一、前言

        自去年因故休更个人翻译系列以来,时常于忙里偷闲之中挂记此事,手中《命运简史》实体书更是许久荒废未读。纵使忧愁之书此类命学资料已有官方译本参考于前,各路大佬亲力翻译在后,然我之个人翻译发布时仍有一些读者表示鼓励支持予以关注,部分命学爱好者不吝赐教指出错误。此前休更虽有生活学习各类琐事缠身之故,而亦是自我懈怠拖延之由,

#光陨之秋#到来之际,心血来潮意图填坑,此后将尝试恢复更新,尽之所能,若无人愿赏,亦自以为乐。

        本篇所译原文来自命运2官方背景故事书《命运简史》第一册黑镜,该文章内容主要为《忧愁之书》的第一章第6节,讲述了邪魔族三姐妹流亡过程中决定下潜探寻始源星内部奥秘的过程,以下我将把自己根据个人理解所作的一版个人翻译于此发布与诸位共享。

  • 该文由本人通过查询翻阅加之个人理解进行翻译,非官方版本,部分内容并非精确

  • 翻译水平有限,主观倾向大(由于个人想法可能会在语言语序上略做调整),意译为主

    每段译文后会附上英文原文,部分地方有出入在所难免,各位命学爱好者可参照阅读

  • 鉴于本人才疏学浅,英文水平不高,初次接触命运简史相关内容的读者或可考虑先行阅读一些大佬对于相同文章的正经准确的直译,以免对某些内容产生误解。

  • 本篇之前部分的《忧愁之书》以及黑镜的前言和序言发布于Heybox,如有兴趣可在其平台上查找“陶日安”,投稿列表中可见,另外本篇亦有可能会同步于黑盒

二、正文

姐妹

Verse 1:6 Sisters

姐妹之谊终末前的象征记录与姿态改变。

A register of tokens and gestures exchanged before the end of sisterhood.

“我勇敢的妹妹希洛,你已经为把尸骸搬运出繁育室劳累久矣!来吧,这会儿将针舰的控制权转交与你,尽情体验肆意行舟的快感吧!”

"Xi Ro, my brave sister, you have worked too hard to move the carcasses out of the birthing room! Come. Steer the ship for a while. Take joy in what our needle can do."

希洛试着拒绝却为奥拉什的关照而暗自欣喜。她的操纵下,针舰行迹飞快,盘旋而航,深潜入洋而后升至海面,恰如叛徒临终之息。

Xi Ro tried to protest, but secretly, she was so glad for Aurash's care. She flew the needle ship in cutting circles, down beneath the sea: and their wake rose up to the surface like a traitor's dying breath.

“奥拉什,孤独的领航员,我们三人相依为命航行了如此之久,我知你喜好倾听或讲述。来吧,坐在这尸骸成山的房间,我将凯恩环礁带来的故事说与你听。”

“Aurash, lonely navigator, we have traveled so long with only each other. I know you love to hear and speak new tongues. Come, sit in the flesh garden room. I will read you these stories I bought at Kaharn."

奥拉什闭其两目,**于干瘪掉的尸堆中倾听萨索娜的故事,在十年的寿命结束前她尽其所能如饥似渴般地意欲了解更多东西。

Aurash sat among the mummified flesh fans with two of her eyes closed and listened in silence to Sathona's stories, hungry to understand, voracious to know as much as she could before her ten year life died.

片刻,希洛说道:“萨索娜,独自思索不加交流会使你趋向孤独,同我一起玩刃与灯的游戏吧!”

Later, Xi Ro said, "Sathona, cutting mind of ours, you grow lonely in your thought. Play swords and lanterns with me!"

而萨索娜忧心忡忡,与希洛在针舰闪耀的大厅中追逐时表现不出半点愉悦。

But Sathona was heavy with sorrow, and couldn't pretend any joy as she chased Xi Ro through the needle's glistening halls.

“萨索娜,何事令你心神不宁,困扰至此?”

"Sathona, pensive one, what is it? What troubles you?"

“共立誓言的姐妹们,我们已然五岁。耗费两年光景修缮此古船、观习其系统,我之年衰已不再适合服用虫母凝胶,曾弑父王之骑士亦然步入暮年。”

Her sisters listened as Sathona said "Oath-bearing siblings, we are five years old. For two years we've worked to repair this ancient ship and understand its systems. I am almost too old for the mother jelly, and the knights who killed our father are surely dying of age.

“吾辈将亡于此放逐之途中而陶克斯将将继续苟活,而奥拉什,远见卓识的你也将葬身于悠长岁月,未可寻得神之巨浪的存世证据亦或破解之法。”

"We three will die here, in exile. Taox will outlive us. And Aurash, brilliant-eyed Aurash, you will die of old age long before you have proof of your God-Wave, or any way to stop it."

奥拉什同希洛面面相觑,希洛开了口:“愿你不要这般坦诚。”而奥拉什一直以来对萨索娜坚信不疑。

Aurash and Xi Ro looked at each other. "I wish you weren't so honest," Xi Ro said.And Aurash thought that Sathona had never been wrong.

奥拉什内心自知守誓复仇的唯一途径,寻获那状伟强大的奥秘。奥秘之力无所不能。此为奥拉什内心之魂、信念之火与身后之影——她对穿过世界之缘找到世界之心的强烈渴望。

In her soul Aurash knew that the only way to keep their oath was to find a great, powerful secret. A secret that could change everything.This was Aurash's soul, her fire and her shadow-her desire to cut through the flank of the world and find its beating heart.

“我们必须下潜,”奥拉什直言,“达成这艘船的使命,向着源洋之底、核心的世界......”

"We have to dive," Aurash said. "That's what this ship is built to do. Dive into the Fundament, the world below us... towards the core."

“那些古船员们因此丧命,繁育室的暴行因此而生......”希洛反对。

"That's where the ancient crew died so obscenely," Xi Ro protested. "That's where the atrocity in the birthing room was born..."

“我们必须下潜,”萨索娜在希洛的低语后重复。“于世界之底、金属深处,愿我们迫切渴求之物就在那里......”

"We have to dive," Sathona said, following the whispers of her familiar. "In the world beneath us, in the metallic depths, I hope we may find what we need most...

更多的时间,更久的寿命。

More time. More life.

三、补充与后记

本篇为《忧愁之书》Verse 1:6 ,因为此章节字数较多且本人字迹不佳,遂不再同之前一样上传手写翻译

  • 关于文章内容

《忧愁之书》讲述了邪魔族的前身——锇族的故事,锇之王廷的老国王膝下有三位公主,分别是奥拉什(Aurash)、萨索娜(Sathona)、希洛(Xi Ro),也分别是之后为我们所知的 欧里克斯/奥里克斯(Auryx/Oryx)、萨瓦图恩(Savathun)、希乌阿拉斯(Xivu Arath)这三位邪魔族的大BOSS,译名基本为音译,个别会与其他人翻译不同。

本篇所记述之事是在三姐妹从宫廷虫母陶克斯密谋私通敌对势力氦饮者所发动的叛乱中侥幸逃生后的流亡途中发生,上述内容在《忧愁之书》前文有提及。三姐妹就此决定下潜至源洋深处,若是对命学略有了解的小伙伴应该会比较熟悉之后遭遇利维坦(生物)等剧情。
