【战锤40k同人作品翻译】 Ennui 第二十八章:异端 Heresy(6)
“那就一起走向我们的命运吧,”我说。
我引领着亚历莎走到外面,直到我们到达了广场的中心,在此我的相当一部分的人生被以最奇异的方式所决定了。就在这里我见到了自己会无可救药地爱上的女人。就在这里我遇见了我的救赎的星星之火。就在这里,为了亚历莎的笑容,我放下了剑刃并接受死亡的阴影和狂笑的神明的饥渴。
就在这里,亚历莎面对了她的信仰危机,要么保护我要么保护她的姐妹们。
就在这里,她以某种方式兼顾了两者。
因此,这趟奇异之旅的下一步应当在这里被决定,这也是再合适不过的了。
“满怀恩典的神皇呵,”亚历莎开口道,“请在这审判之时眷顾祢的女儿,愿照耀着扭曲的亚空间的光辉也能照耀我。”
在亚历莎说出最后一个字的那一刻,她把手伸进盔甲的领口,在护颈下滑动手指,重新激活了信标转发器。
原文:
There was a tension in the air.
I could feel it thrumming through Alessa’s entire body as she went through the ritual steps of preparing herself to meet with her sisters. Her lips moved in quiet prayer as she knelt on the floor of the den, and I took a moment to look around our small set of quarters.
To my surprise, I felt a touch of regret.
Perhaps it was simply my new attunement to my own emotions, but I found myself regretful that we would be leaving this little home of ours because, in my mind, it was ours.
Mine and Alessa’s.
This had been our home. It was where we had learned to trust one another, where we had spent so many days and nights talking, sparring, and simply being. I glanced dolefully back at our bedroom and sighed quietly. I could not help but recall all the nights spent with Alessa lying warm and safe in my arms, curled against me as I held her nightmares at bay with my embrace.
