Speaker 3: Away from the hustle and bustle of the city, he
Speaker 3: began to doubt whether returning to his hometown was the
Speaker 3: right decision.
Speaker 1: Han beel kesisen olivan oskeltak cepaine e it eempine.
Speaker 3: He feared it would be a step backward, not forward.

Speaker 3: But something inside him, in that left hand side of
Speaker 3: judgment circle pulls him back to Vrauco and his friends.
Speaker 1: Here al kovat Puhua kiva men.
Speaker 3: They begin to speak more intently.
Speaker 1: Mikhail Munta Olevansa exuxis sa ipati Etoen.

Speaker 1: Kun Ilda Kulu tuli lusi Luetkosvoil.
Speaker 3: As the evening goes on, the fire creates silhouettes on
Speaker 3: the faces. Mikhael il Camiao begins to ponder.
Speaker 1: Han on Eka itsutyota and lean Kouka kun Vasta sat
Speaker 1: ovatkin olet Ivan Hannen, it is sankai k and aika.
Speaker 3: Perhaps he has been searching too far, when the answers
Speaker 3: have been right in front of him all along.

Speaker 1: la tuntevatant.
Speaker 3: His roots, his childhood landscapes the people who truly.

Speaker 3: He asks Ivo if he could help with preparing the
Speaker 3: gallery's next exhibition some A.
Speaker 1: La han Voita Sleta, Lua vuten Sa Yoka ol yah

Speaker 3: been buried under the city's rush.
