En: Maarja stepped onto the narrow streets of Tallinn's Old Town. Et: Suvi oli täies hoos. En: Summer was in full swing. Et: Väikesed kohvikud olid inimesi täis ning turud olid viljade ja lillede lõhnast pungil. En: Small cafés were full of people, and the markets were overflowing with the scent of fruits and flowers. Et: Maarja oli aastaid eemal olnud. En: Maarja had been away for years. Et: Seekordne reis oli eriline - ta tuli koju Jaanipäeva tähistama.

Et: hüüdis Leena, tema vanaema, rõõmsalt.… ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/fluentfiction-estonian-6698358/episodes/home-fires-maarja-s-journey-to-rediscovering-her-roots/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/fluentfiction-estonian-6698358/home-fires-maarja-s-journey-to-rediscovering-her-roots.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
