How to unlock the Passing of the Age achievement in Hollow Knight - Definitive Guide

The wiki page greatly helps when trying to find him, and is what I personally used.

It's important to know that (as with all ending achievements) you can get this is an existing save, which greatly helps since he only appears after all three Dreamers have been destroyed.

You'll also need this special piece of gear:
to hear his dialogue and thus complete the achievement. (without it equipped, the text just shows as gibberish)

PS: Ending-based achievements (such as this one) won't trigger until after the cutscene finishes.

This is a bit of a strange trophy. After killing all three Dreamers, a mushroom NPC by the name of Mister Mushroom will appear in Fungal Wastes, mumbling away at something or someone. You can't understand him but if you have the Shroom Spore Charm equipped, you can hear him. Note: The Shroom Spore Charm must be equipped or he won't move to the next area (credit to LunarWorld for this info). When you speak to him after prodding him with your nail, he will speak gibberish before vanishing to another area. To get this trophy, you must talk to him in every area you see him in. The areas he appears in are as follows:

- Fungal Wastes
- Kingdom's Edge
- Deepnest
- Howling Cliffs
- Ancient Basin
- Fog Canyon
- King's Pass

After you meet him in King's Pass, he will disappear for good. The trophy won't be yours yet. After you complete the game, an extra cutscene will appear after the credits and when the cutscene starts, the trophy will be yours.

After breaking all 3 seals, Mister Mushroom will appear in the Mushroom Wastes, and later in the other 6 places. After the last conversation with Mushroom in the King's Pass, you need to complete the game to any ending.

1. Mushroom Wastes
2. Kingdom's Edge
3. Deep nest
4. Howling Cliffs
5. Ancient pit
6. Misty Canyon
7. King's Pass

An important clarification: to have a full conversation with the mushroom, you need to wear the “spore mushroom” amulet.

A small addition that might help someone like me:
1. Mushroom Wastes
2. Kingdom's Edge
3. Deep nest
4. Howling Cliffs
5. Ancient pit
6. Misty Canyon
7. King's Pass The first 6 can be completed in any order, but on the 7th the mushroom will only appear if you have visited all of them.

Before the conversation, you must equip the Spore Mushroom amulet, otherwise Mister Mushroom will speak in an unknown language and the quest will not progress.
