“Looks like you’re having a pretty good life here, huh?”
I let Petal and Grimmchild go back home first, Hornet sat down on the bench outside and spoke as I approach.
I stand behind her, listen to her quietly.
“What you were doing before I come here? Killing the monsters come up from here?”
I nodded.
“…Now you should have realized that the things are going a bit out of control now.” She sighed and said as she stands up.
I looked at her, then turn to look at the well, something is going wrong there?
“Infection is spreading to other places now.”
I looked at her as I heard it… What? Other places?
“Greenpath, Fog Canyon, Crystal Peak, and others… not completely infected yet, but it’s spreading towards these places. It looks like Vessel couldn’t hold it much longer anymore.”
I lowered my head, is he… going to die?
“Excuse me.”
Unexpectedly, she lifted my cape, looking at something down there.
“…It’s still there, King’s brand, the only thing to prove the right of a ruler of Hallownest.”
The white pattern is still as bright as it ever is.
“I’m sorry if it’s selfish for me to ask, as a sovereign, you should take actions now, Hallownest is in danger, again.”
“……”
“It’s your responsibility.”
I looked down, take action… knowing that there are only a few options I have, I can leave with my children… leave the Hallownest forever…
I shook my head, no, this is not right, this is my home.
It’s their home too, Petal, Sting, and Needle…
…And all the creatures in Hallownest.
I sighed heavily.
“I know, this will be quite disturbing, take your time to consider, but don’t take too long.”
I looked at her, she’s walking to the well.
“Our fates are on your hand now, think twice. I’ll… be waiting down there.”
She left her advice before heading down again.
