Once her yelling was spent, we decided...

Hi

Is this sentence natural -- I mean, the underlined part?

Once her yelling was spent, we decided to enter the room.

Thanks,

Tom

It's correct, but it seems natural to me only in a literary context. In ordinary conversation it's "Once she stopped yelling".
