The '''Worms''' are an ancient, parasitic worm-like species that dwelled deep under the oceans of the gas giant [[Fundament]]. They are disciples of the [[Darkness]] and draw their god-like power directly from it. It is through a pact with the Worms that the ancestors of the [[Hive]] became the Hive and launched their conquest of the universe. The Worms are revered as the Hive's highest deities, beyond even [[Oryx, the Taken King]] and his sisters [[Savathûn]] and [[Xivu Arath]]. All Hive are infested with a larvae from one of the five Worm Gods, which drives them to feed off constant conquest and destruction lest the Worm grow unsatisfied and consume them instead.<ref>[http://db.destinytracker.com/grimoire/enemies/books-of-sorrow '''Planet Destiny''' - ''Grimoire: Book of Sorrows'']</ref> | The '''Worms''' are an ancient, parasitic worm-like species that dwelled deep under the oceans of the gas giant [[Fundament]].
