En un racó encantador de Barcelona, el Parc Güell es despertava sota la llum d'hivern.

In a charming corner of Barcelona, Parc Güell awoke under the winter light.

Els colors de les rajoles brillaven, fent ballar la vista, mentre els arbres despullats lluïen les seves branques nues.

The colors of the tiles shone, delighting the eyes, while the bare trees displayed their naked branches.

L'ambient estava ple d'una energia especial: era Carnaval.

The atmosphere was filled with a special energy: it was Carnaval.

Martí caminava pel parc, buscant alguna cosa sense saber ben bé què.

Martí walked through the park, searching for something without knowing quite what.

Era un dia fresc, i les màscares del Carnaval afegien un toc màgic.

It was a crisp day, and the Carnaval masks added a magical touch.

De sobte, va notar alguna cosa als seus peus.

Suddenly, he noticed something at his feet.

Una carta vella, gairebé amagada sota un banc.

An old letter, nearly hidden under a bench.

El sobre estava estripat, però una mica d'escrit encara es podia veure.

The envelope was torn, but some of the writing was still visible.

Martí es va inclinar i la va recollir, llegint el missatge críptic: "Segueix el drac fins al lloc on el temps s'atura."

Martí bent down and picked it up, reading the cryptic message: "Follow the dragon to the place where time stands still."

Els ulls de Martí es van il·luminar.

Martí's eyes lit up.

La seva curiositat es va despertar, un anhel per aventura que sempre havia guardat.

His curiosity was awakened, a yearning for adventure he had always harbored.

Aquella nota semblava una promesa de misteri.

That note seemed like a promise of mystery.

Sense perdre temps, va córrer per trobar Júlia i Laia.

Without wasting time, he ran to find Júlia and Laia.

Júlia, amb el seu sentit pràctic, va alçar una cella escèptica.

Júlia, with her practical sense, raised a skeptical eyebrow.

"És només una broma de Carnaval," va dir ella.

"It’s just a Carnaval prank," she said.

Però Martí no estava convençut.

But Martí was not convinced.

"Laia!" va cridar Martí mentre trobava la seva amiga prop del pavelló de les columnes.

"Laia!" Martí called as he found his friend near the column pavilion.

Aquesta, amb la seva presència enigmàtica, va somriure lleument.

She, with her enigmatic presence, smiled slightly.

"Podria ser una pista interessant," va murmurar, les seves paraules només audibles per Martí.

"It could be an interesting clue," she murmured, her words only audible to Martí.

Amb el temps, Martí va decidir seguir les pistes, amb Laia al seu costat, tot i les reserves de Júlia.

Over time, Martí decided to follow the clues with Laia by his side, despite Júlia's reservations.

Van començar per buscar el "drac".

They began by looking for the "dragon."

La famosa salamandra de mosaic, el guardià vibrant del parc, va ser el seu primer punt d'inici.

The famous mosaic lizard, the vibrant guardian of the park, was their first starting point.

Martí estudiava les formes fascinants, mentre Laia suggeria possibles direccions.

Martí studied the fascinating shapes while Laia suggested possible directions.

Cada pista semblava portar-los a un camí equivocat, però Martí no va defallir.

Each clue seemed to lead them down a wrong path, but Martí did not give up.

Júlia els observava, a vegades fent sorna, però sense apartar-se del tot.

Júlia watched them, sometimes making sarcastic remarks, but never completely withdrawing.

Finalment, la nit del Carnaval va arribar, plena de música i ball.

Finally, the night of Carnaval arrived, full of music and dance.

Martí, amb un vestit i una màscara ataronjats, va sentir l'empenta de resoldre el misteri.

Martí, with an orange costume and mask, felt the drive to solve the mystery.

Va ser durant aquella festa, sota les rialles i la xerinola, que Laia va assenyalar un racó amagat entre arbustos, una petita porta de roca que semblava no pertànyer a cap plànol.

It was during that party, under the laughter and revelry, that Laia pointed to a hidden corner among bushes, a small rock door that seemed to belong to no map.

La nota feia referència a un "lloc on el temps s'atura..." i Martí, imbuït de determinació, va obrir lentament aquella porta.

The note referenced a "place where time stands still..." and Martí, imbued with determination, slowly opened that door.

Davant d'ells, una petita cavitat amagava una capsa antiga.

Before them, a small cavity hid an old box.

Una càpsula del temps, plena de records d'altres Carnavals: màscares gastades, plomes descolorides, notes manuscrites que parlaven d'amistats i rialles passades.

A time capsule, filled with memories of past Carnavals: worn masks, faded feathers, handwritten notes that spoke of friendships and past laughter.

Tots tres van seure a la vora, deixant que les històries dels desconeguts omplissin l'aire d'una calidesa inesperada.

The three of them sat by the edge, letting the stories of strangers fill the air with an unexpected warmth.

Martí va veure com l'escepticisme de Júlia es transformava en comprensió.

Martí saw how Júlia's skepticism transformed into understanding.

El valuós tresor connectava el passat amb el present, un pont que ja no sentia imaginari.

The valuable treasure connected the past with the present, a bridge that no longer felt imaginary.

Aquell hivern, Martí va aprendre a valorar les perspectives diferents.

That winter, Martí learned to value different perspectives.

Potser el món no estava ple de misteris ocults a cada racó, però de tant en tant, la vida podia regalar un enigma que valia la pena compartir.

Perhaps the world wasn't full of hidden mysteries at every corner, but every now and then, life could offer an enigma worth sharing.
