This is an excellent story and should be adopted into the background. Ok geologists - can you justify this?

Limestone can turn into limestone (interestingly enough when exposed to heat see:

        meta.htm)         

        Here's a suggestion: during the battles between the Storm Tribe and

        the Water Tribe Helamakt had to fight a battle where the waters tried

        to overwhelm him. As he slew the attackers he piled their bodies

        higher and higher so he had somewhere to stand where he could still

	breathe.  Eventually he built a mound high enough and had slain 
	enough foes to win the fight.  The bodies of his briny foes
turned 
	into limestone (of the coquina variety (you can still see
smaller 
	chunks of some of the deep sea monsters in the rock)). 
	
	Later on Sesarto the Artist came along and struck by the rugged 
	beauty of the spot built Whitewall.  During the construction he 
	somehow turned the limestone into a magical marble.
