  • My contribution to the Hollow Knight community!
    Okay so this is my first full-length animatic and it took me far longer than it probably should have. But I'm actually super proud of it so I hope other hollow knight and AURORA fans like it too!
    I know its not perfect but i like it all the same!

    Something that I love about Hollow Knight is that Team Cherry could easily have taken the "man's reach exceeds his grasp" angle of the arrogant king enraging a goddess, but it's much beyond that. There are strong hints that, by the time of the white wyrm's reincarnation as the Pale King, the world was in a post-apocalyptic state and the majority of beings left were bugs that weren't even sentient, much less sapient. Somehow, Hallownest was intended to rescue the bugs and give them sapience, the capacity to self-determine.
    And for all the tragedy, all the suffering, all the sacrifice... It was worth it. None of it was in vain, and even if the Knight hadn't come along it still wouldn't have been in vain. Sapient bugs have spread across the world once again, far beyond the reach of the Radiance. The Pale King gave everything to ensure that bugs would be able to determine their own future.

      Thank you! Not many people see the Pale King that way; many assume him to be a heartless, selfish monarch. It's refreshing seeing such a different perspective.

      I was a little bit confused on what yo uwere talking about until the end, although there are still sentient beings around the world like the mantis lords or great hives, I still didn't really think about what a state everything was in until the birth of hallownest.

    • @annshad8019
      @annshad8019 4 года назад +64

      Actually, sapient bugs didn't spread. When bugs was leaving the Hallownest they were losing their mind. That didn't happen to Quirrel only because he had Monomon's mask, but without the kingdom he still had some troubles like some sort of amnesia

    I really like how you showed the White Queens potato eggs getting flooded with Void via their connection to her. I never even realized that the Infection likely got those vine/root-esque growths because the Radiance was using a Vessel, a being related to the White Queen, as a conduit.

    I love the animatics that give you a different perspective of the original story. This one is a good example making me feel bad for the hollow knight. He grew up to be a (imperfect) vessel and you could just see how he felt being controlled like a puppet.

    @mushrooms_and_monstercans 3 года назад +13

    I have a confession to make...
    The Hollow Knight is my comfort character.
    I create in-depth reenactments of the fight with them, imagining the sweet-smelling yet toxic gas pouring from their growths, the screams that hurt not only your ears with their volume, but your soul with the agony behind them, the light in their eye sockets flickering as they raise their nail above their mask and bring it down not upon you, but upon themself...
    I am also in the process of creating a happy ending for them, or at least as happy an ending as someone so irreparably broken can have. So many people have done post-Embrace the Void, where Ghost lives as well, but I thought I'd do something a little bit different and imagine what would happen if the Hollow Knight survived after the events of Dream No More. My story centers around the struggles that they face due to their trauma and how Hornet, though she isn't used to being nice to people, tries her best to help them through their pain.
    (That being said, this is an awesome animatic! You deserve so much more recognition than what you have!)

      @@mildlymarvelous I think the Hollow Knight stabs themselves because the Radiance corrupted their mind and gave them feelings. So they feel like they had failed their kingdom and their father.

  • @theknight1573
    @theknight1573 4 года назад +30

    This is amazing! Showing the story from the Hollow Knight's perspective made it show just how tragic its story is. Waking up and seeing the light of the King, being drawn to it and then train alongside your father with a noble goal. Who can blame him for having kept those memories close? And yet he still does all he can to contain the Radience.
    Love all the details you added, especially the eyes, tendrils lashing out to try and drive Her back. I actually liked how you when something moved, you added those little arrows. A very smart (and maybe even a bit daring) move that really worked with this animation. Amazing work, this is in my top 3 HK animations, no doubt!!

    Lyrics:
    A dancing puppet doll made of wood
    I bet he'd run away one day if he could choose to leave or stay
    He's got a string attached to every bone
    She's got him round her little finger so she'll never feel alone
    Oh sometimes I wonder, did it go
    But not the man, of course his soul
    Dreaming of a wonderland
    Wakes up and he's a man
    Sometimes I wonder, did it go
    But not the man, of course his soul
    Dreaming of a wonderland
    Wakes up and he's a man
    Oh, taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over another man's mind
    Oh, taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over his mind
    The idea of leaving her, has struck his mind
    When he sees her smile, he's hypnotized and he can't leave her behind
    Looking to his left, there's the door
    No need to try, tried it once before
    And the bounds tied him beneath the floor
    Sometimes I wonder, did it go
    But not the man, of course his soul
    Dreaming of a wonderland
    Wakes up and he's a man
    Sometimes I wonder, did it go
    But not the man, of course his soul
    Dreaming of a wonderland
    Wakes up and he's a man
    Oh, she's taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over another man's mind
    Oh, taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over his mind
    When they were out to buy her wedding gown
    She wanted nothing but the dress over a hundred thousand pound
    But what she wants, she gets, or she will cry
    Hits the man with her umbrella
    She'll continue till' he dies
    Sometimes I wonder, did it go
    But not the man, of course his soul
    Dreaming of a wonderland
    Wakes up and he's a man
    Oh, taking control over another man's mind
    Taking control of his mind
    Oh, she's taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over another man's mind
    Oh, taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over his mind
    Oh, she's taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over another man's mind
    Oh, taking control over another man's mind
    Oh taking control over his mind
