Limestone is a common type of sedimentary rock which I find uncommonly interesting! It's mostly calcium carbonate, which is also what eggshells π₯, seashells π, and pearls π¦ͺ are made out of.
In places where it rains a lot, limestone erodes easily, which results in simply gorgeous landscapes such as:
HαΊ‘ Long Bay in Vietnam
Tsingy de Bemaraha National Park in Madagascar
The Li River in China
Additionally, the world's longest (Mammoth) and deepest (~~Veryovkina~~ Krubera is once again the world's deepest cave, thank you to SockOlm for pointing that out) cave systems are both found in limestone formations
Mammoth Cave in the United States
Veryovkina Cave in Georgia/Abkhazia/Russia (disputed territory)

the psychic Link get severed and I'm left floating
so that's cool. On the real while it kind of sus in some moments I do like how it goes against the "beautiful people are good ugly people bad thing" not ground breaking but whatever. Lot of shows like you know who you're supposed to be sympathetic towards and who gets humanity extended towards them vs who's supposed to be a one off villain/thug. There's some overlap with racism and dehumanization there that gets explored I feel. Honestly might check out the webcomic tomorrow since I like where it's going.
