The concept of locations/landscapes created from the body of an enormous creature is nothing new; Ymir in Norse mythology and Pan Gu from Chinese mythology are both creation myths where the world is created from the body of a dead giant. However, currently the Disney cartoon The Owl House is most famous for utilizing this concept; the Boiling Isles which most of the show takes place on is made from the remains of a dead gigantic humanoid called "the Titan", whose magical power was so immense that all life that evolved from the Titan's remains grew to wield magic as well.
I want to know if writing a story where a geographical feature is actually a dead (or dormant) giant being would be seen as ripping off The Owl House. I've considered having a mountain in one of my fantasy worlds which is really the body of a dead magical creature.
