"It's important to stay safe in the marked areas."Af: Pieter het egter 'n ander plan gehad. Hy het gehoop om iets unieks, iets histories belangrik te ontdek.En: However, Pieter had a different plan. He hoped to discover something unique, something historically significant.Af: “Kom Elize, ons moet daardie donker hoek daar gaan verken,” het hy gefluister en na 'n afgeleë deel van die tempel gewys.En: "Come Elize, we need to explore that dark corner there," he whispered, pointing to a secluded part of the temple.Af: Elize het geaarsel. “Dit is buite ons toelaatbare gebied,” het sy bekommerd gesê.En: Elize hesitated. "That's outside our allowable area," she said worriedly.Af: “Net een vinnige kyk,” het Pieter oortuigend gesê.En: "Just one quick look," Pieter said persuasively.Af: Teen haar beter oordeel het Elize ingestem en saam met Pieter na die afgesonderde area gesluip.En: Against her better judgment, Elize agreed and sneaked along with Pieter to the isolated area.Af: Hulle het versigtig oor die sandige grond geloop, hul skoene het sagte krakende geluide gemaak.En: They walked carefully over the sandy ground, their shoes making soft crunching noises.Af: Opeens het Pieter 'n klein opening in die muur opgemerk.En: Suddenly, Pieter noticed a small opening in the wall.Af: “Hier! Dit is 'n versteekte ingang,” het Pieter opgewonde gesê.En: "Here! It's a hidden entrance," Pieter said excitedly.Af: Met Elize se hulp het Pieter die ingang nagegaan.En: With Elize's help, Pieter examined the entrance.Af: Dit het gelei na 'n donker gang en aan die einde van die tonnel was daar 'n ou kamer vol inskripsies en 'n geheimsinnige artefak.En: It led to a dark passage, and at the end of the tunnel was an ancient room full of inscriptions and a mysterious artifact.Af: Die kamer het gelyk soos 'n historiese skatkamer.En: The room looked like a historic treasure chamber.Af: “Elize, kyk net!” het Pieter uitgeroep. “Dit is ongelooflik.”En: "Elize, just look at this!" Pieter exclaimed. "This is incredible."Af: Elize het met verbasing na die artefak gestaar. “Ons moet dit aan die onderwyser wys,” het sy beslis gesê.En: Elize stared at the artifact in amazement. "We must show this to the teacher," she said decisively.Af: Hulle het die pad teruggevind en aan die onderwyser oor hul ontdekking vertel.En: They found their way back and told the teacher about their discovery.
