冰与火之歌系列之《权力的游戏》第52期:第四章艾德(2)
现在香水却当夏和他如影随形了。他的腰围也和身高同样惊人。
[00:07:07]Ned had last seen the king nine years before during Balon Greyjoy’s rebellion,
奈德上一次见到国王，是在九年前的巴隆·葛雷乔伊之乱。
[00:12:27]when the stag and the direwolf had joined to end the pretensions of the self-proclaimed King of the Iron Islands.
那时维鹿与冰原狼的旗帜齐飞，两家军队合力绥靖那自立为王的铁群岛领主。
[00:20:18]Since the night they had stood side by side in Greyjoy’s fallen stronghold,
胜利之夜，两人并肩站在葛雷乔伊家族陷落的堡垒大厅里，
[00:25:08]where Robert had accepted the rebel lord’s surrender and Ned had taken his son Theon as hostage and ward,
劳勃接受叛军首领的降书，奈德则将其幼子席恩收为养子。
[00:32:28]the king had gained at least eight stone.
之後，劳勃起码胖了几十公斤。
[00:34:45]A beard as coarse and black as iron wire covered his jaw to hide his double chin and the sag of the royal jowls,
如今一团粗黑如铁丝的胡子遮住他肥胖的双下巴，
[00:44:34]but nothing could hide his stomach or the dark circles under his eyes.
但没有任何东西可以掩盖他突出的小腹和凹陷的黑眼圈。
[00:49:37]Yet Robert was Ned’s king now, and not just a friend,
但劳勃终究是奈德的国君，而不仅仅是朋友，
[00:53:42]so he said only, Your Grace. Winterfell is yours.
所以他只说：陛下，临冬城听候您差遣。
[00:58:40]By then the others were dismounting as well, and grooms were coming forward for their mounts.
此时其他人纷纷下马，城里的马夫过来照料马匹。
[01:04:12]Robert’s queen, Cersei Lannister, entered on foot with her younger children.
劳勃的皇后，瑟曦·兰尼斯特带著她年幼的孩子们走进城里。
[01:09:37]The wheelhouse in which they had ridden, a huge double-decked carriage
他们乘坐的轮宫是一辆巨大的双层马车，
[01:13:50]of oiled oak and gilded metal pulled by forty heavy draft horses,
以油亮的橡木和镶滚金边的金属搭建而成，由四十匹骏马共同拖拉，
[01:19:39]was too wide to pass through the castle gate. Ned knelt in the snow to kiss the queen’s ring,
因为太宽，只得停在城门外。奈德在雪地里跪下，亲吻皇后手上的戒指，
[01:25:23]while Robert embraced Catelyn like a long-lost sister.
劳勃则像是拥抱自己失散已久的妹妹般地拥抱了凯特琳。
[01:27:13]Then the children had been brought forward, introduced, and approved of by both sides.
接著孩子们被带上前来，彼此正式介绍过後，得到双方家长的赞许。
[01:33:50]No sooner had those formalities of greeting been completed than the king had said to his host,
正式的见面礼仪才刚结束没多久，国王便说：
[01:41:07]Take me down to your crypt, Eddard. I would pay my respects.
艾德，带我到你们家墓窖去，我要聊表敬意。
