-not as much as a theory as a lore from the grimoire- The hive worm gods, the ones that gave oryx(or shall i say aurash) his (or her) powers, are actually dragons. They wrre hunting the traveler with oryx. But it doesnt mean they are the ahamkara, right? Wrong. They also speak exactly like the ahamkara. Sayings like, oh bearer mine, or oh reader mine are what ahamkara sqy, and thats how the worm gods talk. But wait. They were also making guardians do things, even as dead stuff on your armor they can make you do stuff. They are even darker than the hive.
