Level 4, Lesser creations
Make someone stop talking and listen.
Make someone unable to tell a given secret.
Make a small area fall and stay quiet- either by choice (no-one talks there) or miraculous power (they can try, sound just doesn't carry).

Inflict literal or figurative deafness.

Know the content of silent communication.
See anything that has occurred in a silent place.
Scry/receive hazy images the future through silent meditation.

Level 6, Lesser changes
Change the character of a silence (make it more menacing, or soothing, or give it a new one such as 'funny').
Make a silence a physical thing -- a glass bubble that must be broken for sound to come back, or a stealthy cloak, or a wall to keep someone out.
Cause a silence to follow someone around, blotting out sound wherever they go.
Make a silence that breaks sound, like a horn that negates nearby sound when blown.

Ruin global diplomatic relations by making it impossible for nations to keep secrets, or disagree quietly.

Level 9, Major changes
Add new possible atmospheres to silence, so that a silent place can be of itself world-wearying or euphoric.
Give silence the ability to be powdered and preserved for later, whisper riddles... or eat people.
Make a secret poisonous to keep, or deadly to reveal. Or both.
