![]() ![]() The chorus, or the part where the track progresses at its loudest and fastest point, can be heard starting from the 1:21 timestamp of the video. The major leitmotif is there, but this song also justifies the overall upbeat nature of itself since Zote thinks so high of himself that his boss theme lacks the persisting sad, gloomy and depressing melody of "The Hollow Knight" theme. Ironically, this is the leitmotif of Grey Prince Zote, the game's Lethal Joke Character of a boss who has delusions of grandeur, thinking that he is a Knight in Shining Armor (which Bretta also believes). "Truth, Beauty and Hatred" is by far the most triumphant rendition, evoking the feeling of knights marching to war with drums, violins and trumpets.It is as if this is one of the tracks that you can hear in a church ceremony. The chanting is clearer and more prominent this time, with less of the imposing vibe of the original, symbolizing the literal purity or glory of the Pure Vessel. "Pure Vessel", the theme for The Hollow Knight in their prime, is a choral arrangement of "Sealed Vessel".The rapidly ascending and descending notes beginning at 1:00 are taken from "White Palace." When the boss is fighting the infection by stabbing itself, the music shifts to a lonely orchestral dirge to accompany this scene heard at the 2:15 mark (this sad version of the theme is also used during the Path of Pain and Birthplace sequences), followed by the choir getting louder (starting from the 3:28) to represent the climax of the fight, and finally becomes calm and slow again (around 4:38) when the battle ends, just before the screen fades to black and the ending cutscene plays. The Dark Reprise of the main leitmotif is heard during the second half of the fight, when it begins Fighting from the Inside. It starts out imposing and grand after a prolonged silence, which is perfect for a corrupted final boss. "Sealed Vessel" is the theme for The Hollow Knight when you meet it inside the Black Egg Temple."Broken Vessel" also has faster beats than the original leitmotif, which alludes to the character being aggressive in its boss fight. Its own theme is more of a thriller, with plenty of loud accompanying instruments to symbolize the character losing to the infection. "Broken Vessel" encapsulates the titular Broken Vessel being similar to the Hollow Knight and the Knight via the similar musical riff, this time broken or distorted. ![]() It's the first thing that you'll hear when you start the game, and expect to hear variations of this tune a lot somewhere like a Recurring Riff, notably in Boss Remixes such as the following:
