The Knight picks it back up, though they hold it out a little longer for admiration's sake. They don't have much time to just sit and look at it. Didn't. They do now, but still have little reason to do so.
They already had half-agreement going on before he kept going, and they stop mid-nod. They should've been prepared for a query like this eventually.
They aren't.
...They get out a new sheet of paper.
They consider first the False Knight, as that was a recent subject, but it was hardly impressive. A bit sad once they found his siblings mourning him above.
Historically relevant? The Radiance--? The mere memory of their ascension to find her is enough to stir their Siblings in a way that warns them off. Hornet? Their battles with her had been enjoyable in their own frustrating ways. She had fun in her grim duty. They had fun in their stubborn learning of her unique Needle-based tactics. The Mantis Lords had been enjoyable as well, and they could boast of the respect they'd earned through it. The Coliseum had been a mad rush they still hold equal pride and annoyance at being titled Fool. This City itself had wild gauntlets aplenty where the most powerful guards awaited, and this is well before mentioning the Soul Sanctum--perhaps that should be avoided as well.
And these are only a tiny clawful in Hallownest, as they assume Lemm's interest lies.
The Knight has been staring at the paper for a while now.
