| Jul 26, 2020 at 18:43 | comment | added | DKNguyen | The only geological thing I can think of is the surroundings became extremely hot sometime after they formed. But that kind of heat would also sterilize the environment so life would have had to form soon after before they could erode away. Maybe you could attribute it to the byproducts of biological activity similar to coral reefs or diatomaceous earth. Perhaps some plants could have roots running along the top side to provide tensile strength as AlexP pointed out. | |

Lots of stories have elements that just are. I wouldn't feel obliged to explain everything in a story. Some things are hidden under the surface, some are just unsolved mysteries. | |
