《权力的游戏》大结局从君临的废墟开始
The final episode of Game of Thrones starts in the ruins of King’s Landing.
成千上万人丧生，因为丹妮莉丝在上一集焚烧了君临
Thousands of people are dead because last episode, Daenerys burned the city.
灰虫子在杀俘虏，他说兰尼斯特士兵都是「自由人」
And now Grey Worm is killing prisoners . He says that Lannister soldiers are “free men”
他们「选择」为瑟曦而战……但事实上，普通士兵并没有选择的权利
who “chose” to fight for Cersei . But random soldiers don’t really choose – they’re
他们都是被领主强征入伍的，在这点上，封建制和奴隶制算是臭味相投
forced into war by their lord . Feudalism is kinda similar to slavery.
不过，灰虫子没有换位思考，于是处决了那些兰尼斯特士兵
But Grey Worm has no sympathy, and kills the Lannisters.
提利昂看到了御前会议大厅，前几季他在这里任职
Tyrion sees the small council room, where he served in the early seasons.
这里布满了回忆：他的成功、失败、家人
There are so many memories here of Tyrion’s successes and failures and his family.
在一层薄得吹弹可破的碎砖下，提利昂找到了詹姆和瑟曦的尸体
Tyrion finds Jaime and Cersei’s bodies under a surprisingly light dusting of bricks.
提利昂曾试图保护他的哥哥和姐姐，免遭丹妮加害，但他依然支持丹妮开战
Tyrion tried to protect his siblings from Daenerys , but he supported her war because
因为他认为，她会让这个世界更加美好，而现在，丹妮莉丝却成了暴君
he thought she would make the world better . Now, Daenerys is a tyrant, and Tyrion’s
提利昂的家人也都死了
family’s dead anyway.
怎么说呢，提利昂这几季的所有努力只换来了家人的死亡
So all Tyrion’s work these last seasons have only brought death to his family and
和成千上万人的丧生
to thousands of others.
丹妮莉丝终于成长为一条羽翼丰满的巨龙
Daenerys goes full Targaryen.
她给士兵们做了胜利演说，场面堪比纳粹集会
She gives a victory speech to her soldiers, and it looks just like a Nazi rally, with
丹妮莉丝好比希特勒，只不过多了一条龙
Daenerys as Hitler – but with a dragon.
她说她「解放」了君临百姓，这话显然没过脑子
She says she “liberated” the people of King’s Landing, which is delusional – she
她明明屠杀了君临百姓，而且是在他们投降之后
killed those people, after they’d surrendered.
她还说：直到解放世界所有人，战争才算结束
And she says she’ll continue her war, to ‘liberate’ “all the people of the world”
她提到临冬城、兰尼斯港——这威胁到了琼恩和提利昂的老家
. She mentions Winterfell and Lannisport – threatening Jon and Tyrion’s family homes.
她还提到魁尔斯——在第二季，丹妮莉丝曾威胁摧毁那座城市
She also mentions Qarth – in Season 2, Daenerys threatened to destroy that city . So Daenerys
看样子，丹妮莉丝正准备给世界带来死亡和毁灭
is set to bring death and destruction to the world.
第一集中燃烧的螺旋，像极了坦格利安的家徽
That flaming spiral in Episode 1 does look like the Targaryen sigil.
见证奇迹的时刻到了—— 真正威胁世界的，并非冰冻的异鬼，而是龙家的烈焰
Turns out the real threat to the world isn’t icy white walkers – it’s Targaryen fire.
提利昂辞去了首相的职务
Tyrion quits as Daenerys’ Hand.
他的首相胸针就像詹姆的金手—— 提利昂不愿再效忠丹妮莉丝，她杀了他的家人
And his Hand pin looks like Jaime’s hand – Tyrion refuses to follow the woman who killed his family.
丹妮莉丝以叛国的罪名逮捕了提利昂 因为他此前释放了詹姆，并试图救出瑟曦
Daenerys arrests Tyrion for treason – because he freed Jaime, and tried to save Cersei .
艾莉亚警告琼恩——丹妮莉丝会加害他，因为他是铁王座的合法继承人
Arya warns that Daenerys is a threat to Jon, because Jon is the true heir to the Iron Throne
丹妮还会加害珊莎，因为珊莎不乐意丹妮称王
. Dany’s also a threat to Sansa, because Sansa won’t accept her as queen . So Daenerys
丹妮莉丝不仅是这个世界的威胁 同时还威胁着琼恩、提利昂，以及他们的家人
is not just a threat to the world, she’s a threat to Jon, and to Tyrion and their families.
提利昂告诉琼恩：瓦里斯没看错丹妮莉丝——她会黑化
Tyrion tells Jon that Varys was right about Daenerys – she went bad, and supporting
效忠她是错误的
her was wrong.
好吧，提利昂背叛了瓦里斯，却让这位最亲密的朋友死得毫无价值
So when Tyrion ratted out Varys, he got his friend killed for nothing . Jon tries to defend
琼恩为丹妮开脱，但提利昂争不以为然 他认为丹妮的屠杀是不公正的，更是毫无必要的
Dany, but Tyrion argues that her massacre was unjust and unnecessary . Tyrion says that
提利昂说，为了他们的家人和这个世界，琼恩应该杀了丹妮莉丝
for the sake of their families and the world , Jon should kill Daenerys – even though
虽然琼恩深爱着丹妮莉丝 再一次，琼恩必须在情爱和责任之间做出抉择
Jon loves Daenerys . So once again, Jon has to choose between love and duty . This is
正如琼恩为了击退野人，必须放弃挚爱耶哥蕊特
like when Jon gave up his love Ygritte to stop the wildlings.
而现在，为了拯救世界，琼恩必须杀了丹妮
Now, Jon has to kill Dany to save the world.
这个场景似曾相识——瓦里斯就曾劝奈德·史塔克承认叛国
This scene is similar to when Varys convinced Ned Stark to make a false confession – to
——为了保护家人，不惜玷污荣誉
do something dishonourable to protect his family.
直到瓦里斯提到珊莎的安全，奈德才被说服 而现在，当提利昂提到珊莎的安全
Ned was only convinced when Varys mentioned Sansa’s safety . And now Jon is only convinced
琼恩也终于被说服，他似乎在效仿奈德·史塔克
when Tyrion mentions Sansa’s safety . So Jon is following Ned Stark’s example, even
虽然奈德并非琼恩的亲生父亲，雷加·坦格利安才是
though Ned isn’t Jon’s father – Rhaegar Targaryen is.
但正如琼恩所说——善恶与出身无关，一切都是自主的选择
But as Jon says, people aren’t defined by their blood – they make their own choices
像奈德一样，琼恩决定做对的事情，即便那意味着失去一切
. And Jon chooses, like Ned, to do the right thing, even when it costs everything.
丹妮莉丝走近铁王座
Daenerys approaches the Throne.
这是她八季以来的夙愿，但铁王座跟预想的不大一样
She’s wanted this for eight seasons, and it’s not quite how she imagined.
她觉得铁王座应该更大，「一座剑山」，当然，在原著小说中
She thought the Throne would be bigger, “a mountain of swords” – and in the books,
铁王座的确大得多
the Throne is much bigger.
在第二季的不朽之殿，丹妮莉丝「看到」了铁王座，这个场景再次出现了
Daenerys had a vision of the Throne in Season 2, and this scene recreates it.
不同的是，这一次，丹妮莉丝触摸了铁王座
But this time, Daenerys touches the Throne.
面对丹妮，琼恩抗议处决俘虏，以及囚禁提利昂
Jon confronts Dany about the killings and imprisoning Tyrion.
丹妮反驳说，她必须惩罚提利昂，因为他与她的敌人密谋
Dany argues that she has to punish Tyrion for conspiring with her enemies – just like
正如琼恩处决抗命的人，只不过，丹妮屠杀君临百姓并不公正
Jon has killed people who disobeyed him . But Daenerys has no justification for killing the people of King’s Landing.
她说她要打造一个美丽新世界，她知道什么是公正，但别人无权选择
She just says she’ll build a new world , and that she knows what’s good, and other people
正如提利昂所说：年复一年，丹妮莉丝蓄积权势，处决异己
don’t get to choose . As Tyrion said, Daenerys has spent years gaining power and killing
并因此获得了回报
people and being rewarded for it.
追随者众星拱月，人们崇拜她犹如母亲
She’s been surrounded by adoring followers, people who worship her as messiah.
丹妮莉丝曾说，「内心的信念」支撑着她不懈前行
Daenerys once said that what keeps her going is “faith” in herself . Now her faith
而现在，信念蒙蔽了她，带她走向了邪恶
blinds her to the evil she’s committing.
她深信她的使命就是消灭暴君，自己却成了暴君
She’s so convinced of her destiny to destroy tyranny that she’s become a tyrant . Daenerys
丹妮莉丝劝琼恩与她一起，完成她的使命，作为姑侄统治银河系
tells Jon to join her, fulfil his destiny, and rule the galaxy together as nephew and
琼恩也做出了他的抉择
aunt – and Jon makes his choice.
前一秒他们还紧紧相拥，下一秒琼恩就一刀捅在了爱人的心口
They embrace one last time, and Jon stabs his lover in the heart.
跟亚梭尔·亚亥的传说一样，为了拯救世界，英雄牺牲了他的爱人
It’s like the legend of Azor Ahai, a hero who sacrificed his lover to save the world.
小说多次暗示，琼恩就是这个预言中的英雄
There are lots of hints in the series that Jon is this prophesied hero , and it seemed
预言似乎透露，他还将击败异鬼
as though that meant that he would stop the white walkers.
但最后，琼恩的使命却是拯救世界，免遭爱人的毁灭
But in the end, Jon’s destiny is to save the world from the woman he loves.
丹妮像耶哥蕊特一样倒在他的怀里，相较于情爱，琼恩再一次选择了责任
Dany dies in his arms like Ygritte – Jon chose duty over love.
黑龙卓耿目睹了丹妮莉丝的死亡
The dragon Drogon sees Daenerys dead.
她是它的母亲，她曾将它从蛋中孵出
She was his mother, she hatched him from his egg.
恍惚间，卓耿似乎决定烧死琼恩，但它转而焚毁了铁王座
And a for a moment it looks like he’ll kill Jon, but instead, Drogon burns the Iron Throne.
因为在某种程度上，正是铁王座害死了丹妮莉丝
Cause in a way, it was the Throne that killed Daenerys.
铁王座代表了权力，并以此腐化人心
The Throne represents power, and all the ways that power corrupts people.
瑟曦、乔佛里、劳勃、史坦尼斯……殊途同归，他们都毁于权力
We saw Cersei and Joffrey and Robert and Stannis all destroyed by power in different ways.
争夺铁王座的战争直接导致了维斯特洛的分裂 铁王座才是真正的敌人，正如曾经的夜王
Wars for the Throne tore Westeros apart, so the Throne is the real enemy, just as much
卓耿焚毁铁王座，完成了丹妮莉丝的夙愿——打碎历史的车轮
the Night King was. By destroying the Throne, Drogon finally ‘breaks the wheel’ that Daenerys talked about.
这也终结了维斯特洛无尽的争斗，至少，在象征意义上是这样
It ends the cycle of conflict in Westeros – symbolically, at least.
铁王座被龙焰焚毁，正如它曾由龙焰熔铸
And the Throne is destroyed in dragonfire, just like it was originally forged in dragonfire.
这与《指环王》中的「魔戒」不谋而合 魔戒同样象征权力，驱使人们为了它而丧失心智
It’s like the One Ring in Lord of the Rings – it also symbolises power, and drives people
而它也同样被曾熔铸它的烈焰所焚毁
mad to possess it, and is destroyed in the fires that forged it.
卓耿取走丹妮的尸体，飘然东去
Drogon takes Dany’s body and flies east.
丹妮曾以为维斯特洛是的故乡，但从未如此
Dany thought that Westeros would be her home, but it never felt like home . The east is
她在东方找到了爱戴和成功，那里才是她的归宿
where she found love and success, so that’s where she returns.
在第二季的幻象中，她撇下铁王座，走向了亡夫卓戈
In her vision in Season 2, Daenerys leaves the Throne, then goes to be with her dead
现在，在夜晚的国度，丹妮与爱人重聚
lover Drogo. Now, in death, Daenerys returns to her love.
几周后，维斯特洛的几大领主开会议事
Weeks later, a meeting is held with the high lords of Westeros.
珊莎代表北境，艾德慕代表河间地，罗宾代表谷底
There’s Sansa for the north, Edmure for the riverlands, Robin for the Vale, Gendry
詹德利代表风暴地，雅拉代表铁群岛，新亲王代表多恩
for the Stormlands, Yara for the Iron Islands, and the new prince of Dorne.
提利昂和琼恩是灰虫子的囚徒——提利昂的罪名是叛国，琼恩的罪名是弑君
Grey Worm has Tyrion and Jon prisoner – Tyrion for his treason , and Jon for killing Daenerys.
珊莎带来北境大军，以确保琼恩的安全，戴佛斯说……
Sansa has brought down an army of northmen to secure Jon . Davos says the Unsullied should
无垢者可以在河湾地建立自己的家族 这个提议实在太扯了——无垢者都是清一色的太监
start their own house in the Reach, which is a weird suggestion – cause the Unsullied
他们怎么繁衍子孙，世代相传？
are eunuchs, so how could they start a noble family?
灰虫子说，他只想为丹妮莉丝的死谋求正义
Grey Worm says he just wants justice for the murder of Daenerys – so you’d think that
蛤？灰虫子还没处死琼恩吗？
Grey Worm would’ve just executed Jon by now.
琼恩杀了灰虫子的女王，处罚只能是死刑
Jon murdered Grey Worm’s queen, surely the punishment is death.
灰虫子为何迟迟不动手，还来问琼恩家人的意见？
Why does he wait around to ask Jon’s family for their opinion?
提利昂说，他们需要选出一个新的国王，艾德慕说他很乐意称王
Tyrion says they need to choose a new king . And Edmure says he’d like to be king . Edmure
艾德慕是珊莎的舅舅
is Sansa’s uncle.
血色婚礼正是他的婚礼，此后的四季中，他一直被佛雷家族软禁
The Red Wedding was his wedding, then he was imprisoned by the Freys for half the series.
艾德慕就是来搞笑的，于是珊莎叫他坐下，然后山姆提议民主选举
Edmure’s kind of a doofus, so Sansa makes him sit . Then Sam suggests democracy.
他说，维斯特洛的国王，应该由全体国民选举产生 维斯特洛有些地方的确有民主选举
He says the King of Westeros should be chosen by all the people . Some parts of Westeros do have elections.
守夜人总司令由全体黑衣兄弟投票选出
The Night’s Watchmen vote to choose their leader.
铁群岛的国王也由岛上的领主选举产生
And the ironborn lords elect their king.
一听说农民也能参选，在座的领主都笑了
But the lords laugh at the idea of giving peasants a vote – it’s a big step from
从封建制到民主制，步子的确迈大了
feudalism to democracy.
提利昂说：只有故事，才能凝聚人心。布兰正好有一个伟大的故事——
Tyrion says that stories unite people , and Bran has a great story . As the magic three-eyed
作为三眼乌鸦，布兰就是这个世界的记忆 他深知过去，所以他应该领导维斯特洛走向未来
raven, Bran is the world’s memory, he remembers the past – so he should lead Westeros in
于是，在座的领主都同意布兰称王——这无疑是一个漫不经心的选择
the future . And all the lords agree to make Bran their king . Which is a very weird choice.
这些领主根本不了解布兰，更不知道三眼乌鸦是什么鬼
These lords don’t know Bran, and they don’t know what a three-eyed raven is – they have
他们与北境的旧神魔法没有半毛钱关系
no connection to the magic of the old gods of the north.
即便对他的家人来说，布兰也神秘得让人困惑
Even to his own family, Bran is confusing and mysterious.
而对这些南方领主来说，他不过是个怪异的番邦残废
To these southern lords, he’s a creepy foreign cripple.
再说了，布兰称王毫无法理可言
Bran also has no claim on the Throne.
近三百年来，维斯特洛的王位都是世袭的
For the last three hundred years, the Throne of Westeros passed down a line of succession.
丹妮莉丝就可以称王，因为她是疯王的女儿
That’s why Daenerys had a claim, as the daughter of the Mad King.
琼恩·雪诺称王更有法理性，因为他是疯王的王孙
Jon Snow has a better claim, as the son of the Mad King’s firstborn.
琼恩的故事更有说服力，他还是一个家喻户晓、深得人心的政治领袖
Jon also has a pretty good story, and he’s an actual political leader who people know
琼恩的铁王座合法继承人身份，是原著最精妙的构思
and support. Jon’s identity as the true heir to the Throne was a mystery built up throughout the whole
但在这个选王会上，压根儿没有人提出来
series , but his claim is not even mentioned in this scene.
提利昂说，去他妈的王位世袭 因为国王的儿子往往暴虐成性，比如乔佛里
Tyrion says they should ignore the line of succession, cause the sons of kings are often terrible like Joffrey.
终结王位世袭就是「打碎历史的车轮」——它废除了那个糟糕的制度
Ending the line of succession is ‘breaking the wheel’ , it’s stopping a bad system.
但，这可能会引发更多的冲突
But this could also lead to more conflict.
提利昂说，每任国王都将由维斯特洛的领主选出
Tyrion says that each new king will be chosen by the lords of Westeros . Which means every
但这意味着，每死一个国王，一切又将充满变数
time a king dies, there’ll be new uncertainty.
旧的制度至少可以维持皇室的稳定，而现在，任何人都能称王
At least the old system had the stability of a royal family – now, anyone can be king,
那么，每死一个国王，阿猫阿狗都有机会了
so it could turn into a free-for-all every time a king dies.
珊莎说，北境将独立于新的统一王国
Sansa says that the north will be independent from this new realm . All the other kingdoms
布兰·史塔克统治其他王国，而珊莎·史塔克统治北境
will be ruled by Bran Stark, but the north will be ruled by Sansa Stark.
整个会议就是史塔克家族的政变，结果是，史塔克家族统治了维斯特洛全境
This whole meeting is basically a Stark coup – their family takes over Westeros, and
鬼知道为什么，其他领主都毫无异议
for some reason, all the other lords agree.
他们的野心呢？都去哪儿了？
What happened to their ambitions?
在第六季中，雅拉和丹妮莉丝达成了协议——铁群岛将独立于七大王国
In Season 6, Yara made a deal with Daenerys that the Iron Islands would be independent
现在呢，她似乎被三眼乌鸦删除了这段记忆，转而向布兰俯首称臣
. But now she kinda forgets that and agrees to be ruled by Bran.
多恩向来以独立自诩，他们现在本该很有话语权
And Dorne has a long history of proud independence, and they should be in a strong position now,
毕竟他们在最近的战争中一兵未损
since their armies were untouched in the recent wars.
而这位不配拥有姓名的亲王，却光宗耀祖地向史塔克家族献出了自己的王国
But this unnamed prince hands his kingdom to the Starks.
整个故事讲的是——为了争夺权力，野心勃勃的贵族穷兵黩武、合纵连横
This whole story was about ambitious noble families fighting and scheming for power.
而现在，听完几句口水话 所有的贵族就心悦诚服地把权力交给了一个通灵的小屁孩
But now, in one scene, all the great houses agree to give up their power to a weird psychic
就因为「他有一个伟大的故事」
kid cause ‘he has a good story’.
或许大家都累了，也懵了，不想再争了
Maybe everyone’s just too tired and confused to argue right now.
但珊莎开了一个宣示主权独立的先河，可以想见，以后少不了叛乱
But Sansa set a precedent for kingdoms to secede, so there could be rebellions in the
这个新的王国弱不禁风，充满了变数，但还有希望
future. This brave new realm is delicate and uncertain, but there is hope.
国王布兰代表着另一种统治者
King Bran represents a different kind of ruler.
因为自负、暴虐、贪权，过去的国王总是难免黑化
Past kings have been bad because they’ve been proud or cruel or power-hungry.
反观布兰，他不在意权力，也不自负，更不暴虐
Bran doesn’t care about power . He has no pride or cruelty.
他全无人格可言——所以理论上，他将公正而且无私
He barely has a personality – so in theory, he’ll be fair and unbiased.
他会成为一个好的统治者，因为他并不是人——这不免让人沮丧
He’ll be a good ruler because he’s inhuman – which is a very depressing message.
《权力的游戏》一直在探讨人在善恶之间的挣扎
Game of Thrones was always about the struggle between human good and human evil within each
布兰称王这个结果似乎在暗示：根除人性中的邪恶，靠的不是真善美
person . Bran being king suggests that the solution to human evil isn’t human good,
而是……非人
it’s being not human.
詹姆和丹妮莉丝最终都黑化了，这让人不禁感叹 这一季对人性的真善美真是充满了恶意
And with the failure of Jaime and Daenerys, this whole season feels deeply cynical about the very possibility of human good.
布兰任命提利昂为首相，又一个诡异的选择
Bran makes Tyrion Hand of the King , which is another strange choice.
在丹妮莉丝的首相任期，提利昂完全辜负了她，最后还背叛了她
Tyrion totally failed at being Daenerys’ Hand, and he ended up betraying her.
提利昂在七国可谓臭名昭著：小恶魔、弑亲者、弑君者、叛国者……
And Tyrion’s widely hated as the Imp – a kinslayer, kingslayer, and betrayer.
实在难以置信，在场的哪位领主会把他的话当回事
It’s hard to believe that any of these lords even listened to Tyrion at this meeting . But
但布兰说，就任首相正是对提利昂的惩罚，他将用余生来弥补自己的过失 史塔克家族要求释放琼恩，但灰虫子只想为丹妮莉丝谋求正义
Bran says that Tyrion will be Hand as punishment for his crimes – he’ll spend his life fixing his mistakes . The Starks want Jon freed, but Grey Worm wants justice for Daenerys.
最后他们达成了妥协——琼恩将再次加入守夜人，就像第一季那样
So they make a compromise – Jon is sent to rejoin the Night’s Watch , where he was
守夜人的使命是守卫王国，对抗异鬼和野人
in Season 1. The purpose of the Watch was to defend the realm from white walkers and wildlings.
而现在，异鬼被消灭了，野人成了王国的朋友
Now, the walkers are gone, and the wildlings are friendly, so Tyrion says the Watch will
于是，提利昂解释说：守夜人将成为「私生子和亡命之徒」的收容所 因为杀了丹妮，琼恩深感愧疚和挣扎
just be like a penal colony for “bastards and broken men” . Jon feels guilty and conflicted
丹妮莉丝曾是他的家人和这个世界的威胁，但她信任并且深爱琼恩
for killing Dany. She was a threat to his family and the world, but Daenerys trusted and loved Jon.
丹妮莉丝是琼恩的女王，也是他的姑姑，琼恩因此成了弑亲者
Daenerys was Jon’s queen, and she was his aunt, which makes Jon a kinslayer – a terrible
弑亲在维斯特洛是非常恶劣的罪名，琼恩也因此成了坦格利安家族最后的血脉 伊蒙曾说：一个坦格利安孤悬人世，何其险恶 提利昂说，他会去拜访琼恩
crime in Westeros . This makes Jon the last Targaryen – and as Aemon once said, “A Targaryen alone in the world is a terrible thing” . Tyrion says he’ll visit Jon – that
他会爬上长城，在世界的边缘尿一发，他在第一季就干过这事儿
he’ll come and “piss off the edge of the world” , like when he visited in Season
码头上有几个多斯拉克人
1. We see some Dothraki at the docks.
多斯拉克人似乎在第三集中团灭了，但很显然，很多人活到了最后
In Episode 3, it seemed like all the Dothraki died , but apparently many survived to the
这伙人对丹妮莉丝极端忠诚，他们曾两次亲眼目睹她从火中涅槃重生
end. These guys were fanatically loyal to Daenerys, they saw her rise from fire twice – and
他们跟随她横跨世界，为她夺回维斯特洛，他们对丹妮的死如何回应？
they followed her across the world to win her Westeros – so how’d they react to
在第六季中，丹妮任命手下所有多斯拉克人为她的血盟卫、誓言守护者
Dany’s death? In Season 6, Dany made all her Dothraki her blood riders , her sworn protectors.
书中说：卡奥被杀后，他的血盟卫将誓死为他复仇
The books say that if a khal is killed, his blood riders live to avenge him . So surely
既然是琼恩杀了丹妮，为了荣誉，她的血盟卫们就必须杀了琼恩
when Jon killed Dany, her blood riders would be honorbound to kill Jon.
但在码头上，多斯拉克人与琼恩擦身而过
But here, the Dothraki just walk past Jon.
对于这个杀了他们卡丽熙的人，他们甚至无动于衷
They don’t even react to the man who killed their khaleesi.
丹妮已死，多斯拉克人现在又在干什么呢？
What are the Dothraki doing now that Dany is dead?
第一季中，卓戈死后，他的卡拉萨分崩离析、各自为战
When Drogo died in Season 1, his khalasar scattered into warring factions.
多斯拉克人以劫掠为生，在第一季中，丹妮莉丝就曾十分矛盾
The Dothraki way of life is to raid and pillage other people . In Season 1, Daenerys was conflicted,
因为她心里很清楚—— 用多斯拉克人入侵维斯特洛，会造成严重而长期的后果
cause she knew that invading Westeros with Dothraki would have serious consequences . But
但剧集完全没有交代，多斯拉克人与维斯特洛人怎么就和平共处了
the show never explores how the Dothraki and Westerosi get along – there’s only one
在第八季中，只有一个多斯拉克人拥有名字，而他只有一句台词
named Dothraki in Season 8, who only gets one line.
多斯拉克人在全剧中始终伴随丹妮，但到头来，他们甚至没有结局
The Dothraki were part of Dany’s story all series, but in the end they get no closure.
灰虫子与无垢者驶往纳斯岛，因为那里是弥桑黛的故乡
Grey Worm and the Unsullied sail to Naath . Because Naath is Missandei’s home.
他们曾憧憬一起回到纳斯岛，无垢者会保护纳斯人
They dreamed of returning there together , and for the Unsullied to protect the Naathi – so
灰虫子这是在缅怀他死去的女友
Grey Worm is honouring his dead girlfriend’s memory.
在原著中，纳斯岛的蝴蝶散布一种疾病，外来者染病后往往活不过一年
In the books, Naath has a disease carried by butterflies that kills foreigners, so hopefully
无所谓了，这在剧集中根本不是事儿
that’s not a thing in the show.
只是，既然无垢者去了纳斯岛，现在谁能强迫琼恩留在长城呢？
But now that the Unsullied are gone, who’s forcing Jon to stay at the Wall?
琼恩杀了焚烧君临的暴君，大多数人想必会乐于接受这个结果
You’d think most people would be glad that Jon killed the tyrant who burned King’s
劳勃国王就曾赦免了弑杀疯王的詹姆
Landing. King Robert pardoned Jaime for killing the Mad King.
布兰国王为什么不赦免弑杀疯女王的琼恩呢？
Why doesn’t King Bran pardon Jon for killing the Mad Queen?
或许，作为坦格利安最后的血脉，总会有人想拥立琼恩为王
As the last Targaryen, some people are gonna wanna make Jon king.
而留在守夜人，正好可以远离政事
Staying at the Night’s Watch can be a way of staying out of politics.
伊蒙正是为此加入了守夜人
That’s why Aemon joined the Night’s Watch.
多年前，伊蒙就差点被拥立为王，但他选择了加入守夜人
Years ago, Aemon was almost made King of Westeros, but instead, he chose to join the Watch, and
因此放弃了王位，以便他的弟弟称王
give up his claim, so that his brother could be king instead . Maybe Jon is staying at
或许，琼恩留在守夜人，正是为了让他亲爱的弟弟布兰顺利称王
the Watch so his brother Bran can be king.
为了王国的安定，琼恩再一次牺牲了自己
Another sacrifice for the good of the realm.
琼恩在码头告别家人，正如《指环王》里的佛罗多
Jon farewells his family at the docks, like Frodo in Lord of the Rings.
珊莎为琼恩被流放长城而道歉，这有点避重就轻
And Sansa apologises for having Jon sent north . She should probably also apologise for breaking
因为她不守信用，泄露了琼恩的身世，以算计丹妮莉丝
her oath and revealing Jon’s parentage to undermine Daenerys.
这件事一举两得——丹妮成为疯女王，琼恩流放长城，卸任北境之王
That contributed to the conflict that drove Dany mad and got Jon exiled – removing Jon
珊莎则如愿成为北境女王
as King in the North – and making Sansa queen.
艾莉亚在上一季指责珊莎，认为她算计琼恩，意图取代他统治北境
Last season, Arya accused Sansa of undermining Jon so that she can rule the north . And that’s
结果不幸言中了
kinda what ends up happening.
珊莎利用情报制造混乱、蓄积权势，这正是她的人生导师小指头的惯用伎俩
Sansa uses information to create chaos and climb to power – which is exactly the strategy used by her mentor Littlefinger.
在第一季，珊莎是个一心想当王后的天真小姑娘，后来却沮丧地发现
In Season 1, Sansa was a naïve girl who dreamed of being a queen . But she learned that queens
王后和王子并非想象的那么美好，为了活下来，珊莎开始学习政治谋略
and princes aren’t as wonderful as she thought . To survive, Sansa learned politics from
维斯特洛的三大恶人都是她的导师——小指头、瑟曦、拉姆斯
the worst people in Westeros – like Littlefinger and Cersei and Ramsay , and those people made
他们在珊莎的身上获得了永生 饱受虐待多年，珊莎终于大权在握，走上了人生巅峰
Sansa who she is now . So it is a triumphant moment that someone who was abused for so long finally gets power of her own.
毫无疑问，珊莎将成为北境少见的铁腕统治者
And no doubt, Sansa will be a strong ruler of the north.
他不会重蹈奈德、罗柏、琼恩的覆辙
She won’t make the mistakes that Ned and Robb and Jon made.
只是，取自施虐者的糟粕，不免成为邪恶的养料 艾莉亚说，她要离家远行，再也不回来了
But there’s something dark in that Sansa got here by embracing the lessons of her abusers . Arya says she’s not coming home – she’s
她要乘船一路向西，去发现新大陆，在第六季她就曾这样憧憬
sailing west, to discover new lands , as she said she would in Season 6 . So Arya is rejecting
艾莉亚在拒绝自己的过去——贵族小姐的生活、无面刺客的暴力
a life as a noble lady, and rejecting the violence of being an assassin.
她的故事与死亡形影不离，如今，他捅死了夜王，打败了死神 最后走上了一条自由冒险的不归路
Her story was always intertwined with death – but now she’s killed the Night King, she’s defeated death, and she chooses a life of adventure and freedom instead.
可她也抛弃了自己的家人
But she’s also abandoning her family.
在第六季，她说自己是艾莉亚·史塔克，临冬城才是她的家
In Season 6, she declared she was Arya Stark, and her home was Winterfell . But in Season
但到了第七季，当她试图找回家的感觉，却差点杀了自己的姐姐
7, when she tried to reconnect, she ended up almost murdering her sister.
一路走来，艾莉亚不得不承认，她再也回不了家了
After everything she’s been through, Arya feels unable to come home.
跟佛罗多一样，艾莉亚也变得不完整了 于是她驶向日落之海——这差不多是隐喻死亡
Like Frodo, she’s damaged, so she’s sails into the sunset sea – it’s kind of a metaphor
因为说实在的，所有西去的人，都有去无回
for death. And practically speaking, everyone else who’s sailed west hasn’t returned.
可能会跟哥伦布麦哲伦航行到世界尽头的传奇故事一样 然而，艾莉亚的航海经验远不如捅人那么丰富
Like this is some Columbus Magellan edge-of-the-world type shit, and Arya’s not exactly an expert
看样子，艾莉亚不打算安享晚年了
sailor. So Arya is letting go of her old lives.
但她没落下缝衣针，算是对家乡和家人留了一点念想
But she keeps Needle – a symbol of her home and family.
布兰发表了一个诡异的看法：长城和守夜人是琼恩一直以来的归宿
Bran makes a weird comment that Jon was exactly where he was “supposed to be” . At the
在选王会上，布兰又疯狂暗示：称王是自己毕生的宿命
council, he hinted that becoming king was Bran’s destiny all along . Bran has had
毕竟，布兰早就拥有预见未来的魔力呢
visions of the future before.
看样子，布兰早就把一切都安排好了—— 他把匕首送给艾莉亚，艾莉亚用匕首捅死夜王
And it seems like Bran guided recent events – he gave Arya the dagger than she used
他让山姆告诉琼恩他自己的身世，结果造成琼恩和丹妮的隔阂
to kill the Night King. And he told Sam to tell Jon about his parentage – which divided Jon from Dany, leading to
结果丹妮死了，琼恩被流放，布兰称王的所有障碍也就这么清除了
her death and his exile, clearing the way for Bran to become king.
和珊莎一样，布兰也通过散布消息制造冲突、获取权力 ——又一个小指头的徒弟
Like Sansa, Bran spread information that created conflict that gave Bran power – like Littlefinger
在第七季，小指头送给布兰一把匕首 布兰随后引用了小指头的金句：混乱是一把梯子
does. In Season 7, Littlefinger gave Bran Arya’s dagger, and Bran quoted Littlefinger’s line
小指头曾说：你必须时刻预见到所有的可能性
that “Chaos is a ladder” . Littlefinger once said you should see all possibilities
这正是布兰作为三眼乌鸦的本事
in your mind all the time , which is kinda what Bran does as the magic three-eyed raven.
这么说来，布兰真的操控了一切，只为称王吗？
So did Bran manipulate everything to become king?
如果布兰明知君临将被焚毁，却无动于衷，那简直太邪恶了呢
It would be pretty evil if Bran knew that King’s Landing would burn, but he made it
可这不正是三眼乌鸦为达目的不择手段的风格嘛
happen anyway. But that’s exactly the sort of magic Machiavellian shit that the three-eyed raven does.
这么说吧，上一任三眼乌鸦正是用他的绿之视野 将一个残废的男孩引诱到堆满骷髅的山洞
Like, the previous raven used visions to lure a crippled boy to a cave full of skulls, and
并删除他的人格，将他变成旧神的一个魔法化身
deleted his personality to make him an avatar for the magic of the old gods.
在原著中，三眼乌鸦外号「血鸦」 为了实现那些造福人类的半遮半掩的预言
In the books, the raven is called Bloodraven, and he has an even longer history of doing
多年来，三眼乌鸦无所不用其极
terrible things for the sake of some vague prophetic greater good.
布兰·史塔克早已不是那个崇拜骑士的少年，他已经死了
Bran Stark as we knew him is dead.
布兰说过，他早已不是布兰了，他现在是三眼乌鸦
Bran said that he’s not Bran any more , he’s the three-eyed raven now.
鉴于三眼乌鸦动不动就通灵附身的漫长历史 布兰还真有可能操纵了身边所有人，以获得权力 如今的布兰其实是一个傀儡……
So given the raven’s long history of psychic fuckery, it’s very possible that Bran has manipulated everyone around him to gain power, and what we call is Bran is now really a puppet,
一个宿主，一个蜂房，与同类组成一个远古旧神遥控世界的蜂巢
a host for the ancient psychic hivemind of the old gods.
如果三眼乌鸦永不放弃权力，结果会怎么样？
What if the raven never gives up power?
上一任三眼乌鸦说过：他已经活了一千多年，由鱼梁木根维持生命
The previous raven said he’s been alive a thousand years , sustained by the weirwood
或许，布兰会成为一个不朽的神皇 正如在游戏《战锤40K》和科幻小说《沙丘》中那样
roots. Maybe Bran will become an immortal god-emperor like in 40K or Dune.
在原著作者乔治·马丁早期的科幻小说中 到处是这种邪恶的蜂巢思维，做着各种乌七八糟的勾当
Author George Martin’s old sci-fi stories are full of evil hive minds doing crazy shit
但剧集很巧妙地遗忘了这些高阶魔法，布兰的形象也因此变得混沌
like this. But the show mostly avoids the high-magic stuff, so Bran is left ambiguous.
他到底是什么，他会成哪种国王，这些问题完全是开放式的
What he is and what kind of king he’ll be is open to speculation.
布蕾妮成了御林铁卫队长，对维斯特洛的骑士来说，这是最显耀的身份
Brienne becomes Commander of the Kingsguard – the highest and most respected position for a knight of Westeros.
御林铁卫的铠甲也有了一个新的图腾
And there’s a new symbol on the Kingsguard armour.
在坦格利安统治时期，图腾是龙
In Targaryen times, the armour had a Targaryen dragon.
在劳勃统治时期，图腾是王冠
Under Robert, it was a crown.
在托曼与麻雀共治时期，图腾是信仰之星
When Tommen joined the sparrows, it was the Faith’s star.
布兰是新任国王，于是图腾变成了三眼乌鸦
And now it’s a three-eyed raven, to represent Bran.
再一次，这让布兰称王显得无比诡异
This highlights again how weird it is to make Bran king.
三眼乌鸦是森林之子和旧神的神秘形象
Cause the raven is a mysterious mystical figure of the children of the forest and the old
只有北境人才信仰它们，而现在的北境，已经不属于布兰的王国了
gods, who are only* worshipped in the north – and the north isn’t even part of Bran’s
这就好比美国用加拿大枫叶象征美国总统，在文化和政治上都不和谐
realm. This’d be like if the USA used a Canadian maple leaf to represent their presidency – culturally and politically it’s just jarring.
作为御林铁卫队长，续写《白典》是布蕾妮的职责
But as Commander of the Kingsguard, it’s Brienne’s job to update the White Book,
《白典》记录了每一位御林铁卫的成就
which records the accomplishments of every Kingsguard knight.
詹姆的那一页没有卓越的成就，他一直希望能在死前干出一番事业
Jaime’s page had no great achievements , so he hoped to get some good deeds in there before
现在，布蕾妮开始续写詹姆的功劳簿——
he died . So now, Brienne fills in Jaime’s page.
他和平攻取了奔流城
He took Riverrun peacefully.
他洞悉了丹妮莉丝的战略
He outsmarted Daenerys’ war plans.
他帮助活人拯救世界于尸鬼军团
And he helped the living save the world from the dead.
布蕾妮还写道：詹姆南下拯救君临。这显然是睁眼说瞎话了
Brienne writes that Jaime rode south to save King’s Landing from destruction, which is not really true.
詹姆说过，他南下是为了回到瑟曦身边
Jaime said he went south to be with Cersei.
他说：她让人厌恶，我也一样
He said “She's hateful.
詹姆在临死前还说，他和瑟曦在一起，是世上唯一重要的事
And so am I” , and he died saying he and Cersei are all that matter in the world . Jaime
他的死不算圆满，他的救赎也终究失败了
died hateful, and his redemption failed.
原著有一条金句：生命才有意义，而非死亡
But one of the great lines in the books is that “Men’s lives have meaning, not their
詹姆的死是彻头彻尾的失败，不过他在世时也确实做过不少好事
deaths” . Jaime’s death was a failure, but he did great things in his life – and
或许，这就够了吧
maybe that’s what matters in the end.
正是在这个房间，詹姆将守誓剑送给了布蕾妮
This room is where Jaime gave Brienne the sword Oathkeeper, and showed her the trust
还给了她所需要的信任和尊重 虽然詹姆的人生以失败收场，但他的善行会口耳相传
and respect that she needed – so the legacy of Jaime’s good deeds lives on even if Jaime failed in death.
波德瑞克摇身一变成了御林铁卫骑士，这份嘉奖真是光宗耀祖
Also apparently Podrick has become a Kingsguard knight, and it’s great that he’s rewarded,
不过，御林铁卫骑士都要发下纯洁的誓言，他们从此不能有性行为
but Kingsguard knights swear vows of chastity, they’re not allowed to have sex – which
可惜了波德的巨屌，从此只能用来尿尿了
seems a terrible waste of Pod the Rod.
御前会议是新王国的政府机构
The small council is the government of this brave new realm.
提利昂是国王之手，戴佛斯是海政大臣，山姆是大学士，波隆是财政大臣
Tyrion is Hand, Davos Master of Ships, Sam is Grand Maester, Bronn Master of Coin, and
布蕾妮是御林铁卫队长
Brienne’s there as Commander of the Kingsguard.
蛤？山姆竟然成了大学士？单是成为学士就得寒窗苦读好多年呢
It’s surprising that Sam is Grand Maester, cause becoming a maester takes years of study
山姆不过刷了便盆，偷了书，跑了路 他真的够资格代表学城先进文化的前进方向吗？
– Sam just scrubbed bedpans, stole books and ran, so is he qualified to represent the
学士也要发下纯洁的誓言，他们从此不能有孩子，不能有野人女朋友
Citadel? And maesters take vows of chastity, they’re not meant to have children and wildling girlfriends.
或许，新王国新规矩吧
Maybe the rules have changed.
但不管怎么说，波隆任财政大臣无疑更值得商榷
But Bronn as Master of Coin is even more questionable.
他知道什么叫责任财政管理吗？
What does he know about responsible fiscal management?
几季前，他说自己对借贷一无所知
A few seasons ago, he said himself that he doesn’t know how loans work . And that’ll
这就有趣了，铁王座还欠铁金库不少钱呢 雇佣黄金团所借的钱，瑟曦可是一分都没还呢
be a problem, cause the Throne owes money to the Iron Bank – Cersei never paid back her Golden Company loan.
剧集一直在说，铁金库冷酷无情
We’ve been warned all series that the Iron Bank is ruthless – they might start a war
如果你欠钱不还，他们可是会发动战争的 挥金如土打了这么多年，维斯特洛可能要面临经济危机了，祝福波隆吧
if they don’t get their money . After all these years of expensive conflict , Westeros could face financial crisis – and it’s up to Bronn to prevent this.
对了，波隆还是高亭和河湾地的领主——提利昂履行了他荒谬的承诺
Bronn is also Lord of Highgarden, and Lord of the Reach – Tyrion kept his ridiculous
让波隆成了维斯特洛最有权势的领主之一，虽然他是个背信弃义的杀人犯
promise and made Bronn one of the most powerful lords in Westeros – even though Bronn is
在两集前还威胁过提利昂的性命……
a disloyal amoral murderer who threatened to kill Tyrion just two episodes ago.
对了，河湾地的大贵族们觊觎高亭好几百年了
There are many powerful houses in the reach who’ve wanted Highgarden for centuries – they’re
他们可不会轻易听从波隆的指挥
not gonna easily accept Bronn as the overlord.
提利昂常说他有债必偿，波隆也的确配得上一份奖励
Tyrion always said that he pays his debts, and he’s Bronn deserves a reward for eight
好歹为兰尼斯特家卖了八季的命
seasons of service to the Lannisters.
但这份奖励波隆怕是吃不消，而且也不利于和平
But giving Bronn this much power is not a recipe for peace.
山姆拿着一本关于近年战争的书，名叫《冰与火之歌》
Sam has a new history book about the recent wars . It’s called “A Song of Ice and
这也是《权力的游戏》系列小说的总标题
Fire”, which is the title of the Game of Thrones book series – it’s how there’s
与史书《指环王》出现在电影《指环王》结尾如出一辙
a Lord of the Rings book at the end of Lord of the Rings.
原著作者乔治·马丁说过，山姆是书中最像他本人的角色
Thrones author George Martin has said that that Sam is the character most like him , so
由山姆呈上这本书，再合适不过了
it’s appropriate that Sam presents this book.
提利昂很沮丧地发现，整本书压根儿没提他
Tyrion is upset to learn that he’s not mentioned in the book.
提利昂应该出现在书中——他曾是国王和女王的首相，他杀了泰温
Realistically, Tyrion would be mentioned – he was Hand to a king and queen, he killed Tywin,
还涉嫌毒死乔佛里
and supposedly killed Joffrey.
这呼应了瓦里斯在第二季中说过的——提利昂永远不会被世人认可
But this is a reference to what Varys said in Season 2 – that Tyrion will never get
史书也不会提到他，因为他是侏儒，是异类
recognition, and the histories won’t mention him , because he’s a dwarf and a misfit,
他一直被世人误解、仇恨
he’ll always be misunderstood and hated.
但这反而让竭力改变世界的提利昂更有英雄气质
But that only makes Tyrion more heroic for fighting to make the world better anyway.
布兰国王自带王座悄然而至，阴阳怪气地说，我们好像缺一个战争大臣
King Bran arrives and says they need a Master of War , which is ominous.
蛤？战争大臣这个职位可是瑟曦发明的，新政府不打算维持和平？
The Master of War position was invented by Cersei . You’d hope that this new regime
莫非想效仿瑟曦，管它洪水滔天？
would wanna emphasise peace, not continue Cersei’s legacy.
布兰说，还得任命一个情报大臣——也就是像瓦里斯那样的间谍头子
Bran also says they need a Master of Whisperers , which is a spymaster, like Varys.
蛤？布兰不就是最好的人选吗？他天生就是个狼灵呢
And you’d think Bran could just do that himself, since he can spy with animals, and
他还有绿之视野，自称能看见一切 在原著小说中，上一任三眼乌鸦就做过情报大臣 用他的魔法管理了整个王国数十年
has visions, and claims to “see everything” . In the books, the previous three-eyed raven was once the Master of Whisperers, and used his magic and spying to basically run the realm for decades.
布兰国王正好可以接过前任的衣钵呢
King Bran really is a continuation of his legacy.
山姆说，卓耿飞往瓦兰提斯了，沿着这个航线，它将在瓦雷利亚着陆
Sam says that Drogon is flying towards Volantis . If he continues that way, he’ll reach
那里是龙族的废墟帝国，坦格利安的故乡
Valyria – the ruined empire of the dragonlords, and homeland of the Targaryens.
卓耿曾经在瓦雷利亚出现过
We saw Drogon in Valyria before.
或许，卓耿和丹妮莉丝要回归先人的故乡了
So maybe he and Daenerys are going back to their ancestral home.
布兰说，他要用自己的魔法找到卓耿，但没说为什么
Bran says he might find Drogon with his magic, but he doesn’t say why.
他是想确定卓耿安全飞走了？
Does he wanna make sure that Drogon’s safely far away?
还是三眼乌鸦又在谋划什么？
Or does the three-eyed raven have some sinister plan?
布兰让御前会议管理王国，自己一心一意翻白眼
Bran lets the council do the ruling while he goes and does whatever the three-eyed raven
剧集最后一段对话是，提利昂又讲了蜂窝和驴子的笑话
does. The last line of dialogue in Game of Thrones is Tyrion telling his joke about the honeycomb
但很遗憾，又没有讲完，我们听不到笑点
and the jackass , but once again we don’t get to hear the punchline.
镜头平移，维斯特洛的地图在地板上显现，那是从碎石中清理出来的
The scene pans out, and we see the map of Westeros – it’s cleared of rubble, but
但地图上依旧有一道裂缝
there’s still a crack in the floor.
大概是在隐喻，新的王国并不完美
Cause this new realm isn’t perfect.
一堆问题和分歧等着解决，国王又可能是一棵邪恶的树
There are problems and divisions, and the king is possibly an evil tree.
但政府中有好人，王国的创伤还有希望愈合
But there are good people in government, and there’s hope that the wounds will heal.
剧集最后一幕是琼恩和野人们骑马北上
The final scene in Game of Thrones has Jon and the wildlings riding north.
琼恩似乎是在护送野人北上，又像是抛弃了守夜人，转而与野人为伍
It seems like Jon is escorting the wildlings, or maybe he’s abandoning the Night’s Watch and joining the wildlings.
琼恩和白灵、托蒙德重聚，或许下半辈子就这样了，和朋友们一起玩耍
He reunites with Ghost and Tormund – maybe he’ll spend his life with friends and have
再也不用上长城打摆子了
some fun for once instead of freezing his ass off on the Wall.
有一幕再现了全剧的开头——游骑兵北上
The scene recreates shots from the first scene in the series, with rangers riding north.
他们本来打算追捕野人，结果被异鬼给剁了
These rangers were hunting wildlings, and got killed by white walkers.
凛冬对他们相当不友好
Winter was rising against them.
但现在，守夜人和野人成了朋友，异鬼也被消灭了——凛冬似乎结束了
But now, the Watch is friendly with the wildlings, the walkers are gone, and it seems like winter
原著第一句台词是：我们回头吧
is ending. The first line in the Game of Thrones books is “We should start back” . But as Jon
但琼恩和野人毅然北上，他们似乎不打算回头了
and the wildlings ride north, it feels like they’re moving forwards.
没有十全十美，但尚有一线希望——这是春天的梦想
Things aren’t perfect, but there’s hope – it’s a dream of spring.
原著作者乔治·马丁不止一次说过——权游的结局是苦中带甜的
Author George Martin always said that the end of Thrones would be bittersweet . And
剧集做到了甜——布蕾妮成为骑士，珊莎加冕女王，席恩成功救赎
it was sweet in the show, to see Brienne knighted, Sansa crowned, Theon redeemed.
兰尼斯特的家庭闹剧，丹妮莉丝的征服，琼恩和艾莉亚的惊险之旅
We got eight seasons of Lannister drama, Daenerys’ conquests, Jon and Arya’s journeys, adapted
这些大部分改编自原著小说，制作、表演、音乐，样样都无与伦比
from the books with exceptional production, acting and music.
剧集将原著小说推向流行文化的巅峰
The tv show made some nerdy fantasy books into the biggest thing in pop culture, with
粉丝社区遍布全球
a global community of fans.
苦的是——剧集完结了，小说还没写完
[Start showing just S1, fadein other seasons showing book gap] But it’s bitter that the show ended before the book series was finished.
以至于到了最后三季，编剧没有素材可以改编了
So for the last few seasons, the showrunners didn’t have material to adapt.
只能撸起袖子瞎编，将剧情快速推向老爷子透露过的结局
They made up their own plots, and tried to connect them to the book ending that the author
于是就有了各种沙雕情节，比如抓鬼小分队
told them. So sometimes there were dumb plotlines like the wight hunt.
有的对话实在弱爆了，因为书里没有
Sometimes the dialogue was weak cause there was no book dialogue to use.
有的人物转变太快了，又仓促又浅薄，比如丹妮莉丝和詹姆
Characters like Daenerys and Jaime had sudden twists in their stories, which felt rushed
因为没剩几季了，只能拼命压缩了呢
and undeveloped because they were squeezed into shortened seasons.
早期的政治斗争现实而残酷，并且牵一发动全身，后来就成了过家家
The politics lost the realism and sense of consequences that defined the early story.
构思了好几季的异鬼的秘密和魔法，编着编着就忘了
And the seasons of built up mystery and magic kinda went nowhere.
有些复杂的人物到后期开始划水了，比如瓦里斯、小指头、瑟曦
Complex characters like Varys and Littlefinger and Cersei became less important, while asshats
攸伦这种欠扁的怪物反而翻云覆雨 但人物却毫无深度可言，对剧情的的推动也莫名其妙
like Euron had huge impacts on the plot without any character depth to give that impact meaning.
很多情节与人物的选择和主题完全脱节 只是为了搞个大新闻：惊不惊喜，意不意外！
Stuff happened not as a consequence of character choices or themes, but simply to surprise the audience.
剧集结局要表达的，据说跟原著计划的差不多
The main points of the ending on the show are apparently partly the same as what’s
但剧集的结局不会有原著的深度
planned for the books . But the show’s ending doesn’t have the same depth and detail that
更不会有原著意味无穷的细节
gives the books so much meaning.
很遗憾，因为小说没写完，我们还看不到丹妮莉丝和小格里芬的冲突
So it’s bitter that we didn’t get Daenerys’ conflict with Young Griff from the books.
看不到原版攸伦和维克塔利昂的恐怖
We didn’t get the horror of book-Euron and Victarion.
看不到原版多恩的故事线——亚莲恩、昆廷，以及旧镇的拉蕾萨
We didn’t get the book Dorne plot, with Arianne and Quentyn, and Alleras in Oldtown.
还有谷地的珊莎和哈利、弥林的巴利斯坦、魔法师马尔温、红袍僧马奇罗
Or Sansa with Harry in the Vale, and Barristan in Meereen, and Marwyn and Moqorro.
瓦里斯和伊利里欧的黑火密谋，北境诸侯的密谋
Varys and Illyrio’s Blackfyre conspiracy, and the northern conspiracy.
斯卡格斯岛上的瑞肯、史坦尼斯的冰雪之战
Rickon on Skagos, and Stannis’ Battle of Ice.
石心夫人、补丁脸、壮汉贝沃斯、机灵的狄克·克莱勃
Lady Stoneheart, Patchface, Strong Belwas, and Nimble Dick Crabb.
亚梭尔·亚亥、巫姬对瑟曦的完整预言
We didn’t get the full prophecies of Azor Ahai and the valonqar, the mysteries of the
异鬼的秘密、长夜堡、冬之号角、冰蜘蛛、长夜
white walkers, the Nightfort, Horn of Winter, ice spiders and a long Long Night, and everything
以及将在最后两本小说中出现的所有其他东西
else that’ll happen in the next two books.
马丁最近暗示，第六卷《凛冬的寒风》将在一年内完成
Martin recently hinted that the next book will be out in a year . It’ll be sweet to
能看到马丁怎么收尾，真是太好了
read his ending.
剧集播出了，这也很好
And it’s sweet that the tv show happened.
但很遗憾，剧集本该完成得更好
But it’s bitter that the show is not what it could’ve been.
