Tyrion glanced at him sharply. Then he laughed, a raw snort of amusement that came bursting out through his nose entirely without his permission. “Oh, gods,” he said, choking on his laughter and shaking his head, “I suppose I do rather look like a grumkin. What does he do to snarks?”
提利昂瞪了他一眼，接著放聲大笑，那是一股他全然沒有預(yù)期的原始笑意。"噢，諸神在上，"他笑得差點岔了氣，不住搖頭，"我想我看起來確實蠻像的嘛！那要是他遇上真的古靈精怪會有何反應(yīng)啊？"
“You don’t want to know.” Jon picked up the wineskin and handed it to Tyrion.
"你不會想知道的。"瓊恩拾起酒袋，交還提利昂。
Tyrion pulled out the stopper, tilted his head, and squeezed a long stream into his mouth. The wine was cool fire as it trickled down his throat and warmed his belly. He held out the skin to Jon Snow. “Want some?”
提利昂拉開塞子，側(cè)著頭喝了一大口，葡萄酒宛如一泓冷火，流過他的喉嚨，溫暖他的脾胃。他把皮囊傳給瓊恩·雪諾。"你來點？"
The boy took the skin and tried a cautious swallow. “It’s true, isn’t it?” he said when he was done. “What you said about the Night’s Watch.”
男孩接過酒袋，謹慎地啜了一口。"剛才你說的那些關(guān)于守夜人的事，"喝完之后他問，"都是真的？"
Tyrion nodded.
提利昂點點頭。
Jon Snow set his mouth in a grim line. “If that’s what it is, that’s what it is.”
瓊恩·雪諾神情肅穆地抿抿嘴。"那我就既來之則安之。"
Tyrion grinned at him. “That’s good, bastard. Most men would rather deny a hard truth than face it.”
提利昂朝他嘿嘿一笑。"私生子，真有你的。大部分的人寧可否認事實，也不愿面對真相。"
“Most men,” the boy said. “But not you.”
"那是大部分的人，"男孩道，"但不是你。"
“No,” Tyrion admitted, “not me. I seldom even dream of dragons anymore. There are no dragons.” He scooped up the fallen bearskin. “Come, we had better return to camp before your uncle calls the banners.”
"你說得對，"提利昂同意，"不是我。現(xiàn)在我連龍都很少去想了，這世上沒有龍了。"他撿起掉落在地的熊皮。"走，我們還是趁你叔叔沒出來找人之前回營去罷。"
The walk was short, but the ground was rough underfoot and his legs were cramping badly by the time they got back. Jon Snow offered a hand to help him over a thick tangle of roots, but Tyrion shook him off. He would make his own way, as he had all his life.
回營的路雖然不長，但地面崎嶇不平，等到趕回營區(qū)，他的雙腿已經(jīng)抽筋得厲害。瓊恩·雪諾伸手準備幫他跨越一叢糾結(jié)繁密的樹根，但提利昂卻揮手拒絕了。他要自己走自己的路，一如他這一生。
背景介紹：
《權(quán)力的游戲》是一部中世紀史詩奇幻題材的電視連續(xù)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(chǔ)改編創(chuàng)作，由大衛(wèi)·貝尼奧夫和丹尼爾·威斯編劇、HBO電視網(wǎng)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(guān)注點，描寫細膩豐富，突破了幻想文學(xué)界固有的創(chuàng)作模式，多次引領(lǐng)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(xué)界，轉(zhuǎn)而投身演藝界發(fā)展，1996年他才重返文壇而開始奇幻文學(xué)的創(chuàng)作，處女作便是《權(quán)力的游戲》，即為《冰與火之歌》的首部曲。《權(quán)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(jīng)可以和《魔戒》平起平坐，作者網(wǎng)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。
