Sv: "Jag vet," svarade Elin.
En: "I know," Elin replied.

Sv: "Men jag tror verkligen på min teori."

Sv: Sofia, som älskade att berätta om forntida nordisk mytologi, kom springande mot dem.
En: Sofia, who loved to talk about ancient Norse mythology, came running towards them.

Sv: "Så många historier om denna plats," sa hon med glittrande ögon.

Sv: "Kan vi prova något nytt?
En: "Can we try something new?

Sv: Bara en liten utgrävning i ett mindre undersökt område?"
En: Just a small excavation in a less explored area?"

Sv: Nils suckade och tänkte en stund.
En: Nils sighed and thought for a moment.

Sv: "Det är ditt projekt, Elin.
En: "It's your project, Elin.

Sv: Plötsligt stötte Elins spade på något hårt.

Sv: Hjärtat slog snabbare.
En: Her heart beat faster.
