Whispering Root

Whispering Roots are roots filled with Essence found throughout Hallownest. When the player hits a Whispering Root with the Dream Nail, it spawns floating Essence throughout the surrounding area for the player to collect.

After collecting all Essence in the area, the root will grow to a much larger size. Using the Dream Nail on it again will reveal dream dialogue giving vague hints as to the history of that area.

The player may purchase a Whispering Root Pin from Iselda for 150, which reveals the locations of every Whispering Root in the area after that area's Map has been purchased.
