Last night I dreamt that I time-traveled to the year 2389 and befriended a girl there. I asked her some questions. Here's what I remember.

Q: Will there be any big wars in the early 21st century? A: Yes. You're not very far from it. It'll be short, though.

Q: I thought there would be flying cars, hoverboards, holoscreens, stuff like that. Why isn't the technology much different from my time? A: ¯\_(:/)_/¯

Q: What happened to the Mars colonization project? A: Some people thought to be from Mars walked up with a note saying "Thank you" and nothing else. The passive-aggressiveness scared everyone away.

Q: Do you have memes? A: (She showed me some videos on YouTube. One of them was Other Friends from Steven Universe mashed up with a pop song I did not recognize. They were pretty funny. I noticed that one of them were uploaded in 2030.)

Q: What happened to the moon? Shouldn't it be higher up in the sky? A: It got destroyed so we made a new one. It comes down for maintenance.

I dreamt there was new Hollow Knight merch out - can't remember what - and with it came a sort of children's storybook simply titled 'Hornet' that acted as a prelude to Silksong. (Think of one of those Roald Dahl books with mostly text and little illustrations here and there.)

In it:

  • Hallownest and Pharloom were both confirmed to be in Australia, like so (yes they were really far apart):
  • Real life animals made an appearance - gigantic in size compared to Hornet, obviously - and I quote: "Hornet thought foxes were cool. The way their jaws moved fascinated her."
  • Turns out Lurien raised Hornet for some time. (I blame this on me reading A Watcher's Duty before bed.)
  • Lurien was confirmed to be a butterfly.
  • Turns out Hornet was wearing a mask/helmet and looked like this underneath:
  • Hallownest actually had dye for all sorts of colors but everyone just insisted on wearing dark blue. Hornet disapproved of this.
  • Hornet was riding a spider - as in, an IRL spider - like so:
