Story Transcript:

Sl: Matej je stal na vrhu Ljubljanskega gradu, opazoval zgodovinsko prireditev in si nervozno gladil lase.
En: Matej stood on top of Ljubljanski grad, observing the historical event and nervously smoothing his hair.

Sl: Pomladni dan je bil kot nalašč za dogodek, in obiskovalci so se zabavali.
En: The spring day was perfect for the occasion, and the visitors were having a good time.

Sl: Vonj cvetočih dreves je preplavljal zrak, ko so ljudje uživali v poučnem programu in zgodovinskih kostumih.
En: The scent of blooming trees filled the air as people enjoyed the educational program and historical costumes.

Sl: Nika je bila ena izmed igralk v prireditvi.
En: Nika was one of the performers at the event.

Sl: Njene oči so bile vedno pozorne.
En: Her eyes were always vigilant.

Sl: Pred nekaj dnevi je našla star dnevnik, ki je govoril o skritem zakladu.
En: A few days ago, she had found an old diary that spoke of a hidden treasure.

Sl: Vedela je, da lahko te informacije pomagajo Mateju pri njegovi skrivni želji.
En: She knew that this information could help Matej with his secret desire.

Sl: Igrala je svojo vlogo, a hkrati budno spremljala dogajanje okoli sebe.
En: She played her role but watched the happenings around her closely at the same time.

Sl: Gregor, skrbnik gradu, je bil tih mož z ljubeznijo do zgodovine.
En: Gregor, the castle's caretaker, was a quiet man with a love for history.

Sl: Poznal je vsak kotiček gradu in je imel svoje male skrivnosti.
En: He knew every nook and cranny of the castle and had his own little secrets.

Sl: Medtem ko je igral svojo vlogo v dogodku, se je bal, da bodo njegove skrivnosti razkrite.
En: While he played his part in the event, he feared his secrets might be uncovered.

Sl: Sredi popoldneva je izbruhnila panika.
En: In the middle of the afternoon, panic erupted.

Sl: Nekdo je izginil.
En: Someone had disappeared.

Sl: Matej se je moral hitro odločiti, kaj storiti.
En: Matej had to quickly decide what to do.

Sl: Da bi bila zadeva še bolj zapletena, je sumil, da izginotje ni naključno.
En: To make matters more complicated, he suspected the disappearance was not accidental.

Sl: Morda je povezano z zakladom.
En: Perhaps it was connected to the treasure.

Sl: Matej je stopil k Niki.
En: Matej approached Nika.

Sl: "Mislim, da morava biti detektiva," je tiho rekel.
En: "I think we need to be detectives," he said quietly.

Sl: Nika je pokimala in obljubila, da mu bo pomagala poiskati izgubljeno osebo.
En: Nika nodded and promised to help him find the missing person.

Sl: Začela sta načrtovati, kje naj iščeta.
En: They began to plan where to search.

Sl: Med iskanjem sta odkrila zastor, za katerim je bil skrivnosten prehod.
En: During their search, they discovered a curtain behind which was a mysterious passage.

Sl: "Poglej to," je rekla Nika.
En: "Look at this," said Nika.

Sl: Matej je izvlekel baterijsko svetilko.
En: Matej pulled out a flashlight.

Sl: Sledila sta temnemu hodniku, polnemu pajčevin in skrivnostnih senc.
En: They followed the dark corridor, filled with cobwebs and mysterious shadows.

Sl: Na koncu hodnika sta prišla do majhne podzemne dvorane.
En: At the end of the corridor, they arrived at a small underground chamber.

Sl: Tam sta našla Gregorja in pogrešano osebo, ki je bila vidno zmedena.
En: There, they found Gregor and the missing person, who appeared visibly confused.

Sl: Izkazalo se je, da je oseba po nesreči odkrila prehod in zašla.
En: It turned out the person had accidentally discovered the passage and wandered off.

Sl: Matej se je nasmehnil in olajšano zavzdihnil.
En: Matej smiled and sighed with relief.

Sl: "Res smo našli skriti del gradu," je dejal.
En: "We really found a hidden part of the castle," he said.

Sl: Gregor je priznal, da je vedel za te tunele, vendar jih ni nikoli razkril.
En: Gregor admitted he knew about these tunnels but had never revealed them.

Sl: Sklenili so pakt, da bodo o vsem tiho.
En: They made a pact to stay silent about the whole affair.

Sl: Po rešenju situacije se je vrnila nova energija na dogodek.
En: After resolving the situation, a new energy returned to the event.

Sl: Matej se je počutil osvobojenega, zdaj je bolj zaupal ljudem okoli sebe.
En: Matej felt liberated, and he now trusted the people around him more.

Sl: Zaklad je ostal skrit, vendar za Mateja, Niko in Gregorja ni bil več delček preteklosti, temveč povezava njihove nove skrivnosti.
En: The treasure remained hidden, but for Matej, Nika, and Gregor, it was no longer a fragment of the past, but a connection to their new secret.
