野蠻人Barbarian

     In my journey to catalogue the various denizens, civilizations, and fauna of our world, I have traveled far and wide, but never before have I been struck with such dismay as when standing upon the ramparts of the ancient fortress of Bastion's Keep. I came to see firsthand the barbarians, those near-legendary, immense, relentless, dual-wielding furies of combat dwelling upon their sacred Mount Arreat.

     我經常到世界各處去旅行，見過許多形形色色不同的民族、文化和生物，但是當我站上了巴斯提恩要塞的古代城牆時，我感受到了從未感受過的震撼和讚嘆。我原本是要到此見那些傳說中有著強大、殘酷以及用雙手憤怒的揮擊武器為保護阿瑞斯聖山而投身戰鬥的野蠻人。

     Instead, I stand here looking at a mountain that has been torn asunder by some extraordinary force. The sight, I must confess, is incomprehensible. Yet what I see before me cannot be denied.

     可是我站在這邊所看到的景象卻是一座被某種巨力給撕得支離破碎的山峰，此景，我必須承認，這是非常難以置信的，但這不可否認的確是我親眼所見的。

      What truly happened here? Where are those majestic warriors of old?

     這裡到底發生了什麼事? 以前那些強悍的戰士又去哪了?

    Though they were once misunderstood as simple, bloodthirsty invaders, the long and noble history of these proud people is now rightly acknowledged. And therein lies the greater tragedy here, for those of us familiar with the nobility of the barbarians remember too what they call their "vigil", the concept that lay at the very heart of their culture. The barbarians consider it their sworn duty to protect Mount Arreat and the mysterious object within. They believe that if they fail to uphold their duty to the great mount, or are not given a proper burial upon its slopes, they will be denied a true warrior's death, and their spirits shall roam the land without honor for all eternity.

    雖然野蠻人們曾經被誤解成頭腦簡單、嗜殺成性的侵略者，但如今他們那悠久且崇高的歷史終於被人們正確的了解。這裡已經成了慘烈的悲劇，記得那些有著崇高精神的野蠻人所說的"守護"，這思想是他們文化的核心。野蠻人把守護阿瑞斯聖山和裡面的神祕物體視為自己誓死的職責，野蠻人堅信如果無法履行守護聖山的職責，或是沒有被正式安葬於阿瑞斯聖山的斜坡上，他們在死後就不會被承認是一名勇士，而他們的靈魂也將失去榮耀並且永遠在這塊土地上遊蕩。

    If there are any barbarians left alive, they must truly be without hope. Perhaps this is the genesis of the rumors of monstrous things reported to resemble the barbarians in size and ferocity, but that are in reality nothing more than unreasoning, inhuman beasts. Could the destruction of not only their home but also their very beliefs have actually brought this magnificent race so low?

     如果還有倖存的野蠻人，他們肯定已經陷入了絕望之中。也許這只是一個謠言，傳聞有發現類似野蠻人體型的狂暴兇猛的怪物，但是我認為這不合常理，應該是非人的野獸。難道是那場災難摧毀了他們的家園也同時毀滅了他們的信仰，而導致讓這高傲的種族變成如此?
