“Ser Jorah is now in Pentos, anxious to earn a royal pardon that would allow him to return from exile,” Robert explained. "乔拉爵士现下人在潘托斯，正焦急地等着王家特赦好渡海回国。"劳勃解释，
“Lord Varys makes good use of him.” "瓦里斯伯爵妥善运用了这个优势。"
“So the slaver has become a spy,” Ned said with distaste. He handed the letter back. “I would rather he become a corpse 1.” "人口贩子这下又成了间谍？"奈德嫌恶地说，一边把信件交还。"我倒是宁愿他变成一具尸体。"
“Varys tells me that spies are more useful than corpses 2,” Robert said. “Jorah aside, what do you make of his report?” "瓦里斯认为间谍比尸体有用得多，"劳勃道，"不过撇开乔拉不谈，你对此事有何看法？"
“Daenerys Targaryen has wed 3 some Dothraki horselord. What of it? Shall we send her a wedding gift?” "丹妮莉丝嫁给一个多斯拉克马王，那又如何？难不成我们该送份结婚贺礼过去？"
The king frowned. “A knife, perhaps. A good sharp one, and a bold man to wield 4 it.” 国王皱眉："我看送把刀更好。一把锐利的好刀，拿在一个有胆量的人手里。"
Ned did not feign 5 surprise; Robert’s hatred 6 of the Targaryens was a madness in him. 奈德没有故作惊讶。劳勃对坦格利安家族的恨意几近疯狂，
He remembered the angry words they had exchanged when Tywin Lannister had presented Robert with the corpses of Rhaegar’s wife and children as a token of fealty 7. 他至今都还记忆犹新，当年泰温·兰尼斯特献上雷加妻儿们的尸体以示效忠时，两人所发生的激烈口角。
Ned had named that murder; Robert called it war. 奈德认为这是谋杀，劳勃却说是战争中难免的惨剧。
When he had protested that the young prince and princess were no more than babes, his new-made king had replied, “I see no babes. Only dragonspawn.” 当他辩称年幼的王子和公主与婴儿无异时，甫登上王位的劳勃应道："我可没看到什么婴儿，只见到恶龙的孽种。
Not even Jon Arryn had been able to calm that storm. Eddard Stark 8 had ridden out that very day in a cold rage, to fight the last battles of the war alone in the south. "就连琼恩·艾林也无法平息那场纷争。艾德·史塔克当天便愤然拂袖而去，独自领兵前往南方打最后的一场仗。
It had taken another death to reconcile them; Lyanna’s death, and the grief they had shared over her passing. 后来是因为莱安娜的死，两人才言归于好。
