How to build HOLLOW from the tiles

PE · NT · AM · ET · ER · HY · GI · ENE · PO · LES · TAR · EFF · IGY · TI · TI · HOL · LOW · AN · GU · ISH

HOLLOW is built by combining the tiles HOL · LOW in order. Because those tiles come out of the shared bank, locking in HOLLOW early also narrows what's left for the other six clues.
