Story Transcript:
Da: Kronborg Slot stod majestætisk ved kysten, pakket ind i et tæppe af sne.
En: Kronborg Slot stood majestically by the coast, wrapped in a blanket of snow.
Da: Vinteren var barsk, og vinden blæste kold mod de tykke mure.
En: Winter was harsh, and the wind blew cold against the thick walls.
Da: Indenfor arbejdede Freja, Johan og Kasper på at renovere slottet.
En: Inside, Freja, Johan, and Kasper were working on renovating the castle.
Da: Freja, en ambitiøs arkitekt, havde en klar drøm: at færdiggøre renoveringen inden jul, så slottet kunne skinne i al sin pragt under de festlige dage.
En: Freja, an ambitious architect, had a clear dream: to complete the renovation before Christmas so the castle could shine in all its glory during the festive days.
Da: Freja stod med blåtegningerne i hånden.
En: Freja stood with the blueprints in her hand.
Da: "Vi har travlt," sagde hun bestemt.
En: "We are busy," she said decisively.
Da: Hendes stemme ekkoede i de store haller.
En: Her voice echoed in the large halls.
Da: "Men vi skal gøre det rigtigt, vi må ikke gå på kompromis med slotsets historie."
En: "But we must do it right; we must not compromise on the castle's history."
Da: Johan, en dygtig håndværker, nikkede.
En: Johan, a skilled craftsman, nodded.
Da: Han havde arbejdet på mange gamle bygninger før.
En: He had worked on many old buildings before.
Da: "Det er koldt," svarede han, mens han studerede de gamle stenvægge.
En: "It's cold," he replied, while studying the old stone walls.
Da: "Vinteren gør det svært med cement og maling."
En: "Winter makes it difficult with cement and paint."
Da: Kasper, den unge lærling, lyttede opmærksomt.
En: Kasper, the young apprentice, listened attentively.
Da: Han var fuld af beundring overfor Johan og ønskede at vise sig værdig.
En: He was full of admiration for Johan and wanted to prove himself worthy.
Da: "Jeg kan hjælpe med at skrabe sneen væk!"
En: "I can help scrape away the snow!"
Da: sagde han ivrigt.
En: he said eagerly.
Da: Dagene gik, og vintervejret blev værre.
En: The days passed, and the winter weather worsened.
Da: Sneen faldt tungt, og vindene blæste hårdt.
En: Snow fell heavily, and the winds blew hard.
Da: Freja begyndte at føle presset.
En: Freja began to feel the pressure.
Da: Hun vidste, at de skulle arbejde hurtigt, men Johan mindede hende konstant om, hvor vigtigt det var at gøre tingene ordentligt.
En: She knew they had to work quickly, but Johan constantly reminded her how important it was to do things properly.
Da: "Vi kan ikke skynde os," sagde han en dag med en alvorlig stemme.
En: "We can't rush," he said one day with a serious voice.
Da: Juleaften nærmede sig.
En: Christmas Eve drew near.
Da: En nat ramte en voldsom snestorm.
En: One night, a violent snowstorm hit.
Da: Freja kiggede ud af vinduet og så sneflagerne hvirvle voldsomt omkring slottets tårne.
En: Freja looked out the window and saw the snowflakes swirling violently around the castle towers.
Da: Det gik op for hende, hvor farligt det ville være at fortsætte arbejdet under disse forhold.
En: She realized how dangerous it would be to continue working under these conditions.
Da: "Vi kan ikke fortsætte.
