The Lords' Fall
钢铁领主的陨落
搏斗。和我的弟兄战斗。和我自己战斗。和SIVA(注1) ~消耗增强复制~(注2)。一根卷须伸出来，碾碎了我的机灵。我转身面对它。我的靴子陷在沾满鲜血的雪地里。如果我走了，为什么我还在这里？
~SIVA.MEM.??0308(注3)
科洛文斯(注4)在油轮丧生。成千上百的卷须......他把它们都打碎切断，直到弹药耗尽。然后他砸碎了它们 ~消耗增强复制~。可这还不够。
杀死科洛文斯的东西也杀死了我。
~SIVA.MEM.??0309
我斧头的火焰快要熄灭了。即使是它的火也需要燃料。
我需要燃料罐，但SIVA已经拿走了它们。卷须寻找它们，缠绕它们，然后~消耗增强复制~。更多的蜂群蜂拥而至，吞噬任何它们碰到的东西。
SIVA从它所吞噬的东西中学习。
~SIVA.MEM.??0310
阿什拉文(注5)正朝着掩体前进。告诉我们在那集合。她有一个想法——认为我们可以守住那里，也许让那些枪发挥作用。抽离足够多的敌人，给乔尔德的小组射击掩护～消耗增强复制～。
这是个坏主意，但这是我们仅有的，最好的坏主意。
~SIVA.MEM.??0311
芬娜拉总是说她不介意死，因为死亡不会持续太久。几秒钟，然后光来了，明亮而温暖。她又复活了。
起来，芬娜拉！快站起来。
~SIVA.MEM.??0312
我们原本应该更加小心。要是从来没有联系过战争思维就好了。试图帮助。试图重建。想想～消耗增强复制～这是关键。
感觉我们已经战斗了好几天，好几周了。但我们很接近了。一旦我们到了复制室，我们…… ～消耗增强复制～
快走！我来拖住他们！
~SIVA.MEM.??0313
邪冬试图和战争思维沟通。他称它拉斯普廷。～消耗增强复制～ 他说他能让它明白。告诉它我们没有恶意。
拉斯普廷没有用言语回答。(注6)
~SIVA.MEM.??0314
我站在领主守望的边缘，看着敌人 。～消耗增强复制～
SIVA卷曲抽打着卷须向我们猛击。它形成了可以抓住我们的形状，愤怒的蜂群在我们周围嗡嗡作响，然后分崩离析，蜂群进入我们盔甲的每一个缝隙。
我知道怎么和军阀战斗。可这是 ~消耗增强复制～
~SIVA.MEM.??0315
我不想死。我不想死。我不想死。我不想...＂~消耗增强复制～
机灵？机灵，你在哪？
~SIVA.MEM.??0316
这不是我的终点！我已经走得太远了，不能死在这里！我让一种未知的力量塑造，现在～消耗增强复制～

- 注1：SIVA，湿婆，这是黄金时代一种强大的纳米技术，能够分解物质并将其重组为几乎任何所需的形式。
- 注2：~消耗增强复制～(～consume enhance replicate～)，对应了SIVA的能力，“～”的内容可以理解为机械的电子声音。
- 注3：从SIVA(名).MEM(memory,记忆)大概可以理解为SIVA的数据记录，后面的编号就是记录编号，关于记忆文件的编号就很大可能与时间顺序相关。
- 注4：科洛文斯(Colovance)，一名术士，钢铁之狼的成员，在与SIVA作战时，没能逃出一艘失事油轮，用尽光能被SIVA杀死。
- 注5：阿什拉文(Ashraven)，原名蒂娜莎-3(Tinasha-3)，Ashraven是她的尊称。是一名术士Exo。她计划守卫附近地堡掩护乔尔德的队伍挺进复制室对抗SIVA。
- 注6：一种说法是拉斯普廷一直想杀死邪冬而未能成功，SIVA是拉斯普廷设下的诱饵，目的就是消灭邪冬以及钢铁领主。另一种说法只是拉斯普廷认为他们是非法侵略者，使用SIVA技术消灭入侵者。

The Lords' Fall
The struggle. Fighting my brother. Fighting myself. The SIVA ~consume enhance replicate~. A tendril reaches out, crushes my Ghost. I turn to face it. My boots slide in snow thick with blood. If I am gone, then why am I still here?
~SIVA.MEM.??0308
Colovance died by the tanker. Dozens of frames, hundreds, more... he cut them down until he ran out of bullets. Then he smashed them ~consume enhance replicate~. It was not enough.
The same thing that killed Colovance killed me.
~SIVA.MEM.??0309
My axe's flames are almost dead. Even its fire requires fuel.
I need an Urn, but the SIVA has already taken them. The tendrils seek them out, wrap around them, and then ～consume enhance replicate～. More mites swarm out to feed on anything they can touch.
The SIVA learns from what it consumes.
~SIVA.MEM.??0310
Ashraven's cutting her way toward the bunker. Says we should meet her there. She's got an idea—thinks we can hole up in there, maybe get those guns working. Draw off enough of the enemy to give Jolder's group a shot ～consume enhance replicate～
It's a bad idea, but it's the best bad idea we have.
~SIVA.MEM.??0311
Finnala always says she doesn't mind dying, because it doesn't last. A few seconds and then the Light comes, bright and warm. And she rises again.
Get up, Finnala! Please get up.
~SIVA.MEM.??0312
We should have been more careful. Should have never contacted the Warmind. Trying to help. Trying to rebuild. Thought ～consume enhance replicate～ was the key.
Feels like we've been fighting for days, Weeks. But we're close. Once we get to the replicator, we ～consume enhance replicate～
Go! I'll hold them off!
~SIVA.MEM.??0313
Felwinter tried to communicate with the Warmind. Called it Rasputin.～consume enhance replicate～ Said he could make it understand. Tell it we meant no harm.
Rasputin didn't answer with words.
~SIVA.MEM.??0314
I stood at the edge of Lord's Watch and watched the enemy ～consume enhance replicate～
SIVA curled and thrashed, creating tendrils that lashed out at us. It formed shapes that could grapple us, and angry swarms that buzzed around us before breaking apart to worm their way into every ***** of our armor.
Warlords I know how to fight. This is ~consume enhance replicate
~SIVA.MEM.??0315
I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want to die. I don't want... "～consume enhance replicate～
Ghost? Ghost, where are you?
~SIVA.MEM.??0316
This is not my end! I have come too far to die here! I've let one unknown force make me, now～consume enhance replicate～
