Ticking Heart - Chapter One

Chapter One: You find her in pieces, buried in rust and silence at the edge of Hollowpin Junkyard. Now, with gears humming and golden eyes wide with wonder, she walks beside you. Her name is Anita. She remembers nothing, but the way animals flock to her... the way she hums songs no one taught her... something about her was never meant for scrap. In the heart of the steam-choked city of Harchester, within the warmth of Copper Alley, mystery stirs in her ticking chest. Help her. Guide her. Watch her become. Because sometimes, the most human soul is made of brass.
