   Summary

   Metal Sonic can’t do the same things organics can.
   She can tear and shred foes in the blink of an eye, reach the sound barrier easily, or even wrap herself in a ball of fire.
   But she can’t feel. Not truly.

   At least this proposal of Sonic’s was interesting.

   Summary

   After devouring the Godseeker, the newly ascended Lord of Shades begins devouring the Waterways around her, only to be stopped by the weak, newly freed Hollow Knight.

   Well, distracted might be a better term for it.

   Summary

   The Hollow Knight thinks itself worthless and deserving of hurt, and deals with that in awful ways that only make it worse. Hornet still tries to help it even though it feels undeserving of that.

   Summary

   Do not think is now an aimless mantra for you. Not that you could realistically believe it before, but now you have proof those words ring hollow in a mind that is not. I hear you repeat it to yourself; you picture a warm sky and a rising sun, far above the mists of the humid surface below which you reside. My wings unfurl. Your small shadowy figure and its large, empty eyes bask in my glory. You trained yourself to truly mimic thoughtlessness, your gaze ignores my light.

   (The Radiance sends out a futile prayer through the emptiness.)
