How To Get Out Of Far Fields in Hollow Knight: Silksong—Flexile Spines Wish Guide

by

Among the early-game locales in Hollow Knight: Silksong lies Far Fields, characterized by a chilling, ghostly ambiance that’s initially intriguing. However, you might find yourself growing tired of it eventually since you’re trapped at its lowest depths, with no easy access to the surface. Cleverly, Team Cherry has concealed the means of escape.

You’ve likely made your way through most of Bone Bottom, The Marrow, and Deep Docks, but Hunter’s March and its red flowers might have given you a bit more trouble. One of Hollow Knight: Silksong’s first real puzzles presents itself once you reach the bottom of Far Fields.

It’s evident that there are numerous air vents for ascending, yet Hornet lacks a mechanism to interact with these vents. Should you find it challenging to leave the Far Fields, we’re here to guide your escape.

Can’t Get Out Of Far Fields in Hollow Knight: Silksong, Explained


To first exit Far Fields, you need to ascend to the summit of the large room located in the southeast part of the map. After reaching there, visit the rest area, converse with the Seamstress to initiate the Flexile Spines Hunt, and ultimately obtain the Drifter’s Cloak item.

One reason for creating this guide was our own experience of frequently feeling baffled by the same problem. Yet, upon understanding the situation better, it’s surprisingly straightforward.

Follow these instructions in Silksong:

  1. In the center of the main giant room (use the first screenshot above as a reference point) are several large wooden ledges held up by giant chains.
  2. You need to reach our “The beginning point” screenshot location to reach it.
  3. Jump up the ledges until you reach the tent.
  4. Enter.
  5. Speak to Seamstress.
  6. Initiate Flexile Spines.
  7. Complete the quest.
  8. You receive the Drifter’s Cloak as a reward—this gets you out of Far Fields.

So far in Silksong, you’ve probably completed numerous quests. However, there’s a mandatory one that you need to advance further. In typical Metroidvania fashion, it’s not immediately obvious where to find this task or what needs to be done, making it a bit challenging!

How To Complete Flexile Spines Hunt in Hollow Knight: Silksong



To finish this hunt, you’ll need to pursue a particular foe that fires thorny projectiles at you. Your goal is to eliminate these thorns, gather 25 of them, and then return them to the Seamstress for further use.

No talking, let’s get you straight into the quest with our complete walkthrough:

  1. Once you leave the tent, head straight right and go back through the connected areas to the east.
  2. Continue until you find a spine enemy—shown in the second screenshot above.
  3. Hit them once so that they fire several spines in the direction they’re pointing.
  4. You need to quickly head to the spines and hit them so that it drops the collectible.
  5. Each enemy should net you 3-5 spines per enemy—depending on how quick and resourceful you are.
  6. Repeat this process until you have 25 spines.
  7. When you do, return to Seamstress and hand them in.
  8. She rewards you with the Drifter’s Cloak in return.

With the Drifter’s Cloak, you can catch wind gusts to soar higher. To do this, simply jump and immediately press the jump key again.
