This can be [[ChekhovsGun hinted at in advance]], but as often as not it appears out of the blue to threaten the main characters and necessitate a hasty departure. Also note that the disaster always manages to hold off just long enough for the characters to actually discover the LostWorld and explore for a bit, then literally yanks the ground out from under them.
