For example, there is a point of view in tBH in which someone remembers the last time a storm such as what the falling green giants caused giving birth to a mountain of otataral. This is when I would like to post a quote, but my book is not here
Hmmm. I looked through the various povs during that storm, and couldn't find anything like what you describe. The closest I could get was this:
BH, chapter 20, p. 945 pb.
"The sky falls," Noto Boil said as he fell back in beside the High Fist.
Scowling, Paran continued studying the strange appearance in the eastern sky, seeking some sense of what it was they were witnessing.
Whatever it is, I don't like it.
"You doubt me?" the healer asked. "High Fist, I have walked the lands of Korel. I have seen the craters left behind by all that descended from the sky. Have you ever perused a map of Korel? The entire northern subcontinent and its host of islands? Fling a handful of gravel into mud, then wait whilst water fills the pocks. That is Korel, sir. The people still tell tales of the countless fires that fell from the sky, in the bringing down of the Crippled God."
However, I think Heboric had a passage, probably in DHG, where he speculated on the origin of Otataral Island. (Or was it otataral in general?)
