How long a ride? she asked.
要走多久？她問。
We can be at the mountain by evenfall, Uncle Brynden said, but the climb will take another day.
今天傍晚我們可以抵達山下，布林登叔叔道，但上山還要再花去一天的時間。
Ser Rodrik Cassel spoke up from behind. My lady, he said, I fear I can go no farther today.
后面的羅德利克·凱索爵士開了口，夫人，他說，恐怕我今天沒法再走下去。
His face sagged beneath his ragged, newgrown whiskers, and he looked so weary Catelyn feared he might fall off his horse.
他的臉塌成一團，新長的胡子參差不齊，看來非常虛弱，凱特琳真擔心他會跌下馬。
Nor should you, she said. You have done all I could have asked of you, and a hundred times more.
你本不該再走。她說，我所要求你做的，你不但盡數(shù)辦到，還大大超出我的期望。
My uncle will see me the rest of the way to the Eyrie. Lannister must come with me, but there is no reason that you and the others should not rest here and recover your strength.
我叔叔會陪我上鷹巢城，蘭尼斯特必須跟我走，但你和其他人沒有理由不留在這里好好休息，恢復元氣。
We should be honored to have them to guest, Ser Donnel said with the grave courtesy of the young.
能招待他們作為賓客是我們的榮幸。年輕的唐納爾爵士努力嚴肅而依禮地說。
Beside Ser Rodrik, only Bronn, Ser Willis Wode, and Marillion the singer remained of the party that had ridden with her from the inn by the crossroads.
除了羅德利克爵士，當初跟她一起從路口旅店出發(fā)的人，如今只剩波隆、維里·渥德爵士和歌手馬瑞里安。
My lady, Marillion said, riding forward. I beg you allow me to accompany you to the Eyrie, to see the end of the tale as I saw its beginnings.
夫人，馬瑞里安驅騎向前，請您允許我也陪伴您到鷹巢城去，我看到了故事的開頭，也想看看故事怎么結束。
The boy sounded haggard, yet strangely determined; he had a fevered shine to his eyes.
男孩的聲音雖然憔悴，卻出奇堅決，眼里閃著熱切的光芒。
Catelyn had never asked the singer to ride with them; that choice he had made himself, and how he had come to survive the journey when so many braver men lay dead and unburied behind them, she could never say.
凱特琳原本就沒有邀這名歌手同行，完全是他自作主張。至于為什么許多比他勇敢的人都棄尸荒野，他卻活得好端端的，她就不得而知了。
Yet here he was, with a scruff of beard that made him look almost a man.
總之他在途中長了點胡碴，看起來多了點男人味道，他都走了這么遠，
Perhaps she owed him something for having come this far. Very well, she told him.
或許她不該拒絕他。好吧。她對他說。
I'll come as well, Bronn announced.
我也去。波隆表示。
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(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(chuàng)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(fā)展，1996年他才重返文壇而開始奇幻文學的創(chuàng)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。
