One possible source of inspiration would be the Zanclean flood, where the Mediterranean suddenly got connected to the Atlantic ocean and filled up quickly. Plate tectonics are cool in that way that they happen very slowly but some of their effects are extremely sudden.

Rules:

  1. Follow Lemmy’s Code of Conduct.
  2. Remain on-topic. Worldbuilding contains many areas of interest, so, when in doubt, explain how your contribution fits within worldbuilding.
  3. Give context in the comments of your post. This will help your audience engage with your creation and encourage interaction.
  4. Tag posts as NSFW if they contain images or discussion of extreme violence or explicit sexuality.
  5. Advertising should not disrupt the community. Self-promotion of projects related to worldbuilding are fine. However, you must be willing to engage with your audience.
  6. Love each other. There’s a human on the other side of your screen, so treat them with respect.
