# 5 | The Stewards of The Worm

At the end of the Circle of The Worm sat [@smaroo](https://twitter.com/Smaroo), tasked with the heavy burden of determining The Worm’s next step. Heavy is the head that wears The Worm.

[@smaroo ](https://twitter.com/Smaroo)decided to continue raising awareness of The Worm by requiring 100 retweets on his Twitter thread about The Worm before passing The Worm along.

Ultimately @smaroo got the attention he wanted for The Worm, and released The Stewards of The Worm, a list of 13 people who are expected to pass The Worm to one another in a specified order:

Seeking The Worm, the community's meme and fan art game was strong:

Most of the people chosen came from The Worm’s Discord channel, but a few outsiders were added as well, including one at the end of the Stewards list. As this person is responsible for determining The Worm’s next steps (should The Worm actually make it to that person), this prompted ongoing discussion of what should happen toward the end of the Steward’s time with The Worm.

Ultimately, The Worm made it to the Stewards:

And then ... The Worm kept going...
