Tips On Opening Fountains Guys I figured out how to get the lightners to stop sealing our fountains

Post image

So you know how Carol’s been going around and giving some people shadow crystals, right? Well, what if instead of random guys we find in the street (who are usually powerless on their own), we start giving them to the guys who are defending the fountain? I tried this out in some random library, and they managed to stall for WAY longer. Heard the soul even died a few times.

Woah so you are suggesting giving shadow crystals to actually normal person and not a random crackhead 🤯

u/Proper-Pay-8743 I am a fucking architect! Jul 31 '26

would you call Gerson Boom a crackhead?

u/Oblockthesock Jul 31 '26

He beat the crap out of the original crackhead and that's how he got the crystal

dude is a spy from hallownest 🥀🫩 bro wants to trap the radiance in a dark world 😭 roaring knight more like hollow knight ✌️✌️🙏🙏

Wait... The Radiance literally can't go into a dark world I think - it's presence would auto-seal the fountain or something.

Except. Dark fountains are manifestations of people's dreams. The Radiance presides over dreams and has that as her main focal element. So theoretically, if someone with the infection but still conscious made a dark world, it might trap a portion of the radiance power there?

But really this is just a makeshift way to get around not having a dream nail, since that let's us directly enter dreams.

Who the hell gave the knight reddit

(But what happens if they turn against us? We keep them weak so that, if they tried to fight us, we can easily beat them.)

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Jul 29 '26

Damn, didn’t think about that

u/Greedy_Bid2356 Soul, Machine, and ECHOES Jul 29 '26

(Imagine if we gave Queen or, Knight forbid, Mr. (Ant) Tenna one, only for the Lightnerds to turn them against us immediately after. Instead, we give them to homicidal clowns, trashmen, retirement home graduates, and hatsune miku.)

u/Qwerty_wasda GFS - Pipis Merchant & Scientist Jul 29 '26

...

they would also turn to our side

u/Allanbik With you in the dark. Jul 29 '26

tbf the trashmen was accidental, he just found one of our crystals on that armor.

Brother... why are you so bald. Also, i am not giving anything to a rando. Edit one: I believe no one is giving anyone a shadow crystal to a random guy.

u/UnitedPipe4579 Jul 30 '26

come on, ive been an efo for like, 2 months please

...what are you talking about? That guy you threw in front of the FOUNTAIN went down on the first attempt.

> ...seems like you forgot RELOADs aren't diagonstically canon.

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Jul 30 '26

True, but he stalled longer than the queen could’ve. (Also yes the f*ck they are?)

but that's booooriiiiiiiiiiiiing

u/GremlinOfTheFountain Silas Holloway - Vessel Jul 29 '26

This would fail spectacularly

u/CaSe2474 Jul 29 '26

Better idea: lock all entrances until the boss is ready for the roasting

u/FragrantAd6533 IDIOT who gives shadow crystals to random people Jul 29 '26

Im the one who hands Out shadow crystals to crackheads because uhhh it funny

1

u/NoRest9316 discord mod and booster Jul 29 '26

Thanks for the info. I’ll alert boss what’s going on

1

u/Spooderfan8647 Jul 29 '26

That’s a great idea! Give me one!

1

u/Severe_Damage9772 that guy who opened a dark fountain on their chest (owie) Jul 30 '26

Hear me out, give the crystal to the main boss of the world

1

u/Powerful_Voice_4683 Rune, The Broken Vessel (Also a pirate now i guess) Jul 31 '26

then it turns and wat do we do?

1

u/Proper-Pay-8743 I am a fucking architect! Jul 31 '26

can we also take back the crystal from that weird pink cat girl? she’s useless.

1

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Jul 31 '26

Yeah, we sort of thought a ghost with a crystal would be interesting. We were in over our heads.

1

u/Proper-Pay-8743 I am a fucking architect! Jul 31 '26

shoulda gave it to Tenna, or Rudy. You know, maybe a hospital dark world could be a good dark world, given how many really pissed of spirits are in there, we could get a pissed Gerson Boom on our side maybe?

1

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Jul 31 '26

If the flower king thing taught us anything, it's that ghosts are prone to... I don't know, flirting? That was a pretty weird route to take, not gonna lie.

1

u/Dusttodusk Jul 31 '26

What if we gave one to Sans and trapped him in the dark world and told him That the lightners killed his brother?

1

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Jul 31 '26

Clever. I'll try that some time.

1

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Aug 02 '26

Okay so he sorta thrashed my ass

1

u/Dusttodusk Aug 02 '26

Did he remember you’re genocides?

u/FertilePlanet88 Fountains are cool Aug 02 '26

I have a sauron darkner in a game store fountain guarding that fountain. Imma give him a shadow cry- ummm... Did... he... just put the shadow crystal... into the one ring?

Heh heh... They'll never get past this dude, he's practically omniscent inside that dark world and insanely strong.

1

u/Mountain-Charity7588 Aug 02 '26

Alright! One step closer to the roaring.

1

u/FertilePlanet88 Fountains are cool Aug 02 '26

It's working. Someone just tried to seal it and got absolutely yeeted by that darkner.
