– Fearful Pilgrim

Fearful Pilgrim is an NPC in Hollow Knight: Silksong. She is found meditating in Bone Bottom Bellway station before starting her own pilgrimage.

In-game Events

Fearful Pilgrim can be found meditating in Bone Bottom Bellway station before beginning her own pilgrimage. She explains that she is resting away from the rest of the camp due to her fear of the wider world, before giving Hornet some information about Bellways.

If Hornet travels to the station by Bell Beast, or summons the Bell Beast there, Fearful Pilgrim is startled by its appearance. She leaves after Hornet either rests at a Bench or leaves Bone Bottom. She also leaves if Bellhart is entered or if the Skull Tyrant attacks Bone Bottom. Afterward, her body appears in the Marrow, in the room below the Flea Caravan’s first location, with two Rosaries lying beside it.

Dialogue

General First encounter Oh... you've come to hide down here too, then? 'Tis a fearful world out there. If you can keep quiet, I don't mind you joining me. You've chosen a curious place to rest, ma'am. This pit of bells and the structure around it... they suggest a station for travel, though one long abandoned. Aye. Rumours in the camp say these bells run throughout the lands, great veins of them, forged by our ancient kin. And some even say bugs used to travel through them, in gilded carriages no less! Surely such fanciful travel would be a sin for us pilgrims. We must walk and climb and crawl using only our own meagre claws... Only thus can we prove our devotion. Revisiting Hrm? Oh, it's you again. Please, no more talk of bells or travel. I'm trying to stay hidden. I mean no intrusion, ma'am. Are you composing yourself here before you leave on your own journey? Like all the others, my brothers and sisters who trudged off to die? No, I think I'll linger here a little longer with my thoughts... Speaking, if Hornet has already had the revisit conversation and has neither defeated Bell Beast nor entered the area beneath its arena or the section of the Marrow immediately to the right of the paid bench. Have you heard the talk of what waits just beyond this camp? Brittle caverns of bone, the very base of Pharloom, filled with all manner of deadly creatures and jagged dangers. It's said ancient bugs once made their homes amidst it. Who could believe! In such a hostile, unstable place! In all my time, I've never met a bug so brave. Exhausted dialogue Down here, you can't hear the cries of the pilgrims above, only the faintly ringing bells. I'll stay and meditate a little longer, before I start my own pilgrimage... After arriving with the Bell Beast, or calling them to the station, or if the Skull Tyrant attacks Bone Bottom Beast! B-b-beast! Horrible beast! Playing the Needolin Our last rest... To reach your light... Always up... Stay together... Save your strength... Defeat your fear... Why so few?... For you, dear Pharloom... Climb to glory! Climb to death...

Trivia

• It is only possible to see the Fearful Pilgrim's Needolin dialogue if none of her leave conditions are fulfilled. This means the Needolin has to be obtained by entering Shellwood from the Wormways and then defeating Widow, since Bellhart cannot be entered.
