Down below, the lordling called out suddenly, “Who goes there?” Will heard uncertainty in the challenge. He stopped climbing; he listened; he watched.
下方突然傳來年輕貴族的喊叫。“誰在那里？”威爾在他的恫嚇中聽出了不安，便停止爬行，凝神諦聽，仔細觀察。
The woods gave answer: the rustle of leaves, the icy rush of the stream, a distant hoot of a snow owl.
森林給了他答案：樹葉沙沙作響，寒溪潺潺脈動，遠方傳來雪梟的吶喊。
The Others made no sound.
異鬼無聲無息地出現。
Will saw movement from the corner of his eye. Pale shapes gliding through the wood. He turned his head, glimpsed a white shadow in the darkness. Then it was gone. Branches stirred gently in the wind, scratching at one another with wooden fingers. Will opened his mouth to call down a warning, and the words seemed to freeze in his throat. Perhaps he was wrong. Perhaps it had only been a bird, a reflection on the snow, some trick of the moonlight. What had he seen, after all?
威爾的眼角余光瞄到白色身影穿過樹林。他轉過頭，看見黑暗中一道白影，隨即又消失不見。樹枝在風中微微悸動，伸出木指彼此搔抓。威爾張口想出聲警告，言語卻凍結在他的喉頭。或許是看錯了，或許那不過是只鳥，或是雪地上的反光，更或許是月光造成的錯覺。他到底看到了什么？
“Will, where are you?” Ser Waymar called up. “Can you see anything?” He was turning in a slow circle, suddenly wary, his sword in hand. He must have felt them, as Will felt them. There was nothing to see. “Answer me! Why is it so cold?”
“威爾，你在哪里？”威瑪爵士朝上方喊，“你看到什么了嗎？”他突然提高警覺，手中持劍緩緩轉圈。他一定也和威爾一樣感覺到了。然而四周卻空無一人。“快回答我！這里為什么這么冷？”
It was cold. Shivering, Will clung more tightly to his perch. His face pressed hard against the trunk of the sentinel. He could feel the sweet, sticky sap on his cheek.
這里真的非常冷。威爾顫抖著抱緊樹干，面頰貼住哨兵樹的樹皮。黏稠而甜膩的樹汁流到他臉上。
A shadow emerged from the dark of the wood. It stood in front of Royce. Tall, it was, and gaunt and hard as old bones, with flesh pale as milk. Its armor seemed to change color as it moved; here it was white as new-fallen snow, there black as shadow, everywhere dappled with the deep grey-green of the trees. The patterns ran like moonlight on water with every step it took.
一道陰影突然自樹林暗處冒出，站到羅伊斯面前。它的體型十分高大，憔悴堅毅渾似枯骨，膚色蒼白如同乳汁。它的盔甲似乎會隨著移動而改變顏色，一會兒白如新雪，一會兒黑如暗影，處處點綴著森林的深奧灰綠。它每走一步，其上的圖案便似水面上的粼粼月光般不斷改變。
