Flesh-eating daggerworm

The flesh-eating daggerworm was a type of parasitic, non-sentient worm that originated at^[1] the Outer Rim^[2] world^[3] Trenwyth and lived in the internal organs of happabores, quadrupedal creatures that could be found on many planets in the Western Reaches. The Galacti-Stok–distributed Happy-Bore Medicated Dewormer, which could be used to control the populations of several types of parasitic happabore worms, was not recommended for treating flesh-eating daggerworm infestations. That fact was noted in an advertisement leaflet for the dewormer that was eventually included by the scavenger Rey in the survival guide^[1] she^[4] was writing before her departure from the planet Jakku—where happabores were one of the resident lifeforms^[1]—in 34 ABY.^[4]
