Thank you for this compliment.
If this Vessel is half the being they are, then it is worth more than it could express.

Man, I wish I got along half as well with my sibling the way you and Knight do. Our mom would definitely like it better, I know that much.

Ours was not a family that had such luxury to bicker and fight.
They heard it cry and they came.
It would do anything for them.
They are Heart of the Void.
And they are sibling.
It is sure your sibling loved you, though your bond be not so forged as ours.

Well, Shingo loves me in his own way, and when we're older I'm betting we'll get along better.

But Knight has mentioned that there... weren't a lot of happy times growing up. But you can have happier ones here, right?

[instilled]

Yes.
Our Parents made a monstrous decision for the good of all Hallownest.
It was terrible for the Knight.
For the many thousands of our siblings.
It is all this Vessel can do to try to make up for that now.
They deserve every piece of kindness, love, and simplicity that could be offered to them.
For your part in giving them that, you are thanked, and this Vessel will find a way to do the same.
