Renly's battles were already coming apart as the rumors spread from mouth to mouth.
謠言口耳相傳,藍禮的大軍在逐步瓦解。
The nightfires had burned low, and as the east began to lighten the immense mass of Storm's End
夜晚的篝火漸漸熄滅,東方的旭日晨光下,風息堡碩大無朋的身軀卓然不群,
emerged like a dream of stone while wisps of pale mist raced across the field, flying from the sun on wings of wind.
宛如夢幻中的巨崖。蒼白的迷霧一絲絲涌動,彌漫整個原野,隨后又在太陽的光輝和清風的羽翼下四散逃竄。
Morning ghosts, she had heard Old Nan call them once, spirits returning to their graves.
那是清晨的幽靈啊,老奶媽給她講過這個典故,那是返回墳墓的靈魂。
And Renly one of them now, gone like his brother Robert, like her own dear Ned.
藍禮就在里面,一如他的哥哥勞勃,一如她摯愛的奈德。
"I never held him but as he died,"
“我從沒抱過他,直到他死去的那一刻,”
Brienne said quietly as they walked through the spreading chaos.
她們在擴散的混亂中穿梭,布蕾妮靜靜地說。
Her voice sounded as if she might break at any instant.
她的語調聽起來似乎隨時可能崩潰。
"He was laughing one moment, and suddenly the blood was everywhere... my lady, I do not understand.
“前一刻他還在笑,突然卻到處都是血……夫人,我不明白。
Did you see, did you... ?" "I saw a shadow.
您看見了嗎,您看見……?”“我看見了一道影子。
I thought it was Renly's shadow at the first, but it was his brother's."
我起初以為那是藍禮的影子,然而不是,那是他哥哥的影子?!?span style="white-space:normal;">
"Lord Stannis?"
“史坦尼斯大人?”
"I felt him. It makes no sense, I know."
“我能感覺到他。這聽起來沒什么理由,但我知道……”
It made sense enough for Brienne.
對布蕾妮而言,這句話已經足夠。
"I will kill him," the tall homely girl declared.
“我會殺了他,”這位身材高大、容貌平庸的姑娘斬釘截鐵地宣布。
"With my lord's own sword, I will kill him. I swear it. I swear it. I swear it."
“我會親手殺了他,用我主公的劍替他報仇。我發(fā)誓!我發(fā)誓!我發(fā)誓!”
Hal Mollen and the rest of her escort were waiting with the horses.
哈爾·莫蘭和她的護衛(wèi)備好了馬等著她。
Ser Wendel Manderly was all in a lather to know what was happening.
文德爾·曼德勒爵士正急不可捺地四處打聽,想弄清到底發(fā)生了什么。
"My lady, the camp has gone mad," he blurted when he saw them.
“夫人,整個營地都好像發(fā)了瘋!”瞧見她們,他不假思索地喊道。
"Lord Renly, is he—" He stopped suddenly, staring at Brienne and the blood that drenched her.
“藍禮大人,他到底——”他突然住嘴,瞪著渾身浴血的布蕾妮。
