Big Map for Big Bugs
Last daughter.
Seized and stolen.
Chance escape.
Long fall.
Welcome to Big Map for Big Bugs!
From Hallownest to Pharloom and well beyond, this speculative fan map fills out the Hollow Knight world. Heavily derived from existing Hollow Knight lore, this map expands the story of Hollow Knight: Silksong. Hornet's journey has been reimagined as a vast, epic trilogy spanning multiple kingdoms.
This is turbo spoiler heavy for both Hollow Knight and Silksong. But if you are fiending for Hollow Knight lore, here's the hookup.
(Best viewed on desktop but also works on mobile. It's very image-heavy so performance will depend on device and connection.)
More info about this project here. You can also contact me here! I'd love to hear your questions, ideas. If you want to contribute cool fan art or stories to the map, that's very possible and I'm quite open to it. ☺️
I also have a Ko-Fi page. It would mean so much if you contributed. Luckily, I have a day job, so I'm not relying on this for income. Take your time, no rush. <3
Hate all that clicky-clacky-clicking? If you just want to look at the map without all the frills, you can find a full res image here.
(2026.01.31: and if you'd like the (very spoilery) preview of Act 9, a full res image is here.
Or maybe you're here to read some good old-fashioned text? I gotchu, word perv. Below are the three phases of Hornet's journey, starting with Silksong (you can skip that if you've played the game) and her journeys beyond.
Peace, love, and grubs. ✌️
