Market of the Forgotten

<p>They only wanted to explore the night. They found a market that should never exist.</p><p>When a group of college students stumbles upon a strange bazaar that appears only after midnight they're drawn in by its glowing lanterns and impossible wares; things that can't be found in daylight things that whisper when touched. But the deeper they wander into the fog-drenched stalls the more they realize the market isn't a place at all. It's a living thing feeding on memory breath and bone.</p><p>What begins as a curious detour becomes a waking nightmare as James Dana Malik and their friends find themselves marked by the market's strange merchants hunted by faceless figures and tethered by threads they can't see but feel twisting under their skin. To escape they must descend into the heart of the market where the streets breathe the ground hums with a rhythm older than language and something vast and hungry waits to rise.</p><p>Every step toward freedom will cost them. Choices will divide them. And even survival may not mean escape as the market's pulse leaves scars deeper than flesh; and whispers that follow them into the waking world.</p>
