That is a very good question Herr D. Unfortunately the only answers available for it are stupid ones because it’s open to interpretation so there is no answer. How do you know the mountain has or is a mother? or that it’s even organic? or that if it is it’s not some sort of immortal. The options are infinite. I trust you or someone else on here can come up with a reasonable explanation. yours you already put are pretty good. Keep em coming till you get bored.
