Synopsis
Two monsters live on opposite sides of a mountain, communicating only through a hole. One evening, they argue about whether day is ending or night is beginning. Their disagreement escalates into a rock-throwing battle, eventually demolishing the mountain. With the barrier gone, they finally see each other, realise their quarrel was pointless, and become friends.
