His brother wore grey chainmail over bleached leathers, sword and dagger at his waist, a fur-trimmed cloak across his shoulders. "You must take my place, as I took Father's, until we come home."
他身穿漂白的皮革背心，外罩灰色鎖子甲，腰際掛著長劍和匕首，肩披絨毛滾邊的披風。“你必須暫代我職，如同我暫代父親的位置一樣，直到我們回家。”
I know, Bran replied miserably. He had never felt so little or alone or scared. He did not know how to be a lord.
“我知道。”布蘭可憐兮兮地回答。他從未感覺如此孤單寂寞，又如此害怕。他根本不知道城主該怎么當。
Listen to Maester Luwin's counsel, and take care of Rickon. Tell him that I'll be back as soon as the fighting is done.
“聽從魯溫師傅的意見，并好好照顧瑞肯。告訴他，等戰事結束，我就立刻回家。”
Rickon had refused to come down. He was up in his chamber, redeyed and defiant. "No!" he'd screamed when Bran had asked if he didn't want to say farewell to Robb. "NO farewell!"
瑞肯拒絕下樓，他紅著眼睛，倔強地躲在樓上臥房里。“不要！”當布蘭問他要不要跟羅柏說再見時，他大聲尖叫，“不要說再見！”
I told him, Bran said. "He says no one ever comes back."
“我跟他說過了，”布蘭道，“可他說大家都沒回來。”
He can't be a baby forever. He's a Stark, and near four. Robb sighed. "Well, Mother will be home soon. And I'll bring back Father, I promise."
“他不能永遠當個小孩子。他是史塔克家族的人，已經快滿四歲了。”羅柏嘆道，“嗯，母親就快回來了，我也會把父親帶回來，我向你保證。”
He wheeled his courser around and trotted away. Grey Wind followed, loping beside the warhorse, lean and swift. Hallis Mollen went before them through the gate, carrying the rippling white banner of House Stark atop a high standard of grey ash. Theon Greyjoy and the Greatjon fell in on either side of Robb, and their knights formed up in a double column behind them, steel-tipped lances glinting in the sun.
說完，他調轉馬頭，快步跑開。灰風身形矯健地跟了上去，跑在戰馬旁邊。哈里斯·莫蘭走在最前，領頭穿過城門，高舉史塔克家族的灰白旗幟，旌旗在風中飄動。席恩·葛雷喬伊和大瓊恩走在羅柏兩側，騎士們則成兩列縱隊緊隨在后，鋼鐵槍尖在日光下閃閃發亮。
