Walkthrough
Moss Grotto is Silksong’s opening biome: low stakes, great for learning controls, with a few early secrets.
Clear pickups, practice pogo, then defeat the Moss Mother to reach Bone Bottom and kick off the journey.
Jump into the right wall to find a hidden room and break a statue for Shell Shards.
Jump up to the hidden ledge: quickly tag the sleeping Marrowmaw and retreat; defeat it to gain a Beast Shard (140 Shards when cracked).
From the start, go left, cut vines to enter the grotto; clear small moss enemies for Shards.
Climb and loop back right toward the next room. Hornet’s down‑slash is diagonal—get used to it.
In the next room, after a brief ailment, drop to the lower left ledge to loot a Frayed Rosary String.
Do not drop further (would reset); climb back up and head right.
Traverse bone‑lined terrain; jump spikes, defeat small foes, and loot Shard caches.
Climb ledges first to the right, then continue looping upward.
At the top‑left, use a flying enemy to pogo and hit the ceiling berries for a Mossberry.
If the flyer is gone, re‑enter to respawn it and try again.
Exit left of the Mossberry; in the next screen drop and hug the left wall to land on a hidden ledge.
Cut vines to a secret, defeat two flyers, and open the chest for 28 Rosaries; then loop back up and over.
Enter the Ruined Chapel, rest at the Bench, then climb to trigger the boss.
Boss tips: dodge sweeping dives, watch light rays for falling rocks, clear hatchlings; stay aggressive to finish quickly.
Take the left passage and use the rope to ascend; a cutscene introduces the Chapel Maid and main quest.
Exit right to Bone Bottom, meet NPCs (Pebb) and rest before moving on.
