| But here they were building something and not a sound came from anybody that was acknowledged or understood.
No one led the people, this was a nation without leaders. They built art, they possessed the ability but not the knowledge of the ability. They built something that was taller and bigger than anything but what motive drove them nobody understood. There was not a single ego or Monarchy at work here. This was not anarchism. People built with purpose that no one person knew, a monument that was not a mark of civilization\culture or any one persons ego, and monuments are that, it is either triumph of a civilization to master art or the ego of a dictator like monarch driving people for himself. This tower was a question for all future aware human civilizations to ponder and understand.
The river adventure continued for him. It took him many moons and moonless nights before he stopped covering his ears and heard the sound completely.

The nano objects were real Pojo's (Plain old Java objects). They had encapsulated their own methods and had a protocol to communicate with other nano objects, they called it NMTP (Nano Message Transfer protocol). These nano objects had a unique feature, they had the ability to implement interfaces during runtime. This was the important feature that both Rudra and Adam were exploiting for their experiments.
The idea was simple. They would insert these nano objects in to the blood of the human specimen. These nano objects will interface with the auditory receptor cells converting the sound waves of language to the nerve signals that would be transmitted to the brain. This required an algorithm implemented in the nano objects that would be universal in nature to interpret specific sound waves of different languages to specific nerve signals that represented the action. This was the problem that they faced because each vibration of sound in a language meant a different action, nuance, comprehension.
The nano objects were modified for the four people who volunteered for the experiment it was made to listen to a universal language and convert it to the nerve signal, the action for that person. The universal language chosen was Sanskrit.
Each of them was given a specific set of mechanical problems to solve. These problems and the solution were droning in the speaker system in Sanskrit. And they were to be performed in different locations so that the intuition and existing cognition of the human specimens, the person, does not hinder and produce the ability to imagine, stumble upon the solution without the support of the Sanskrit instructions.

The Man had reached the river. He was touching it feeling its sensation of the flow. The fear of the sound had replaced itself with curiosity for the sound. There was new meaning to this understanding today. So many times he had drank it and so many times he had known it. He already possessed the ability to react to sounds but reacting and comprehending are two different things.
