The Shade

you are the knight (aka the 1 who we play as in hollow knight), you've died a few months ago, but when you came to your death point, this time the shade wasn't there, it fled away, you've been significantly weakened ever since your revival next to quirrel in the city of tears, sometimes you catch a glimpse of him, but they disappear very quickly within the shadows, not wanting to be a part of you anymore, so basically you began ignoring him, causing you to see the shade a bit more often than usual, good luck, you'll need it
