soaping his long black hair and combing the knots and tangles 1 from it till it shone again as she remembered. 为他长长的黑发抹上肥皂,将纠缠打结的地方梳理柔顺,直到头发如她记忆中那般乌黑发亮。

She stopped for drink and food, but it was all she could do to nibble 3 at a fig 4 and keep down a mouthful of water. 她停下来吃东西,却只能吞下一颗无花果,喝了一口水。
Sleep would have been a release, but she had slept enough... too long, in truth. 睡眠或许是种解脱,但她已经睡了很久……睡得太久了。
She owed this night to Drogo, for all the nights that had been, and yet might be. 为了从前和将来每个他们共有的晚上,她应该为他奉献今夜。
The memory of their first ride was with her when she led him out into the darkness, 她领他走进黑夜,初次结合的回忆伴随着她。
for the Dothraki believed that all things of importance in a man's life must be done beneath the open sky. 多斯拉克人相信,所有的人生大事都应该让苍天作见证。
She told herself that there were powers stronger than hatred 5, and spells older and truer than any the maegi had learned in Asshai. 她告诉自己,这世上有比仇恨更强大的力量,有比巫魔女在亚夏习得的妖术更古老更真切的魔法。
