The Bog Entity is a Worldsoul that had hidden itself in The Bog from the Approaches on Innistrad.[1]
The Entity of the Bog resided here for centuries, infusing everything in the area with its power. It seeped into the souls of the villagers and tied them to it.
When Prioress Merlinde first came to the Approaches — sent to the region by the Church of Avacyn to teach the people the correct path of faith — she went to the Bog and looked into it using her powers. There, she found the Bog Entity to be terrible, vast, and ancient. Knowing that she could not fight it with conventional prayers or wards, she built the priory of the Nameless Angel, and dedicated everything she had to converting the people of the Approaches. Souls began being converted, and they gave themselves to the Angel instead of the Bog.
Because the souls that were part of its being were siphoned off by the Seelenstone, the strength of the Entity in the Bog shrank, until it grew desperate enough to try something new. The Enity pulled the rest of itself out of the Bog and sought a host. By accident, it found the womb of a woman pregnant with two daughters - Willia and Tacenda Verlasen - and ended up split between the twin sisters. As it was not complete, it couldn't communicate with either girl. It tried to affect senses, trying to override their vision as a way to communicate, which resulted in their regular blindness.
