We went to war when Lannister armies were ravaging the riverlands, and Ned was a prisoner, falsely accused of treason. We fought to defend ourselves, and to win my lord's freedom.
我們出兵打仗，是為了阻止蘭尼斯特軍在河間地燒殺擄掠，是為了拯救遭人誣陷，身陷囹圄的奈德。我們的目的在于保護領土，并使我夫君重獲自由。”
Well, the one is done, and the other forever beyond our reach. I will mourn for Ned until the end of my days, but I must think of the living. I want my daughters back, and the queen holds them still. If I must trade our four Lannisters for their two Starks, I will call that a bargain and thank the gods. I want you safe, Robb, ruling at Winterfell from your father's seat. I want you to live your life, to kiss a girl and wed a woman and father a son. I want to write an end to this. I want to go home, my lords, and weep for my husband.
“目前我們已經達成一個目的，而另一個則永遠不可能達成。雖然直到我死的那一天，我都會為奈德哀悼，然而我必須首先為生者考慮。我希望我的兩個女兒能平安歸來，她們如今還在太后手里。倘若我必須拿四個蘭尼斯特家人去交換兩個史塔克家人，我認為這樣非常劃算，并為此感謝天上諸神。羅柏，我希望你平平安安，接替你父親的爵位，統治臨冬城。我希望能見你幸福快樂地生活，親吻女孩的雙唇，娶妻生子。我希望能結束這一切。諸位大人，我渴望重返家園，并為亡夫哭泣終老。”
The hall was very quiet when Catelyn finished speaking.
凱特琳語畢，大廳一片寂然。
Peace, said her uncle Brynden. "Peace is sweet, my lady... but on what terms? It is no good hammering your sword into a plowshare if you must forge it again on the morrow."
“議和，”布林登叔叔說，“夫人，能議和自然好……但在什么條件之下呢？如果今日議和，馬放南山，明日便得拿起武器，重返戰場，這是沒有意義的。”
What did Torrhen and my Eddard die for, if I am to return to Karhold with nothing but their bones? asked Rickard Karstark.
“假如我只能帶著兒子的尸骨返回卡霍城，那么我的托倫和艾德死了又有何價值？”瑞卡德·卡史塔克質問。
Aye, said Lord Bracken. "Gregor Clegane laid waste to my fields, slaughtered my smallfolk, and left Stone Hedge a smoking ruin. Am I now to bend the knee to the ones who sent him? What have we fought for, if we are to put all back as it was before?"
“沒錯，”布雷肯伯爵道，“格雷果·克里岡燒光我的田地，屠殺我的子民，石籬城而今只剩一片焦黑廢墟。難道我還得向派他來的人卑躬屈膝？假如能這么輕易地忘記一切，何必辛辛苦苦打仗呢？”
