They can march on Casterly Rock if they so choose, and what's to stop them? My lords, we are beaten. We must sue for peace.
他們甚至可以大搖大擺地進軍凱巖城，誰又能阻止他們呢？諸位大人，我們戰敗了，應該立刻求和。”
Peace? Tyrion swirled his wine thoughtfully, took a deep draft, and hurled his empty cup to the floor, where it shattered into a thousand pieces. "There's your peace, Sir Harys. My sweet nephew broke it for good and all when he decided to ornament the Red Keep with Lord Eddard's head. You'll have an easier time drinking wine from that cup than you will convincing Robb Stark to make peace now. He's winning... or hadn't you noticed?"
“求和？”提利昂若有所思地晃著酒杯，一飲而盡，隨后將空杯往地上一擲，摔成千百碎片。“哈瑞斯爵士，這就是求和的結果。打從我那好外甥決定拿艾德大人的頭來裝飾紅堡的那一刻起，所有和談的機會都粉碎了。眼下要跟羅柏·史塔克求和，比用地下這破杯裝酒還難。占上風的是他……難道您沒發現？”
Two battles do not make a war, Sir Addam insisted. "We are far from lost. I should welcome the chance to try my own steel against this Stark boy."
“兩場戰役的勝負并不能決定整個戰爭的成敗，”亞當爵士堅持，“我們還遠遠沒有戰敗。我很樂意跟這史塔克小鬼在戰場上親自較量較量。”
Perhaps they would consent to a truce, and allow us to trade our prisoners for theirs, offered Lord Lefford.
“或許他們會答應暫時停戰，以便雙方交換人質。”萊佛德伯爵提議。
Unless they trade three-for-one, we still come out light on those scales, Tyrion said acidly. "And what are we to offer for my brother? Lord Eddard's rotting head?"
“除非他們愿意三個換一個——這樣我們都嫌不夠咧。”提利昂尖酸地說，“再說了，我們拿誰去換我哥哥？拿艾德大人爛掉的頭么？”
I had heard that Queen Cersei has the Hand's daughters, Lefford said hopefully. "If we give the lad his sisters back... "
“聽說瑟曦太后手上握有首相的兩個女兒，”萊佛德滿懷希望地說，“假如我們提出把這小子的妹妹還給他……”
Sir Addam snorted disdainfully. "He would have to be an utter ass to trade Jaime Lannister's life for two girls."
亞當爵士輕蔑地哼了一聲。“他瘋了才拿詹姆·蘭尼斯特的命來換兩個小女生。”
Then we must ransom Sir Jaime, whatever it costs, Lord Lefford said.
“那就把詹姆爵士贖回來，不管花多少金子。”萊佛德伯爵道。
