This Wyrm then transformed into the Pale King in order to match the form of the other, lesser bugs. Īt a certain point in time, a Wyrm arrived in Kingdom's Edge where it shed its shell. Further down is the Abyss at the heart of the lands' darkness, its entrance closed and sealed by the king himself. The palace itself disappeared after the Infection returned. The Hive is the artificial habitat built by a colony of bees.Īt the deepest point of Hallownest is the Ancient Basin, forgotten caverns where the Kingdom's monarch built his White Palace. Kingdom's Edge consists of a high chasm and wide caverns covered in perpetually falling white ash. On the other side, the city is sealed from the Kingdom's Edge and the Hive by a giant wall. īordering the kingdom underground on one side is Deepnest, a dark network of cramped tunnels and chasms. It rests upon the Royal Waterways, a network of pipes and cisterns to manage the city's waste. The lake's water pours down from cracks in the roof causing the city to be submerged in continuous rain. īelow the lake is the largest cavern in the lands occupied by the City of Tears, the kingdom's fallen capital. The kingdom's moths were responsible for managing these graves. Below lie the wide caves of Hallownest's Resting Grounds, filled with tombs and a subterranean lake. The mountain's caves contain growing deposits of crystals, which used to be mined for the energy contained within them. Similarly, Fog Canyon is infested with bulbous creatures and the Fungal Wastes with noxious mushrooms. Without any maintenance, they were eventually smothered by overgrown vines. The Queen's Gardens, originally part of Greenpath, were orderly built as a calm retreat for the White Lady. The leafy caverns of Greenpath and the groves of the Fungal Wastes were once tamed by the construction of roads, with the Pilgrim's Way as the main path leading from the Crossroads to the kingdom's capital. The caverns expanding below the cliffs are overgrown with luxuriant vegetation, and each with its own ecosystem. The caverns below the town were heavily transformed into crossroads to allow transportation of bugs and goods across the land. Most travellers to the kingdom reached Dirtmouth via the King's Pass, before the bridge up to it crumbled away. On the surface, the lonely town of Dirtmouth is safely nestled in a valley between the Howling Cliffs and the Crystal Peak.
They are inhabited by both sentient and wild bugs, among other creatures. The land of Hallownest covers a vast network of caves and tunnels in the middle of a wasteland. 3.3 The Infection and the Hollow Knight.
