“Ah,” Tyrion said. He gave Sandor Clegane a perfunctory nod and walked away as briskly as his stunted legs would carry him, whistling. He pitied the first knight to try the Hound today. The man did have a temper.
"啊哈。"提利昂道，他半敷衍地朝桑鐸·克里岡點頭答謝，然后提起那雙畸形的腿，盡全力快步離開，心里可憐今天首位與獵狗過招的騎士，那家伙正在氣頭上。
A cold, cheerless meal had been laid out in the morning room of the Guest House. Jaime sat at table with Cersei and the children, talking in low, hushed voices.
客房的早餐室里擺了一桌冰冷而了無生氣的餐點，詹姆、瑟曦和公主王子們坐在一起，低聲交頭接耳。
“Is Robert still abed?” Tyrion asked as he seated himself, uninvited, at the table.
"勞勃還沒起床？"提利昂沒等他們招呼，徑自在餐桌前坐下。
His sister peered at him with the same expression of faint distaste she had worn since the day he was born. “The king has not slept at all,” she told him. “He is with Lord Eddard. He has taken their sorrow deeply to heart.”
姐姐用那種打從他出生起便慣有的鄙視眼神瞟了他一眼："國王根本沒睡。他整晚和史塔克大人在一起，難過得心都快碎了。"
“He has a large heart, our Robert,” Jaime said with a lazy smile. There was very little that Jaime took seriously. Tyrion knew that about his brother, and forgave it. During all the terrible long years of his childhood, only Jaime had ever shown him the smallest measure of affection or respect, and for that Tyrion was willing to forgive him most anything.
"咱們的好勞勃那顆心倒是挺大的。"詹姆慵懶地微笑。提利昂很清楚哥哥那對凡事都蠻不在乎的個性，因此不想跟他計較。自己過去那段慘痛而漫長的童年歲月里，只有詹姆對他有過那么一絲感情和尊重，光為這一點，提利昂就不愿跟他計較任何事。
A servant approached. “Bread,” Tyrion told him, “and two of those little fish, and a mug of that good dark beer to wash them down. Oh, and some bacon. Burn it until it turns black.” The man bowed and moved off. Tyrion turned back to his siblings. Twins, male and female. They looked very much the part this morning. Both had chosen a deep green that matched their eyes. Their blond curls were all a fashionable tumble, and gold ornaments shone at wrists and fingers and throats.
侍者迎上前來。"我要面包，"提利昂告訴他，"兩條這種小魚，再配上一杯上好的黑啤酒。噢，還要幾片培根，記得煎焦一點。"仆人鞠了個躬告退之后，提利昂轉頭面對他的兄姐。這對孿生兄妹今天都穿著深綠色的衣服，正好搭配他們眼瞳的顏色；金色的卷發呈現出時髦的波浪，金飾在他們的手腕、指間和頸項上閃閃發亮，兩人看起來真像一個模子刻出的雕塑。
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。
