Tsuki

The Moth Tribe

---

Tsuki was one of many moths spawned by the light of the Radiance to be a part of the Moth Tribe. Before the arrival of the Pale King, his life was somewhat peaceful, content with his time in the immortal realm. However this changed when the Pale wyrm had showed up, all moths followed his lead and eventually forgot about their creator.. except for Tsuki. He was the only one who was able to resist the Pale Light. One by one, everyone he had ever known had forgotten about not only the light that spawned them, but him too, in a matter of moments. Now just imagine how that feels. Being instantly forgotten about as if you had never existed, by those who meant the most to you.

Hallownest

---

Some time after the moths' disappearance, the Radiance was next to vanish without a trace, having been contained within the sealed vessel. Tsuki waited, and waited... and waited, for her, or someone else to miraculously return to his home, where he had been on his own for who knows how long.

He eventually used the Dream Nail as a last resort to travel to Hallownest, something he always swore he would never do. By the time he arrived in Hallownest, the infection hadn't spread out across the kingdom so serverely just yet. He travelled there with the intention of finding the Radiance, trying to revive the memories of her that had faded away into almost nothing.

The Infection

---

The Infection. A deadly plague that manifested from the wrath of the Ancient Light, and the reason for the downfall of Hallownest. To all other bugs, the infection is a deadly disease, controlling their minds, enslaving them to the Radiance's will in an attempt to be remembered. However to Tsuki, it is more like a spark of hope, something to show him that she's still there, that his creator had not completely faded away. Despite the effects of the infection, both mentally and physically, Tsuki was able to retain some of his will, he still knew what his intentions were, and he planned to use the infection to his advantage. Eventually the infection began to progress, severely, destroying his body and mind just like every other infected bug in Hallownest. As it worsened, his abilities were strengthened, although he wasn't able to control them as well anymore, accidentally summoning his dream-born orbs & nails, putting an end to bugs that crossed their paths. He began to lose sense of who he was and why he was here, why he wasn't at home, and focused solely on preaching, rather mindlessly, to the bugs of Hallownest about his tribe and creator.
