Azath’s Pits

They are pits, carved into the terrain by the claws of adult Azaths—an insect-alike race of flying creatures who came from another world. While the adults barely eat anything, their younglings feast on carrions gathered from the surroundings.
They begin by gathering deceased beings into carved holes. The adults then lay their eggs amidst the decaying flesh. When the eggs hatch, birthing Azath larvae they start feeding on the corpses to sate their hunger. The adults tend to cover their entrances which often results in natural pit-traps—careless wanderers sometimes fall into. And these younglings, while normally just scavenging for sustenance amidst the rotting flesh, are not very fussy about their meals. They just eat till nothing is left.
