Mitemother
Poor of sight but possessing a keen sense of smell, it uses its bulk to charge at foreign scents. Remaining fierce so far into old age is an admirable trait.
Mitemothers are enemies in Hollow Knight: Silksong. They are female Mites that have grown especially large and powerful with age.[1]
Behaviour and Tactics
Mitemothers generally hop back and forth across a flat area, turning around upon reaching the edge. When one spots Hornet, it screams, then hops towards her at greater speed. It deals 
upon contact.
