Just like the dinosaurs gave way To mounds and mounds of ice.

It's almost as if the author wants us to see things in the immortal world vice versa from the human reality world as not fearing creatures when you run into to them but rather get to know them and communicate with them and not being polite by knocking on doors but come in uninvited which really has you thinking about whether or not this at all is a game and they want to see who will be the brave one and enter through their world and how far they can push them till they give up on trying.

If an eagle gives you a feather, keep it safe.
I could be wrong about this but it seems to me that the author put this sentence in here to get across to the reader that it's important not to go behind one another's back and cheat because eventually what goes around comes around and if you go out of your way to do such bad things it will all add up at the end of the day and eventually end up hurting you dearly in the long run.
