What You'll Learn
Millibelle the Banker is a scam artist
When players first encounter Millibelle, she is found in the left room at the base of the Fog Canyon. She tells the Knight that she was about to close her shop due to a lack of visitors but is happy that someone has come, so she decides to keep her bank running. Millibelle charges a 100 Geo fee to open an account and promises to keep the Knight's Geo safe, even after death. Players can deposit or withdraw their Geo at any time when visiting Millibelle.
However, once 2,550 Geo or more is deposited into the Knight's account, Millibelle vanishes from her stand after the Knight leaves. She runs off to the Pleasure House located in the City of Tears, which requires a Simple Key to unlock. When confronted, Millibelle initially claims that she spent all of the Knight's Geo. However, attacking her with the Nail causes her to drop all of the deposited Geo, as well as an additional amount of up to 2,250 Geo.
Some players have speculated about which characters Millibelle may have scammed, with Zote and Willoh being mentioned as possible victims. Millibelle's deception and theft highlight her true nature as a scam artist within the Hollow Knight game.

Millibelle is found in Fog Canyon
Millibelle the Banker is a merchant in Hollow Knight. She is a kind and trustworthy elderly banker bug who protects her visitors' Geo, the currency of Hallownest, inside her small bank stand located in Fog Canyon. Despite her kind and polite facade, Millibelle is a cunning thief who tricks others into giving her their Geo.
Millibelle can be found in her bank at the base of Fog Canyon, in the left room. When first interacted with, she explains to the Knight that she was about to close shop due to a lack of visitors, but is happy that someone came and decides to keep her bank running. For a small starting fee of 100 Geo, she provides a service to keep the Knight's Geo safe. Geo deposited in her bank is retained upon death and can be withdrawn at any time, up to a maximum of 4,500 Geo. If she holds 2,550 Geo or more and the Knight rests at a bench or uses the Stagways, visiting the bank again reveals that Millibelle has abandoned her stand.
Fog Canyon is a small, foggy area situated between Greenpath and the Fungal Wastes. The misty caverns of Fog Canyon are filled with bubbles and acid lakes, with some areas covered in thorns. The ground and walls usually consist of rocks or short, green flora. Access to the east and centre part of Fog Canyon is initially restricted by a Shade Gate, which requires the Shade Cloak to pass through it. This part of Fog Canyon can also be accessed from the Forgotten Crossroads via a hidden passage, which can be used with Isma's Tear, a careful Super Dash, or both Mothwing Cloak and Monarch Wings.

She vanishes with the Geo

She is a kind and trustworthy elderly banker bug who protects her visitors' Geo, the currency of Hallownest, inside her small bank stand located in Fog Canyon. However, it is all a scam, as Millibelle is actually a cunning thief who tricks others into giving her their Geo using her "bank".
When first interacted with, Millibelle explains to the Knight that she was about to close shop due to a lack of visitors, but is happy that someone came and decides to keep her bank running. For a 100 Geo fee to open their account, Millibelle provides a service to keep the Knight's Geo safe. All of the Knight's deposited Geo can be withdrawn at any time whenever the Knight visits. Millibelle can hold up to a maximum of 4,500 Geo, but once 2,550 Geo or more is deposited into the Knight's account, she will vanish from her stand after the Knight leaves and rests on a bench or uses Stag Fast Travel.
Where does Millibelle run off to? The Pleasure House located in the City of Tears, which requires a Simple Key to unlock. In the room above the ghost of Songstress Marissa is the City of Tears hot spring, where Millibelle is residing. At first, she attempts to tell the Knight that she spent all of their Geo, but hitting her with the Nail causes her to drop all of the Knight's deposited Geo by the hundreds. She also drops an additional number of Geo based on roughly half the amount of the Knight's deposited Geo, up to 2,250. Millibelle sitting at her "bank". Millibelle exposed (notice that she's now called Millibelle the Thief). The 100 Geo used to open the bank account is not returned.
Any of the additional attacking charms when equipped (Weaversong, Glowing Womb, Grimmchild, and Dreamshield) will attempt to attack Millibelle from behind the "bank", despite her not being an enemy. Any attacks caused by these charms will make Millibelle cower from underneath her stand and refuse to be interacted with until the Knight unequips the charms. Hitting Millibelle's empty stand following her escape causes it to fall on the floor, revealing it to be a 2D cutout. Her bank sign also falls to the ground on the way out.

Millibelle is found in the City of Tears
Millibelle the Banker is a non-player character (NPC) in Hollow Knight. She is a kind and trustworthy elderly banker bug who protects her visitors' Geo—the currency of Hallownest—inside her small bank stand located in Fog Canyon. Millibelle can be found in the left room at the base of the Fog Canyon. She charges a 100 Geo fee to open an account and provides a service to keep the Knight's Geo safe. However, once 2,550 Geo or more is deposited into the Knight's account, she will vanish from her stand.
Millibelle is indeed found in the City of Tears, specifically in the Hot Spring of Pleasure House, where she tries to explain that the disappearance of the Geo was part of a legitimate banking deal. Players will have the opportunity to recover the amount of Geo that was deposited 1.5 times more by attacking Millibelle's shell without harming her. The City of Tears area has multiple platforms on different levels patrolled by giant soldier bugs, and a locked door (requiring a simple key) leads to Millibelle's location.
To summarise, Millibelle the Banker initially offers her services in Fog Canyon, but after a certain amount of Geo is deposited, she moves to the City of Tears, where players can recover their Geo and more by interacting with her.
