ÖRKIN

There was no marker to show where the land ended and the sea began, except for the blocks of solid sea, where the water had frosted over, shifted, then frozen again.

Tiny slabs of ice squatted, stacked like tombstones.

We walked out onto the crusted water.

The ice groaned under our feet, the rumble of an Arctic bear, warning as the dark water beneath shifted.

We stopped.

My heart beat in my throat.

I waited for the crack of the ice, the roar of the water.

The world held its breath.”
