Hunter hasn’t told the others that he’s a grimwalker
King saw a small mountain’s worth of discarded Golden Guard masks, and the Collector — who is very aware of what grimwalkers are and that Hunter is one — has latched onto King as a new companion
Gus saw Belos’s worst memory — Belos killing somebody who is clearly a Hunter lookalike
Hunter’s secret might get out sooner than he’s ready to talk about it
(tap to see whole pic! Image ID’s, full page of drawings, and notes under the cut!)
[ID: Drawings of The Collector’s true form side by side with screenshots of The Collector before being freed. The images are in pairs, the drawings on the left side have the same expression and pose as the screenshots on the left side. The first two drawings are both colored, the bottom drawing is blue-ish purple monochromatic and shaded.]
[The top pair: an image of The Collector laying on his stomach on top of the portal door after it was rebuilt. He’s smiling with one hand on his chin, and one arm hanging down relaxed. Both his feet are in the air behind him.]
[The middle pair: The Collector is laying on his back, with one arm draped across his body. He’s sitting up some, and his expression is a mixture of confusion and concern.]
[Bottom pair: The Collector is floating, his hands are up with his palms facing down. He looks shocked in an upset way, and his eyes are wide. In the drawing on the left, his hands are closer to his body. End of ID]

* For some clarification, I couldn’t find the EXACT reference I used for the last one, so it’s slightly different. When I started, I forgot to save the references :(

Here’s the page of all the drawings, plus a few extra expressions that I couldn’t find any screenshots to go with, but those drawings were messier anyways.
[ID: A picture of someone claiming on top of a fridge, from the meme. The Collector from The Owl House is drawn over the person. Some text at the bottom reads “Go on, get back there! Get back into the orb! End ID]
[ID: A digital drawing of The Collector from The Owl House in his physical form. They are sticking their tongue out. He looks to the right. He is wearing his canon outfit. The background is a pale purple. There is a lighter purple circle with a glitter pattern around them. There is a watermark signed, “scarf” /end ID.]
I don’t know how The Owl House is going to end up handling The Collector, but I’m always going to keep in mind that:
1) They gave Belos the Draining Spell and knew exactly what was going to happen. They were GLEEFUL about it. The reason they stopped it was to get more players for a game, not to save everyone.
2) Implied to have killed King’s dad.
3) Probably told Philip about Grimwalkers since he didn’t have one with him when Luz and Lilith went back in time. Still didn’t have one with him when he first met The Collector. The Collector helped him make them. Love Hunter, but Grimwalkers as a concept are very messed up: Making a being to replace someone that has died. Making Grimalkers involves killing other creatures for their organs. Plus, The Collector knew Philip killed them and laughed about it. There is a reason they are urban legend: Everyone who did know they were real probably realized how messed up it is to make one: For the person who died, the people who cared about them, and the Grimwalker themselves, after finding out the truth
4) The Collector has been alive for centuries
5) Taught Philip everything he knows about magic and made him as powerful as he is.
The Collector is not just some child that can be adopted and then let free on the Isles, The Collector is dangerous, and Philip would not have come nearly as close to killing everyone on the BI if not for The Collector’s help.
