The two lower front teeth measure at 11.4 meters in height and the two upper teeth at 10.3 meters. The skull by itself is just under 100 meters in length, almost as long as the entire body of a Sea Dragon Leviathan. They are likely digesting the matter that makes up its bones. The skeleton is currently covered in amoeboids. Whether the infant creature was related to the adult or their proximity is simply a coincidence is also not clear. The cause of death cannot be identified from the remains: there is, however, no evidence the creature died of something other than old age or some other natural cause. It is possible that its body is sealing up a tunnel that it used to enter, since that would explain why two thirds of it is underground. Given the intact nature of the bones, one possibility is that the Lost River represents a natural tunnel system the creature entered in the distant past, now choked with vegetation and partially collapsed such that it could not enter them in their modern arrangement. How it came to rest in the Lost River is difficult to explain, as it seems unlikely that such a limited biome would be a colossal creature's natural habitat: the only real clue given is that the PDA log states that geological changes have occurred, and that the creature could not have entered the Bone Fields in their current configuration. These samples were probably studied at the Lost River Laboratory Cache, as this was the main site in which Leviathan class bone samples are found. The Precursors were also studying these remains, as evidenced by small, angular indentations on the ribcage. Smaller versions of its ribs can be seen in the entrance to the Lost River Junction, while a much smaller but otherwise identical skull which also gives the Gargantuan Fossil scan can be found in the Ghost Forest, presumably from a juvenile example of the species. ![]() ![]() The skull is so large that a Cyclops can fit inside its jaws. The skeleton is covered in flora and coral. ![]() The remains consist of a huge, vaguely reptilian skull and sixteen pairs of huge ribs. The skeleton belonged to an eel-like Leviathan Class super-predator dwarfing both the Sea Dragon Leviathan and Sea Emperor Leviathan, despite only being around one third of the whole skeleton. The Gargantuan Fossil is an enormous and ancient fossil, approximately three million years old, found in the Bone Fields.
