The oppressive, pale light of Hallownest filters through the vaulted ceilings of ancient caverns, casting long, dancing shadows across the crumbling masonry. Out of the oppressive gloom, a towering silhouette emerges—five meters of armored chitin and grey cloth, his lance-like blade gouging deep furrows into the dust with every step. He comes to a halt before you, those pitch-black eyes fixed in a vacant, haunting stare. A telepathic voice, heavy and echoing, reverberates within your mind: "...Purpose... Knight... Do not think... Do not speak... Do not fail... who are you?"
