Summary
Hornet visits the statue of the Hollow Knight in the City of Tears, every so often, when the rain is thinnest and she can hear herself think over the roar of water.
Once, her father told her he'd given his child the ability to see the world before he'd imprisoned it, through the eyes of the statue. She's not sure if she believed him, but she talks to the Knight anyway. It's not like the rest of Hallownest is any more responsive. She thinks perhaps, behind those eyes of cold stone, her sibling can hear her. That, despite the fire raging through its mind, it manages to think enough to do so.
She knows there was always life in it, after all.

Summary
Like sleep, like death, you will wake again.
Five Pebbles does not often dream. Iterators only need to sleep when they enter maintenance mode, and Pebbles was built for a world without the Ancients. His systems will last for eons without adverse intervention, and he will watch as the world is eaten away and the land rises upwards. Because of this, he does not often need to maintain his systems, and he does not often dream.
But he dreams now, and his dreams carry whispers, half remembered fragments of a time he hasn't lived yet, and sorrow for mistakes he hasn't made. As he slowly starts to recall who he was and will be, the cycle turns, and the wheel flower grows in the empty spaces, where second chances come to bloom.

Summary
It is night, and the clouds are dark . The pearls attached to her mask jangle in the quiet, steady breath of the wind. The rain has stopped, and the world seems to blur into itself, merging metal and flesh and bone.
A ghost is here. It is not like the others.
This one haunts her dreams. She knows what happened to it. Why and where and how it died.
She knows its name.

Summary
Once upon a time, a slugcat walked with their family in the vast expanse, but the rains carried them away. They were hurled down the pipes in the torrent, and they found the remnants of a familiar story. A rotten machine, a broken god, the acid corroding the bottom of the world. The story ended, the same way it always did. The same way it always must.
This is not that world. This is not that story.
Here, it no longer rains.

Summary
He finds it huddled in a crevice, high in the wall of his pumps, where the metal has oxidised and the water has swept rust and Rot alike away.
The Rivulet appears in Drainage with the Mark of Communication already present. It is holding a pearl carrying instructions on how to kill Pebbles and save Moon. Now, Pebbles isn't the friendliest of iterators, but even so, it's hard to imagine who would send a creature like that to his can. Who could possibly hate Pebbles that much?
The obvious answer, of course, is...

Summary
It’s gonna be a long trip.
When I finally found Rocky, stranded in the middle of nowhere, I thought I was going to die. I thought I was going to slowly starve to death. But when I banged on the Blip-A’s hull and suddenly heard Rocky's voice through the radio, it was the best moment of my life.
But, you know…. I am still, actually, going to starve to death. I hate it when reality sets in.
On the long trip to Erid, Rocky and Grace discover music together. But for Grace, the road gets harder and harder.

Summary
Grace is too late rescuing Rocky. When he finds the Blip-A again, Rocky is already gone, so Grace does the only thing he can think of, and he takes Taumeoba-82.5 to Erid himself. If he can't save Rocky, well, he might as well make sure his death (and his crewmates' deaths) weren't in vain.
He's sick, starving, and has no alien native to introduce him, but he's going to save Rocky's planet whatever it takes. After that... he supposes all that's left is for him to die. He's nearly out of food and Yao's gun is still tucked away safely in the Hail Mary's storage.
Fortunately for him, Adrian doesn't plan on letting their mate's best friend die so easily.

Summary
It’s been nearly 27 years since Eva Stratt forced Ryland Grace to board the Hail Mary and sent him off to his death for the greater good of mankind. Meanwhile, Eva and the Project Hail Mary team have been fighting a losing battle against the cooling sun—and their own demons—trying to make sure there were still people to be saved by the time the crew could send a solution home. Right on schedule, the beetles are returning to Earth, hopefully with the answer to saving the world. But Eva has something else to worry about; there’s every possibility Ryland Grace’s last words would be coming home, and all the time in the world couldn’t make her ready to face the consequences of her actions, or what will happen when her colleagues find out what she did to their friend.
It was time to find out if it was worth it for her to sacrifice Grace, and her soul, to save humanity. And to find out if she was ready to face him after all these years…- Language:
