Arya spun around, with Needle in her hand. You better not come in here! she warned. She slashed at the air savagely.
艾莉亞倏地轉身，手中緊握縫衣針。你不要進來！她出聲警告，一邊對著空氣瘋狂揮砍。
The Hand will hear of this! Septa Mordane raged.
我會讓首相知道這件事！茉丹修女怒喝。
I don't care, Arya screamed. Go away.
我不管。艾莉亞尖叫，走開。
You will rue this insolent behavior, young lady, I promise you that. Arya listened at the door until she heard the sound of the septa's receding footsteps.
小姐，我跟你保證，你一定會為自己粗野的行為而后悔。艾莉亞在門邊側耳傾聽，直到聽見修女漸行漸遠的腳步聲。
She went back to the window, Needle in hand, and looked down into the courtyard below.
她又回到窗邊，手里握著縫衣針，朝下方的庭院望去。
If only she could climb like Bran, she thought; she would go out the window and down the tower,
要是她能像布蘭一樣爬上爬下就好了，她心想，那么她就能爬出窗戶，爬下高塔，
run away from this horrible place, away from Sansa and Septa Mordane and Prince Joffrey, from all of them.
逃離這個爛地方，遠離珊莎、茉丹修女和喬佛里王子，遠離所有的人。
Steal some food from the kitchens, take Needle and her good boots and a warm cloak.
順便從廚房偷點吃的，帶上縫衣針，上好的靴子，外加一件保暖的斗篷。
She could find Nymeria in the wild woods below the Trident, and together they'd return to Winterfell, or run to Jon on the Wall.
她可以在三叉戟河下游的森林里找到娜梅莉亞，然后她們就可以一起回臨冬城，或跑到長城去找瓊恩了。
She found herself wishing that Jon was here with her now. Then maybe she wouldn't feel so alone.
她發現自己好希望瓊恩此刻在自己身邊，那樣她就不會覺得這么孤單了。
A soft knock at the door behind her turned Arya away from the window and her dreams of escape.
輕輕的敲門聲將艾莉亞從她的脫逃夢里拉回現實。
Arya, her father's voice called out. Open the door. We need to talk.
艾莉亞，父親喚道，開門罷，我們需要談談。
Arya crossed the room and lifted the crossbar. Father was alone. He seemed more sad than angry.
艾莉亞穿過房間，舉起門閂。只見父親獨自一人站在門外，那樣子與其說是生氣，毋寧說是悲傷。
That made Arya feel even worse. May I come in? Arya nodded, then dropped her eyes, ashamed. Father closed the door. Whose sword is that?
這卻讓艾莉亞更難過。我可以進來嗎？艾莉亞點點頭，羞愧地垂下視線。父親關上門。那把劍是誰的？
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。
