I saw our gith friend inspecting you.
参考译文我看见我们那位吉斯朋友检查你了。
若我们开始转化
■ 源文件简介
You find a contemplative Astarion thinking about the danger we pose if we turn into mind flayers. He asks - hypothetically - if he had to kill us, how would we like to go? As an experienced murderer, he considers it a professional courtesy, but we might be outraged. He'll be enthusiastic when describing the different ways people can die - a fan talking about his favourite subject. If we threaten him, he'll be defensive and a little sulky.
参考译文起源盖尔遇见若有所思的阿斯代伦；他正在考虑众人一旦转化成夺心魔会造成怎样的危险。阿斯代伦提出一个假设：如果他不得不杀死起源盖尔，对方希望怎样死去？作为经验丰富的杀手，他把这视为职业礼节，但起源盖尔也可能因此动怒。谈起不同的死法时，他会兴致勃勃，像爱好者谈论最喜欢的话题；如果受到威胁，他会转为防备，还有些闷闷不乐。

I've always felt decapitation was a fine choice. One good swing and then - nothing.
