Brood Feast in Hollow Knight Silksong: How to Collect All Organs

The task “Feast for the Brood” is a quest from the “Hunting” section. To complete this you will need to collect the giblets of certain enemies using specific tools. That is, we must arrange a whole feast for monsters. The rest of the guide provides a detailed walkthrough of the side quest “Brood Feast” inHollow Knight: Silksong—where to get the organs you need and how to find the tools needed for harvesting. 

Where to find the quest “Feast for the Brood”

The presented task can be obtained from the Huntress, who sits in the “Rotten Drains” location. There are two ways to get there:

The first lies through “Memorium”, and the second through “Zhelchnovodye”. The easiest way to get there is through the Citadel through a secret passage, which can only be reached using the Grasping Grip and Double Jump. 

We go to the very right side of the “Memorium” location. But to get there, you must first run to the outer room with the lamps and there climb into the hatch hidden above, usingdouble jumpand a tenacious grip on the wall. 

As a result, we will find ourselves in a narrow ventilation shaft. 

Let's go out onto the balcony, where we jump down and run all the way to the right. By the way, Yubilana will be attacked at this same place if you have not yet completed the quest The Lost Merchant. Having reached the very end, we jump onto the wall and get to the hidden passage, where we need to break the stone barrier. 

Through this tunnel we will get to the “Rotten Drains”. Now all that remains is to go down to the lower level, where the transition to the “Bile Waters” is located. 

At the bottom, right before the descent to the next location, go into the tunnel to the left. In the cave you will find the entrance to a large cocoon, where the Huntress sits, who will ask you to collect food for her brood. 

If you decide to get there in another way, then continue to play through the game until you defeat the boss Groal the Great in the “Bilewater” location and open the city of “Bilewater”. From the bench, go left into the mine and go up to the upper passage to the Rotten Drains. You will have to climb a steep wall using a double jump and the Climber's Grab tool.

Once you find yourself in a new location, go up literally one flight of stairs and go into the passage on the left. So we will go to the Huntress’s cocoon. 

Meet a mysterious character from the depths of the Rotten Drains. As part of the task, you will have to kill at least 60 different opponents, which will definitely take a lot of time from users. To speed up the process, you can visit specific places where enemies gather, where there are benches nearby to update the cycle. In total, we have to collect 15 burned, 35 mangled and 10 pierced organs of other monsters. 

How to collect burnt organs

In total, you need to find 15 pieces of burnt organs. You can assemble them by equipping yourself with one of the following tools. 

Flint Plate

This equipment is hidden in the Deep Docks location. 

We move to the local metro station and go down to the lower level. We reach a closed gate that can be opened with a simple key (read where to look for them in a separate guide). Behind them there is a large unexplored area, where, in addition to the necessary tool, we will also find a piece of the coil.

Continue to the right side of the location. We pass through the first shaft with braziers on which you can jump. Let's go out to the second shaft and here we rise one level higher. Directly above us is a room where there is a tool – Flint Plate.

Tinder Lantern

The presented weapons can only be found in Zvonville. But not in the city itself; you can only get to this area through the “Tinder Thicket”. Pay attention to the map, we will start the journey from the “Gloomy Marshes”. 

From the local station “Zvonky Put” we go up to the left chapel. We jump to the very top; there is a hole in the roof, through which it is easiest to get into the “Tinder Thicket”. 

We climb along wooden bridges and a steep wall to the upper passage into the forest location. Having risen, we make our way to the very left part of the map. There, two balls at a time, using dive jumps, we fly into the dead-end section of the Zvonville location.

So we will enter the arena, where we will face the boss – Father of Flame. For killing him, we will get a “Tinder Lantern” as equipment.

Boomdushka

We will find this tool in the “Gloomy Marshes”. To obtain it you will have to spend one craft metal. There is also a hut of a hermit healer who can help us get rid of the parasitic root. 

We go up to the left chapel.

We get almost to the roof and turn into the left passage. We reach the hermit across the bridge. 

There is no need to knock on her house. We climb along the bridges to the very top. 

Look up. There is another passage hidden there; to free it, you need to break the wooden beams using a tenacious grip and, for convenience, the Climber's Grip tool.

There we will find an altar where you can spend one craft metal to create a Bumdushka.

Volt balls

The presented equipment is located in the “Memorium”. 

The easiest way to get there is using the elevator. 

We go out into the mine and immediately to the right side of the location. This passage can be easily identified by the pink electricity. Jump between the energy fields and move on. 

In the next room, take the Materium and look up. There is a secret passage there, just break the obstacle and you will find yourself in a tunnel that will lead us to the Volt Balls.

Before we pick up the equipment, we will be attacked by two flying enemies in cloaks. 

How to collect pierced organs

To get pierced meat, you will have to put it in the red slot and use one of two additional weapons in battle – “Stinger Shard” or “Long Pin”. 

Next we will tell you where to get the necessary tools. 

Sting Fragment

We are looking for this equipment in the “Deep Docks”. It is sold from the Forge's Daughter, which is located near the save bench. 

Getting there is easy through the local metro station. Having arrived at the place, we run to the right side of the location until the first bench sign. At this point we hit the lever and go down, then go all the way to the right again. Pay attention to the map so you don't get lost. There we will meet the Daughter of the Forge, who will create a “Sting Shard” for us for 140 beads and one craft metal. 

Long Pin

The tool is hidden in “Zvonville” and to get it you will need a tenacious grip. 

The equipment lies in a secret room, which can be accessed through the Shell Forest. We go to the Zvonville station and from there we go left – to the next location. You won't be able to go straight up to the secret passage. First we will have to walk along the water to the left until we can climb onto the bridge. 

As a result, we will reach a hidden passage. Break the barrier and you will find a long pin at a dead end. 

How to collect mangled organs

To collect mangled organs, you must use the Winding Wheel, Digger's Drill, Shell Cutter, or Gear Rim. It doesn’t matter what exactly you use to kill monsters, the main thing is to use one of the listed tools.

Winding Wheel and Geared Rim

The presented two tools can be found in one place – buy them for beads and craft metal from the Twelfth Architect in the “Lower Workshops”. 

We go to the location through the elevator. We go out to the right to the mine and hit the lever to create a bridge. On the other side, go down and exit into the room with the altar, where you previously took the ability for Hornet. 

Next you need to climb to the very top through the tunnels. We have to go up to the save bench. 

Having reached the place, look up. There is a ring there that you can grab onto and jump to the right balcony with a lever. 

Inside we will find the Architect, whose assortment includes the equipment we need. 

Digger's Drill

The “Digger's Drill” is also located in the “Lower Workshops”.

You need to move to the Choir Chambers elevator and go down. 

Go to the “Lower Workshops” and go through a small maze of narrow tunnels. The main thing is to strive to go lower. As a result, we will come to a mine where you can simply fall to the very bottom. 

As you go down, you will notice that the passage on the right is blocked by a large block. It's easy to lift. There is a lever very close, literally above your head. Use it to open the passage. 

We go into the vacated passage, then there is only one obstacle to go through – in the corridor there will be spikes and temporary platforms, along which we will get to a dead-end room with the “Digger Drill” tool.

Shell cutter

Another equally useful equipment is located on the “Sands of Karak” map. A must visit is the Coral Tower. 

The shortest path is through the “Undercut Steps”. From the station we go left and go up to the very top until we reach the desired location. There we climb to the top again. Keep in mind that to climb up you will need not only a tenacious grip with a needle, but also a double jump.

At the top we go left to the Coral Tower, past the arena where we fought the Coral Fly (another boss). 

Inside, among the frozen soldiers, we will find the “Shell Cutter.”

Equipped with the necessary equipment, we go hunting. 

Where are the best places for fast farming

In the world of Hollow Knight: Silksong there are many places with a concentration of monsters. To quickly collect burned organs, it is enough to simply clear specific areas and update their population by storing them on the nearest bench. Equip yourself with the necessary equipment and go to one of the following hunting places:

1. “Mohome.” Previously, here we collected capes as part of the quest “Pilgrims’ Robes”.
   

   

2. “Dark Marshes” is the place where the Halfway Home tavern is located.
   

   

3. The Choir Chambers are right above the Song Corner. Here it is enough to wander along the long tunnel and destroy the monsters standing in a row.
   

   

4. “Choral Chambers”. Here you can also go to the western part of the location, not far from the transition to the “Great Gate”.
   

   

You can also go to the “Fairy Mountain” location, but the double jump skill is required there. And besides, the cold will interfere there, so it is better to use the areas described above. 

At the same time, keep in mind that from one killed monster only one organ will drop, with the exception of mangled ones (they drop 3 pieces per corpse). 

Reward for completing “Feast for the Brood”

Having collected the required number of monster organs, we return to the Huntress. She will thank you for the feast and give you the Long Claw as a reward. This equipment belongs to the blue slot and significantly increases the attack range of the Hornet needle. 

This completes the quest “Feast for the Brood” in Hollow Knight: Silksong.
