Worms=Ahamkara Confirmed!
So I recently got really bored and decided to finally read all the calcified fragments, and in just the fifth one, I found some cool info.
Now, to be fair, I haven't been on the forums in quite a while so I'm not sure if anyone has already found this and I missed it, but here goes. In card V, Needle and Worm, there is an allusion at the very end to the gear made of the Ahamkara themselves. Pieces like the Skull of Dire Ahamkara, Sealed Ahamkara Grasps, and so on.
In the descriptions of all of these armor pieces, the phrase, "oh *blank* mine" is frequently used, as you've probably noticed. In the card, although I'm not sure who's perspective it's from, the author says [quote]It was my father's familiar. I ripped it from him as we fled. It is a dead white thing, segmented, washed up from the deep sea. It's dead, but it still speaks to me. It says: listen closely, oh vengeance mine...[/quote]
As far as I see it, this is a ridiculously obvious reference, and shows without a doubt that the Ahamkara and worms are the same thing. Please let me know what you think guys!

The Worms are most likely Ahamkara, but Ahamkara are not necessarily the Worms. The Worms are most likely just a handful of particularly powerful Ahamkara that champion the Darkness and its goals that same way the Traveler champions the Light and its goals.

3 RepliesNo, ahamkara are beings that live in the void. Apparently only solar light can kill them, which is why we've only seen hunter and warlock gear for them. The theory goes that they are powerful beings living in the void, but they cross over to our reality every now and then. To do so, they need a host and at the moment they had a major migration to our realm dragons were the strongest beings alive. So they took their bodies. Now that there exists guardians who can and have defeated them, they found a stronger host. The armor pieces were not made by them but by us and they are alive and keep a piece of the original ahamkara's soul. They are slowly integrating and taking over the bearer's mind and body. Read the speakers card about the guardian question the speaker about the ahamkara. At the end the speaker figures out clearly why exactly they left bones behind
