A fresh leaf landing in a still pond creates very little movement or disturbance, which is what soundlessly landing after a whirl of light would entail.
Consider the statement "She soundlessly landed after her cloak billowed around her and then vanished in a whirl of light.". Is the statement "Her billowing cloak vanishes in a whirl of light, allowing her to land like a fresh leaf in a still pond." false? Yes/no/unknown
