En: The warm summer sun was shining as Aino and Eero stepped off the ferry at Suomenlinna. Fi: Suomenlinna oli täynnä historiaa, ja Ainoa kiehtoi sen menneisyys. En: Suomenlinna was full of history, and Aino was fascinated by its past. Fi: Vanhojen muurien varjossa hän kuvitteli, millaista elämä saattoi olla linnoituksen kulta-aikoina. En: In the shadows of the old walls, she imagined what life might have been like during the fortress's golden age. Fi: Eero, Aino vierellään, katseli kiinnostuneena rakennusten rapistuneita seinämiä.

En: \"We should stick with the group,\" Aino replied cautiously, but her curiosity was piqued. Fi: Hän halusi oppia lisää linnoituksen salaisista kammioista ja piilotetuista käytävistä. En: She wanted to learn more about the fortress's secret chambers and hidden passages. Fi: Mutta Eeron ideat olivat usein hieman liian vaarallisia.
