Ultimately, Savathûn's Worm would find itself outmaneuvered by Mara Sov after she offered it a new host in exchange for its knowledge of Savathûn's role during Humanity's [[Collapse]]. When it appeared in a ritual that Mara was about to become its new host, she instead transformed it into a weapon called [[Parasite]], much to its shock and dismay. The Awoken Queen clarified that its new form will allow it to continue living but its 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.<ref name="QueenAndWorms" />
