Hollow Knight Musical Bytes - Hornet ft. @EmilyGoVO
(Spoken)
This old kingdom… A terrible thing awakens. I can smell it in the air
I know what you are. I know what you’d try to do. I can’t allow it
Howling
Feeble young creature
You dare to test the plague
Struggle against the night
But you shall not best my blade
A vessel quests in vain
Test your might
Against the knight
And nothing shall remain
Little ghost without a mind
Pity for your cursed kind
Shell within the void, you would seek the end
Who would claim the hollow, let the light extend
I will not back down, I will not stand by
While there is an ending that I would defy
Needles pulling thread, spiders pulling silk
They will have no pity if the dark is killed
So this piercing blade stands against the shade
‘Til their silver sheen can end this dark crusade!
Long as the knight’s will survives
I’ll keep this kingdom alive
Still you’ve an admirable drive
Face the sting
Of the child of kings
From all his hopes derived!
Not bad
You have some skill
For a vessel with no soul
You’ll learn
For all your will
There are things you can’t control
A void you can’t make whole
Learn your past
And clash as stronger foe!
(Spoken)
So you’d pursue the deeper truth? It isn’t one the weak could bear
Show me you can accept this Kingdom’s past and claim responsibility for its future
Lost child
Prove yourself worthy
To bear this kingdom’s fate
Or fall
I’ll not hold back
If the weak die at my blade
From where do you draw strength?
Child of kings, if you succeed
Then hallowed be thy name!
Child with the void bestowed
Ours is a lonely road
Shell within in the void, you would face the end
Claim the mark of kings if kingdoms you’d defend
I will not stand down, I won’t stay my nail
‘Til I see the strength that proves you can prevail
Needles pulling thread, spiders pulling silk
They will have no pity if the dark is killed
So this piercing blade stands against the shade
‘Til their silver sheen can end this dark crusade!
Long as the knight’s will survives
I’ll keep this kingdom alive
Still you’ve an admirable drive
Face the sting
Of the child of kings
From all his hopes derived!
Well done
Raise up your nail
And face down your father’s shame
Onward
Dare not to fail
For this kingdom’s life you claim
You must end this game
Go, hold fast
To face the past
And end this dark crusade!
