Then tell me how to complete the ritual.
参考译文那就告诉我,该如何完成仪式。
Astarion addresses a defeated Cazador after their fight. He pulls his former master from the coffin where he's recovering and has to decide what to do with him - kill him or carve the scars on Astarion's back into Cazador's and then use him as a sacrifice in the ritual.
参考译文战斗结束后,阿斯代伦站在败北的卡扎多尔面前。他将尚在棺中恢复的昔日主人拖了出来,接下来必须决定该如何处置他:是就此杀死卡扎多尔,还是把自己背上的伤痕刻到对方身上,让卡扎多尔代替自己成为飞升仪式的祭品。
Then tell me how to complete the ritual.
参考译文那就告诉我,该如何完成仪式。
You think me a fool? That I would allow anyone to usurp me, speak the words, and ascend in my place?
参考译文你以为我是傻子吗?以为我会容许别人篡夺我的位置、念出咒文,取代我完成飞升?
The runes I carved into your flesh bind you and all seven thousand souls to the ritual. Complete it and those bearing the scars will be sacrificed - you included.
参考译文我刻进你血肉的符文,将你和那七千个灵魂一同束缚在仪式之中。仪式一旦完成,所有身负伤痕的人都会被献祭——包括你。
*You can see from the glee in his face that he's telling the truth and he thinks you have no way forward. But then again, he didn't say whom the scars had to be carved into...*
参考译文你从他幸灾乐祸的神情中看得出,他说的是真话,也认定你已经无路可走。但话说回来……他可没说这些伤痕必须刻在谁的身上。
Then you can bear my runes and be sacrificed in my place.
参考译文那么,你可以承受我的符文,代替我成为祭品。
No. You do not have the skill.
参考译文不。你没有这样的本事。
Your knife will slip. You will misremember a rune. A single mistake and you will be consumed.
参考译文你的刀会打滑,你会记错一道符文。只要犯一个错,你就会被吞噬。
Those scars... great pain's been visited upon you. I'm sorry.
参考译文那些伤疤……你受了太多苦。实在令人难过。
Enter your companion's mind and see the scars through their eyes.
参考译文进入同伴的意识,借他们的双眼看清那些伤痕。
*Your minds join and your two selves become one. You can feel the knife in your hand, but also see the scars on your back.*
参考译文你们的意识相连,两个自我合而为一。你既能感到手中的刀,也能看见自己背上的伤痕。
*If you complete this ritual, there will be no atonement. Seven thousand of your own kind, dead by your hand. All but Cazador yourself.*
参考译文一旦完成这场仪式,便再无赎罪的可能。七千名同类将死于你手——而你自己,将成为另一个卡扎多尔。
Carve the symbols into his back.
参考译文把符文刻到他的背上。
What are you doing? Don't - hrgh!
参考译文你在做什么?别——呃啊!
Argh... ARGH!
参考译文啊……啊啊!
*The link between your minds fades and you're left looking at the fresh runes. Let's hope you copied them accurately...*
参考译文你们意识之间的连结逐渐消退,眼前只剩下新刻出的符文。希望你临摹得足够准确……
Ungrateful child. Wretched child...
参考译文忘恩负义的孩子。卑劣的孩子……
Leave it, Astarion. The butcher's bill is too steep, no matter what power it grants you.
参考译文收手吧,阿斯代伦。无论能获得怎样的力量,这场屠戮的代价都太过惨重。
03.1A 完成仪式,在盖尔的质问后结束。
03.1B 放弃仪式,随后进入 04 决定被囚衍体的命运。
Begin the ritual.
参考译文开始仪式。
Kill Cazador and abandon the ritual.
参考译文杀死卡扎多尔,放弃仪式。
No, do not do this. Please!
参考译文不,别这么做。求你了!
Ecce dominus!
参考译文看哪,吾主!
Has animas offero in sacrificio...
参考译文我将这些灵魂献作祭品……
*You can feel the prisoners' power start to flow through you - racing through your veins, even as their screams ring in your ears.*
参考译文你感到囚徒们的力量开始涌入体内,在血管中奔流,而他们的惨叫仍在耳畔回荡。
No! Brother, please!
参考译文不!兄弟,求你了!
Nunc volo potestatem quam pollicitus es mihi...
参考译文现在,我索取你曾许诺给我的力量……
ARGH!!!!
参考译文啊——!
*For the first time since you can remember, the gnawing pain in your stomach is gone. You can feel new strength in your body and new power at your fingertips.*
参考译文这是你记忆中第一次,腹中啃噬般的痛楚消失了。你感到新的力量充盈身体,在指尖涌动。
This feels incredible. I'm a new person.
参考译文这感觉难以置信。我已经焕然一新。
Bow before the greatest vampire the Sword Coast has ever seen!
参考译文向剑湾有史以来最伟大的吸血鬼俯首吧!
It doesn't feel much different, honestly.
参考译文说实话,感觉并没有太大不同。
*You stand, relishing the silence. You can hear nothing but the drip of blood and the pounding of your newly reborn heart.*
参考译文你站起身,品味着这片寂静。耳边只剩鲜血滴落的声音,以及新生心脏的怦然跳动。
All those lives... was it truly worth it?
参考译文那么多条命……真的值得吗?
No - urgh!
参考译文不——呃啊!
[Panting]
参考译文[喘息]
Is... is it over?
参考译文结……结束了吗?
Is he...?
参考译文他是不是……?
Yes. He's gone.
参考译文是。他死了。
What does that mean for us?
参考译文那我们怎么办?
It means you're free - you can do whatever you want.
参考译文意思是你们自由了——想做什么都可以。
Whatever we want? We can... feed?
参考译文想做什么都可以?我们可以……进食?
And the ones we brought here? What are you going to do with seven thousand spawn?
参考译文那我们带到这里的人呢?七千名衍体,你打算如何处置?
*Cazador's staff controlled everything during the ritual. If it controls the cells too, you could decide their fate.*
参考译文仪式期间,一切都由卡扎多尔的权杖控制。如果它也能控制牢门,你便可以决定囚徒们的命运。
条件 · 已知古尔孩子被囚禁
*Seven thousand vampire spawn, including the stolen children of the Gur hunters. What will you do with them all?*
参考译文七千名吸血鬼衍体,其中还包括被掳走的古尔孩子。你要如何处置他们?
Use the staff to set the prisoners free.
参考译文用权杖放走囚徒。
For the best. They may not be the safest types to unleash, but their deaths would have weighed heavy on you.
参考译文这样最好。放他们自由或许并不安全,但他们的死会成为你沉重的负担。
You did the right thing. Although they will need guidance.
参考译文你做了正确的事。只是他们还需要引导。
There's only one place seven thousand spawn can feed without drawing attention.
参考译文只有一个地方能让七千名衍体进食而不引人注意。
We will lead them into the Underdark. They will not be safe, but at least they will have a chance.
参考译文我们会带他们前往幽暗地域。那里未必安全,但至少他们还有一次机会。
Thank you, brother.
参考译文谢谢你,兄弟。
04.1B 可以选择用法杖杀死被囚衍体;04.1C 可以摧毁法杖,让他们继续被囚禁。两项均有其他人物的后续反应,但没有盖尔针对该选择的特殊回应,随后与 04.1A 汇入 04.2。
There is nothing more to be done here. High time we left.
参考译文这里已经没有更多事可做了。我们早该离开了。
