'''Savathûn's Worm''' is a [[Worm]] larva that once resided within the body of [[Savathûn, the Witch Queen]] and provided her with [[paracausal]] abilities, as is the case with all [[Hive]]. After being exorcised from the Witch Queen by [[Mara Sov]] and her [[Techeuns]], the parasite was kept alive by the Awoken Queen, to whom it grudgingly provided assistance in return for its continued survival. It is currently being kept within the [[Exotic]] [[Grenade Launcher]] [[Parasite]].

==Biography==

After meeting the [[Worm Gods]] in the depths of [[Fundament]], Savathûn (then known as Sathona) voluntarily allowed herself to be implanted with a Worm larva, as did her sisters [[Oryx|Aurash]] and [[Xivu Arath|Xi Ro]]. The Worm granted her biological immortality and paracausal abilities, allowing her to become powerful through the Sword Logic. It remained within her body for billions of years, until it was removed by Mara Sov and her Techeuns, who managed to keep it alive without a host. Mara promised the worm that it would be given a new host in due time; the Worm was led to believe this new host would be Mara herself.

Ultimately, Savathûn's Worm would find itself outmaneuvered by Mara Sov after she offered it a new host in exchange for it's knowledge of Savathûn's role during Humanity's [[Collapse]]. When it appeared in a ritual that Mara was about to become it's new host, she instead transformed it into a weapon called [[Parasite]], much to it's shock and dismay. The Awoken Queen clarified that it's new form will allow it to continue living but it's new "host" is now effectively a prison. [[The Guardian]] would use the weapon Savathûn's Worm had become to fight off the [[Scorn]] as Mara Sov finished the ritual. Despite being angry at being deceived, Savathûn's Worm nonetheless held up its end of the bargain, telling Mara and the Guardian that as the Witch Queen observed the Collapse on behalf of [[the Witness]], she instead tricked the Witness when it turned a violent gaze towards the [[Traveler]], which ultimately turned the tides and forced the Witness back into the stars. With that, Savathûn's Worm refused to speak of it anymore, but Mara Sov was satisfied with the information, tasking the Guardian to keep the weapon holding the worm close.
