After going through the gaseous intestines, Delta cuts the arteries around its three hearts using Lancers, depriving the Riftworm of blood and sending it into shock, killing it afterward. Delta then makes its way through, avoiding the dangers of its stomach and teeth, and finds Carmine mauled by stomach parasites who then dies in the company of his squad mates. The chopper is subsequently swallowed by the Riftworm, and Delta presumably ends up somewhere in the Riftworm's gullet. It also has thousands of parasites living inside called Nemacytes that can attack anything left alive in its stomach.ĭuring the Battle of Ilima the riftworm swallows Delta's King Raven as it attempts to evacuate them from the ruins of Ilima, an event which causes Carmine to fall into its mouth away from the rest of the team. The worm is able to eat all manner of objects including rock, vehicles and even entire buildings and digest them. It also seems that Skorge, as leader of the Kantus priests, is the one that directs the Riftworm where to go.
Delta Squad sees Skorge on his Hydra ordering the beast to sink Ilima.Ī Locust Tablet which Baird tries to translate suggests that the Riftworm was 'awoken' by the Lightmass Bomb, which explains why the Riftworm hasn't been seen or heard before by the COG.
During Operation: Hollow Storm, it is used by the Locust to create holes underneath the cities around Jacinto to sink it. The Riftworm was a massive worm that can be controlled, much like the Rock worms, by the howls and shrieks of the Kantus, in particular their leader, Skorge. " Anya, it's a giant worm! They're sinking cities with a giant worm!" - Marcus Fenix
