Ho ho! As odd as much of Hallownest can be, there's a whole new level of strangeness about these caves.ĭid you see that dark gate below? It's quite unsettling to be near. I think I-I'll hide here a little longer. It's going to take a whole lot of effort to climb out of this dark pit. W-w-what a horrid warren of angry beasts. Unless you're well prepared, I'd urge you to leave, though if you're feeling strong enough to descend, would you like to buy m-my meagre map? Even with my good head for direction, I-I-I've had enough Vicious little creatures burst out all o-over the place and the passages are a dark, twisting maze. I've tried to chart the dense nest beneath here b-b-but it's proving too dangerous for a bug like me. Unless you're well prepared, I'd urge you to leave, though if you're feeling strong enough to descend, would you like to buy my map? You'd best watch yourself if you're heading up. Awful sharp they are and all over the place. I jabbed myself on one of those crystals back there. Too far for me though and I'm not really one for heights. While I'm about these buildings, I must remember to collect a trinket or two for Iselda.Ĭome to scale the mountain? I've heard tale of a summit way up there. We've both come far to reach this grand place. Perhaps you'd care to purchase a copy of my achievements so far? Isn't this a change from those twisting natural caverns? The rain does cast something of a sadness upon it all but the architecture is simply splendid.Ĭharting such a different space is quite the challenge, though one I've eagerly undertaken. Not too long though! It won't do to have Iselda worrying after me. It's a long trek back to the shop from here. We're pioneers you and I, at least in recent history. Can't you just feel the weight of the kingdom above? It's a heavy thing alright. Who could resist?Īnyway, I'll let you return to your travels. A huge, unending Kingdom to explore right on our doorstep. That's why as soon as I could I moved to Dirtmouth with my wife. Why, when I was first hatched I wandered off immediately, leaving my brothers and sisters and poor mother behind! My name is Cornifer, and I've always loved exploring the world. When you spend a lot of time by yourself, with just your own thoughts, you forget the niceties of conversation. Oh, by the way, I haven't introduced myself have I? Yes, I should apologise for that. I pop back to see her whenever I finish mapping an area. She'll even sell some of my old maps from time to time. She's just now opening our new map shop in Dirtmouth, selling all sorts of useful things to wanderers like yourself. If you've not the head for directions, I suggest purchasing a compass from my wife, Iselda. Hmm? Have you changed your mind about buying a map?Ī map can be a useful thing, but it alone won't show you where you are. "All our food is made of Geo", as they say. I'd give you the map as a gift, but I don't think my wife would be very happy if I did. You don't have enough Geo? Ah, I understand. Exploring without a map, finding your own way through unknown caverns. Not interested, then? Yes, quite understandable. Would you like to buy a copy of my work so far? I'm a cartographer by trade, and I'm working on mapping this area right now. Getting lost and finding your way again is a pleasure like no other. Come down to explore these beautiful old ruins? Don't mind me. Once all maps are bought or once all his maps are available in the Dirtmouth shop, he can be found in the map shop, sleeping in a loft bed. Upon listening to him within Ancient Basin after buying a map for that area, he states that he doesn't want to worry his wife, Iselda, and should head back up to the shop soon after a short rest. The only location where he does not hum is in Deepnest, where he is visibly afraid for his life and does not want to give his location away to the beasts. Scattered papers on the ground lead to his location and his humming can be heard from a few rooms across. Her shop is unlocked when Cornifer has been listened to or when the False Knight has been defeated or skipped by leaving the battle.Ĭornifer can be found in every zone he sells a map for. In-game eventsĬornifer is first encountered in the bottom of the Forgotten Crossroads where he sells Maps and advises the Knight to visit his wife Iselda's shop up in Dirtmouth. He later moved to Dirtmouth with Iselda as soon as he could. When Cornifer was first hatched, he wandered off right away, leaving his siblings and his mother behind.
