What it does

The mod draws on the remnants of ancient civilizations from the Hollow Knight series, including Hallownest and Pharloom. Players gather soul, charge a spell system with two spells, and cast them once the required charge is met. Soul is gained through several means, such as consuming a soul bottle, and vigor charge heals up to three hearts through the Z key.

Progress runs through a forging mechanic. Players craft an old nail or needle, upgrade it into a stronger nail, then combine it with a weapon upgrade slurry specific to each weapon metal. The mod adds two new weapon types, three new ores, a custom stone variant and an enchantment infusing mechanic. Pale ore is found in a structure called the pale egg, deep in an underground dig site. Two custom biomes and a few custom structures are added, along with a new villager type.

Files are published for NeoForge only, for Minecraft 1.21.1, and the environment is client and server, so the server and every player need the mod. The code is closed: the mod is released under All rights reserved. Its first public release was on 2026-07-06, and the latest alpha file, 0.1.3-pre-alpha, followed on 2026-07-22.
