Metaphorosis magazine - beautifully written science fiction and fantasy
Fiction:Science Fiction
Lena is an ice child, a wraithlike being who dwells in the depths beneath a frozen pond with others like herself. She doesn’t remember a time before she lived there; she really doesn’t remember much at all. But when Lena meets a child of the surface, some of her memories begin coming back, though not all of these newly unburied recollections are welcome.
