 how far are you I want to watch but I want to avoid spoilers I would say I'm decently far in I don't know if I'm close to the end probably not but I'm a decent chunk in I would say in the middle yeah yeah I would think so sorry there's somebody working on something outside so you're gonna hear a lot of knocking so I need to get that head probably gonna go back to Green Path because I just so happen to explore up here but yeah we defeated one of the dreamers and then now there's like a infection going on in crossroads apparently something about a seal that we're breaking because I think that's the helmet of the Hollow Knight this is theory time I'm just throwing things out there that Hollow Knight because because the Hollow Knight we saw the statue in the City of Tears and I the Hollow Knight that's where the Hollow Knight is resting or at least his dead body or whatever we're unlocking it so we can defeat him to stop the infection that's my theory anyway could be totally off base that's my theory how much of that is right I don't know but uh yeah that's what I'm thinking also we got a this cool thing this is still my favorite area in the game I think I just like lush green forests and stuff and I love these cute little buggers and I like the music I just love everything about this area how many times have I beaten the game this is my first play for blind and not to brag but I beat the Mantis Lord's first try yeah and from hence forth I asked to be referred to as Joe bug the respected Stone Sanctuary hmm hello oh my child can you still see please don't hurt me can't sleep with your eyes open little one can't dream if you're still breathing little one precious children you speak such low some things as you sleep your claws scratch and scrape precious children a monster has come for us in the dark you sing for me all right out oh this is unsettling okay down there is a safe spot it seems those ghosts are really going nuts now one by one their eyes closed at last I felt it a warm stillness falling over us I'm sorry I was frightened of you they were always protecting us even when we couldn't see you take us there please a place where light cannot haunt us place where dreams please so what I'm getting from these reoccurring things is that light is not good apparently dark is the much preferred thing for these bugs either because they rotten the light or I don't know though those growth growths have something to do with light because it was that one crazy priest or shaman or whatever that was into the light and see how that worked out for him well we kind of caused that to happen to him but still so down there is the fog canyon which I still have not mapped in before the chats like what do you dream of dear dear I really must hold it together must appear calm but this creature is just divine oh does she want to eat me like everybody else do you wear a lot of charms at once it's a lot of fun isn't it mixing and matching them to get the perfect combination I don't know whether you've noticed but some charms seem to like each other yes when charms like each other they shine even brighter and sing even more sweetly even more reason to try all sorts of fun and surprising combinations of charms you show me whenever you have a new favorite right it's a bit of a sin to wear too many charms at once isn't it sometimes less is more yes you should try to cram on more charms than you can handle the effect could be positively overwhelming my dapper gadfly would care to know how charms are made I don't often tell my customers what with the truth being a little morbid but you're a sharp one so you may have guessed already few ways a charm appear but mainly from final wish a dying bug's potent desire crystallize into these gorgeous powerful trinkets now don't go getting too sad there are exceptions of course and really it's quite beautiful makes them all the more precious just think of all the little bug souls that went into creating your collection it's like a crowd of strangers in your pouch or purse or whatever wherever it is you keep them it's rare enough that someone enters my store but even rarer to meet one so striking are you flatter me those impressive horns that fierce weapon that air of majesty oh it's enough to make me swoon am I making a crap guide to DMing no even though I confirmed that I would do it in the q&a uh because you asked I'm not gonna do it anymore I've decided uh that I've cancelled all three additional crap guide videos we will now be doing a new series called uh Joseph eats a sandwich and uh it will just be me making and eating various different types of sandwiches with different toppings and I'm not gonna do any commentary about how I'm making the sandwich or the philosophy behind it I'm just it's just gonna be me making a sandwich that's it like so so people are gonna be like what I wonder what meat is using what what what kind of veggies and I won't say anything it'll be one of the most frustrating things to ever watch I call it a let's cook or a let's make I guess because you don't really cook a sandwich and when you put when you see me put jam on it like make a jam sandwich you can't tell what jam it is because most of the jams colors look the same and I won't I won't say anything can you submit sandwich ideas yeah but I'll ignore them it'll be the most frustrating video series of all time large and well protected but slow and docile the bugs of hollowness used to force these creatures to carry around their carts and machines aw hollowness has a has a dirty history doesn't it seems not exactly the most prosperous like holy place or noble place sandwich so moist and sandwich I'm coming for you sandwich sandwich sandwich sandwich will the sandwich videos be recorded on a vertical phone camera yes not just any vertical phone a vertical flip phone camera all right now I can lease by the map oh no he is here okay sweet hello come to scale the mountain I've heard of the summit way up there too far for me though and I'm not really one for heights yes finally hello okay mini boss crystal guardian he's got lasers hello oh okay goodbye new charm shopkeepers key small brass key made in the likeness of a shopkeeper oh that looks like sly okay sweet I'm gonna give that to sly then ah quirrel ah quite a view no I'm not surprised you survive the trek through these shimmering caverns there's an air of strength about you I suspect it would be quite intimidating if not for your small stature did it sadden you to see those miners below still laboring at their endless task even overcome strong purpose has been imprinted upon their husks the crystal ore is said to contain a sort of energy not as powerful as the soul of the city dwellers harnessed but far less lethal strange to know such an ancient fact I wonder from where my knowledge comes at this high vantage I can just make it out the light from the sad little town I doubt its residents could even comprehend the scale of the world that surrounds them so small it seems I'm very interested in quirrel's story seems to be some kind of like noble knight of sorts somebody mentioned that he had a comic of his his own I'll have to look at that after I beat the game loss crystal heart hold left trigger while on the ground are clinging to a wall to concentrate the force release the button to blast forward and fly through the air that's what I need oh yeah whoo haha nice woo oh my gosh oh my gosh it just keeps going it's super dash time and god all these power ups make me feel so powerful ah good mush all right new power time how many how many huh oh nice oh god i need to keep going all right sweet oh that's gonna slam right into the crystal oh no it's not

oh this is new what happened that sign's new where the elderbug go huh oh oh this is the thing that I did ah look there something strange and sinister has suddenly appeared oh it fills me with dread I think it best I try to ignore it why must these grotesque strangers intrude on our piss peaceful little home sometimes it feels like the whole world is conspiring to make me uncomfortable aww oh it's it's these things a new land different from the last how many more will we see the roads between our dark and long but the master's light will always guide us I love accordions ah oh she's doing the anime oh did you call us you called us and we came we came you don't look scared why did you call us ah it doesn't matter don't tell me we came and I smell something something deep below us I want it I want it that smell you're hiding something very nice from me aren't you shouldn't hide something so nice show me show me put it on quick I have something I don't know I'm here for the circus oh oh he's playing a little grub you called speak to master when flame burns bright inside one's mind can you heed the call across lands in time I wonder what she says shadow and fire will dance together so prettily I think hello there oh I've seen this guy before this person so it was you who called us well met my friend well met I am grim master of this troop the lantern has been lit and your summons heated a fine stage you choose this kingdom followed by warm and root perfect earth upon which our ritual shall take place and you my friend your own part is far from over as the lantern flared your role was cast are compact written in sacred fire eager we are to see your comments but first some illumination is required grim child across these lands my kin now spread harvesting that essence particularly to my breed the flame and dream seek my kin claim their flame and return it to me together marvels shall be achieved but don't fret small one for this task you won't travel alone my child shall guide you to the flame and gather within itself that burning essence like you the child plays key role in its task only with it by your side with the flame and my kin reveal themselves to you all right uh I have something for you what do you have there why that's the key to my storeroom I thought I'd lost it for good did you find it in those old minds perhaps very curious I have no idea how it ended up in such a remote place very honest of you to return it to me yes very kind and now that I can open my old storeroom up I can sell you some of the rare stock that's been gathering dust in there these items might be little time worn but they still retain their full market value very precious stuff take a look what a dream of I'm glad I put down my weapon this quiet life with corny makes aw corny makes me a lot happier it would be nice to stretch my legs again though sometimes soon she was a warrior once whoa it's pretty cool she looks at all right here we go sweet out okay oh good bench what is this oh hello you look very similar to the other guy shale that's uh the master of the guy who taught us a visitor why have you crept in here little grub perhaps like me you'll have a taste for discovering new things I am shale and in a previous life I was a nail master yes the only thing that drove me was becoming a stronger and honing my skills with the nail I imagine it was my one calling in life but that feeling faded over time now I seek a new calling something that speaks to my soul and compels me forward that is why I spend my time here secluded trying to master the art of creation painting sculpting these things bring a different kind of pleasure hmm you don't seem very moved by what I've said was it shale or the nail master you were looking for did you come to learn a nail art I'll teach you if you insist yeah sure nice wheel coming out great slash release the button without holding up or down to perform the great slash so my word does it move you the wheeling of a nail the wheeling of a brush these things are not so different we cut into the world so that we can peer deeper inside for now though I have nothing more to teach you the path forward only you can see it good luck my brother oral what drove you to hide away deep down in the very edge of that ash swept grave was it pride or fear or shame perhaps you should lay down your nail if it haunts you so find a new calling that eases your soul hmm that was always mato's favorite mato that was the guy who must have made him ecstatic to have a pupil like you he always wanted to pass down what he learned from to a new generation it was not the most skilled pupil himself but his enthusiasm and his kindness set him apart I'm glad he achieves what he desired for so long to be a teacher yeah yeah okay so then yeah I see I have a spare brushes and plenty of paint once you tire of that nail feel free to join me in my art yeah sure thing yeah dude sweet oh hello odd so I haven't seen you in a while I'm sure you have everything under control man look you you tell him so you get him these spiders are just shaking in their boots there you go buddy hey what are you doing you clumsy
