Wind On Talwin

A Circus of Hells, CHAPTER TWELVE.

When Morioch tells Ydwyr:

"'Let the datholch know this is Junior Lieutenant Dominic Flandry." (p. 278)

- the wind responds:

"Silence fell, except for the wind whose rising skirl began to pierce the heavily insulated walls." (ibid.)

Ydwyr's gaze probes. He has heard of Flandry. As Morioch continues his account:

"...Flandry thought through the loudening wind..." (ibid.)

The wind loudens as the threat increases. Anderson's sound effects are as pervasive as those of a film. Any screen adaptation would have to include a lot of wind.
