The only ending that the Knight is truly hallow is the first ending. However if the Knight chooses to take the burden of trapping The Radiance Hallownest will never go back to normal. Everyone who was infected will stay infected and the kingdom will remain in ruin. But if you choose to slay the Radiance and trap its existance into the heart of the void then all traces of the Radiance would leave with it. We can see this in the cutscene how the egg and the forgotten cross roads is clear of all traces of infection.
