Story Transcript:

Fr: Entre les murs délabrés d'une ancienne école, le soleil d'été perce à travers les fenêtres brisées, illuminant les vestiges d'une époque révolue.
En: Between the dilapidated walls of an old school, the summer sun pierces through the broken windows, illuminating the remnants of a bygone era.

En: He knows there is a treasure hidden here, in the forgotten library, a last refuge of knowledge.

Fr: Avec lui, Élodie, son amie fidèle, le suit de près.
En: With him, Élodie, his loyal friend, follows closely.

Fr: Elle est pratique et calme, mais une peur la hante secrètement : celle de ne jamais quitter cet endroit.

Fr: Luc n'est pas sûr de lui faire confiance.

En: Books are there, stacked, dusty, but precious, witnesses of the past.

Fr: "Voilà notre avenir," murmure Luc en entrant.
En: "This is our future," Luc murmurs as he enters.

Fr: Mais l'extérieur est dangereux.

Fr: Des groupes de pillards rôdent.
En: Groups of looters roam.

Fr: Luc se demande s'ils devraient s'enfuir avec tout ce qu'ils peuvent porter.

Fr: Mais Hugo a un autre plan.

Fr: Il veut quitter la ville et chercher un lieu sûr dont tout le monde parle.
En: He wants to leave the city and look for a safe place everyone talks about.

Fr: "Nous devons partir," presse Hugo.

Fr: "C'est notre chance."

Fr: Luc hésite.
En: Luc hesitates.

Fr: Il tient tant à ces livres.

Fr: Ces pages peuvent être perdues, mais tant que les gens survivent et apprennent, le savoir peut être reconstruit.
En: These pages can be lost, but as long as people survive and learn, knowledge can be rebuilt.

Fr: L'air est frais dehors, le soleil éclatant illumine leur route.
En: The air is fresh outside, the bright sun illuminates their path.

Fr: Ensemble, ils marchent vers l'horizon, vers ce sanctuaire dont parlait Hugo.
En: Together, they walk towards the horizon, towards the sanctuary Hugo spoke of.

Fr: Luc sait que même s'ils ont laissé des choses derrière eux, l'important est ce qu'ils portent en eux.
