[Hollow Knight] What happens to cloth if she doesn't die to the mantis lord?

I remember playing through hollow knight having an amazing time and when I beat the mantis lord it was a great well fought tough battle. Then I got more into the community and found out she's supposed to help you fight him which for some reason I did not get I fought him solo. So what happened to her? Is she still alive? Did she just leave hollownest? Was i the only one to get this weird event?

From the wiki: If Cloth was not rescued in the Ancient Basin (the condition in game to have her help you) before killing the Traitor Lord, she decides to leave Hallownest, having found no challenge she could not overcome or die trying. She returns to Dirtmouth and sleeps outside of Sly's shop for a quick rest. She thanks the Knight for the inspiration they gave her but states her plan to find more challenges outside Hallownest's ruins. In her mind, she still hopes to be reunited with Nola in death. Cloth leaves Dirtmouth after she is listened to and the area is exited.
