Maia huddles in the dark, contentedly eating her biscuits and a small plate of food from Davies. It’s been weeks since her last conversation with Lucas. The dense biscuits made her empty stomach feel sick at first, but now she happily packs them in with her meals, two or three at a time.

After a few weeks, precious weight and vitality slowly trickle back into her system. The once protruding bones soften beneath her skin. She feels like herself again. With the strength to restart her daily routine, she takes a wild guess at how many notches she’s missed and carves them into the wood. She whispers to her grandfather again and stretches in the pitch black while she says her prayers. Her biggest source of gratitude is now the very thing that initially caused her grief. Time. Time to put on weight. Time to prepare. Time to pull herself back together before she is on her own again.

That’s the thing about the human spirit, what one can endure in the face of great hardship. She’s stood at the doorway of death and has come back again with a resolve stronger than ever to make it to The Old Arctic Circle.
