En: Eero's pen halted. Fi: Hän nosti katseensa ja näki kevätauringon valaisevan muinaiset kivirakennelmat. En: He lifted his gaze and saw the spring sun illuminating the ancient stone structures. Fi: Kevät oli saapunut, ja Etelä-Pohjanmaan ikivanhat rauniot heräsivät eloon. En: Spring had arrived, and the age-old ruins of Etelä-Pohjanmaa had come to life. Fi: Tuuli ja Miika seisoivat hänen vieressään, tarkastellen suurta, kivistä kehää peittävää sammalta. En: Tuuli and Miika stood beside him, examining the moss covering the large, stone ring.
