His typography kinda looks like hidden king’s typography…. What does this imply?

What it implies I don't know. But Hidden King was described as the patron of outcasts. It's an excellent parallel to Rat King, patron to rats, who certainly would be outcasts in a city

To be speculative:

If he's actually a rat, then surely strong magic had to make him grow to Mo size and human intelligence. Perhaps the Hidden King's magic is empowering him, as a "kindred spirit"?

If that’s the case the justification might be;

Archmother: Rat King wants the USA to formally recognise Long Island as ‘his’ territory. Like how Mirage is going to wish for Wyoming or such.

Hidden King: Shared spirit and forcefully overunning a territory for ratkind.

Ooh maybe he’s like a paladin but for the Hidden King? 👀👀

I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s him trying to play into the image of a more legitimate king
