It sees the face beneath! Or could it be just another mask?
Truth in Hallownest is always buried deep. How many layers will it pry through?
To change a face; to conceal it fully within another... A powerful protection that is, but one with sad consequence.
The original mind is destroyed, though those of striking will may still retain a sliver of that concealed self.
I see another takes mantle of king? Then grim responsibility that shall bestow.
No bug has ever laid claim to this whole. Even the beasts knew their limits and bound their realm at Nest's edge.
It is the ancient caste that made attempt at such vast rule. Hallownest's ruin reflects well those fared attempts.
Has it witnessed that truth most tragic? The Wyrm's great shame sealed away.
Now this Kingdom's stasis becomes the Wyrm's legacy.
Faces I grant to all who'd request. Not task for I, but aid, gift to a world deserving.
