Wormgyre was the name given to the throneworld of the Hellgrammite race.
Protected by a shield of Warp-fire known as "Aetheric Fire", Wormgyre was impervious to attack throughout most of the Bellrath Crusade. However, thanks to technology provided by the Adeptus Mechanicus, the warships of the Sons of Medusa were able to penetrate the planet's fire shield and launch a direct surprise attack, reducing the planet to rubble and shattering the Hellgrammite race.[1]
