The Vessels had to under go a trial in order to prove they were strong enough to control the Raidiance. The first test is climbing out of the abyss which the Hallow knight was the first to do. Afterwards the vessel is put through more tests such as the white palace having traps and saws everywhere. And the final test a vessel must pass is the path of pain. (That is why after you complete the path of pain you get the cut scene of the Pale King and the Hallow knight sharing a moment, because it just passed all the tests)  The Vessels were created around the same time but none of them passed the test except for the Hallow Knight and our Knight. But the King was too blinded by the success of one that he didnt know there was another (or many others) who made the climb out of the abyss.
