A Guardian's power makes a rich feeding ground. Do not be revolted. There are parasites that may benefit the host… teeth sharper than your own.
― In-game description
Whisper of the Worm is an exotic sniper rifle that was introduced in the Warmind expansion. It can be dismantled to generate Glimmer, Gunsmith Materials, and Legendary Shards.
Lore
This weapon has the following lore associated:
Xol, the Will of Thousands, perished but was not destroyed. Death is a road, death is metamorphosis, the unsacred union between destroyer and destroyed. The might which defeats a god is also the ambrosia that god craves, the meat-sweet logic of Existence-Asserted-By-Violence, the binomial decision between two ways of being which deny each other. In dying, Xol fed richly.
Now came Xol unto the Taken upon Io, who fed Xol with plunder and tried to make of it an idol and a commanding will. Yet Xol was bound joyously to the very logic that sustained it in its death. It wanted the sword proof, the single proof. It wanted to become a rule which divided the mighty living from the mighty dead. So it whispered the Anthem Anatheme, the temptation to dominate the objective universe with the subjective will. It said, I shall be an engine to make your desire hegemon over your conditions. It said, WIELD ME, AND USE ME TO TEST YOUR FOE. This was its worship. Aiat.

Sources
Whisper of the Worm can be obtained by completing the secret quest known as The Whisper. The mission is only available during the Friday-to-Monday window. The mission is initiated by traveling to Io and triggering the Taken Blight Public Event. Upon killing a secret boss spawning either in cave entrances or close to them, a portal will open, always in the same spot. Note the boss might be in a different spot each time.
The next stage of the quest includes jumping puzzles with moving objects. Guardians are given 20 minutes to reach the final puzzle and eliminate the final bosses to receive the weapon. The final encounter includes a battle with three lieutenants: Drevis, Aspect of Darkness, Urzok, Aspect of Hate, and Ta'aurc, Aspect of War.
Due to the difficulty of the mission given the time limit, it's recommended that players bring a full fireteam and have a Power level that exceeds the requirement for the activity.
