Moss Prophet is an NPC in Hollow Knight. They provide lore on the Infection and the Radiance.

Lore

While most Mosskin follow Unn, Moss Prophet preaches about the Radiance's light. They believe that Hallownest will be reborn once it is united in her blazing image.[2] Moss Prophet warns that suppressing the Radiance's light causes the Infection.[3][4]

In-game events

Moss Prophet is found preaching about the Radiance to a group of Mossy Vagabonds in a small room in Queen's Gardens known as the "Moss Chapel". Moss Prophet and their followers are in the early stages of the Infection. When the Knight engages the Mossy Vagabonds that sit around them, Moss Prophet hides, but once they are dead, Moss Prophet resumes singing.

After acquiring the Monarch Wings or defeating one of the three Dreamers, Moss Prophet can be found dead along with the three Mossy Vagabonds, completely overtaken by the Infection.
