Can anyone help me translate this sentence?

[Cala]

Hi, I'm reading a book to improve my Japanese. (Yume no Moribito). Since I'm trying to learn from it I would like to actually understand all the sentences. This one has me baffled.

やがて 、それらのざわめきが 、潮が引くようにすうっと引いていき 、白熱した静けさが心に満ちた … … 。

I can provide context if that is necessary. All I can tell is:
Finally, their stirring/fidgeting
Then something about being pulled like the tide?
And the last part is just too intense for me. Something like the silence became white hot and filled someone's heart...

I edited your post since the font size is too small to read. Thanks for your understanding.

ざわめきが is the subject of 引いていき.
潮が引くように is an adverbial clause.
Have you learned "modifying clause"? 白熱した modifies 静けさ.

 

[Cala]

So, something like:

Finally, like a tide pulls, their restlessness suddenly pulled her in, and the white hot silence filled her heart.

 

[Toritoribe]

（ざわめきが）引いていく usually expresses "to disappear", but you got the gist of it.

 

[Cala]

So more like:

Like a tide pulls back, so did their unease

All the instances I've seen 引く in so far were to do with pulling, so I wouldn't have thought about disappearing, but if it's like pulling back then I guess it kinda works?

Thanks for all the help so far.
