Similar to Hollow Knight, players can acquire Relics, which they can give to the Relic Seeker Scrounge in exchange for Rosaries. There are a total of 15 Relics scattered across the large areas in Silksong, and some of them require abilities that unlock in the latter half.
Collecting these relics is not tied to any trophy or the 100% completion, nor is there any reward for collecting all of them aside from getting Rosaries per Relic retrieved. Here is the location of all the Relics in Hollow Knight: Silksong.

1 |
Far Fields |
For this Relic, you will need the Drifter’s Cloak ability. To get this, complete the Flexile Spines Quest in Far Fields, where you have to hit the Hokers to make them shoot out spikes in different directions. Simply go to the spikes on the ground and hit them to get the Spine Cores. With the Cloak acquired, head to the area to the right of the Seamstress’s room. Here, you will spot an air stream that allows you to float and ascend all the way to reach this Relic. |

2 |
Greymoor |
To the right of the Halfway Home, near the spot where you emerge for the first time upon reaching Greymoor, is a secret room. Instead of going up the ramp that leads to the room on the left, swim below it to reveal a path to the Relic. |
|
|
3 |
Wisp Thicket |
This Relic is located inside Wisp Thicket, which is accessible through Greymoor after you acquire the double jump ability. From the Halfway Home bench, head left to the first tower, climb up, take the right passage leading to the second tower, and climb up again. There will be a passage on the left now, which leads outside to an area with a few Craw enemies, and to the top left of the room is a hidden path leading to Wisp Thicket. From the bench here, head right, and you will come to a tower-like room, and at the top of this room, with the flame braziers, you will find the Bone Scroll. |

Underworks |
Once you drop from the lift in Grand Gate, head right to come to the Underworks areas. After you reach the tower-like room, start making your way up, and the first passage that leads left is where you must go. There will be a breakable wall here that you must break to reach the Relic at the end of the path. |

1 |
Bone Bottom |
You can find this fairly early on in the game in Mosshome. Head left of The Marrow Bellway Station, and to the top left of the room is a place where you can head outside and find the Relic next to a corpse. |
|
|
2 |
Whiteward |
After acquiring the White Key, which gives access to Whiteward, go down the elevator and progress through the area, and you will soon find this Relic on top of a movable trolley. |
|
|
3 |
Whiteward |
After reaching the secret third act in the game, you must progress through the main objectives until you make your way to the Abyss. Here, you will acquire the Silk Soar ability, which you need for the Relic. Go to Whiteward and head through the right passage in the middle of the area. Drop down to the room where the map is and Silk Soar up to find a secret passage leading to the Relic. |

Songclave |
This can be purchased from Jubilana for 210 Rosaries after completing the Lost Merchant (Wish). |
|
|
Rune Harp (110 Rosaries) |

|
1 |
Weavenest Atla |
For this Relic, players must first reach Weavenest Atla. This area is to the right of Moss Grotto, and you might have seen the entrance at the start of the game, but the door would be locked at that time. After acquiring the Needolin ability, which you can get once Widow has been defeated, make your way back to the Needolin door and open it. Inside you can head down and wall jump all the way up, but take the right passage before you reach the top. This leads to a room with a Mask Shard, before which you can get the first Rune Harp. |
|
|
2 |
Far Fields |
With the Needolin ability, head to the far right of Far Fields, way past the Chapel of the Beast, to find a Needolin Door. This door leads to Weavenest Cindril, where you can find the Silkspeed Anklets by sprinting to the other corner. To get the Rune Harp, you will need to equip the Silkspeed Anklets and Flea Brew. Use the Brew and sprint past the pressure plates to make a hidden path at the end appear, which leads to the Relic. |
|
|
3 |
High Halls |
During the third act, progress through the main objective until you reach Songclave. After resting at the bench, make your way to High Halls to the location where you completed the Arena before acquiring the Conductor’s Melody. You will be unable to access the First Shrine Ventrica Station, so it is best to sprint to High Halls. When you reach the arena room, you will find a Choir Clapper and Minister both consumed by the Void, meaning that they are tanky and also hit for more damage. Deal with them, go to the Conductor to find the final Rune Harp. |
|
|
Weaver Effigy (240 Rosaries) |
|||
|
1 |
Bone Bottom |
Head through the top left passage inside Mosshome and jump or float down. Stick to the left wall, and soon you will come across a room that you can barely reach and climb onto. Here you can find the first Weaver Effigy. This is also the same path that leads to the Wanderer Crest. |
|
|
2 |
Shellwood |
To acquire this Relic, start by completing the Rite of Rebirth quest, where you have to bring the Twisted Bud to Greyroot, after which you will find yourself in the Chapel of the Witch with a new Crest equipped. Once you wake up, head right to find a breakable wall behind which leads a path to the Relic. If you have already cured yourself of the parasite, then you do not need to worry, as the path will be open to revisit, since you have to go through the area for the first time. |
|
|
3 |
The Slab |
First, you need to reach the Slab, either through the path left of Citadel Spa or by being captured by the cage enemies in different locations. Once you activate the Bellway Station, you can head back out to the tower-like room and head all the way down. There should be a breakable wall on the right, which leads to the last Weaver Effigy. |

Arcane Egg (250 Rosaries) |

|
1 |
The Abyss |
After arriving at the Abyss in Act 3, players can make their way inside a small room with a couple of spike sections. This is towards the left side of the area, where you have to drop to head to the bench on the right. At the end of the room, you will find the Egg lying on top of a pedestal. An easier way to locate this room would be to grab the map, which is right above the first bench you find after the Diving Bell. |
