rokah.En: Matevž leads the way with maps in hand.Sl: Ko dosežejo središče jezera, se ustavijo na debeli ledu.En: When they reach the center of the lake, they stop on the thick ice.Sl: Kmalu opazijo

"Look," whispers Anja.Sl: »Tam je.En: "There it is."Sl: «Matevž, kljubiri opozorilom, se spusti na kolena.En: Matevž, despite warnings, drops to his knees.Sl: »Moramo biti pazljivi, a moramo se približati,« reče.En: "We must be careful, but we need to get closer," he says.Sl: Led nevarno poka in odpira razpoke.En: The ice ominously cracks and opens crevices.Sl: Srce bije hitreje vsem trem.En: All three hearts beat faster.Sl: Gregor in Anja se zadržujeta malo bolj zadaj, pripravljena pomagati Matevžu, če bo potrebno.En: Gregor and Anja hold back a little, ready to help Matevž if needed.Sl: Svetloba je vedno močnejša.En: The light grows stronger.Sl: Matevž pritisne obraz bližje ledu in zagleda obris nečesa.En: Matevž presses his face closer to the ice and sees the outline of something.Sl: »To je… relikvija,« razloži, glas mu trepeče od vznemirjenja.En: "It's... a relic," he explains, his voice trembling with excitement.Sl: »Kako jo bomo izvlekli?En: "How will we get it out?"Sl: « vpraša Anja.En: asks Anja.Sl: Po pazljivem načrtovanju uspejo s skupnimi močmi previdno izvleči starodavno relikvijo iz ledu.En: After careful planning, they manage with combined efforts to cautiously extract the ancient relic from the ice.Sl: Z daljnogledom opazijo nekaj izrezljanega, podobno simbolu, ki so ga našli v starodavnih knjigah.En: With a telescope, they notice something carved, similar to a symbol they found in ancient books.Sl: Legenda je resnična.En: The legend is true.Sl: Ko se previdno vrnejo na trden teren, je Matevž prežet z novo energijo.En: When they carefully return to solid ground, Matevž is filled with new energy.Sl: Gregor in Anja se smejeta, srečni, da so bili del tega odkritja.En: Gregor and Anja laugh, happy to have been part of this discovery.Sl: »Rekel sem vam, da svetloba ni le legenda,« ponosno izgovori Matevž.En: "I told you the light wasn't just a legend," Matevž proudly declares.Sl: Ob vrnitvi delijo svoje odkritje s
