“A hundred reasons. Duty. Honor. He yearns to write his name large across the book of history, to get away from his wife, or both. Perhaps he just wants to be warm for once in his life.”
"理由多的是，責任心、榮譽感都有可能，或者他想名垂青史，或者他們夫妻不和，甚至兩者皆有，也或許他只想找個溫暖的地方住住而已。"
“His wife is Lady Arryn’s sister. It’s a wonder Lysa was not here to greet us with her accusations.”
"他太太是艾林夫人的姐姐，萊莎竟然沒有跑到這里，用她的指控歡迎我們，已經很難得了。"
Bran looked down. There was a narrow ledge beneath the window, only a few inches wide. He tried to lower himself toward it. Too far. He would never reach.
布蘭往下看去，窗子下方只有個幾寸寬的窗欞，他試著放低身子，但是距離太遠，夠不到。
“You fret too much. Lysa Arryn is a frightened cow.”
"你想太多啦，艾林夫人不過是頭嚇壞的母牛嘛。"
“That frightened cow shared Jon Arryn’s bed.”
"這頭母?？墒呛铜偠鳌ぐ滞补舱淼?。"
“If she knew anything, she would have gone to Robert before she fled King’s Landing.”
"假如她知道，早在離開君臨之前就去找勞勃告狀了。"
“When he had already agreed to foster that weakling son of hers at Casterly Rock? I think not. She knew the boy’s life would be hostage to her silence. She may grow bolder now that he’s safe atop the Eyrie.”
"在他剛剛決定要把她那沒用的兒子送去凱巖城作養子的時候？我想不會。她自己也明白如此一來她兒子會成為人質，威脅她不準說出實情?，F在回到了鷹巢城，只怕她膽子會大起來。"
“Mothers.” The man made the word sound like a curse. “I think birthing does something to your minds. You are all mad.” He laughed. It was a bitter sound. “Let Lady Arryn grow as bold as she likes. Whatever she knows, whatever she thinks she knows, she has no proof.” He paused a moment. “Or does she?”
"作母親的都一個樣，"男人把"母親"一詞說得仿佛是個詛咒，"我總認為生產會燒壞腦子，你們全都瘋了。"他苦澀地笑笑，"不管她究竟知道什么，或自以為知道多少，反正她沒有證據。"他停了一會兒，"她有么？"
背景介紹：
《權力的游戲》是一部中世紀史詩奇幻題材的電視連續劇。該劇以美國作家喬治·R·R·馬丁的奇幻巨作《冰與火之歌》七部曲為基礎改編創作，由大衛·貝尼奧夫和丹尼爾·威斯編劇、HBO電視網推出。喬治·雷蒙德·理查德·馬丁是歐美奇幻小說大師。馬丁的作品主要以人物為關注點，描寫細膩豐富，突破了幻想文學界固有的創作模式，多次引領閱讀潮流。由于馬丁的輝煌成就，他被譽為美國的托爾金和新世紀的海明威。從1989年開始，馬丁淡出文學界，轉而投身演藝界發展，1996年他才重返文壇而開始奇幻文學的創作，處女作便是《權力的游戲》，即為《冰與火之歌》的首部曲。《權力的游戲》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻獎和星云獎年度最佳幻想作品提名，在非官方的不記名奇幻作品投票中，《冰與火之歌》儼然已經可以和《魔戒》平起平坐，作者網站的訪問量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.羅琳等不相上下，其受歡迎的程度可見一斑。喬治馬丁被時代雜志評選為2011年影響世界的一百人之一。
