Thistlewind

"I've been many places and done a great many things, but I suspect you will outdo me by far."

- Thistlewind

Thistlewind is a moth spirit in Hollow Knight. They give information on the Moth Tribe and on Markoth.

Lore
Thistlewind was an explorer who travelled across Hallownest. Despite the moths being a passive species, they were one of the few moths who wielded a weapon. Eventually, Thistlewind died and was buried in Spirits' Glade.

In-game events
Thistlewind appears above their grave in Spirits' Glade when the Knight approaches. They explain that they have stopped travelling Hallownest and suspect that it has become a much more dangerous place. Thistlewind wonders what became of Markoth, who went to Kingdom's Edge to uncover a truth long forgotten.

Like all other spirits, the Dream Nail can be used on them, giving 1 Essence. This causes Revek to attack.

Location
Thistlewind is located in Spirits' Glade in the Resting Grounds.
