And at its Heart,
Such Depths

by Kaya Skovdatter

Siva and Meghan have been friends forever, even if they’d like to be more to each other, both terrified it’ll wreck their friendship. But high school was already hard enough before a mountain replaced most of Toronto overnight and Meghan disappeared - along with most of the city’s inhabitants. Now Siva’s gone deep into the tunnels below the craggy rise, hoping if she delves deep enough she can find Meghan, lost somewhere in an underworld that defies logic; an underworld in which Siva’s slowly becoming something else as Meghan’s voice drives her on, growing stronger the closer Siva gets to the mountain’s hidden heart.
