CHAPTER TEN All Good

第十章一切都好

The dragon's eyes were flaming. Its horns and claws and scaly skin flashed in the moonlight. Its open batlike wings began moving against the night sky, sweeping back and forth, back and forth. Jack, Annie, Oki, and Guinevere huddled with the king in the raging windstorm. In a flash of fire and smoke, a portal opened before them. Colors swirled—red, black, yellow, and green. Images from mythic realms of the otherworld passed by Jack's eyes. Flying stags, gossamer-winged fairies, one-eyed ice wizards, spider queens, raven kings, water horses, wolf shadows, sea serpents, snow giants, and fallen knights all flew by, ghostly and real at the same time. And then nothing. Nothing at all. Only darkness. Annie's voice broke through the black silence. "Jack. Jack," she said. Jack opened his eyes. He was sitting in soft wet grass, still clasping the red stone Cafelle had given him. Annie sat beside him, and Guinevere and Arthur lay nearby. Jack heard water splashing. It sounded as if fish were jumping, but when he sat up, he couldn't see

龙的眼睛冒着火焰。 它的角、爪子和鳞片般的皮肤在月光下闪闪发光。 它张开的蝙蝠般的翅膀开始在夜空中移动，前后扫来扫去。 杰克、安妮、奥基和吉娜薇在狂风暴雨中与国王挤在一起。 火光和烟雾一闪而过，一个入口在他们面前打开了。 颜色呈漩涡状——红、黑、黄、绿。 来自另一个世界的神话世界的图像从杰克的眼前掠过。 飞雄鹿、长着游丝翅膀的仙女、独眼冰法师、蜘蛛女王、乌鸦王、水马、狼影、海蛇、雪巨人和堕落的骑士们，幽灵般的和真实的同时飞过。 然后什么都没有。什么都没有。 只有黑暗。安妮的声音打破了黑暗的寂静。 “杰克。杰克，”她说。杰克睁开眼睛。 他坐在柔软潮湿的草地上，仍然紧握着卡菲勒送给他的那块红石头。 安妮坐在他旁边，桂尼维尔和阿瑟躺在旁边。 杰克听到水声。 听起来好像有鱼在跳，但当他坐起来时，他看不见了

anything through a golden mist that was rising from a lake. The breeze was soft and smelled of lavender and lilac. "What happened?" he said. "We were pulled into the portal, and it brought us to Avalon," said Annie. Yip! Oki popped up beside her. "Right, Oki?" Annie asked. "I believe you are right," answered the queen. Jack and Annie turned around. Guinevere was sitting up, her golden hair tumbling around her shoulders. She looked dazed but happy. "How are you both?" she said. "I think we're good," said Annie. "All good," said Jack. He slipped the red stone back into his pocket. Guinevere smiled at them. Then she reached out and tenderly touched the king's shoulder. "Wake, my lord," she said. King Arthur opened his eyes and stared up at the pale sky. Oki scampered over the grass and licked the king's cheek. Arthur laughed softly and stroked the puppy's fur. "Where's the dragon?" said Jack.

任何穿过从湖中升起的金色雾的东西。 微风柔和，散发着薰衣草和丁香的香味。 “发生什么事了？”他说。“我们被拉进了传送门，它把我们带到了阿瓦隆，”安妮说。 犬吠!奥基突然出现在她身边。 “冲电气?”安妮问。 “我相信你是对的，”王后回答说。 杰克和安妮转过身来。 吉娜薇坐了起来，金色的头发披散在肩上。 她看起来有些茫然，但很开心。 “你们俩都好吗？”她说。 “我想我们很好，”安妮说。 “都很好，”杰克说。他把那块红石放回口袋里。 桂尼维尔朝他们笑了笑。然后她伸出手，温柔地碰了碰国王的肩膀。 “醒醒，大人。”她说。 亚瑟王睁开眼睛，凝视着苍白的天空。 Oki在草地上蹦蹦跳跳，舔了舔国王的脸颊。 阿瑟轻轻地笑了笑，抚摸着小狗的毛。 “龙在哪儿？”杰克问。

"You're sitting beside him," said Annie. Jack looked down and saw the gold statue shining in the dewy grass. When he wrapped his hand around it, the statue was still warm. "What about the giant living, breathing dragon?" he asked. "I don't know," said Annie. "Everyone saw a giant dragon, right?" said Jack. "It wasn't just me?" "Yes, I saw it," said Guinevere. "And I," said the king, sitting up. Arthur's voice was hoarse, but his eyes were clear. Color had returned to his face. "Oh, wow, Your Majesty! Are you going to be okay now?" asked Annie. The king took a deep breath. "Yes, Annie. I believe my wound has already begun to heal." "I'm really glad," Annie said. "Me too," said Jack. Suddenly Oki let out a yelp. Then the puppy dashed to the shore of the lake and barked wildly. High, beautiful singing was coming from across the mist-covered water.

“你坐在他旁边，”安妮说。 杰克低下头，看见金色的雕像在带露水的草地上闪闪发光。 当他用手抱住雕像时，雕像仍然是温暖的。 “那只会呼吸的巨龙呢？”他问。 “我不知道，”安妮说。 “每个人都看到了一条巨龙，对吧？”杰克说。 “不只是我一个人？”“是的，我看见了。”桂尼维尔说。 “我也是。”国王说着，坐了起来。 阿瑟的声音沙哑，但他的眼睛清澈。 他的脸上又恢复了血色。 “哦，哇，陛下！你现在好了吗？”安妮问。 国王深吸了一口气。 “是的,安妮。我相信我的伤口已经开始愈合了。” “我真的很高兴，”安妮说。 “我也是，”杰克说。突然，奥基发出一声尖叫。 然后小狗冲到湖边，疯狂地叫着。 高高的，美丽的歌声从雾气覆盖的水面传来。

"Who's singing?" Jack asked. "Mermaids," said the king. "Mermaids?" said Annie. Jack just smiled. In this strange new world, nothing seemed impossible. "Look!" said Annie. Slowly, a cinnamon-colored boat with a white sail glided out of the haze. At the helm of the boat was a tall bearded man in a blue robe. A small penguin stood beside him. "Merlin! Penny!" breathed Annie. She and Jack jumped up and ran to the edge of the water. When Merlin saw Jack and Annie, his eyes grew wide with astonishment. Peep, chirped Penny. "Greetings!" called Jack. "Greetings, indeed!" said the magician. "How on earth do you children come to be here in Avalon?" "Magic!" said Annie. Merlin landed the small sailboat, and he and Penny came ashore. Oki rushed forward and

“唱歌是谁?”杰克问。 “美人鱼。”国王说。 “美人鱼？”安妮说。杰克只是笑了笑。 在这个陌生的新世界里，似乎没有什么是不可能的。 “看！”安妮说。慢慢地，一艘挂着白帆的棕黄色小船从雾霾中驶出。 掌舵的是一个身穿蓝色长袍、留着胡子的高个子男人。 一只小企鹅站在他旁边。 “梅林!佩妮！”安妮低声说。 她和杰克跳起来，跑到水边。 当梅林看到杰克和安妮时，他惊讶地睁大了眼睛。 佩妮叽叽喳喳地说。“你好！”杰克叫道。 “问候，真的！”魔术师说。 “你们这些孩子到底是怎么到阿瓦隆来的？”“魔法！”安妮说。 梅林让小帆船靠岸，他和佩妮上了岸。 Oki冲上前

nuzzled the baby penguin's fuzzy head. Penny flapped her wings and made squeaking sounds as if she was giggling. "New friends!" Guinevere said. Merlin cried out in amazement when he saw the king and queen walking toward him. "Your Majesties!" said the magician. "What has happened? Why are you all here in Avalon?" "Soon after you left Camelot, word came of enemy forces in the east," said the king. As he began telling Merlin the story of the invaders, a snow-white unicorn pranced out of the golden haze. Teddy and Kathleen were on its back. "Dianthus!" Annie cried. "Teddy! Kathleen!" "Hi!" yelled Jack, and he and Annie ran away from the shore to greet their friends. Teddy and Kathleen shouted with wonder and joy when they saw Jack and Annie. The young enchanters jumped off the unicorn and threw their arms around them. Oki yapped and leapt joyfully around Dianthus. "Hi, Dianthus! We missed you!" said Annie. She lifted Oki up to the unicorn. Dianthus sniffed the

用鼻子蹭小企鹅毛茸茸的头。 佩妮拍打着翅膀，发出吱吱的声音，好像在咯咯地笑。 “新朋友!”漂亮宝贝说。 当梅林看到国王和王后向他走来时，他惊奇地叫了起来。 “陛下！”魔术师说。 “发生了什么事？”你们为什么都在阿瓦隆？”“你离开卡梅洛特后不久，就有消息说东方有敌军。”国王说。 当他开始向梅林讲述入侵者的故事时，一只雪白的独角兽从金色的雾霾中跳了出来。 泰迪和凯瑟琳在它背上。 “石竹类植物!”安妮哭了。“泰迪!凯瑟琳!”“嗨！”杰克喊道，他和安妮从岸边跑出去迎接他们的朋友。 特迪和凯萨琳看到杰克和安妮，惊奇而又高兴地叫了起来。 年轻的魔法师们从独角兽上跳下来，伸出双臂抱住它们。 Oki围着Dianthus欢快地叫着跳着。 “嗨,石竹类植物!我们很想你！”安妮说。 她把奥基举到独角兽面前。 Dianthus闻了闻
