oth are vital sources of energy for the modern world and both were formed by geologic processes over millions of years. However, petroleum was mainly formed from the remains of ocean-dwelling microorganisms. Coal, on the other hand, originated from decayed vegetation in ancient swamps and bogs. In any case, it took millions of years for both coal and oil to be produced.

After putting Madeline in the vault, Usher’s madness begins to increase. Why does he get so much worse?
Svetradugi [14.3K]
Usher's madness begins to increase because he can hear the sound of Madeline below.
Even though his sister is buried in the basement, he can constantly hear her scratching her coffin. He was tortured by these sounds until the protagonist came to visit him so he could share his troubles with him. Usher is afraid of his 'undead' sister and of dying himself, which is why he grows crazier and crazier by the day, until he is finally killed by his own sister in the end.
