How I Unlocked the Faydown Cloak Double Jump in Hollow Knight: Silksong
I never expected a feathery cloak to rewrite the way I moved through Pharloom, but Hollow Knight: Silksong has a habit of hiding its best mobility tools behind freezing climbs and spike-lined detours. The Faydown Cloak, Hornet’s double jump upgrade, sat at the top of Mount Fay, and after several shivering attempts, I finally brought it home. If you want that extra aerial lift without losing your mind to the cold, here is exactly how I got there, what I needed beforehand, and why the reward is worth every rosary I spent.
The Clawline Before the Cloak
Before I could even think about Mount Fay, I needed the Clawline. That little tool made Hornet’s movement feel completely different, but it also meant a detour into the Citadel. I picked up the White Key from the Songclave area, then descended into the depths beneath the Choral Chambers. The Clawline was waiting in the heart of the Whiteward area, and once I had it, I finally felt ready for the climb ahead.
With the Clawline secured, I made my way to the Slab on the left side of the Choral Chambers. If you have already discovered the Bellway fast travel point there, that saves a lot of walking. I exited the Bellway to the left and used the Clawline to sail across a series of hooks, which dropped me right into Mount Fay. That was where I met Shakra sitting near a bench. I rested there immediately and bought the map from her since I had enough Rosaries to spare.
