Summoned Saviour
Steel Soul Mode Exclusive Content
A creature born of a bug's desperate hope for strength. Few possess the skill to call the void, and of those that can, none possess the means to tame it.
The Summoned Saviour is a boss in Hollow Knight: Silksong. It is exclusive to Steel Soul Mode, and appears at the conclusion of the wish A Vassal Lost. It is a mass of old bug masks animated by Void summoned by Sula.[1]
Behaviour and Tactics
Most attack names used by the wiki are non-canon.
Upon being summoned by Sula, the Saviour materialises in the air and screams, causing rocks to crumble and locking Hornet in the cave.
The Summoned Saviour does not grant Silk for Needle hits, so there are no means of generating Silk with Needle hits during the fight.
The Summoned Saviour has five attacks, four of which are identical to the ones displayed from all the regular black-threaded enemies in Act 3. All attacks other than Air Swim are telegraphed by void particles for about one second:
- Void Tendrils: The Summoned Saviour starts charging up 2 tiny tendrils in Hornet's direction before extending them outwards, covering a distance the length of itself. This attack deals
+. - Void Blades: The Summoned Saviour releases void particles in all directions and then immediately swirls tendrils in a large circular area around itself. This attack deals +.
- Void Projectiles: The Summoned Saviour charges void particles in Hornet's direction before firing 3 consecutive void projectiles towards her. These projectiles arc very slightly. This attack deals .
- Void Blobs: The Summoned Saviour starts splashing void from its three tails and then launches 4 arcing blobs to its left and right. Upon hitting the ground, each blob then creates a small circular slash around itself. This attack deals if hit by the blobs, and + by the blades.
- Air Swim: Between attacks, the Summoned Saviour can quickly dash a set distance through the air in a random direction without warning – the angle of the dash varies, but is mainly horizontal.
The Summoned Saviour deals 
on contact.
