One more nod for the road, and they're off to do as they said.
And they do, with few things to pull them off-track between Lemm's shop and the Pleasure House. (They do not stop to look at the Hollow Knight's memorial. Their sibling is no longer in the Black Vault and they know they still live. There's no need.)
They visit the Springs--that is, spa--first.
Millibelle's set up something like a toll desk. It looks authentic, clearly built from whatever she found in her surroundings. If she was someone who didn't steal and backstab, they would respect its artful construction.
She sees the Knight trotting by and cowers back, stammering excuses; they slam the flat of their blade on the edge of the desk, and it crunches. She scurries away.
(No Siblings want to show up and explore. This place has water that glows, and that outweighs the curiosity they have, no matter how the Knight assures it's more than safe.)

They crash into the spa and relax enough their legs come up off the bottom. Their head tilts, and they float on their back, watching the ceiling. There, they discover a few risqué murals up there they've never had a chance to stop and see. Once again, Lemm's sudden protectiveness bubbles up amusement.
