He lifted his eyes and saw clear across the narrow sea, to the Free Cities and the green Dothraki sea and beyond,
抬起眼,他的视线越过狭海,清晰地望向自由贸易城邦及彼方宛如绿色汪洋的多斯拉克草原,
to Vaes Dothrak under its mountain, to the fabled lands of the Jade Sea, to Asshai by the Shadow, where dragons stirred beneath the sunrise.
望向峰峦脚下的维斯·多斯拉克,望向玉海的传奇之地,望向亚夏之外的阴影之地,魔龙正在那里初曙的旭日下蠢蠢欲动。
Finally he looked north. He saw the Wall shining like blue crystal, and his bastard brother Jon sleeping alone in a cold bed,

his skin growing pale and hard as the memory of all warmth fled from him.
温暖和热度的记忆渐渐消逝,皮肤也随之苍白坚实。
And he looked past the Wall, past endless forests cloaked in snow, past the frozen shore and the great blue-white rivers of ice and the dead plains where nothing grew or lived.
他眺望长城之外,视线穿过无边无际、白雪覆盖的森林,越过结冻的河岸,广阔的蓝白冰河,以及不见任何活物踪迹的死寂冰原。
North and north and north he looked, to the curtain of light at the end of the world, and then beyond that curtain.

Now you know, the crow whispered as it sat on his shoulder. Now you know why you must live.
现在你知道了吧?乌鸦端坐在他肩膀上悄声道,现在你知道为什么要活下去了吧?
Why?Bran said, not understanding, falling, falling.
为什么?布兰不解地问,仍旧不停地往下掉,往下掉。
Because winter is coming.
因为凛冬将至。

布兰看看肩膀上的乌鸦,乌鸦也看着他。它原来有三只眼睛,第三只眼里充满一种恐怖的知识。
背景介绍:
《权力的游戏》是一部中世纪史诗奇幻题材的电视连续剧。该剧以美国作家乔治·R·R·马丁的奇幻巨作《冰与火之歌》七部曲为基础改编创作,由大卫·贝尼奥夫和丹尼尔·威斯编剧、HBO电视网推出。乔治·雷蒙德·理查德·马丁是欧美奇幻小说大师。马丁的作品主要以人物为关注点,描写细腻丰富,突破了幻想文学界固有的创作模式,多次引领阅读潮流。由于马丁的辉煌成就,他被誉为美国的托尔金和新世纪的海明威。从1989年开始,马丁淡出文学界,转而投身演艺界发展,1996年他才重返文坛而开始奇幻文学的创作,处女作便是《权力的游戏》,即为《冰与火之歌》的首部曲。《权力的游戏》甫出便拿下了British Fantasy Society、 世界奇幻奖和星云奖年度最佳幻想作品提名,在非官方的不记名奇幻作品投票中,《冰与火之歌》俨然已经可以和《魔戒》平起平坐,作者网站的访问量也是和斯蒂芬·金、J.K.罗琳等不相上下,其受欢迎的程度可见一斑。乔治马丁被时代杂志评选为2011年影响世界的一百人之一。
