII : the last jedi_ ?
Edit: it's the latter
Basile L'Eplattenier it’s for episode X: the last skywalker awakens
It hadn't crossed my mind until now but...
The quote "Can't dream... if you're still breathing" from No Eyes actually makes sense when you think about how to fight the dream variants of bosses like the False Knight, Soul Master, ect.
In order for those bosses to dream, you must first strike them down.
It would make sense, yes, but then you have the Dung Defender who does have a dream variant despite not being dead. My theory is that it just refers to how every infected bug is basically a reanimated body, dead, but puppeteered around by the Radiance, who is, as we know, in the Dream World.
@@ioanaalexandra6885 That would make a bit more sense. Although it's worth mentioning that the dream variants of bosses that are still alive (such as dung defender and NKG if that even counts) are all DLC. Not that it means anything though, just kinda interesting ya know?
@@bradleywade4781 That's a really good observation, didn't even realize! I think you're right about it not being of much significance, but who knows :)
I know im late but to add, maybe the line
"What inside you?"
"Strip it out"
Refer to dream or mind, basically saying. The radiance coming, get rid of your mind/dream. Which is what the radiance needed to infect.
I think Marmu could still become part of the moth tribe, as being a pile of sludge in a cocoon seems like a prime time for a ancient light god to contact you and give you a power point presentation on why you should serve her
Destroying the infection inside a dream? I think Xero was onto something and we were none the wiser.
I really like no eye's chamber. The architecture is all different from the rest of the game. Something I think is interesting about it is that it just doesn't have any lights. Even deepnest just has empty lights in it but in are there is just nothing.
omg it is statical youre my hero im so proud of you and i respect you so much keep up the good work
Don't need lights if you don't have eyes!
Slightly off topic, but I was playing steel mode, and it turns out you don't have to defeat no eyes to get the mask shard

No Eyes’ song IS probably the bugnish version of her original song. The “1, 2, They’re coming for you... 3, 4, better watch the floor..” still lines up with her song in game

@ISABELLA ABALOS My favorite show! Lemniscate Locomotive!
@ISABELLA ABALOS infinity train?
"Bugnish"? That's a cute name for the game's little nonsense language, I like it 💙
I definitely think Gorb being a godseeker has more credit than was stated
"The Beyond" could very well be the "Land beyond Hallownest"
the term lifeform could also be related to how godseekers are a hivemind, although i dont think that holds much weight (still probably more than aliens lmaooo)
I've always thought Gorb was a Godseeker that took off his mask and went insane because he tried to attune without it. Maybe it's how he lost connection to the godseeker's one mind as well.
And technically, just because the Godseekers are wrapped up like mummies doesn't mean they aren't sluglike. In my opinion, the godseeker sitting by the lake appears sluglike. Considering we never see one walk around, it's impossible to conclude.
Additionally, "mysterious life form" matches up with Godseekers as well. They aren't native to Hollownest, they came from somewhere else. If one showed up before the infection, describing it as a "mysterious life form" checks out.
On top of all that, "dreamborn god of the beyond" fits in with the very *existence* of godhome. It exists in the dream realm, but beyond any normal dream, as only those attuning or being attuned to can access it
This comment is already so old but damnn I like this theory a lot
A bit late to comment on the theory, but I was thinking the godseekers might be slug like until I realised you can the the god seeker in the junk pit very clearly has limbs and isn't slug like
No Eyes is dark as hell, and I love it. I also found Marmu’s dialogue rather sad- she died protecting the garden of a hidden queen, waiting for her to teach her to fly.
and the worse thing is he has a marked grave which means the white lady would have known
So am I the only one who compares Marmu to Spinel from Steven Universe or…
He started talking about Gorb and decided to go full “Ancient Aliens” on us
ancient aliens, its all true, im an expert just like you!
@@bowlwasprobablytaken7149 And like you im a genius, before my time!
@@TheDJBrojo disbelieving, thats the real crime!
8:45
Theory: Markoth learned/suspected the truth about the Radience, how they turned their backs on her to serve the Pale King, and more than likely came to prove his suspicions by searching and finding the moulting shell of the Pale Wyrm.
I personally think the background info behind Marmu is really sweet! Here we have a mother supporting her son financially, and him putting a part of her into the game. While Marmu as a character does not tie too much into the game, I feel it could be the mother's favourite animal, and the carefree and happy character may reflect her. It's heartwarming to think of it this way, and I almost hope this theory is true.
So how long till the “hornet is void” discord bots are made
luckily saying hornet is void is against the rules
Yeah we dont want to promote misinformation
They are null and void.
Idk but we already need them
Something about gorb:
Maybe the beyond is just the surface.
Hallownest seems to be completely underground, with no connection to the surface.
Maybe, ascending with Gorb, is going to the place he came from, the surface.
Edit: I made this comment yesterday and it has so many likes already! I guess my random thoughts are good sometimes...
Very interesting theory. I imagine the surface would be an alien environment for most of the bugs in Hallownest, so it ties in with the use of the term "lifeform". It _might_ also tie in with the theory that Gorb is a Godseeker. The Godseekers come from the Land of Storms, where they worshipped the Gods of Thunder and Rain. This area seems to be above the surface since, well, there's no storms underground.
Aren't the Howling Cliffs above ground? I like this theory, but if Gorb is found above ground anyways, where does he ascend to?
@@SpitFyre37 i think howling cliffs is still in a cave

I alweys thought that Xeros line "Ah.. I can see now. Those who turn ageinst the King are doomed as soon as they raise their weapon" is interesting. It could mean that kinds knights are simply that compedent but.. i think there is something more, that Pale Kind could pretty much paralise of straight up kill his subjects wiht his will power. Its a bit of a streach but its based on the tablets on the end of Hollownest "Those foolish enough to traverse this void must pay the toll and relinquish the precious mind this kingdom grants". If its the Pale King who gives reason to the bugs, and without him they lose it, it is possible that he fills them wiht his light sorta like Radiance does, and that he can take it awey from his subjects. Its a bit of a streach but Xero line was too specific for me, i hope its worth consideration.
streach
You fool. The pale king is a mafioso.

Xero I always took in two ways he was a elite captain of the hallownest military fallen to the radiance.
Or
Xero was a elite captain who sought to overthrow the caste structure of hallownest society both the grub confirm this caste system and the prejudice of it, so Xero attempts rebellion and is subsequently crushed due to the pale king predictions alerting him to Xero's treachery.

Dude, the tactic for markoth is patience. Run around the stage in a circle until he spins his shield and then charge slash him a few times.
Except his idea for Markoth was different from the one implemented. And the names of those who changed it aren't really hidden.
You have team cherry to blame for godhome's no floor fight. That was all them
One thing about the ghost is that, even while being backers things, in game they really didn't feel out of place. It felt pretty natural to find some warrior of the pasts, with their own personnalities and such.
Given that going by the interviews in this video, Team Cherry changed basically everything they wanted except base concepts about the backer bugs. It only makes sense they now fit so well.
Going by Markuth, they didnt even tell the backers that they decided to make the dead warriors unaware that they died now.
i don't think all ghosts are inherently unaware of death, though some definitely are. cloth is aware she is dead after the traitor lord kills her and her ghost appears, saying she's going to nola or something like that, who I assume is probably also dead from her dream dialogue if you save her after defeating the traitor lord. the bugs' attitude towards evidence of their own death might (in some cases) just be like when something happens to you and time passes and it becomes nothing but just "something that happened", though it is hard to tell
How Xero fought while he is alive:
He uses lance like nails and throws them like spear for long range, and uses their bladed edges for close range combat.
How Markoth fought while he was alive:
Uses his shield in one hand and his nail in the other, most likely very acrobatic.
How Gorb fought while he was alive:
His ultimate brain capacity allows him to pick up nails with his telekinesis and launch them toward his foes. Or perhaps he CREATES THE NAILS WITH HIS MIND!
How Galien fought while he was alive: spin threw his scythe for a ranged attack and used its sharp edges for close ranged attacks
How No Eyes fought when she was alive:
Unknown, most likely used a nail like most of the bugs in Hallownest. Maybe she threw her weird ass children at her foes and tore their eyes out 👀
How Elder Hu fought while he was alive:
Most likely didn't do much, but his dream attacks suggest he might have used spells.
How Marmu fought while she was alive:

Gorb in one word: ASCEND
ASCEND ASCEND, ASCEND WITH GORB
I just wanted that ascended Gorb be the hardest ascended it would be so cool
The hunter’s journal describes Gorb as Gorb
Oh hey, my theory for no eyes was not that far off, if yours is correct
Rewatching Hollow Knight lore vids at 1AM instead of sleeping is the greatest vibe
4:48 looks like Hu came from silksongs area (cant think of the name big whoops)
prayer beads, that tan monk-like outfit, even the wider, more stout kind of bodyshape all tie it in personally
What if silksong is a prequel and most of the ghosts we saw in hollow knight will appear in silksong
By making silksong prequel ,team cherry can keep all endings as canon
Xero: turns against Pale King
Pale King: So you've chosen death
I mean it's kinda fair
Nobody:
The pale king making clones: *some of you may die, but that's a risk I'm willing to take*
mossbag! I have a special request. I've been a huge Hollow Knight fan and I always loved watching your videos and I really want you to show me something.
My request is can you make a video about literally every secret little thing in the game that doesn't give a "percentage". Like for example the dream nail-able moth world with backer quotes and the uhm grub virtue something.. and the secret zote boss in the Hall of Gods! I never seen ANY of these! I really want to just see and appreciate every little thing in the game before I once and for all finish it. (All bindings on Pantheon of Hallownest.. fuck its so hard)
Oh oh god, they’re coming. One last thing before I go... WILLLOH LOOKS LIKE A GRIMM STEEEE- *insert primal aspid noises*
Mossbag you goof
The beyond most likely refers to the lands outside of hallownest; and of pale king's influence (he is situated at the howling cliffs after all).
I think gorb was a bug who, amidst the mindless bugs of the "beyond", somehow got access to knowledge, and thus claimed himself as a great mind.
My banner!!!!! Also more seriously doesn't it look like no eyes has void in her?
It does, but having such streaks doesn’t mean that you have any relation to the void. The traitor’s child and the lord fool have these streaks and they are completely unrelated to the substance
@@Ismael-kc3ry 🤔 yeah you're probably right, I immediately made the correlation with the guy of the tower of love
@@ze_zamzam yeah the collector. He got messed up (also congrats on the banner, it looks amazing)
@@Ismael-kc3ry thanks! And thanks for the explanation of course
@@ze_zamzam np
Mossbag after telling prayer beads feels out of place : "But it seems like Team Cherry is actually going to incorporate another character into Silksong who uses the same aesthetic."
Markoth : "Am I a joke to you ?"
11:47 I have a poster with that image in my bedroom
