This is my first reader insert story so feel free to give critique on this. The hollownest, a underground kingdom for all manner of bugs to live and work under the rule of the pale king. There has been rumors spreading across hollownest that he had a son, that he'll crown king after his passing which is true. The heir was dubbed Y/n soon after his birthing, however no more was expanded on this rumor since the ancient sickness began. As the days go by areas of the hollownest was added with legends built until the day a bug revisit hollownest claiming to be y/n.

!!Reboot is up on my Page. Please go read that one instead!! You were just a normal high schooler when your life is torn apart, and you find yourself in the hollow knight world as a vessel. You meet some interesting friends, Drop kick some gods, and overall have a good time. Until reality sinks in and you screw up the timeline...Can (y/n) save hallownest and *maybe* still make it home before dinner?! (CONTENT WARNING!! This story contains lots of swearing and sensitive topics are a frequent factor in this. If you are easily offended by discussion of sexuality, severe abuse, trans and homo phobias, and alcohol GO READ SOMETHING ELSE!!)
