About this listen
ercury. The smallest planet. The closest to the Sun. To the human eye, it looks dead. A rock. A wasteland. But silence can hide monsters. And if anything crawled here—born of heat, hunger, and iron—it would be nothing like us.
In this video, we imagine the thing that might wait beneath Mercury’s skin… a predator sharpened by extremes… and one that would see us as prey.
We call it the Ferrivore—the iron eater. Imagine a centipede stretched longer than a car, armored in jagged plates that glisten like molten steel. Its skin isn’t flesh—it’s alloy, grown from Mercury’s crust, fusing mineral and bone until the two are indistinguishable.
It doesn’t see with eyes. It doesn’t need to. It feels the heartbeat of the planet, senses vibrations in stone, tastes the faint magnetic hum of iron veins. When it moves, the ground quivers.
Its mouth… isn’t really a mouth.
