~ Sankalpa by Marie Brennan DNF
{Sankalpa (which is the title of the story) defined as: an intention formed by the heart and mind -- a solemn vow, determination, or will. ... A sankalpa is a tool meant to harness the will, and to focus and harmonize mind and body.}

Takes patience and deciphering skills. I tapped out when it appeared that the MC was the river or only half a river. If you like the below please don't let me dissuade you from reading the story.

"I bathed in the waters of Ganga, and she, knowing my purpose, cursed me: to be reborn as a river, bearing water only four months of the year, difficult to approach, haunted by crocodiles. But such was the power of my austerities that only half my soul fell to this curse; the other half continued onward, burning the heavens themselves with the heat of my determination.

Until Lord Shiva himself appeared before me and granted my wish, the vengeance that had driven me to such extremes."
