En: Castelul Bran stands imposingly in the Carpathian Mountains, with its gray walls and tall towers, surrounded by blossoming spring flowers.

Ro: Aerul era proaspăt, purtând aroma creșterii noi și ecourile îndepărtate ale sărbătorilor de Paște se auzeau vag.

Ro: "Îl avem!
En: "We've got it!"

Ro: " a strigat Ioan, dar bucuria i-a fost umbrită de starea manuscrisului.

In the name of the world, we grew and grew up in the deserts of the past.

Yuan, an historic dedicate, associated with the castle of time in Minia Zacea. He was moved by the moon. He liked to study the legends of the Cetazians. Tottush, a very accepting explanation of the supernatural, a part of him hopes to discover something extraordinary. Manusri Solvei, who disappeared. Strigana, a priest and a colleague of Yuan. He surely had the courage to listen to him. I don't think so. The answer to Yuan was opposite. He had to explain the logic. The castle was illuminated by the tourists of Pashte, which made it difficult for them to come. Yuan had to be strict with visitors to investigate the library. He believed that if he was rational, he would have a solution.

For the absurdity of the library, a friend of Rado, an old colleague, had used the secret passage. In the meantime, he had taken his heart away. The teacher, Yuan decided to explore this possibility. Manusri Solvei was hiding in the ruins of the castle. In the Cetazians, he spent a long time in the desert, fishing for a year and a half. Yuan was able to enter a corridor in the desert, waiting for him to be able to enter. For the absurdity of the castle, he was able to enter a corridor in the desert. When he reached the capital, he spent a small part of his time in the desert. In the meantime, he spent a long time in the desert, a manusri Solvei. We have him. Yuan was strict,

but Bukuria was forced to be a manusri Solvei. He was able to enter the desert, and many pages were invisible. With all this, he was able to express his stories to the castle. Yuan felt a mixture of victories and challenges. But, for the first time, he lived in the game with a lot of knowledge. A mystery doesn't have a voice to explain to you, and you are able to focus on him. In the meantime, Yuan was able to express his stories to the castle, and with a new perspective on the inexplicable paths. The castle's adventure has the spirit of the explorer and the desire to see what was visible. There were many secrets about the growth of the city. Let's take another listen.
