Explanation

Dwindle means to gradually become smaller, fewer, or less in quantity, strength, or intensity. Decline captures this reduction - both describe something decreasing or diminishing over time. The other options (shimmer means shine with flickering light, shiver means tremble from cold, decoy means lure, fiddle with means manipulate) don't relate to gradual reduction.
