Lord Janos gave Tyrion a wary look, then laughed and wagged a wedge of cheese at him. "You're a sly one, Tyrion. Thought you could trick me, did you? it takes more than wine and cheese to make Janos Slynt tell more than he should. I pride myself. Never a question, and never a word afterward, not with me."
杰诺斯伯爵有些警觉地看了提利昂一眼，接着笑了，拿着一块乳酪朝他挥舞。“提利昂，你这狡猾的家伙，想套我话，是吗？我告诉你，要我杰诺斯·史林特说出不该说的话，靠美酒和乳酪还不够咧。我这人啊，接了命令什么也不问，事后半个字也不说，这是我最引以为傲的地方。”
As with Deem.
“和狄姆一样？”
Just the same. You make him your Commander when I'm off to Harrenhal, and you won't regret it.
“完全正确。等我去了赫伦堡，你就让他接我的班，包你满意。”
Tyrion broke off a nibble of the cheese. It was sharp indeed, and veined with wine; very choice. "Whoever the king names will not have an easy time stepping into your armor, I can tell. Lord Mormont faces the same problem."
提利昂咬了一小口乳酪，这乳酪掺杂良酒，确是极品，味道的确够呛。“不管陛下让谁接班，恐怕都比不上您哟。话说回来，莫尔蒙大人也面临着同样的难题啊。”
Lord Janos looked puzzled. "I thought she was a lady. Mormont. Beds down with bears, that's the one?"
杰诺斯伯爵一脸疑惑。“我还以为她是女的，这莫尔蒙，不就是那个找熊当情人的家伙吗？”
It was her brother I was speaking of. Jeor Mormont, the Lord Commander of the Night's Watch. When I was visiting with him on the Wall, he mentioned how concerned he was about finding a good man to take his place. The Watch gets so few good men these days. Tyrion grinned. "He'd sleep easier if he had a man like you, I imagine. Or the valiant Allar Deem."
“我说的是她哥哥，现任守夜人军团总司令杰奥·莫尔蒙。前阵子我去长城拜访时，他正愁找不到合适人选接替自己的位子。这年头，黑衫军是越来越难找到人才了。”提利昂嘿嘿一笑，“假如他有个像您这样的厉害角色，或是咱们英勇的亚拉尔·狄姆，想必会睡得安稳一点。”
Lord Janos roared. "Small chance of that!"
杰诺斯伯爵大喝一声：“嘿，他想得倒美！”
One would think, Tyrion said, "but life does take queer turns. Consider Eddard Stark, my lord. I don't suppose he ever imagined his life would end on the steps of Baelor's Sept."
“可不是嘛？”提利昂道，“不过世事难料啊，大人，就拿艾德·史塔克来说吧，恐怕他作梦都料不到自己会死在贝勒大圣堂前的讲坛上呀。”
