Plus, I thought it was pretty clear that the prophecy didn't mean "a moment without sound" but The Silence, the group, falling. If it was just referring to a moment of silence, then why on Earth would The Silence go to such great lengths to try to kill The Doctor? I can't see how they are affected by this episode since it is not happening "at the fall of the Eleventh."

:Well, "silence falling" could also be referred to stars going out. Anyway we still don't have many clues to Moffat agenda.. It is unknown why the Silence really wanted the Doctor dead (to prevent someone breaking in his timeline and destroy everything he saved? well killing him would still mean exposing his timeline to everyone.. not a great plan), nor why the Tardis exploded in season 6, so all this is just speculation--[[User:Gulinux|Gulinux]] [[User talk:Gulinux|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 21:28, May 19, 2013 (UTC) | :Well, "silence falling" could also be referred to stars going out.

: No, it as made quite clear why the Silence want him dead and to what "silence will fall" refers to in "The Wedding of River Song". The Doctor realizes that "silence will fall" refers to his silence; his death, and Dorium states that the Silence believe "silence must fall when the Question is asked" and that they are determined to prevent the Doctor from reaching Trenzalore. This means that the Silence's goal is to kill the Doctor before he can reach Trenzalore, thus preventing the Question from being answered (since if the Doctor were dead, the Question could only be met with silence, as there would be no one there to answer) and furthermore, preventing the Great Intelligence from gaining access to the Doctor's timeline and undoing all the good he's ever done.

I think this is set after the time of the Silence fall on Trenzalore. The Doctor fought the Silence there causing them to fall, but maybe this caused his final death and as he was dying he requested the tomb to be built and sealed it with his name.[[User:A-Smk|A-Smk]] [[User talk:A-Smk|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 23:08, May 19, 2013 (UTC) | I think this is set after the time of the Silence fall on Trenzalore.
