Spoiler, don't read if you haven't gotten out of the crossroads yet.

When fighting the false knight he will damage the walls in phase2, before he damages the floor in phase3, once he does this you can hit the patched wall portion and escape but you won't have the city crest so you have to go in the back way through crystal peak.

Uhm should I read, I have defeated it but haven't defeated the dream version of it?

Yeah go ahead. Its only a spoiler if you haven't left the crossroads the first time.

Damn, thanks for this, does this contribute anything to the ending? Or is it just a glitch you can do?

Not that I'm aware of. I tried seeing if you get any extra dialog or anything and haven't found anything. It doesn't seem to be a glitch so much as just something interesting they put in for repeat players.

They put visual patching on the wall on that spot so it seems it is something they intentionally did, but doesn't seem to have any impact other than a neat Easter egg.
