This Hollow Knight Boss Would Have Been Incredible

    Dryya is one of the Great Knights, the legendary defenders of Hallownest. She served the White Lady, and can be found dead outside of her cocoon, serving the best she could until her bitter end. And that's all she is now... but she used to be a lot more in early drafts of the game. Enjoy :)
    I am making a series of Hollow Knight Shorts that go over some fun facts in the game, some basic tutorial things, and just generally interesting details of our favorite Metroidvania. Let me know if there is anything I should make a video on!
    Music Used: Waveshaper - A Picture in Motion (from Furi original soundtrack)

    It would have been a cool fight for sure, but I think that lore-wise, it made more sense for her character to get the death that she received in the game as we know it. Maybe they could have made it a dream nail fight. I just prefer the idea of her dying to protect the queen; Traitor Lord is already "possessed by madness" as it were.

      I like this too. And the Queen didn’t even know she was gone - I love the vague, subtle and tall tale approach to their lore building. We sort of had to put these pieces together ourselves and the rest of it is truly something of myth and legend -
      Very much like our own history in a lot of ways. It’s just brilliantly done.

    Its clear that she got replaced by the Traitor Lord. The Traitor lord was infamously underdeveloped on initial release, needing to be reworked in one of the major DLC updates. I think the Traitor lord was added pretty late in development.
    The way they describe her canceled boss fight remind me of how Lace's fight looks like in Silksong. They probably recycled some of their old designs

    On a lighter note, I recall hearing that there is a fanmade mod in the works that seeks to introduce all 5 of the Great Knights as boss fights. I forget how long ago I first heard about it, but I assume it’s still in development, so perhaps we may still get the chance to fight her and the others.
