Ancient Basin

Location from Hollow Knight by Team Cherry

The deep, dark ground floor of Hallownest — palace ruins above, the Abyss below, and something very old sleeping in between.

Also known as: The Basin, Palace Grounds

What They Know

• The deepest civilized level of Hallownest — below the Royal Waterways, above the Abyss
• Contains remnants of the Pale King's palace infrastructure and a dormant Kingsmould
• The Abyss Door here leads to the Vessel birthplace — requires the King's Brand to open
• The Broken Vessel (an infected sibling of the Knight) is fought here
