THK is shown still kneeling, moving their arm to adjust their cloak slightly. Gently, they move to sit down on the floor as the Knight watches, nail still drawn until THK is fully sat. As THK settles, their cloak pooling in their lap, they close their eyes, as if meditating.
The Hollow Knight's eyes remain closed, until they sense the Knight moving into their line of vision, peeking open a single eye. The Knight moves to walk into THK's lap as they watch, fully seating themself in the middle and looking ahead. Their expression is still blank, but there's a sense of contentment.
The Hollow Knight regards this, then closes their eyes again with their head held a bit higher, as the surrounding darkness starts to creep around them. The Knight, in return, looks on, eyes wide open to face the darkness. Finally, the two sit in complete void, the Hollow Knight's cracked mask glowing along with the Knight's open eyes. The Knight has slightly taller horns, and they share this quiet moment in something close to the Abyss as it stirs around them.
