Follow this Hollow Knight: Silksong walkthrough to find the Flexible Spines quest in Far Fields, collect 25 Spine Cores from Hokers, and claim your reward from the Seamtress.
Walkthrough
- 1Defeat Lace in Deep Docks.
- 2Continue right to enter the Far Fields.
- 3Navigate through the perilous enemies to the right until you reach a tall, vertical corridor.
- 4Head down this corridor until you reach the lowest path heading east.
- 5Cross the lava using stones to reach the area where the Flexible Spines quest is located.
- 6Drop to the bottom of the large room, avoiding the large enemy that attacks with slices.
- 7Cross to the right, then climb up and make your way back left to a central wooden platform.
- 8Enter the large building on the platform to find the Seamtress.
- 9Accept the Flexible Spines quest, which requires you to bring her Spine Cores.
- 10Return right and exit to the grassy area.
- 11Continue right until you find a Hoker (a floating ball with spikes).
- 12To collect Spine Cores, hit a Hoker. Its spikes will embed in surfaces. Hit the embedded spike to collect a Spine Core.
- 13You need a total of 25 Spine Cores. Exit to the right to respawn the Hoker if needed.
- 14Once you have 25 Spine Cores, return to the Seamtress.
Tips
- The Hokers are the floating enemies that shoot spikes.
- The spikes they shoot can embed in surfaces, and hitting these embedded spikes yields Spine Cores.
- If a spike yields nothing, you have collected all available Spine Cores from that Hoker.
The reward for completing the Flexible Spines quest is the Drifter's Cloak, an item that allows you to float by holding the jump button in the air. This item is particularly useful for utilizing updrafts found throughout the Far Fields area to reach higher platforms.
