Summary
The first age of Hallownest has passed. The second age, rising from the ashes of the shattered infection, is only just beginning.
Ghost has lived their entire life within the walls of The White Palace, raised mainly by their mother, The White Lady. For almost as long as they can remember, they’ve had a strange connection to another young bug named Hope, who seems to live in The City of Tears with their younger sister. When an opportunity arises for them to finally see each other, it only raises a thousand new questions for both. As they begin to try and find those answers, their separate worlds start to crumble around them.

Summary
After Monomon's call is answered and Hallownest falls into peaceful quiet, Quirrel decides it's time to let go and makes a decision at the Blue Lake-- Where he is ambushed by a group of unfamiliar bugs draped in white and used to lure a certain half-Weaver into a trap. Now, Hornet has been whisked away to Wyrm-knows where, Quirrel is left with nothing but a bell and a cranky Relic Seeker to guide him, and a new type of horrific infection is sprouting up at an alarming rate... Maybe he still has some adventuring left in him, after all. (Or Quirrel and Lemm become unexpected best friends while Hornet beats up silk-possessed bugs in a cogwork wonderland.)

From the largest promise of a human, to the smallest heart song of a beetle, may our little stars grant their aide and flourish among the cosmos...”

Blind Cataloging: Chains of Hallownest by CynderMoon

Summary
Okay let me reassess:
1) I have been Isekai’d into Hollow Knight (lovely!)
2) I apparently chose this but sold my memory of this for extra cash(?) (great job past me…)
3) If I want to leave I have to “capture” things
4) silver lining: I am Makima
I'm so royally fucked.
Or: Shameless Waifu Catalog fic with a protag who sold her memory of the Company. That and an abnormal obsession with violence.
Spiced chapters have * in the title.

Summary
Unlike the trend, she's not the villainess.
How will the First Sinner, Atla, fare as the nerdy side character? Or will she take center stage?

And most importantly, will she manage to pass her history exam and still have time to work on her gadgets?This is a college. Not a high school. All bugs are proper dating age.

Summary
Hornet, in her infinite (scientific) wisdom, decided to plug in and test the Weaver device she found. In a flash of light, she found herself back in Hallownest, in a time where the infection wasn't even a figment of a dream to most. In order to change things, all she has to do is kill a god. She did that once already, how hard could it be to do a second time?

Carefully, at a pace that will not harm any human, or property should there be a collision, G3-B makes their way forward.
And runs into a wall."or
A Mail Delivery Robot finds themselves spontaneously transported to Deepnest, and does their best to survive in a world of gigantic bugs. With the power of code, friendship, and extreme denial of any form of emotion they could possibly experience, they fix everyone's problems. More or less.

Summary
"That light foreseen has turned cold upon this kingdom.
The seeds of war have been sown, we do not invite it now.
May Its sacrifice bless our Hallownest Eternal."What if everyone in Hollow Knight lived during the golden days of the Pale King's rule?
This story follows the adventures of Hornet, Tiso, and the palace ghost, as they travel Hallownest in pursuit of their own goals. Hornet: a princess who wishes nothing more than to live a rugged life outside of her duties as the kingdom's heir, Tiso: an immigrant both looking to make a name for himself as a soldier and integrate into Hallownest's unfamiliar culture, and the knight: one of the Pale King's seven "impure vessels" who's seeking to find purpose in his life after not being chosen as the Hollow Knight.
As they interact, their goals eventually begin to intertwine into one singular mission: protecting Eternal from the wrath of the Radiance.(Bonus details: Quirrel is a scholar/espionage artist, the Pale Court knights are the king's law enforcement, nearly all of the Spirit's Glade spirits are alive/repurposed as extra characters throughout the story, and the Colosseum of Fools/The Grimm Troupe are criminal organizations.)

Summary
“Oh my gods,” you mutter [...] as your eyes wander back to the statue. “It's all my fault. I'm the reason that Hallownest fell.”
“What could possibly urge you to think that way?” Quirrel asks.
[...] “It's because I corrupted the Hollow Knight,” you say plainly, even though the words leaving your own mouth still astound you.
[...] “I was the Hollow Knight's lover.”Years on the outside beyond the Wastes have aged you and forged you into much more of a jaded wanderer, yet you find yourself pulled to the ruins of a kingdom called Hallownest, only to uncover that this is not your first time being here. A love from long ago had called you here, and you'll do anything to earn them back.

Summary
The Knight takes Quirrel by the hand, leads him away from the Blue Lake's shore, and beckons him to follow them. For whatever reason, Quirrel agrees. Hallownest's many twists and turns may be daunting, but when an archivist and his knight get it into their heads to protect each other, few dangers are any match for them.

Summary
“In recognition of your noble efforts,” Pavo continued, raising his voice once more, “and as one small step to solving the problem, I have decreed a grand gift should be given! A bellhome of your very own!”
In which Hornet accepts the gifted bellhome out of politeness, but finds herself increasingly attached to Bellhart and the idea of having a place that’s hers. Maybe safe places don’t have to die. Maybe some good things can last.

Summary
Undeath sucks, would not recommend.
Alternate description:
Being the vampire daughter of a vampire queen sounds like everyone's biggest dream: all the blood you can drink, absolute respect from your peers, and plenty of cool lesbian vibes?
Lace doesn't have any of those; her mother is too gluttonous and greedy to share with her, her peers are all too afraid of her to respect her, and Mother would never let her so much as hug another woman, let alone kiss them.
As if that wasn't bad enough, her only shot at freedom is drinking the blood of a demigoddess that has been brought to Pharloom by force, but Lace just can't do it.Series

Summary
Death was not the end. For the Wyrm, it was ascension. For you, it was a cruel rebirth into a dying world - unchanged and laid bare.
Hallownest stands at the height of its splendor, yet a rot stirs beneath its polished surface. A mind-eroding plague spreads in silence, and in this rising sickness, the humanity that should have damned you instead gives you value.
To deny the desperate bugs is to shatter their hope. To accept is to invite a disaster born of faith. How do you survive a kingdom that admires the mediocrity you curse, and whose belief might just make their delusion real?
