The wind noise of Mute Star stopped. Not shut down, but eaten. The frequency band vacuum is like a huge sponge, rolling across the surface of the planet, sucking all sounds, all memories, and all evidence of "presence" into the bottomless black hole. Only one band remains. Like a seed, like a cry, like the first tremor in a person's throat before he learns to speak. That band came to be known as: Key.
