Source text - Turkish
Diğer çikolata müzelerinden farklı olarak kafe-müze konseptini tercih eden Museo de Chocolate (Çikolata Müzesi), Küba’nın başkenti Havana’da çikolata tutkunlarını ağırlıyor. 2003 yılından bu yana hizmet veren bu müze, bu sıcak yaz günlerinde bile sıcak çikolata içmek isteyenlerin uğrak yeri oluyor.

Amfi mutlaka görülmeli! 17. yüzyılda tıp öğrencileri burada otopsi yapıyor ve insan anatomisini keşfediyorlardı. Burayı gördüğümde hayran kaldım. Amfideki koltuklar o kadar rahatsız ki öğrencilerin ders sırasında uyuyakalması imkansız. Bolonya'yı gezerken birçok galeri ve müzeyi ücretsiz ziyaret edebilirsiniz. Zaman kısıtlı olduğu için ben ilgimi çekenleri ziyaret etmeyi tercih ettim. Müzik Müzesi, Giorgio Morandi Müzesi, Ulusal Sanat Müzesi ve modern sanat müzesi tercihlerim arasındaydı.
Translation - English
Amphitheatre is a must see. Students of medicine would carry out autopsy and learn about human anatomy here in the 17th century. I was amazed when I saw the place. Seats of the theatre are so uncomfortable that it is impossible for the students to fall asleep during the course. You can see many galleries and museums for free as you see around Bologna. I prefer to visit those appealing to my interests because time is at stake. Music Museum, Giorgio Morandi Museum, National Art Museum and modern art museum are but some of my preferences.

The Provincial Army of the eastern realms (populary known as the "Ironcaps" after their distinctive headgear) is the first semi-professional army after the regional militiamen. Unlike the militias, these troops receive daily training, regular pay, and are stationed often far from their homes. Their armour is cheap if reasonably effective, and their weapons are hard-wearing and tempered from constant use against rebels and bandits.

Halberds are long polearms incorporating elements of both the pike and the poleaxe. Accordingly this gives the halberdier a variety of options when fighting infantry or cavalry, and they are equally effective against both.
Translation - Turkish
Doğu diyarlarının Vilayet Ordusu (belirgin başlıklarından dolayı halk arasında "Demir Başlıklılar" olarak bilinir), mahalli yedek erlerden sonraki ilk yarı-profesyonel ordudur. Yedek erlerden farklı olarak, bu birlikler günlük talim görüp düzenli maaş alırlar ve genellikle evlerinden çok uzakta görevlendirilirler. Hasbelkader etkili olan zırhları ucuzdur; silahları sağlam ve de isyancılar ve haydutlara karşı sürekli kullanımdan ötürü sertleştirilmiştir.

Baltalı kargılar, kargı ile kasap baltası gibi unsurların bir arada bulunduğu uzun sırıklı silahlardır. Bu özellik sayesinde, baltalı kargı kullanıcısı piyadeler veya süvarilerle savaşırken çok çeşitli seçeneklere sahip olur ve bu silahlar her ikisine karşı da eşit ölçüde etkilidir.
English to Turkish: Mage's Blood

Source text - English
What happens when the soul leaves the body? Paradise or Damnation? Rebirth? Oneness with God? Or Oblivion? The faiths of mankind have made a case for each and many other variants. But we of the Ordo Costruo teach this: that when the soul detaches from the body it remains here in Urte for a time, a disembodied ghost. Whether it eventually dissipates or passes to some other place, we can only speculate. But what we do know is that a mage may commune with such ghosts and gain access to all that those spirits perceive. There are millions of such spirits wandering the land. By communing with them, it is theoretically possible to be aware of almost everything that is happening on Urte.
Translation - Turkish
Ruh bedeni terk ettiğinde ne olur? Cennet ya da Cehennem... Yeniden doğuş... Tanrı ile bütünleşmek... Unutmak... İnsanlığın inanışları bütün olasılıklar için birer tablo çizmiş. Ancak Ordo Costruolular olarak bizler şu öğretiyi benimsedik; ruh bedenden ayrıldığında bedensiz bir hayalet olarak bir müddet burada Urte'de kalır. Nihayet dağılıp başka bir yere göçer mi, bunu sadece tahmin edebiliriz. Fakat şunu biliyoruz; bir büyücü bu hayaletlerle konuşabilir ve bu ruhların algıladığı her şeye erişebilir. Topraklarda bu şekilde dolaşan milyonlarca ruh var. Onlarla konuşarak Urte'de olan biten her şeyden haberdar olmak teorik olarak mümkündür.
