‘Whereis Lord Ssardak?’ the second Warrior said. ‘Did you see him arrive?’
“领主（这个可能有问题）在哪里？”第二个武士说道“你看见他抵达了吗”
Thefirst Warrior gestured towards the woods. ‘His ice capsule came down nearby.’
第一个武士指向森林“他的冰舱就掉在附近”。
Theyset off at once, lumbering through the snow towards the darkness of the wood.
他们立刻出发，砍伐着树木穿过大雪，向着森林的深处进发。
Behindthem, a curious figure peered out from behind a scraggy bush. He brushed hisicy hair out of his eyes, and hurried after the Warriors, careful to keep wellback and out of sight. When the Warriors disappeared into the trees, he waitedfor a while, anxious not to make any sound that would
giveaway his presence, then followed.
在他们之后，一个好奇的身影躲在灌木丛后仔细的向外瞧着。他把结冰的头发从眼前拨去，追赶着武士，小心的保持在他们视线之外的距离。当武士消失在了丛林之中，他稍等了一会，尽管他很焦急，但却依然没有发出任何可能泄露他位置的声音，然后他跟了上去。

Immediately,it was dark. The skeletal branches and gnarled trunks of the trees screened outthe pale light of the moons. Ahead of him, he could hear the massive creaturesforcing their way through the undergrowth and vegetation.
眼前的景物立刻暗了下来。透过树的分枝与扭曲的树干漏下点点暗淡的月光。他可以听到，在他前面，那巨大的生物正强行的从灌木丛和植物中通过。
Thethird meteor had ripped a hole through the canopy of the wood. The huge ball ofice seemed to glow in the moonlight shining down through the gap between thebroken trees. A thick mist clung to the ground as the ice slowly steamed andthawed. The two Warriors marched up to the ice, mist swirling round their feet.In unison they raised their huge fists, and together smashed them into the ice.
第三颗流星从森林的上空撕开了一个口子。那巨大的冰球通过缺口，在月光的映衬下，在破坏的树木之间闪耀着。伴随着冰球冒着蒸汽缓慢的解冻，周围的空间开始升腾起一层浓雾。两位武士整齐的站在冰球之前，薄雾环绕于他们的脚间。他们同时伸出巨大的拳头锤向冰球。
Watchingfrom nearby cover, the man who had followed them into the wood saw the Warriorstearing away the ice. Finally, they stepped back, and a third figure emergedfrom the shattered remains of the meteor. Slightly shorter than the Warriors,sleeker in close-fitting armour that was somehow elegant rather than brutal. Adark cloak hung beneath and behind his elongated helmet, and when he spoke hisvoice was less laboured than the Warriors’ rasping tones.
跟随他们深入森林中的男人，在附近目睹了这两个武士撕开了冰球。最后，他们后退了几步，第三个身影从流星破碎的残骸中出现。他比武士的身形更加瘦小，身着一套保养的很好的合体贴身甲胄，让人莫名的感到优雅的气质而不是充满野蛮与凶残。一条黑色的披风系在他的头盔之下，飘于身后，当他说话之时，他的声音明显比武士吃力的腔调更加的流利。

‘Essbur,Zontan – you have done well.’TheWarriors saluted their lord, fist to breastplate.
“Essbur,Zontan你们做的很好”寒冰武士用拳头拍打着胸部，向他们的领主表达着欢迎。
‘Thecomponents will arrive soon,’ Essbur – the first Warrior to arrive – hissed.
“其他人将稍后抵达”第一个抵达的武士Essbur嘶嘶的说道。
‘Wemust observe,’ Zontan added.
“我们必须观察一下”Zontan补充道。
LordSsardak nodded. ‘Thesetrees obscure the view. Show me the quickest way out of these woods.’
领主Ssardak点点头说道：“这些树木挡住了我的视野，给我指出一条最快离开森林的道路。”
TheWarriors turned and headed laboriously back the way they had come. The manwatching them pressed himself back into the undergrowth and held his breath.Only when the Warriors had passed did he let out a relieved stream of steamingair. It choked off as a heavy fist clamped down on his shoulder.
武士们率先费力的转身走向他们来的道路。那个男人看着他们一点点的靠近，随即屏住呼吸，将身子压低藏入灌木丛中。当他们都已经从他的身边走过，这个男人才如释重负的吐出了一口热气。但这一切却戛然而止，就像一个重拳突然压在了他的肩膀上一样。
Hewasn’ta short man, but his head was barely up to the shoulder of the Warrior thatheaved him out of his hiding place. The creature’s free arm was raised, ready to hammerdown. The man braced himself for the impact. ‘Wait,’ Ssardakordered. He strode up to the man and looked down at him. ‘He may be useful.’ Then he turned andcontinued to follow the other Warrior on his way. The Warrior dragged the man roughlyafter them.
他并不是一个身高矮小的男人，但他的个头却也仅仅只到武士肩膀的位置，然后武士伸出手将他从躲藏的地方揪了出来。这个生物举起了空闲的手，准备捶击他。这个男人在冲撞中勉强的维持着他的身形。”等一下”Ssardak命令道。他大步走向男人，俯视着他说道“他可能会有用”然后他转身，跟上了另一个武士的步伐。这个武士紧随其后，而那个男人则被粗鲁的拖行在他们的身后。

今天很不好意思，楼楼这边出了点状况，心情很差，今天就翻译这么一点了，也不好@，早上起来再补，抱歉

Atthe edge of the wood, the four figures paused. Two huge Warriors, the tall, aristocratic Ice Lord, and the dishevelled human in adamp, shapeless coat.
这四个身影停在了森林的边缘。两位巨型的武士，一位充满贵族气质的高大的寒冰领主，和一位身着一件湿漉漉已经不成形的外套的人类。
‘Whoare you?’ Lord Ssardak demanded.
“你是谁？”领主Ssardak询问道。
Theman shrugged. ‘Ilive here, that’s all. Saw the fireballs. Came to look.I didn’t mean any harm. I wasn’tgoing to interfere. Can I go home now?’ he addedhopefully.
这个男人耸耸肩说道：“我仅仅只是住在这里，看见这边有火球就过来看一下，我并没有要伤害你们的意思，也没有想来打扰你们，请问我现在可以回家了吗?”他充满期待的问道。
Ssardakleaned down, so close that the man could see his own thin face reflected in thedark shields over the Ice Lord’s eyes.”I am Lord Ssardak.“ These are my Warriors – Essbur and Zontan. If you try toescape from us, they will kill you. Do you understand.’
Ssardak弯下腰，他靠的是如此的近，以至于这个男人可以清晰的从寒冰领主眼前深色的护目镜上看到自己瘦削的脸庞。“我是Ssardak领主，他们是我的战士—Essbur和Zontan，如果你想要试图逃跑的话，他们将会杀了你，你明白了吗？”
Theman nodded furiously. ‘Whatdo you want?’
这个男人拼命的点着头，说道“你们想要知道些什么”
‘First,your name.’
“首先，说出你的名字”
‘Youcan call me Elias.’
“你可以叫我Eilas”
‘Youknow this area?’
“那你对这块土地熟悉吗？”
Eliasnodded. ‘I’ve lived here a long time. I know it as well as anyone.’
Elias点头答道：“我在这里生活了很长的一段时间，我对这块土地了如指掌”
Ssardakgave a hiss of satisfaction. ‘Then watch.’ He jabbed his fist at the sky – where four tiny points of light were streaking between the stars,growing steadily brighter and larger.
Ssardak发出了满意的嘶嘶声。“那么，看”他将他的拳头指向空中—在群星间有四个微弱的亮点波动着，正在逐渐的变亮、变大。
‘Whatare they?’ Elias breathed. ‘Shootingstars?’
“他们是什么？”Elias低声说道“炮弹星？”（这个地方应该有问题）

Theystood in silence as the capsules sped towards them, screeching overhead anddisappearing into the distance in a blaze of fire. Sparks and flame shot upfrom each of the four impact points further down the valley.
相对无言，他们看着太空舱加速向他们冲来，伴随着一阵发动机的轰鸣声，从他们头顶滑过，随着一场烈焰消失在了远方。山谷里的四个冲撞点进一步爆出了闪光和火焰。
‘Nowtell me,’ Ssardak said, turning to Elias, “and I know that this close to the Truth Field you cannot lie – can you help us find the capsules?”
“现在，告诉我，你能帮我找到这个太空舱吗”Ssardak转向Elias问道，“而且我知道这块地方离真实之地很近，所以你不可能说谎”
‘Yes,’ Elias said. ‘But so many meteors in onenight – other people will have noticed. They’ll be looking too.’
“是的”Elias说道，“但是一个晚上有这么多流星掉下来，势必会引起一些人的注意，他们一定会去查看的”
‘Youmean the Doctor?’
“你是指博士？”
Eliasnodded. ‘Anythingout of the ordinary, and he’s right in the middle ofit.’
Elias点头回答，“一旦发生任何不同寻常的事情，他就会在那里”
‘Youknow the Doctor?’ Essbur hissed.
“你很了解博士？”Essbur嘶嘶的说道。
‘Everyoneknows the Doctor. Is he why you’re here?’
“所有人都知道博士，他就是你们在这里的原因吗？”
‘Whyelse?’ Ssardak snarled.
“还有其他的理由吗？”Ssardak咆哮着说道。
‘ThenI’ll help you,’ Elias said. He sighed and nodded.
“那么，我会帮助你的“Elias 叹着气点头答道。

Ssardak regarded him closely. ‘Youwould betray your own people?’
Ssardak走近凝视着他，“你会背叛你的同伴么？”
‘I’ve done that before,’ Elias said. There wasa tinge of sadness in his tone.
“在这之前，我就已经这样做过了”Elias回答道。他的语气之中带着一种淡淡的哀伤。
‘Why would you help us?’ Zontan demanded.
“为什么你要帮助我们？“Zontan问道。
‘Life has changed here since the Doctor came. Before that, if the stories are true,Christmas was a peaceful, happy place. Since the Doctor arrived, I’ve been scared for my life almost every day.’
“自从博士来到了这里，一切都变了。在这之前，如果传说是真的的话，圣诞小镇是一个快乐、和平的地方。然而自从博士到来，我每天都需要为我的生活而担惊受怕！”
‘Sowe can trust you?’ Ssardak said.
“所以我们可以信任你么？”Ssardak问道。
‘I’ll help you find your ice capsules,’ Eliassaid.
“我会帮助你们找到你们的冰制太空舱的”Elias回答道。
‘That much is evidently true. But will you betray us? Will you tell the Doctor aboutus, about the capsules?’
“这肯定是真的，但是如果你背叛我们呢？如果你告诉博士关于我们的事情，关于太空舱的事情呢？”
Elias smiled thinly. He wiped the snow from his forehead and eyebrows with the backof his hand.‘Likeyou said, I can’t lie, not here. And I promise you, Ishan’t say a word to the Doctor about you or about whatyou’re doing.’
Elias轻轻的笑了笑。他用脏兮兮的手擦去了额前和眉毛上的雪花，“就像那你所说的一样，我不能说谎，起码在这里不行。而我可以向你保证，我不会向博士说任何关于你们或者你们正在做的事情”
‘Then you will help Essbur and me recover the capsules, ’Ssardak said. ‘Serve us well, and we shall let you live.’
“那么你将会帮助我和Essbur找回这些太空舱”Ssardak说道，“你对我们很有用，相应的，我们会饶你一命”
Elias nodded. ‘The nearest of your capsules looked like it came down the Glade of Everdell, just pastthe frozen brook. I’ll take you there.’He started out across the moonlit landscape, wading through thethick drifts of snow. When he glanced back, he saw that Ssardak and Essbur wereclose beside him. But the other Warrior, Zontan, had turned and was stridingoff in the other direction.
Elias点点头，“你们最近的一个太空舱看上去是掉落在了Everdall的沼泽地里。只需要穿过冰冻的小溪就可以了，我会给你们带路的。”他开始穿过月光下土地，艰难的从厚厚的积雪上通行。当他用余光向后看去时，他发现Ssardak和Essbur两人正紧跟在他的身后。但另一个武士Zontan却转身大步向另一个方向走去。
‘He’s going the wrong way,’ Elias protested. ‘None of your capsules fell back there. Where’s he going?’
“他走错了”Elias说道“你们的太空舱没有一个落在这后面，他这是去哪里？”
‘It need not concern you,’ Ssardak hissed. ‘Zontan has a different mission to complete. But we are all workingto the same ends.’
“这与你无关”Ssardak嘶嘶的说道“Zontan有一个不同的任务需要完成，但我们殊途同归”
Essbur nodded, reaching out a massive arm and pushing Elias forwards. ‘The death of the Doctor’
“都是为了博士之死！” Essbur点点头，伸出巨大的手臂将Elias推搡的向前。

第二章到此就结束了，看起来Elias似乎对博士有些意见~明天开第三章

Chapter 3
A group of about a dozen people made their way through the snowy fields towards the ridge. Despite the bright moonlight, they carried lanterns. Several of them had shovels. As they reached the top of the ridge, they split into pairs, each heading off in a different direction to continue their search。
一个由12个人组成的小团体正在穿过积雪覆盖的山脉。尽管月光是如此的明亮，但他们仍然手拿着提灯，他们中的一部人还带着铁铲。当他们抵达山脉的顶端之时，他们两人一小队转向不同的方向分散开来，继续他们的寻找。
‘If he’s so keen to find these fireballs,’ Mattias grumbled, ‘why isn’t the Doctor with us?’
“如果他对寻找这些火球是如此的敏锐”Mattias抱怨的说道“为什么博士没有和我们一起行动？”
‘He can’t be everywhere at once,’ his wife Maria pointed out. ‘But he’s searching too. If he thinks these fireballs are important, then we should look for them. The Doctor will find us soon, you’ll see. He’ll be with some of the others now, and I bet they’re not half as grumpy as you are.’
“他不可能每次都第一时间赶到的”他的妻子Maria说道“但是如果他认为这些火球很重要，他也会去寻找，那么我们也应该去寻找他们。你会发现，不久之后博士就会找到我们。他现在肯定和一些其他人在一起，而且我敢打赌，他们脾气比你好多了”
‘I didn’t have to come,’ Mattias grunted.
“我本来不需要来的”Mattias嘀咕道。
Maria linked her arm through his as they walked onward through the snow. ‘No, you didn’t. But here we are.’
“是的，你不需要，但是现在我们在这里~”Marid牵起了他的手向前穿行与大雪之中。
Two hours later, Maria was the one complaining. She was cold and tired, and they had found nothing. ‘Perhaps we should just give up and go back home,’ she said.
两个小时后，Maria变成了那个抱怨的人。她很累也很冷，而且他们一无所获。“也许我们应该放弃寻找然后打道回府”她建议道。

Asshe spoke, a tall, lanky figure hurried up to them, bounding through the snowwith enthusiasm.
话音未落，一个高个瘦削的身影跳跃着从雪中穿梭，热情的冲向了他们。
‘Giveup? We can’t give up now. We’ve only just started.’ The Doctor turned to look up at thesky, opening his mouth wide to let several snowflakes fall in. He snapped hismouth shut. ‘Oh, taste that snow. That’s a good harvest of snow, that is.’
“放弃？我们现在不能放弃，这一切才刚刚开始”博士转身看向了天空，打开了嘴让一些雪花飘入。突然他合上了嘴唇，说道“噢~尝尝这些白雪，换而言之，这真是一场大雪。”
‘Whyare we looking for these fireballs?’ Mattias demanded. ‘What use are they to us?’
“为什么我们需要寻找这些火球？”Mattias问道“它们对我们有用吗？”
‘Tous? Nothing at all.’
“对于我们？一点也不”
‘Wellthen.’
“那么”
‘Butthey must be useful to someone, or else why send them? Tell me that, eh – why send them?’
“但是它们肯定对一些其他人有用，或者来说，为什么需要发送它们？嗯，现在告诉我，为什么需要发送它们？”
‘Allright,’ Maria challenged. ‘Why?’
“对！”Maria反问道“为什么？”
‘Well,I don’t know,’ the Doctor admitted. ‘But I think we should find out, don’t you? Don’t answer that,’ he added quickly. ‘Look, I’ve told the others we’ll meet in the hollow behind Preacher’s Clump in an hour, all right? Johann is setting a fireand Old Thom said he’ll organise a barbecue breakfast. That’s what’s so great about the long nights here – you’re never far from breakfast. So I’ll see you there, yes?’
“好吧，我不知道”博士承认道，“但是我认为我们需要找到原因，你不是吗？现在，不要回答！”博士加快语速说道“看，我已经通知了其他人一小时后在传教士的聚集地前的山谷集合，好了！Johan正在安装一个庆祝焰火装置，老Thom说他会组织一顿烤肉早饭。在长夜过后，这一切真的是太好不过了—你离早饭不远了，我们会在那里碰面，对吧？”
‘Yes, all right,’ Mattias agreed. He couldn’t help smiling at the Doctor’s energetic demeanour.
“是的”Mattias认同道。博士精力充沛的行为让他情不自禁的微笑了起来。
TheDoctor himself was already hurrying off back through the snow, half running,half jumping. ‘Andif you find a fireball, bring it along,’ he called back. ‘So long as it’s not too hot to handle.’
博士已经准备重新冲回雪中，跑到一半他向后喊道“如果你们发现了一个火球，将它一起带过来，已经过去太久了，现在对于搬运来说它一点也不热。”
Thebest way to recover the ice capsules before anyone else stumbled across themwas to split up.
在有人偶然发现它们之前恢复冰制太空舱的最好方法便是分散他们（这句话应该有点问题）。

今天更到这里，明日再译

楼楼终于爬回来了- -开始工作

The best way to recover the ice capsules before anyone else stumbled across themwas to split up.
在有人偶然发现它们之前，找到冰制太空舱的最好方法便是分头行动。
Essbur was reluctant to allow the human to go off on his own, but Ssardak seemed unworried. Later, as Essbur returned with the second of the ice capsules, therewas no sign of Elias.
Essbur并不愿意让这个人类独自离开,但是Ssardak看上去一点也不担心。不久之后，当Essbur带回第二个冰制太空舱之时，这里并没有Elias的痕迹。
‘He will not betray us,’ Ssardak assured the Warrior. ‘He gave us his word.’
“他不会背叛我们的”Ssardak自信的对着武士说道“他给了我们他的承诺”
‘Is the word of a human to be trusted?’
“一个人类的诺言会是真实的吗?”
Ssardak’s thin lips twisted into a slight smile. ‘Not to trust him would be dishonourable. But he gave usassurances and the Truth Field means he was not lying.’
Ssardak的薄唇扯出了一个轻微的笑容“如果他说谎了，他就是无耻的。但他给了我们他的承诺，而真实之地意味着他不能对我们说谎”
‘Whatif he does not return?’
“如果他一去不回呢”
‘Itmakes little difference,’ Ssardak said. ‘But here he is.’ Sure enough, Elias was stumbling back towards them through the snow. He stopped tocatch his breath before speaking. ‘There are people,’ he gasped at last. ‘From the town. I think they’re searching for your ice capsules too.’
“这就几乎没什么差别了”Ssardak说道“但是他在这里~”果然如此，不久之后，Elias跌跌撞撞的穿过雪地向着他们走来。他在说话停了下来，试图调整着呼吸“这里有其他人”他最后喘着气说道“从小镇来的，我觉得他们也在寻找你们的冰制太空舱。”
‘Didthey see you?’ Essbur demanded.
“他们看见你了吗？Essbur问道。
‘Iknow how to stay hidden when I want to.’
“当我想要藏起来的时候我知道该怎么做”
‘Haveyou located any of the capsules?’ Ssardak asked.
“那你有没有找到其他的太空舱？”Ssardak问道。
Eliasshook his head. ‘You?’
Elias点点头说道“你呢”
‘Two,’ Ssardak said. ‘They were close together.’
“两个”Ssardak说道“他们离的很近”
