Arrival

[ The Moonknights seemed to know when newcomers were arriving. Fortunately, this Cordis saw the Hollow Knight with only that sweet, night-time flower scent, and no physical changes. It did feel oddly... hungry, it supposed, but it believed that it could deal with that without tripping and falling as it tried to balance a changed body.

It was fortunate, because it would not want to make a fool of itself in front of its sibling, and the same went for the other sibling it had just spotted on arrival.

The Hollow Knight didn't know what Hornet remembered. The last vision of her it had was when her needle had flown true into the crack in its mask, and she had hurtled out of the darkness to drive it further. It remembered her balancing against its horns as she called to their sibling.

And all of it had been through a haze of orange, a light so bright it almost obfuscated the darkness in which its being resided.

It came close to her, from behind, and slowly got to one knee, as if bowing. It lowered its head, and very gently tapped on the ground beside her. Hornet was half-weaver, and it knew that weavers were very aware of vibrations near their limbs. It was the closest thing to a clearing of the throat it could make.
