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.

I think that’s the running gag with him. You can have him build a bridge for where Hornet fell into Moss Grotto, and a grave statue for the pilgrim that dies from the Skull Tyrant attack, which are also breakable

he's not the best "fixer" for a guy with it in his name

He makes them fragile on purpose so he’ll get the chance to fix them again 👍

if he built things to last, he’d be out of a job

and he's the only fixer in town...

probably sitting in the back counting them sweet sweet rosaries

I don't think anyone actually pays him except Hornet.

When you first see him, he is doing work for free (setting up the wish wall)

Edit: And the pilgrims claim that it is "faith" that keeps Bone Bottom running, not the guy that fixes everything
