SGA: translation of Zelenka's letter home...

_{Na dne more mame “failsafe” mechanismus. Obrovskou silou vytrhl kotvu mesta ze dna oceanu.}

There is a “failsafe” mechanism on the ocean floor. With big power it ripped off the anchor of town from the bottom of ocean.

(FLASHBACK TO “RISING PART 2”. We see the city on the ocean floor.)

_{My jsme ... Zhrozili jsme ... jsme ... Zhrozili jsme se. Neuveritelny. Co se to deje, a ten hluk. Cele mesto se traslo jako pri zemetreseni. To bylo neco neuveritelnyho. A najednou se hneme.}

We were ... we were afraid ... were ... were ... we were afraid. Unbelievable. What is happening, and that noise. The whole city was trembling as if it was an earthquake. That was something unbelievable.

(The city begins to rise up through the water.)

_{Cele mesto stoupalo, stoupalo nahoru, nahoru k hladine. To, to bylo neco neuveritelnyho.}

And suddenly we were moving. All the city was ascending, ascending up, up to the surface. That, that was something unbelievable.

(The city breaks the surface of the ocean.)

_{A veze prorazily hladinu a vyjeli jsme nahoru, nahoru. Vody, vlny vodopady. Vsechno tece z tech vejsek a vystrelili jsme nahoru uplne navrsek a najednou Slunce.}

And the towers punched through the surface of water and we were going up, up. Waters, waves, waterfalls. All that water was falling down from that heights and we were shot up, absolutely on the top, and suddenly Sun.

(The city clears the ocean and settles on the surface. In the recording, Zelenka’s face mirrors the amazement that everyone felt at the time.)

_{Slunicko proste proudilo do vsech voken.}

Sun was simply shining to all windows.

(In the flashback, a small tidal wave moves away from the city.)

_{Dosmrti, dosmrti na to nezapomenu.}

I will remember it to my death.
