"Thanks to the Native Grubs' exceptional adaptability, they evolved into Sandpit Worms in the barren desert. Their dry skin forms a waterproof layer to prevent moisture loss, while the sharp mouthparts can absorb any moisture they come into contact with."
"This massive monster swims beneath the desert's sand. It spends most of its time submerged, but if it senses sound, it will breach the surface to feast on whatever it can grab. Running around carelessly can be dangerous if you suspect there may be one in the area."
— Hyrule Compendium on the Molduga, The Legend of Zelda: Breath of the Wild
"And of course, it's a desert planet, so it's got to have sandworms because that's like a law of science fiction or something."
— Overheard on Nimbus III, Star Trek Online

Bless the coming and going of Him.
