Its mystery and the prospect of hidden history and treasure has many curious explorers venture into the earth in search of the hidden kingdom. Most return empty handed and defeated, some return, driven mad, babbling about a sweet smell that lingered in the air, and a living black ocean, attacking any who came too close. and some never returned at all. But when Carina hears the story from her great grandfather Cornifer, and goes to clean his home, she finds maps, charts, and drawings, depicting what she can only assume is the forgotten kingdom. And she cant wait to find it.

The Fall of Hallownest
This novel depicts the full story of Hollow Knight in the perspectives of 5 different characters, which are represented in 5 long chapters. Many things in the Hollow Knight lore are very unclear, so we had to fictionalize some things. Please dont get mad because some events appear that are not 100% confirmed to be accurate. Im not Team Cherry. I dont have the lore bible. I dont work at ICE anymore. This isn't your typical fan fiction where everyone... ya know... does the nasty. This is a (mostly) lore accurate depiction of the Hollow Knight story (I hope. Could be dead-ass wrong tho). Like I said, we had to implement some of our own theories because many things aren't clear. Have fun reading and stuff. Also this should be obvious but Spoilers for the game Hollow KnightComplete
The Faded Kingdom
The history of Hallownest is unravelled. Long before the kingdom, the caverns pulsed with the dreams and fevers of ancient gods. This is the story of that primal world, and the pale arrival that changed it forever. All credit for the lore and world of Hollow Knight goes to Team Cherry. This is a work of fanfiction exploring the world they built.
Tales of Hallownest: Emma - Part I
By the echoes of the unknown, a strayed spirit hustles with its own past to recover what was once abandoned. Hope is scant, and darkness is imminent, yet solace is to be nourished from the solemn rest of an impending kingdom. This is the second entry in the Tales of Hallownest series, and will follow the journey of Emma Pale, lost daughter of Hallownest, as she searches for a purpose to fulfill the void within her. The story takes on a different route in comparison to the previous, but still maintains that mystical element familiar to Hollow Knight fans. Art is mine, do not repost or share without permission.
