艾爾登法環DLC發佈在即，我突然想到了2022年第一次通關法環後，花了整整一個月時間推敲而成的一首雙語長詩。褪色者的道路是一條充滿史詩與悲涼的荊棘之徑，而你我皆成孤王。
-
For the Lonely Lord（孤王之詩）
-
王座上陳列著我為王的屍體
舔舐著破碎之環灑落的金雨
那些神與無上的黃金流星和夢幻
那些被敲碎的幻聽似的低語……
聽：
-
…My Lord, may I ask…
Why don't you adorn your crown…
But a pot?
-
My friend died in face of me, exploded.
My blade was covered full of his bleed.
His last words is I was his hero…
Be worthy of, in his heart.
-
He made this lovely pot in his journey.
He gave it to me when we again meet.
He said it's firm and cute, must suit me.
-
But I returned him with blade.
As I returned every my friend.
可是我回報他以鋒刃。
正如我回報每一個友人。
-
我再次看見天上巨大的風暴。
我再次看見地上灰燼的王城。
我看見下水道里爬行的老鼠，
正啃食著夜空中墜落的星辰。
-
Once I have a guider.
She was burned for our ambition.
Once I have a teacher.
She was destroyed for the magician.
Once my witch left her note:
Even if the guidance has been broken,
Please be the king of Elden.
-
So I returned them with blade.
As I returned every my friend.
於是我回報他們以鋒刃。
正如我回報每一個友人。
-
我看見黃金樹上燃起的火，
滋養著罪人心中殺欲的花。
最癲狂最汙穢的人啊，
請在那王城的糞池裡爬。
-
迷濛而漫漫的化聖的雪，
衰老了夜撒下的月華；
那洗不淨的罪孽嘶聲地發問：
為什麼救我，在侯王的斷崖？
-
我是最卑微最末代的王啊，
捧著最骯髒最破碎的法。
我是最窮途最無能的人啊，
掩蓋我懦弱的只有屠殺。
-
Once I met a man, humble and ugly,
Looks like a funny monkey.
Once I met a girl, tender and shy,
Every time when I want, hug me.
-
But now I have no chance to tell him,
I have been the Lord as his well augur.
He is the first one calling me Lord,
He is the best one being my tailor.
-
But now I have no chance to tell her,
I have been the Lord as her long for.
This time what your hope I allow,
This time has no golden law.
-
Once I met a hunter,
He died for chasing compatriot killer.
Once I met a father,
He died for avenging for his daughter.
Once I met many Tarnisheds,
they did nothing but helped others,
I killed them. Because I am,
fatuous, greedy, and ambitious.
-
That's why I returned them with blade.
As I returned every my friend.
因此我回報他們以鋒刃，
正如我回報每一個友人。
-
不過是不死而貪婪的靈魂，
又碰巧與指引一同沉淪。
最南端最醜陋的混種，
像極我滿是褻瀆的心。
-
彷彿是對罪人的詛咒與懲罰啊，
神早已為他們寫下悲劇的結局。
世人以為我是無所不能的王啊，
卻無力挽留我身邊之人的離去。
-
I regret I have no power to save anyone!
I have seen them fell in face one by one.
Whether wolf or snake, knight or witch.
Whether golden throne or scarlet beach.
-
Millison my girl, have you ever hearnd,
Malenia said she is the blade of Micaela.
And you, my girl,
you are the blade of me, forever.
-
在古龍之屍上眺望碎星的風，
又策馬踏進艾奧尼亞的湖；
我為你輾轉於猩紅腐敗之中，
將你視作我獨一份的救贖。
-
看你與我並肩面對熔岩的龍，
用我贈的義手斬殺神的使徒；
即使我希望你至死是絢爛的花……
但我怎忍心讓你因背叛而死
死得像他們那樣孤獨？
-
Millison my girl, please forgive me.
When your "father" ask me to betray you,
I killed him in shocked and angrily.
Millison my girl, I can't forgive you.
Why pulling your needle self assertively?
I do have beaten your "sisters" enemy…
-
I hope the world can be like this:
Vagrant merchants ride their camels,
Tarnisheds come and go in the Hall.
I dreamed there will be two ironsmith,
I dreamed there will be two business,
Whether robber, captive or colossus.
Mor Gott go on being his Lord,
And I go pots' village to be a maintainer.
-
When I have chance to restart my life,
I need say sorry to my dead witch.
The guidance has been broken you know,
I cannot see the guidance as well.
