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 whole universe. The Worms are worshipped and 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>'''Bungie (2015/9/15)''', ''[[Destiny]]: [[The Taken King]], PlayStation 4, Activision Blizzard, [[Grimoire]]: [[Grimoire/Enemies/Books_of_Sorrow#IX:_The_Bargain|IX: The Bargain]]''</ref> | The '''Worms''' are an ancient, parasitic worm-like species that dwelled deep under the oceans of the gas giant [[Fundament]].
