【战锤40k同人作品翻译】Ennui 第十五章:堕落 Fallen(12)
The relief that stormed through my heart was almost a physical force as I let out a sigh. My fingers felt numb and my hands were shaking… I hadn’t wanted to believe that Isarae had killed any of my Order, but I also knew what she was. Isarae was not human, she was Eldar, and worse, Dark Eldar… worse than corsairs, worse than the enigmatic seers… they were a supposed race of piratical sadists who would emerge from nothingness to reave whole planets of their populations before vanishing back into their mysterious Webway.
And yet, I couldn’t reconcile what I knew about them with Isarae.
She was so gentle.
Well… I thought back to the murals she had painted out of the Orks, and amended that last thought considerably to: ‘she was gentle with me.’
With some difficulty, I pulled the dress over my head and began tugging on the familiar weight of the bodyglove. It was lightly armored and cushioned to hold the weight of powered armour against it, and the feel of it was comforting. I’d spent so long wearing the glove and the armour over it that it felt like a second skin. The compression fabric, too, helped keep my shaking muscles steady as I forced my still mostly-limp left arm through the sleeve.
