冰与火之歌系列之《权力的游戏》第1021期:第四十八章 丹妮莉丝(14)

 　　Her words were a knife through Dany's breast. 她的这番话有如利刃刺进丹妮胸膛，

　　What had she ever done to make the gods so cruel? 她究竟造了什么孽，竟得到天上诸神如此残酷的对待？

　　She had finally found a safe place, had finally tasted love and hope. 好不容易找到栖身之所，好不容易尝到爱情与希望的甜美，

　　She was finally going home. And now to lose it all... 好不容易踏上归乡之路，到头来一切都是幻梦……

　　"No," she pleaded¹. "Save him, and I will free you, I swear it. You must know a way... some magic, some... " “不，”她恳求，“只要你救他，我就放你自由，我对天发誓。你一定还知道其他的办法……某种魔法，或者……”

　　Mirri Maz Duur sat back on her heels and studied Daenerys through eyes as black as night.  弥丽·马兹·笃尔跪坐下来，用那双漆黑如夜的眼睛打量着丹妮。

　　"There is a spell." Her voice was quiet, scarcely more than a whisper. “的确还有一种魔法。”她的声音静得出奇，几与呓语无异。

　　"But it is hard, lady, and dark. Some would say that death is cleaner. “但是，夫人，这个法术不但施行困难，而且非常黑暗，对某些人而言，死亡反而比较干脆。

　　I learned the way in Asshai, and paid dear for the lesson. 我在亚夏学会了这个法术，并为此付出惨痛的代价。

　　My teacher was a bloodmage from the Shadow Lands." 我的导师是来自阴影之地的血巫。”

　　Dany went cold all over. "Then you truly are a maegi... " 丹妮只觉全身冰冷。“你真的是巫魔女……”

　　Am I? Mirri Maz Duur smiled. "Only a maegi can save your rider now, Silver Lady." “是吗？”弥丽·马兹·笃尔微笑，“银夫人，眼下也只有巫魔女可以救您的勇士。”

　　Is there no other way? No other. “没有别的办法？”“没有。”

　　Khal Drogo gave a shuddering² gasp³. 卓戈卡奥颤抖着喘了口气。

　　Do it, Dany blurted⁴. She must not be afraid; she was the blood of the dragon. "Save him." “动手吧，”丹妮脱口而出。她不能害怕，她是真龙传人。“快救救他。”

　　There is a price, the godswife warned her. “您必须付出代价。”女祭司警告她。

　　You'll have gold, horses, whatever you like. “黄金、马匹……你要什么都可以。”
