Summary
Runt hatched the last of Huntress's brood: small, weak, and destined to die in the harsh wilds of Pharloom without the support of the brood. That's just how the world works, nature red in tooth and claw. But sometimes, a completely different world reaches out a helping claw. A foreign stranger introduces the little hunter to another way to live, where "I" is not weak without "us," and people have more to offer than the strength of their shell alone.
*****
Decades after the defeat of the Radiance, the Abyss is at peace and the rebuilding of Hallownest has ushered in a new era of stability, one free of divine machinations. Until Hornet is taken. The Hollow Knight mounts a rescue only to find their efforts unnecessary and not entirely welcome. They just want to go home. Too bad there's a pesky little apocalypse standing in their way, and a wild Pharloom bug intent on treating them like some sort of... role model.

Updates whenever the author manages it.
(Spoilers for "Vessel for the Radiance" ahead)
The sealing has ended. The sun rose once more. Now it’s time to face the broken world left behind.
Hollow hadn't thought they would survive this. They had bargained with everything: with the story of their creation they were never supposed to share, with the life they were never supposed to have, with the love they were never supposed to feel... And lost.
The fact that they lived through it seems the cruelest fate of them all. But they will try to bear it. For their sister. For their love.Noon is trying to piece together his fractured reality. He knows the truth about the infection now, just like everyone in Dawnbreak. He had faced his mother, his creator, his god for that truth, and there is no going back. Nothing will make the world right again.
But he can’t fall apart now. His land needs him… Hollow needs him.Hornet just wants to go home. Even if she doesn't know where home is. Even if her father is missing and her mother... She won't think about her mother.
It doesn't matter. She had gotten this far. She will finally bring her sibling home, and she will fix all of this.Series

Now SHE was ready to attempt another such illusion. They would not let themselves fall for it again.
