– Fluke Hermit

Fluke Hermit is an NPC in Hollow Knight. She provides lore on the Flukes.

Lore

Fluke Hermit is an uninfected Fluke. She gathers some of the junk that collects in and around the Junk Pit, regarding it as treasure.[2] She notes that her mother's "glow" appears angry, hinting at Flukemarm being Infected.[3] After Flukemarm's death, she wonders if she is now the new mother.[1]

In-game events

Fluke Hermit can be found within a secret room in the Junk Pit, prodding a small fluke. After completing two Pantheons, she leaves her room and can be found peering down at the Junk Pit, wishing that the Godseeker would go away. She returns to her room afterwards. Fluke Hermit has new dialogue when she is visited while having the Flukenest Charm equipped.
