lmao I accidentally did the same on my first playthrough too after listening to Marissa for a while it doesn't affect any gameplay or story, but I think you stop hearing her voice in the music whenever you are in City of tears, you just dreamnailed her ghost and sent her to bug afterlife, so think of it as doing her a favor, she's now at peace, don't feel bad I don't think you can get her back by reloading a save. Just gonna have to start a new playthrough. If you really want to bring her back you might need to edit the save file.

there are some save file editors online which you can use to alter in the game, you can just google hollow knight save editor and get this below link

https://bloodorca.github.io/hollow/

the steps are also there I think but I don't know properly as I never used it before but I've seen some videos on it, you basically import your local save file stored in you PC into that link, it'll appear in text form where you can edit values, then download the edited file and place it back into you local save directory, open your game and changes will appear.

No, you won't download the editor, its an online editor, you only download your edited SAVE file after using the online editor in the browser. Look into this reddit link, they clarify your doubts

https://www.reddit.com/r/HollowKnight/comments/7imcgy/modify_save_file_windows_and_mac/

Dreamnailing Marissa is really not a big deal, it won't affect any story or gameplay. Going through all this save file editing isn't worth it.

The editor works in your browser. It's like a webpage. It's not even necessary to use it online, as it works on Javascript (browser-based language) — which means that everything is happening on your own PC and inside the browser. (no servers involved)
It's completely safe. Also, the code is fully open-source, everyone can look into it.

There is no other way to edit a save file, without using some third-party software, unless you are a programmer who can create their own tool to do that.

Remember to create save backups before any editing.

If you will be interested on what value to change in the save to bring Marissa back, let me know — I can help with that.
