He always took her from behind, Dothraki fashion, for which Dany was grateful; 依照多斯拉克习俗，他总是从后面上，为此丹妮非常感激，
that way her lord husband could not see the tears that wet her face, and she could use her pillow to muffle 1 her cries of pain. 因为这样一来，夫君便不会见她泪流满面的模样，她也可以用枕头来遮掩自己痛苦的喊叫。
When he was done, he would close his eyes and begin to snore softly and Dany would lie beside him, her body bruised 2 and sore, hurting too much for sleep. 完事之后，他两眼一闭，便轻声打起呼来，丹妮则浑身是伤地躺在旁边，痛得难以成眠。
Day followed day, and night followed night, until Dany knew she could not endure a moment longer. She would kill herself rather than go on, she decided 3 one night? 日复一日，夜复一夜，直到丹妮清楚地知道自己一刻也无法再忍受下去。某天晚上，她决定宁可自杀，也不愿继续苟且偷生……
Yet when she slept that night, she dreamt the dragon dream again. Viserys was not in it this time. There was only her and the dragon. 然而就在那天夜里，当她睡觉的时候，却又做了那个关于龙的梦。这次没有韦赛里斯，只有她和巨龙。
Its scales were black as night, wet and slick with blood. Her blood, Dany sensed. 它的鳞片如暗夜般墨黑，上面血迹湿滑。那是她的血，丹妮发觉。
Its eyes were pools of molten magma, and when it opened its mouth, the flame came roaring out in a hot jet. 它的眼睛是两个熔岩火池，它张开口，烈焰从中激射而出。
She could hear it singing to her, She opened her arms to the fire, embraced it, let it swallow her whole, let it cleanse 4 her and temper her and scour 5 her clean. 它在朝自己唱歌啊，于是她伸开双臂，拥抱火焰，让它将自己完全吞噬，涤净她，锻炼她。
She could feel her flesh sear and blacken and slough 6 away, could feel her blood boil and turn to steam, and yet there was no pain. 她感到自己的肌肉焦灼发黑，坏死脱皮，感到自己的血液沸腾蒸发，却毫无痛楚，
She felt strong and new and fierce. 反而觉得强壮健实，如获新生。
And the next day, strangely, she did not seem to hurt quite so much. 奇怪的是，隔天她似乎痛得不那么厉害了，
It was as if the gods had heard her and taken pity. Even her handmaids noticed the change. Khaleesi, Jhiqui said, what is wrong? Are you sick? 好像天上诸神听到了她的哀求，怜悯起她的不幸。就连她的贴身女仆也感到诧异。卡丽熙，姬琪说，怎么回事？您不舒服吗？
