Story Transcript:
Sv: Emil drog upp sin halsduk lite högre och blickade ut över den isiga tundran.
En: Emil pulled his scarf a bit higher and gazed out over the icy tundra.
Sv: Bortom den lilla stationen fanns det ett fåtal bebyggelser, och mitt ibland dem, en liten butik.
En: Beyond the small station, there were a few settlements, and among them, a little store.
Sv: Butiken var gammal och slitn men en färggrann fyr i det bleka landskapet, fylld med saker som skulle kunna bli livsviktiga för vintern som kom.
En: The store was old and worn but a colorful beacon in the pale landscape, filled with things that could be vital for the coming winter.
Sv: Det var höst, och vinden rev i kinderna.
En: It was autumn, and the wind bit at cheeks.
Sv: Emil hade bott här i flera månader, men sakta började han känna av den ökande isoleringen.
En: Emil had lived here for several months, but slowly he began to feel the increasing isolation.
Sv: Snart skulle de vara helt beroende av det lager de kunde bygga upp nu.
En: Soon they would be entirely dependent on the stock they could build up now.
Sv: Sofia och Johan, de enda andra forskarna vid utposten, stod redan vid butikens ingång.
En: Sofia and Johan, the only other researchers at the outpost, were already standing at the store's entrance.
Sv: De hälsade varmt när Emil kom fram, deras andetag virvlade runt dem som ett resultat av den kallfrusna luften.
En: They greeted warmly as Emil approached, their breaths swirling around them as a result of the frigid air.
Sv: Inne i butiken värmde små kaminer upp det lilla rummet.
En: Inside the store, small stoves warmed up the little room.
Sv: Hyllorna var inte fyllda, utbudet sinade på grund av en försening i leveranserna.
En: The shelves were not filled; the supply was dwindling due to a delay in deliveries.
Sv: Sofia studerade listan hon hade i handen.
En: Sofia studied the list she had in her hand.
Sv: "Vi har inte mycket tid innan allting är borta," sa hon och kastade en blick upp mot hyllorna där varorna snabbt försvann.
En: "We don't have much time before everything is gone," she said, casting a glance up at the shelves where the goods were quickly disappearing.
Sv: Johan nickade instämmande.
En: Johan nodded in agreement.
Sv: "Vi måste vara smarta med vad vi väljer."
En: "We have to be smart about what we choose."
Sv: Emil började gå runt i butiken.
En: Emil started walking around the store.
Sv: Varorna var få, och behovet stort.
En: The goods were few, and the need was great.
Sv: Han plockade upp en av de sista värmepåsarna och kände tyngden i sin hand.
En: He picked up one of the last heat packs and felt the weight in his hand.
Sv: Den skulle komma bra till pass under kalla nätter när temperaturen sjönk till botten av termometern.
En: It would come in handy during cold nights when temperatures dropped to the bottom of the thermometer.
Sv: "Vi kanske borde köpa tillsammans," föreslog Johan.
En: "Maybe we should buy together," suggested Johan.
Sv: "Om vi delar på saker och ting kan vi klara oss bättre."
En: "If we share things, we can get by better."
Sv: Efter lite diskussioner kom de överens.
En: After some discussions, they agreed.
Sv: De bestämde vad som var viktigast, och köpte noggrant det som räckte till alla.
En: They determined what was most i
