Silksong Act 1 to Act 2: A Witty Guide to the Last Judge

So you’ve discovered that Silksong has acts, and Act 1 is less a gentle tutorial and more a very polite hostage situation. The screen announces Act 1: Pharloom, and I immediately think: great, another beautiful kingdom that wants me dead. Hornet’s opening goal is simple on paper — reach the Citadel, learn why she was brought there, and figure out who had the audacity to capture her. In practice, that means mandatory bosses, required abilities, sprawling zones, and one boss runback I can only describe as cardio with spikes. As of 2026, the route is still the same, so here’s how I get from Act 1 to Act 2 without pretending I’m calm.

The short version, for people who like checklists

Why it matters

Restores Bellhart and grants the Needolin

Go to Shellwood’s Bell Beast Station and continue left
Finds the entrance to the Blasted Lands

Leads to the Citadel entrance and The Last Judge
