My summer vacation started a month earlier ie today and It will end on 9th June lol

@@anujsisodiaNOOB Good thing I'm posting lore June 10th so you'll end the summer on a strong note (if you enjoy my lore that is xD)

I’ve wondered forever why the puppet has dream dialogue.

@@3DOM_ Probably b/c it was game ended by its "stronger" great hopper brother

Team Cherry: Maybe

This was a real interaction

@@LaMiaSorte oh, really? man.

@@caiterbunch3932 It was not with me specifically, I remember seeing the interaction in a video that showed it.

Oro is just a tsundere really lol

Oro just takes after sly

Oro just owes him some cookies.

Maybe the dummy's dream nail dialogue was just what the hopper heard Oro say as he killed and/or propped it up.... If the dummy is basically ment to be Mato, then Oro must of been talking to it. (No like he's got anyone else to talk to..)

@@absolite6 You can sometimes get dream nail dialogue from statues. Likely the dreams poured in from those who have focused a lot on them. So my theory is just that Oro has been so focused on the training dummy that his desires/dreams have etched themselves on the dummy.

@@ExileTwilight I don't understand how I haven't seen anyone actually say what it is here. It's not just a training dummy, it's a corpse of a great hopper. The 'brothers' is in reference to the great hoppers that come to attack you if you keep nailing the corpse. The wanderer's journal supports this.

@@ExileTwilight your point? The fact that it's a corpse means the dreamnail dialogue came from the hopper, probably its last thoughts. It couldn't have come from anywhere else. And like I said, the brothers are in reference to the great hopper's kin that are in hiding.

@@BlappetureCO So is the Dashmaster enshrined in his statue? Is the Radiance in the statue at the crown of hallownest? Living things or corpses are not the only things that can carry 'dreams', enough focus on an object can also make it resonate with those dreams.

This comment should have more likes. 😂

He was the only one who didnt pay Sly's tutoring fees (?)

I wanna like but it’s at a nice number.

@@Tintin_Quarentino so Oro is just making us pay his tuition. Got it.

@@ryuudevie7 I think I saw a npc named esmy teach hornet something

In some stories... Or maybe Sly's wife in a way... And she is a mother figure to them which probably why the brothers are are arguing... Well there is a version of that... My version would be something like taking out on *Chinese fantasy kungfu and sword fighting art* drama: I mean for my version this is how it goes: Esmy is Sly's younger sister. Mato is probably in love with Esmy. But when Mato, Esmy, Oro and Sly go to some place together... Somehow Esmy got infected... Sly can't let go Esmy when she got infected by Radiant. Sly can't give the finishing blow as that is his sister. Mato well... That's his lover. So surely he becine clueless on what to do. Oro took the sacrifice and dealt finishing blow to Esmy and that caused Mato to become angry and express hatred also lost all reasoning and fight Oro until they somehow come to an agreement or maybe they respect Sheo who arrived late and then move with different path and they told a different story of what happened to Esmy. Sheo who also probably saw Esmy's dead body, and having heard stories from both made him confused and lives in Greenpath secluding himself in thorny area trying to move on by learning different arts. Indulge himself in the arts of creation which is opposite to the arts of nails that caused death... Maybe Sheo is also trying to forget what happened to Esmy but also sad upon what happens between his brothers and even more sad since he himself doesn't have any clear idea of what had transpired between them. While Oro and Mato lives far apart from each other's. Esmy death must have caused Sly to be heartbroken that he probably treading the and following the infection because he wanted to avenge his sister's death by destroying the infection but his mind was also in disarray which caused Sly's mind to be infected until The Knight found him. Sly doesn't blame any of his pupils since he still has reasoning... And then Sly finally comes to terms after saved by the Knights. Or at least this is my version of stories about those Nailsages... 😅😅😅😅😅

@@viperakmal interesting theory. His seclusion in kingdoms edge could also be him attempting to stay away from people as to not hurt them anymore. But at the same time the theme of love isn’t something I see in hollow knight. Either way it’s fun to think about.

I think it is stated in the game that Sheo was the most skilled one among the brothers

@@tomasapud8240 yeah... AND HE IS POWERFUL. AND ALL HES USING IS PAINT. HES STRONGER THAN THE 2 OTHER BROTHERS COMBINED. WITH PAINT. The pen is mightier than the sword it has no limitation.

There isn't a ton of evidence for this, but that feels 100% like something Oro would do.

Interesting theory.

There's Dream Nail dialogue in the Brothers Oro and Mato fight for Mato that says "Don't leave me behind!" I assumed that was what caused the divide- Oro thought he had to fight alone, but Mato considered fighting together to be most important, and felt like Oro was abandoning him.

Maybe she was the nailmasters’ mother?

@@Barakon Maybe she'll show up in the next game.

Maybe Esmy was Sly’s sister? The “How much deeper do we have to go” could’ve been them together training under high stakes, like you said. From what we know so far, siblings tend to share the last letter of their names, and like you mentioned, Sly and Esmy both end with “Y”

How much deeper sound a tad bit sis ngl

Maybe Esmy is Isma ? It sounds like a pet name,

Maybe esmy is the ancient nailsmith

Damn

Wait, in the house you find sly

esmy could be sly’s lover or something similar

@@typical8903since Oro, Mato and Sheo share the same last letter of their names and are brothers, Sly and Esmy could be siblings as well.

Even though he's physically stronger than Mato, mentally he's no where near his brother. Very good take you've made!

Ngl pretty sure mato saved oro in a way that dishonored oro, which is why he is owed something, but ashamed and does not show until needed in the pantheon

Wait that actually makes sense

​@@Ccmacihonestly i dont think oro is physically stronger than either of his brothers. when waking up sly, he says the line "oro... you wield your nail... like a club". he mightve just said one of the three brothers at random, but he *did* specifically say oro. along with the "stronger... brothers..." dream dialogue from the training dummy, i believe oro was always the weakest of the three. this explains why hes so fixated on "proving himself", aka proving hes worthy of his brothers. thats where his lone wolf mentality stems from, why decided to part on his own, leaving mato behind, leading to the whole conflict

If you hit that training dummy 25 times, Two great Hoppers will come to stomp your ass.

@@vraolet holy- I didn’t know this I need to now try it out

@@Lia-et8ii if you have the randomizer mod installed it's around 25 great hoppers instead

when the hollow knight lore video has it's own lore

The nailmasters were around when the 5 great knights existed, so I wouldn't be surprised if during all this time since then he heard rumors about the beacon, but who knows.

The corpses of the colisseum are all around the place in kingdoms edge, so hes not wrong.

lol he kinda sounds like a girl

@@sevdrakegavial Well, considering I am a girl that makes sense, astute observation xD I'm not great at making my voice sound lower so I hope you'll forgive me for sparing you that

lol you could work as anime protoganist voice actor. ( because females voice dont change drasticly over time it works for making a long term show and no offense but i kinda sounded like a guy for a while when doing sheo untill i realized it was a female voic acting) but i bet u knew all of this considering u are a girl.

Actually for all intents and purposes, the bosses are their real selves. This is proven by characters such as Hornet and Grimm showing awareness of where they are and what's going on.

@@cronostrife431 For the nailmasters it's just a dream

@@cronostrife431 Hornet and Grimm are higher beings.

@@akapilka Ok, grimm being a higher being checks out. But, I'm not really sure about Hornet, and we have no evidence in the favor of or against either option.

Hornet is the daughter of the pale king. She is 50% higher being.While grim is 100% higher being. That's why hornet is confused during the Pantheon, and grim knows exactly what's going on, just like the knight.

this actually makes so much sense!

Much appreciated!

I thought the training dummy was esmy. When you encounter sly for the first time he talks about how esmy was poorly wielding his nail. Or her idk. Then when you dream nail the dummy it says “stronger brothers” so I kinda assumed that meant the dummy was esmy. Kinda thought esmy got disowned or something.
