Rayen
The early afternoon sun blazes down on the asphalt on the Don Valley Parkway, or what used to be the highway before The Great Devastation, a world barely familiar to Rayen now. The highway, which was once surrounded by lush forest, is now barren as if she was walking along a Nevada road devastated by fires and drought. To her surprise, she sees tiny new growth and hopes that the rumors that rains have returned to the city are true, or else this mission was for nothing. Rayen has been walking for days, scouring the abandoned rusted cars, searching for anything edible left behind. Sweat drips down from her brown curly hair as she brushes her forehead with her hand. She thinks about stopping, finding shade and relief from the heat, but she knows she’s close to the city, to Toronto, the place she once called home.
