An idea hit me; while there are myths about Dalamadur crushing mountains and it apparently being the source of the huge skeleton in the Primal Forest, the Dalamadur we fight are only about as long as some skyscrapers are tall. This gave me the idea that like some some real-world snakes, Dalamadur never stop growing. It's possible that the Dalamadur that appears in myth and is the source of the aforementioned huge skeleton lived long enough to grow to that size. Its death was probably like that of a beached whale, unable to support its own weight and therefore crushed by its own weight.
