Have you ever wondered what the hecc the Seal of Binding is? What about that weird Grimm Troupe seal? How about some Silksong lore in general? I want the Silksong! But it keeps evading all my traps, and leaving notes behind teasing me that I didn't catch it, which really makes me upset on the inside but I've been keeping my cool- oh wait, uh.... I mean, I have too! So I decided to try figuring it out!
