Abstract

An injured amphibian crawls into a burrow to escape from harsh reality. Outside, the shrieks of dying animals pierce the silence over a hellish backdrop of flowing lava and dark, ominous clouds of volcanic ash. Still recovering from broken ribs and trying its best to survive the desolate conditions, the amphibian curls up next to the burrow's owner, a mammal-like reptile. Moments later, a flash flood traps and drowns the unlikely roommates, immortalizing their relationship for the next 250 million years.
