Ziggurat is an early draft of Worm, predating the creation of the Undersiders.<ref>Comment by Wildbow</ref>
Synopsis
During an Endbringer attack, a group of junior villains take over a city, trapping the residents in a ring of stone walls. It switched perspectives between the villains and the heroes fighting Hadhayosh. It would eventually merge into a singular story-line where Narwhal tries to deal with the captured city.<ref name="WoG1">Comment by Wildbow</ref>
