I think that... unlikely, Maester Luwin said. "Bran, when a man fights, his arms and legs and thoughts must be as one."
“我想這……恐怕不太可能。”魯溫師傅說，“布蘭，打仗的時候，人必須手腳和思想完全一致才行。”
Below in the yard, Sir Rodrik was yelling. "You fight like a goose. He pecks you and you peck him harder. Parry! Block the blow. Goose fighting will not suffice. If those were real swords, the first peck would take your arm off!" One of the other boys laughed, and the old knight rounded on him. "You laugh. You. Now that is gall. You fight like a hedgehog... "
下方的場子里，羅德利克爵士正在高喊：“你們打起來活像呆頭鵝，他啄一下，你啄回去，要擋啊！把攻擊擋下來！打架像鵝怎么成？這是真劍的話，啄一下你的手就沒啦！”旁邊一個男孩忍不住笑出聲，老騎士立刻轉身面對他。“你覺得好笑？啊？你到底懂不懂禮貌？你瞧瞧你，打起來像刺猬……”
There was a knight once who couldn't see, Bran said stubbornly, as Sir Rodrik went on below. "Old Nan told me about him. He had a long staff with blades at both ends and he could spin it in his hands and chop two men at once."
“從前有個騎士眼睛看不見，”布蘭固執地說。羅德利克爵士在下面繼續喝罵。“老奶媽跟我說，他有一根長長的棍子，兩邊都有尖刀，他可以拿在手中轉，一次砍兩個人。”
Symeon Star-Eyes, Luwin said as he marked numbers in a book. "When he lost his eyes, he put star sapphires in the empty sockets, or so the singers claim. Bran, that is only a story, like the tales of Florian the Fool. A fable from the Age of Heroes." The maester tsked. "You must put these dreams aside, they will only break your heart."
“那是‘星眼’賽米恩，”魯溫邊說邊在簿子上做記號。“失去雙眼之后，他把星辰藍寶石放進空空的眼窩，吟游詩人是這么唱的。可布蘭啊，那只是個故事，就像傻瓜佛羅理安的故事一樣，都是從英雄紀元流傳下來的寓言。”老學士嘖了一聲。“你要學著拋開這些白日夢，它們只會傷你心的。”
The mention of dreams reminded him. "I dreamed about the crow again last night. The one with three eyes. He flew into my bedchamber and told me to come with him, so I did.
說到了白日夢，倒是提醒了他。“我昨晚又夢見了那只烏鴉，就是生了三只眼睛的那只。它飛進我的臥房，要我跟它一起走，我就隨它去了。
