Speak to them for us. Tell them of our need here. You have seen for yourself, my lord. The Night's Watch is dying.
请代我们向他们请愿,告诉他们我们是如何迫切地需要援助。大人,您也亲眼看到了,守夜人部队正在逐渐凋零。
Our strength is less than a thousand now. Six hundred here, two hundred in the Shadow Tower, even fewer at Eastwatch, and a scant third of those fighting men.

我因为不想冒犯他老爸,便由他去了。更愚蠢的是,我还派了两个部队里的顶尖好手跟他一道走。
Fool, the raven agreed. Tyrion glanced up. The bird peered down at him with those beady black eyes, ruffling its wings.
愚蠢。乌鸦同意。提利昂抬头看去,鸟儿用珠子似的黑眼睛睥睨他,抖动着翅膀。
Fool, it called again. Doubtless old Mormont would take it amiss if he throttled the creature. A pity.
愚蠢。它又叫。他很想勒死这只鸟,但想到老莫尔蒙必定会生气,只好作罢。
The Lord Commander took no notice of the irritating bird.

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。
