【战锤40k同人作品翻译】Ennui 第十️二章:呼吸 Breath(6)
“O’ Emperor, Lord and Master of Mankind, keep these names and bear them to glory,” Alessandra’s voice was tight and strained, and I could hear the tears in it. “May my Sisters fight ever by thy side in thy eternal war against the adversaries of man, and may… may they look kindly upon me, til we stand side by side once more at thy right hand.”
Uncertainty was not something I was accustomed to.
This pain she felt, there was nothing I could do to alleviate it, nothing I could grant her that would lift the yoke of her survival from her shoulders.
“And when her time is nigh, though it be not thy province, I beg thee, O’ Faultless One, to stretch out thy hand to this benighted world-”
I froze, a chill riding up my spine as Alessandra continued to pray to her dead Emperor.
“-and bear hence the xenos soul of Isarae of the Aeldari away from the hunger of the Dark Gods, for she has shown me kindness and grace, and she has been gentle to me, and I would beg thee, God-Emperor on Holy Terra, to extend to her the smallest touch of thy infinite mercy.”
