月光从楼道间的窗口洒下,将女子的半边脸庞照亮,她的眼睛反射出幽幽蓝光,犹如黑暗中的星辰。安娜的身子斜靠在门扉上,大部分没入阴影中,但轮廓线依然隐隐可见——良好的营养补给使得她完全不似最初那般干瘦模样,作为一名刚刚成年的女性,她的身形恰到好处,蕴含着这个年纪独有的青春魅力。Rolandships out a calmappearance, slowlywalksto go forward, the opposite partyalsosawhim, standingbody, withhisfouritems of relative.罗兰装出一副镇定的模样,慢慢走上前,对方也看到了他,站直身体,与他四目相对。„Thatis only an accident/surprise, Ido not know that shecan--”heopen the mouthto say.
“那只是一场意外,我不知道她会——”他开口道。„Iunderstand.”
“我明白。”„The opposite partyis small, Ihave not placedheart--”
“对方还小,我根本没放在心——”„Ialsounderstand.”
“我也明白。”In the differencewithRolandexpectation, Annalikeis not acting difficult, onherfacecannot see a disgruntledness, butis a seriousfacial expression.

Really, shesaidon own initiative: „Iam unable likeLightning, to dareto makebefore the peopleso...... Boldbehavior, thereforeIhaveto wait foryouhere.”
和罗兰预想中的不同,安娜并不像在闹别扭,她的脸上看不到一丝不悦,而是一副一本正经的神情。她的湖蓝色双眸中没有泛起丁点波澜,罗兰意识到,对方仍是那个直来直往的女子,她不喜欢伪装,也不需要伪装。果然,她主动说道:“我无法像闪电那样,在众人面前敢做出如此……大胆的行为,所以我只好在这里等你。”
After speakingthese words, herdoublecheeksawobviouslyblushes, buteven so, shehas not flinched, the eyewithRolandlooking straight ahead, the facial expression was still very earnest.
说完这句话后,她的双颊明显看到了一丝红晕,但即使如此,她也没有退缩,眼睛仍与罗兰直视,神情可谓无比认真。Rolandheartbeatslowtworackets, hewantsto sayanything, butthis momentallspoken languagesappearunnecessary. Perhapssheminds the Lightningaction, butputs in great inconvenience the way that or the complaintis notshehandles affairs, shestraightforwardlywill only expressoneselfrequest.罗兰心跳慢了两拍,他想说点什么,但此刻一切言语都显得多余。她或许介意闪电的举动,但委屈或抱怨不是她行事的方式,她只会将自己的要求直截了当地表达出来。

耿直而努力的孩子不应该被拒绝,他想。弯下腰,罗兰将脸颊贴近安娜,对方的鼻息微微吹拂,像是拨弄心弦的春风。略带紧张的呼吸声在寂静的走道里清晰可闻,随后,一张柔软的唇轻轻印在了罗兰的脸颊上。„Good night, Your highness.”Annasaidin a soft voice.
“晚安,殿下。”安娜轻声道。*******************
*******************Wendybysittingin the head, is reading the books in hand.温蒂靠坐在床头,翻看着手中的书籍。Thisfor her, is the rareleisure time, life that alsowants unable to thinkwhenCooperation Association.
这对她来说,是难得的闲暇时间,也是在共助会时想都不敢想的生活。Comessmall townshortly, shehas formedsuchhabit: Cleans the cleanbodybeforesleeping, puts on the silksystem the sleeping robe, is not the waistdoes not take away the knot, sits cross-leggedto sitin the bedding, the softpillowpadafter the waist, will read the books that borrowsfromyour highness.
来小镇没多久,她就养成了这样的习惯:在睡觉前清洗干净身子,穿上丝制的睡袍,不系腰也不扣扣子,盘腿坐在被窝中,将软绵绵的枕头垫在腰后,阅读从殿下那儿借来的书籍。TodayplacedLightningto spenda lot oftime, thereforeshedid not have the planto return to the back gardenagain, moreover after washing, went to beddirectly.
今天安置闪电花了不少时间,所以她没打算再回到后花园,而且洗漱后直接上了床。Thisisoneabout the history book that Churchorigins.
这是一本关于教会起源的史书。Althoughshegrows upin the monasterysince childhood, butaboutthisaspectknew that are not many. The nunslongrepeatedlywarned that theymustobeyGod'slecture, mayneverraiseGodgiven name-- her of commandchildhoodto feelto puzzle, everybodyhas the name, whynoblestgodsinstead?
尽管她从小在修道院长大,但对这方面了解并不多。修女长反复告诫她们要听从神的训导,可从未提起过神的名讳——这令儿时的她感到迷惑不解,大家都有名字,为何最高贵的神明反而没有?In the bookrecordsis basicwith the hearsay that sheafterwardheard, in the mainlandthreebigChurch, thinkat firstmutually the opposite partyis the heresy, those whobelieve is the evilGod. The war of thisbeliefhas continued for more than 100years, finallypresentChurchwins total victories, anddeclared that the evilGodwas eliminated, from now on the Godonly then the onlygiven name, will begodsthisworditself.
书中记载的和她后来听到的传闻基本相同,大陆上起初共有三大教会,相互认为对方是异端,信奉的是邪神。这场信仰之战持续了将近100多年,最终现在的教会大获全胜,并宣称邪神已被消灭,今后神只有唯一的名讳,就是神明这个词本身。
The followinglengthisto describe the Church'shonor and immortality, includingoldHoly CityandnewHoly Cityestablishment, as well asrebels the obtainedvictorytoevilwitch.

For exampleeachKingnameandmaritalsituationas well aschildren'swhereabouts. The familybranch that incharacterrecordslooks like a detailedgenealogysimply.
后面的篇幅都是描述教会的荣光和不朽,包括旧圣城和新圣城的建立,以及对邪恶女巫作乱所取得的胜利。这让温蒂觉得十分奇怪,她曾在罗兰殿下那儿借阅过《灰堡历史》和《大陆简史》,第一本几乎事无巨细地记载了王国的建立、发展和重大事件。譬如每一位国王的名字、婚姻情况以及儿女的去向。人物篇内所记载的家族分支简直像一部详细的族谱。«MainlandBrief history»focuses on the evolution of Four Great Kingdoms, the rightalternately and political struggle, but the rulerentire life of eachkingdom is still the importantrecordcontent.
《大陆简史》则着重于四大王国的演变,权利交替和政治斗争,但各个王国的统治者生平依然是重要的记载内容。Butin the Church'shistory book, has not mentionedanyPope'sname, or is the same withgods, substitutedwith a Popeworddirectlyhas successively held the name of leader. The articlelooks,as ifhehas passed throughseveral hundredyears of history. Thisdoes not conform to the common sense, the record, ratherdesirablyis desalinating.
可教会的史书上,没有提及任何一位教皇的名字,或者说,和神明一样,直接用教皇一词取代了历任领导者的名字。通篇看下来,仿佛他一人就贯穿了数百年的历史。这根本不符合常理,与其说记录,倒不如说在刻意淡化。At this moment, Nightingalesuddenlyappearsinroom. Wendyputs down the books, have a relishis looking at the opposite party: „Was so late, unexpectedlyhas free timehereto come?”
就在这时,夜莺突然出现在房中。温蒂放下书本,饶有兴致地望着对方:“这么晚了,居然有空到我这里来?”
The latterhas rubbed the neck, arrives at the bedsideto sit down, „justdeliveredNanato go home, Lightning?”
后者揉了揉脖子,走到床边坐下,“刚送完娜娜瓦回家,闪电呢?”„Onbedhas fallen a, mouthalsofatherandfatherreadto keep,”Wendyshrugged, „usuallylooked atherboldappearance, was still a child.”
“一倒床上就睡着了,嘴里还爸爸、爸爸的念个不停,”温蒂耸耸肩,“平时看她胆大包天的模样,仍然是个孩子啊。”„In your eyes, everyoneis a child,”Nightingalehas seized the book in herhand, „your highnesshas said that in the evening try not to read, especiallysitson the bedreads, rayinsufficientwordsharmfulvision.”
“在你眼里,谁都是孩子,”夜莺夺过她手中的书,“殿下说过了,晚上尽量不要看书,特别是坐在床上看书,光线不充足的话有害视力。”„Is, your highnesssaid.”
“是是,殿下说的。”Theychattedsome little time, spoke ofImpassable Mountain RangefromSilver Light City, fromhearingsmall townhadwitchto be murdered and princeresistsMonths of Demonshand in hand, Nightingalehasplacenot saying that butWendyalsoonce for a whilemade contact withtwo. Thisis in the past fiveyears the tacit understanding that two people is always togetherto form. Timethisslowlyflows, soonextinguishes when untilcandle, Wendycovers the mouthto say with a smile, „how, to seeLightningthataction, couldn't fall asleep?”
两人闲聊了好一会儿,从银光城说到绝境山脉,从听说小镇有女巫遇害到和王子携手对抗邪魔之月,夜莺有一句没一句地说着,而温蒂也时不时搭上两句。这是过去五年里两人形影不离所形成的默契。时间就这样缓缓流淌,直到蜡烛快要熄灭时,温蒂才掩嘴笑道,“怎么,看到闪电的那番举动,睡不着了?”„Youwere sayinganything......”
“你在说什么啊……”„Alsocanbeanything,”Wendyshook the headwith a smile, „Veronica, wearewitch, youshouldknow.”
“还能是什么,”温蒂笑着摇了摇头,“薇罗妮卡,我们是女巫,你应该知道的。”„......”Nightingaleis silent, crossedin a soft voiceshould for a long timesay, „Yeah.”
“……”夜莺沉默下来,过了好久才轻声应道,“嗯。”Thisis the destiny, destiny that allwitchare unable to evade. Wendyreceives the smiling face, sighedlightly, „Roland WimbledonwaskingdomFourth Prince, butwemustdo, washelpshimto mount the throne, becameGreycastleKing. Hewill govern the goodcountry, andgives the institute of sisterstaking shelter.”
这就是命运,所有女巫无法逃避的命运。温蒂收起笑容,轻叹了口气,“罗兰.温布顿是王国四王子,而我们所要做的,就是助他登上王位,成为灰堡国王。他会治理好国家,并给姐妹们一个容身之所。”„But, heeventuallyisKing. Whenis matureto the opportunity, hewill get married a Dukedaughter, or the princesses in otherkingdoms, thenunderbirthheir. Perhaps a person, many\;Perhapsboy, girl. The boyswill inheritthiscountry, the girlwill marryotherfamily backgroundprominentnoble.”
“但是,他终究是一位国王。待到时机成熟,他会迎娶一位公爵的女儿,或其他王国的公主,然后诞下子嗣。或是一人,或是许多\;或是男孩,或是女孩。男孩将继承这个国家,女孩则会嫁给其他家世显赫的贵族。”
Here Wendystopmoment, saidNightingale, those words that orallwitchdid not hopeto hear, „Veronica, wewerewitch, witchis unable to give birth to the descendant.”
说到这儿温蒂停顿片刻,说出了夜莺,或者说所有女巫都不希望听到的那句话,“薇罗妮卡,我们是女巫,女巫无法生育后代。”„Completelymost optimisticthinking, your highnessis in power for hundredyearslater, the sisterscanfinallywith the average mannotdifferent, canwalkfreelyonkingdomeachlands. Occasionallyalsowill haveoutstandingwitchto enter the upper class, is cannozed asnoble, the fact that butwitchis unable to give birth towas still unmodifiable. Theywill not have the descendantto continue the magnificence of family, similarly, thesearistocratic familieswill not considerto get marriedwitch. The heavenhas entrusted withour something, has won alsoour something. Thisis the destiny.”Shesaidin a soft voice,„hopesyoubenevolent.”
“就算尽最乐观的想,殿下执政百年之后,姐妹们终于能和常人无异,可以自由自在地行走在王国每片土地上。偶尔也会有杰出的女巫进入上层阶级,被册封为贵族,但女巫无法生育的事实仍不可改变。她们不会有后代来延续家族的辉煌,同样,那些世家也不会考虑迎娶一名女巫。上天赋予了我们一些东西,同时也夺走了我们一些东西。这就是命运。”她轻声道,“愿您仁慈。”„Iunderstand that”shesaidin a low voice.
“我明白的,”她低声说。
......
……
After deliveringNightingaleleaves, Wendyat heartdoes not feel better, butshebelieves that the opposite partycanwalk, after alltheyoncebridged overthat a difficulty, will not fall onthisridgeeasily.
送夜莺离开后,温蒂心里也不太好受,但她相信对方能走出来,毕竟她们曾跨过那么多道难关,不会轻易倒在这道坎上。Shesuchis believing.
她是这么坚信着。
