Ok, I might have gone a little overboard on the 'passing knowledge' one, haha. Ha.I was just thinking maybe Knott could be like "Hmm... This is the person who always cringes at the sound of Fenris Preaching."
But the idea that Knott is the teen that Lowell spared is pretty interesting. I might just modify Knott's backstory if I can think of a way to make it work. Perhaps Knott's got a relative that's associated with the cult Lowell was in, and that relative tried to rope Knott in? If I can get more info on the cult's operations, I might be able to come up with something more concrete.
I actually love what we have going on here! If you need any specific info about the cult, feel free to ask me! I'm still doing worldbuilding on it and some questions can certainly help! Having them have passing knowledge in the way that you mentioned also works! Whenever Fenris preaches both of them could non-verbally agree that it's "Hella Cringe."
There could be this moment later in-character where they realize 'Hey, this is that person! From the death cult!' And they have like... Group crying moment but its not a group it's just the two of them,,,.,..
