ji pasakė su šypsena.En: "Well, it seems we’ll have more time to learn about the castle's history today," she said with a smile.Lt: Aistis, vis dar turėdamas atrakinį troškimą, susirinko draugus ir jie nusprendė tyrinėti pilies užkampius.En: Aistis, still driven by a desire for discovery, gathered his friends and they decided to explore the castle's nooks and crannies.Lt: Pirmi kambariai buvo tamsūs ir Atrodė lyg gyvi praeities prisiminimais.En: The first rooms were dark and seemed alive with memories of the past.Lt: Po truputį gruodžio šaltis įsibrovė ir į juos pačius.En: Gradually, the December cold crept into them as well.Lt: Eigos eigoje, Aistis pastebėjo sienoje keistus simbolius.En: During their explorations, Aistis noticed strange symbols on the wall.Lt: Jie atrodė šiek tiek panašūs į senus šeimos herbą, tačiau vienas detalė skyrėsi.En: They somewhat resembled an old family crest, but one detail was different.Lt: "Rokai, šie ženklai primena tavo pavardės simbolius," - pastebėjo jis.En: "Rokas, these marks remind me of the symbols in your surname," he remarked.Lt: Rokas nedelsdamas pasikeitė veidu.En: Rokas’ face immediately changed.Lt: "Tai tik atsitiktinumas," - jis bandė teisintis, tačiau jo balsas nežadėjo tikrumo.En: "It's just a coincidence," he tried to justify, but his voice lacked certainty.Lt: Aistis jautė Rokuko nervingumą, bet pasirinko nekelti papildomų klausimų.En: Aistis sensed Rokas's nervousness but chose not to ask further questions.Lt: Staiga durys už jų užtrenkėsi vėjo gūsiu ir tamsa užpildė kambarį.En: Suddenly, the doors slammed shut behind them due to a gust of wind and darkness filled the room.Lt: Egle nedelsdama žengė prie pirmosios degančios žvakės.En: Eglė immediately stepped toward the first burning candle.Lt: Jų šviesa apšvietė įspūdingą detalę -

Christmas Short Works Collection 2017 by Various ciesse This year's Christmas collection of short stories, poems and non-fiction features 29 readings in English, Lithuanian, Spanish and Romanian. Unstoppable Farce; The Mitch Maloney Story Mitch Maloney Unstoppable Farce tells the story of "Mr. Mirth" himself, in his own words, beginning with forty-five years of what might generously be described as a wasted existence before he decided to become the most successful FC (Famous Comedian) of all time. He describes how he created his Lithuanian Chupacabra alter ego, honed his signature Cheezy Pleezers bit, and became a viral sensation on Qlip Qlop and H!jnx. He dishes the dirt on touring with Hannah Gadsby and Dave Chapelle, what really went down behind the scenes at SNL, and what it was like to be the first (and last) comedian to play the Acropolis. And that's just the beginning. This audio production was made possible by the Seventh Reformed Church of Latter Day Witnesses. Audio engineering by Darbeliostriumopolatrius Macodivetticus. Theme music: "Ouchy" written and performed by Muddy Mitch with Sweet Tooth Delacroix. Monssun Monssun Monssun - Simonas Gudavičius is a Lithuanian musician & producer coming from Siauliai/Vilnius.
