Finding a way to Verdania in Hollow Knight: Silksong is kinda confusing. It's definitely one of the most complex regions to reach, especially as I'm pretty sure it's entirely optional. First off, actually visiting it requires you to unlock Act 3, which is a whole elaborate process in itself. You'll also have to complete some additional unrelated steps before that.
If you hadn't clocked it, this all involves the Green Prince—a mysterious grasshopper (he might be a cricket…) you can rescue in Sinner's Road. Visiting Verdania is related to his overall journey. Obviously, this guide will contain some spoilers for the Act 3 main quest (as far as having to progress it to reach Verdania is concerned), so leave now if you're not there yet. Otherwise, here's how to unlock Verdania as an area and help the Green Prince.
