Story Transcript:

Nb: Skyene hadde allerede begynt å forandre himmelen.
En: The clouds had already begun changing the sky.

Nb: Preikestolen, den majestetiske klippen over Lysefjorden, stod i skarp kontrast til de mørke, truende skyene.
En: The Pulpit Rock, the majestic cliff over the Lysefjord, stood in stark contrast to the dark, threatening clouds.

Nb: Sivert og Katrine begynte sin tur tidlig på morgenen.
En: Sivert and Katrine started their hike early in the morning.

Nb: De ønsket å nyte høstens skjønnhet, men været hadde en annen plan.
En: They wanted to enjoy the beauty of autumn, but the weather had other plans.

Nb: Sivert gikk foran.
En: Sivert walked ahead.

Nb: Han var alltid på jakt etter et nytt eventyr, en ny utfordring.
En: He was always on the lookout for a new adventure, a new challenge.

Nb: "Kom igjen, Katrine!
En: "Come on, Katrine!

Nb: Vi må rekke toppen før stormen kommer," ropte han over skulderen.
En: We need to reach the top before the storm hits," he called over his shoulder.

Nb: Katrine var skeptisk.
En: Katrine was skeptical.

Nb: "Været ser dårlig ut, Sivert.
En: "The weather looks bad, Sivert.

Nb: Kanskje vi burde snu," svarte hun.
En: Maybe we should turn back," she replied.

Nb: Hun hadde alltid vært den forsiktige, den som så etter sikkerhet mer enn spenning.
En: She was always the cautious one, valuing safety over excitement.

Nb: De fortsatte å gå.
En: They continued walking.

Nb: Vinden begynte å tilta, og sivet på bakken svaiet voldsomt.
En: The wind began to pick up, and the grass on the ground swayed violently.

Nb: "Bare litt til," sa Sivert optimistisk.
En: "Just a little further," said Sivert optimistically.

Nb: Katrine nølte men fulgte etter.
En: Katrine hesitated but followed.

Nb: Hun ønsket ikke å la Sivert gå alene, men hennes indre stemmer varslet om fare.
En: She didn't want to let Sivert go alone, but her inner voice warned of danger.

Nb: Som de nærmet seg toppen, hørte de braket fra torden i det fjerne.
En: As they approached the top, they heard the rumble of thunder in the distance.

Nb: Sivert stoppet opp et øyeblikk.
En: Sivert paused for a moment.

Nb: "Skal vi snu?"
En: "Should we turn back?"

Nb: spurte han nå litt usikker.
En: he asked now a bit unsure.

Nb: Men stormen hadde allerede nådd dem.
En: But the storm had already caught up with them.

Nb: Regnet pisket ansiktene deres, og vinden blåste dem nesten av stien.
En: The rain lashed at their faces, and the wind nearly blew them off the path.

Nb: Det var for sent å vende om.
En: It was too late to turn back.

Nb: "Katrine, der borte!"
En: "Katrine, over there!"

Nb: ropte Sivert, med en finger pekende mot en liten hule i fjellveggen.
En: Sivert shouted, pointing towards a small cave in the rock face.

Nb: De løp mot det eneste tilfluktsstedet som var i sikte.
En: They ran toward the only shelter in sight.

Nb: Inne i hulen hev de etter pusten.
En: Inside the cave, they gasped for breath.

Nb: Huleinngangen ga dem ly fra værgudens vrede.
En: The cave entrance shielded them from the wrath of the weather gods.

Nb: Der, i den kalde, våte hulen, satt de sammen.
En: There, in the cold,...
