Overview

In a decaying city that devours kindness and spits out machinery, one man's desperate act of mercy awakens something ancient and starving. It pulses in his veins. It rewrites his flesh. And it never stops feeding. The rain never stops in the alleys where broken things wait to be claimed. Marco finds a twisted piece of metal that doesn't belong-cold, seamless, pulsing like a second heartbeat. He should have walked away. Instead, he held on. Now miracles bleed from his fingers. A dying woman draws breath. A lost child slips free of the dark. But every kindness feeds something deeper-something woven into the city's concrete veins, ticking like a gear in a hollow chest. Copper wires thread through the shadows. Gears grind in forgotten labs. Children become batteries for a hunger that never ends. The suits in black are coming. The tower is rising from the river-flesh and rebar fused, eyes blinking in unison. And Marco? He's no savior anymore. He's the meal. A surreal descent into body horror and cosmic dread, Tick of the Hollow Heart explores inherited trauma, false redemption, and the endless cycle where mercy feeds the machine. For fans of Clive Barker, Jeff VanderMeer, and the visceral nightmares of modern weird fiction. One pulse at a time, the city eats its saviors. Will you let it tick in your chest?
