The click of flint striking steel is all but inaudible.
The blast that follows not a split-second afterwards is anything but.
The shot seems to ring out for an interminable period of time, fragmented echoes sharp and jagged against the now-muted sound of the ocean. The acrid scent of burnt powder lingers even longer in the damp salty air.
