Where To Find Sprintmaster Swift In Silksong

After getting the Fastest in Pharloom quest in Silksong, Hornet must find Sprintmaster Swift. As mentioned in the quest's description, Sprintmaster Swift is located on the far eastern side of the Far Fields region.

It's important to have the Silk Soar skill to be able to Super Jump some of the obstacles, or Hornet won't be able to reach the Sprintmaster Swift area. It's a skill you get in Act 3, which is around the time you'll get this quest as well.

As an Act 3 quest, Hornet won't be able to access some of the areas from their shortcuts, as they'll be blocked. For that, you need to access the Far Fields region from Hunter's March, which is also blocked and can only be accessed the first time you enter it, from the Marrow.

Once at the Hunter's March, go to where there's a statue, near the infamous bench, and use Silk Soar to find a secret route. Keep heading right to open a shortcut to a hidden Far Fields passage.

After reaching Far Fields, keep heading to the east-most side to find a skull that can be entered. Head inside to find the Sprintmaster Swift location in Silksong.

During the race against the Sprintmaster Swift, you can't use any tools or items that can increase Hornet's speed. It's just a race between her and the master without any additions. However, Hornet can still cheat and attack the Sprintmaster Swift, or even hook in their direction. That will cause the Sprintmaster to stutter for a second, giving you a little advantage.

This race requires smooth movement, so the more silky Hornet is with her moves, the better your chances of winning against Sprintmaster Swift in Silksong.

After each race win, Sprintmaster Swift will reward you with an item. For the first race, you'll get a Rosary Necklace. For the second one, Sprintmaster Swift rewards Hornet with a Beast Shard. Finally, for the last race, you'll get a Mask Shard in Hollow Knight: Silksong.
