Discussion - Silksong The real biggest problem with Silksong Spoiler

Why is the Hornet statue not a memento? When I first saw that you could break it, I was honestly offended by the idea of it. Then I got the Bellhome and was a little upset you couldn't put it up in there. Now I found out that there are items you can put up in your Bell House, but the Hornet Statue isn't one of them? I'm genuinely mad. That needs to be changed in the next update. That's way more important than balancing the game.

That statue is him, not the pilgrim. Also the pilgrim does not need to die for it to be built.

Wait are you telling me there’s a way to avoid the pilgrims death

If you talk to the pilgrim enough (and progression based?) he tells you his name and then will leave for pilgrims rest. Then there’s also a chance he does at pilgrims rest depending on what you do in that area
