The Music Of Sound
* * * * *
For his whole life, he'd heard things no one else did. He sensed the rhythm of the sword clashes. He heard the hum of the marketplace. He listened to the cadence of the horses' march, the chime of a spoon hitting a pot, and the thunk of a blade hitting meat. In his mind, he fit the pieces together.
Stomp, stomp, clickâclack, chime... chime.
Stomp, stomp, click-clack, chime... chime.
Stomp, stomp, click-thunk, chitter-chatter, chime.
Later he discovered the portal, and L.A., which had more sounds than he'd ever dreamed possible. But in Pylea, he found music wherever he could.
