2	Perception (Hearing)	The dry grass crackles under your feet as you stop. Far away birds' wings touch the still surface of the sea...		3 4
3	You	What is that flutter?		5
4	You	[Stop listening.]
5	Perception (Hearing)	The flock of quail departs; now more than a hundred metres away... a hundred and two... a hundred and five...		13
6	Perception (Hearing)	On the islet? There is almost no wind, just the light movement of air through the reeds. Bulrushes swaying on the waterline, long dried leaves chafing against each other.		15

25	Perception (Hearing)	A low hum. The air slowly moves through a concrete box -- through its ancient slits and cracks. Resonating. Hollow. A big building.		48
26	Perception (Hearing)	Air flows out of a pillbox window. There is very little there. The air cossets flowers on a meadow? Absolute silence. Reeds motionless. Bulrushes motionless.		40
27	Perception (Hearing)	The far away roar of the city, distant like today's dream. Before it, the sound of sand. The low tide filtered through its grains... a bird tending to its feathers.		7
