Rescue the Missing Courier Fast in Hollow Knight: Silksong — Quick Route, Enemies & Bellhart Rewards

The “My Missing Courier” wish in Hollow Knight: Silksong is a short fetch quest that becomes available from Bellhart’s wish board once Bellhart is freed. In short, you track a delivery bug to the upper Mosshome area of Shellwood, free it by defeating a pair of caranids, and return to Bellhart to unlock new shop items.

You pick up the wish from the Bellhart board next to Frey’s shop, but only *after* Bellhart’s weaver spell has been broken. In practice, that means you must clear the “Threadspun Town” quest and defeat Widow first, since those story steps restore Bellhart and let you interact with the wish board.
Frey’s note is short: the missing delivery bug was last seen in Shellwood. Consequently, the quest points you toward Shellwood and, more specifically, a section of Mosshome that you can’t reach from below under normal movement.

To reach the courier quickly, run through Shellwood’s lower chambers and take the lower-left exit. Note that the passage on the same level as the Bellway leads to the Blasted Steps instead; therefore, avoid that route if you want the short path. Then use the Drifter’s Cloak to waft down into the upper Mosshome nook shown in-game.
There you’ll fight two caranids that are harassing the courier. After you clear them, speak to the delivery bug to mark the wish complete, and return to Bellhart to finish the request. Alternatively, if you prefer exploration, you can follow the courier’s traces starting from the passage that links Shellwood’s lower chambers; this route is more scenic and slightly longer, but it still leads to the same upper Mosshome spot.

Completing the wish unlocks a set of items in Bellhart’s shop. Specifically, the shop adds the following purchasable goods:
– Spool Fragment — 270 rosary beads
– Multibinder tool — 880 rosary beads
– Shard bundle — 50 rosary beads
Finally, for context: progressing the main story around “Threadspun Town” gives upgrades that make combat easier (for example, Needle upgrades), and exploring other wishes like “Silver Bells” or “Rite of the Pollip” can be done alongside this quest if you’re cleaning up the Bellhart board.
