Moths

Much of the content of this page is speculation and ideas pieced together from ingame clues.

The moths were a tribe of bugs that existed within the kingdom of Hallownest. They were created by The Radiance, who they worshiped before the arrival of The Pale King. After his arrival, they turned their backs on the Radiance and accepted the Pale King's rule.

Moths had the ability to shape dreams, which they used to create defensive charms such as the Dreamshield. The moth tribe also possessed the Dream Nail, a weapon which can cut through the veil between dreams and waking. They granted the Dream Wielder charm to those who wielded the Dream Nail and collected essence.

At an unknown time, likely after The Infection ravaged the kingdom, all but one moth, the Seer, died out. Other moths include Thistlewind, Markoth, and an unnamed moth in the Shrine of Believers.
