Story Transcript:

Lv: Kazlēn, ozolu lapas krita zeltainos paklājos, vējš čukstēja stāstus senajā mācību institūtā.
En: Kazlēn, oak leaves fell in golden carpets, the wind whispered stories in the ancient educational institute.

Lv: Internāts, vecs kā pils ar sūnām klātām sienām, gaidīja Halovīna nakti.
En: The boarding school, as old as a castle with moss-covered walls, awaited Halloween night.

Lv: Tās bija dēkas pilnas dienas, kad Kaspars, ziņkārīgs piecpadsmitgadnieks ar aizrautību piedzīvojumiem, sapņoja par noslēpumu atrisināšanu.
En: Those were adventurous days when Kaspars, a curious fifteen-year-old with a passion for adventures, dreamed of solving mysteries.

Lv: Kādu oktobra rītu, dažas dienas pirms Halovīna, skola šalkot sāka par dīvainu notikumu.
En: One October morning, a few days before Halloween, the school began to buzz about a strange event.

Lv: Kāds skolnieks pazuda no kopmītnes, bet vadība to sauca par nejaušu pārpratumu.
En: A student disappeared from the dormitory, but the administration called it a mere misunderstanding.

Lv: Kaspars redzēja iespēju pierādīt uguni sirdī.
En: Kaspars saw an opportunity to prove the fire in his heart.

Lv: Viņa draudzene Līga bija skeptiska: "Kaspar, vai tu tiešām domā, ka tev tas ir pa spēkam?
En: His friend Līga was skeptical: "Kaspars, do you really think you can handle it?"

Lv: " Kaspars smaidot, dedzis brīnumiem, devās pie Andra, skolas prefekta.
En: Kaspars, smiling, burning with wonder, went to Andris, the school prefect.

Lv: "Es zinu, ka tu vari palīdzēt," sacīja Kaspars, bet Andris vēlējās saglabāt autoritāti: "Domāju, ka tas ir tikai pārpratums.
En: "I know you can help," said Kaspars, but Andris wished to maintain authority: "I think it's just a misunderstanding."

Lv: " Bet Andris klusi apbrīnoja Kaspara drosmi.
En: But Andris secretly admired Kaspars' courage.

Lv: Tad Kaspars nolēma pats risināt noslēpumu.
En: Then Kaspars decided to solve the mystery himself.

Lv: Nakts laikā viņš slepus staigāja pa tumšajiem gaiteņiem, izvairoties no apsargu acīm.
En: During the night, he secretly walked through the dark corridors, avoiding the eyes of the guards.

Lv: Viņu vadīja sajūta kā sāpju dzelonis, kas aicina uz atklāsmi.
En: He was guided by a feeling like a thorn of pain calling for a revelation.

Lv: Reiz viņš soļoja pa senatnīgajām, čīkstošajām grīdas dēlēm bibliotēkā, kad nejauši uzdūrās uz veco grāmatu plauktu.
En: Once he was walking on the ancient, creaking floorboards in the library when he accidentally stumbled upon an old bookshelf.

Lv: Atbīdījis to, atrada slepenu eju.
En: Moving it aside, he found a secret passage.

Lv: Droši sekojot tai, Kaspars nonāca noslēpumainā kamerā.
En: Following it confidently, Kaspars ended up in a mysterious chamber.

Lv: Un tur – izbiedēts, bet vesels – atradās pazudušais skolnieks.
En: And there – frightened but safe – was the missing student.

Lv: Viņš bija nejauši ieslēdzies, aktivizējot mehānismu.
En: He had accidentally locked himself in, activating a mechanism.

Lv: Kaspars palīdzēja viņam izkļūt, un abi devās atpakaļ, triumfējoši atvēruši noslēpuma dūmus.
En: Kaspars helped him out, and they both returned, triumphantly unraveling the mystery.

Lv: Zināšana par Kaspara drosmi uzreiz pārņēma skolu.
En: The knowledge of Kaspars' bravery quickly spread through the...
