15 Ch15-A Visitor

CHAPTER 15 A VISITOR Two gray beams of light shot from Shaka's eyes as Astrid moved closer to the portal. The dragon's power beams hit her. Instantly, the wizard's body turned to stone.

当阿斯特丽德走近传送门时，沙卡的眼睛里射出了两道灰色的光束。 巨龙的能量光束击中了她。 巫师的身体立刻变成了石头。

Everyone was silent for a moment. Shaka's body stopped glowing. Worm gently lowered the statue to the ground. Hulda walked up to her sister and touched her face. "Astrid is ... a statue," Hulda said. Mina joined Hulda. "I am sorry that I could not stop her from reaching the beasts in the first place." She looked down at the snow.

大家沉默了一会儿。 夏卡的身体停止了发光。 Worm轻轻地把雕像放到地上。 胡尔达走到妹妹跟前，摸了摸她的脸。 “阿斯特丽德……一座雕像，”胡尔达说。 米娜加入了胡尔达。“我很抱歉，我一开始没能阻止她接近野兽。” 她低头看着雪。

Hulda patted Mina's arm. "My sister was too powerful for her own good. No one could stop her alone. It took all of us working together to do it. And I know King Albin will be relieved that Astrid is no longer a threat to him and his people." "Can she break through the stone with her magic?" Caspar wondered. "She should not be able to escape," Jayana said. "But we will bring her to the Wizard's Council prison to make sure." "What happens now?" Drake asked, handing the pouch with the Tenebrex Stone back to Griffith. "Now you shall all go home and rest," Griffith said.

胡尔达拍了拍米娜的胳膊。“我妹妹太强大了，这对她自己不利。 没有人能单独阻止她。 这是我们所有人共同努力的结果。 我知道阿尔宾国王会松一口气，因为阿斯特丽德不再对他和他的人民构成威胁了。” “她能用她的魔法打开石头吗?”卡斯帕很好奇。 “她不应该逃出来，”贾亚娜说。 “但是我们要把她带到巫师议会的监狱里去确认一下。” “现在怎么办?”德雷克问道，把装着特尼布里斯石的袋子递给了格里菲斯。 “现在你们都可以回家休息了，”格里菲斯说。

"I could use a warm bath and some onion stew," Drake admitted. Griffith turned to Jayana. "I will help you take Astrid to the prison. Can one of your wizards help get Caspar and Shaka back to Navid?" Jayana nodded. "I'll take care of it." Drake hugged Mina and Caspar good-bye, "Drake, you will always have a friend in Navid," Caspar said. "You are more than my friend now, Drake," Mina said. "You are my brother." Drake smiled. "I've always wanted a sister."

德雷克承认:“我可以洗个热水澡，吃点炖洋葱。” 格里菲斯转向Jayana。 “我将帮你把阿斯特丽德带到监狱去。 你们哪位巫师能帮忙把卡斯帕和沙卡带回纳维那里吗?”Jayana点点头。 “我来处理。”德雷克拥抱米娜和卡斯帕道别，“德雷克，纳维德永远是你的朋友，”卡斯帕说。 “你现在不仅仅是我的朋友了，德雷克，”米娜说。 “你是我的兄弟。”德雷克笑了。 “我一直想要一个妹妹。”

Griffith magically returned their clothes to the way they were before. Poof! Then Drake touched his dragon. "Let's go home now, Worm." The dragon transported them to Bracken, to the Valley of Clouds outside the castle. Drake yawned. "It's warm and sunny here," he said. "How about a nap?" That sounds nice, Worm replied. Drake slid down and rested against Worm's back. He closed his eyes.

格里菲斯神奇地把他们的衣服变回了原来的样子。 噗!然后德雷克碰到了他的龙。 “我们现在回家吧，虫子。” 恶龙把他们送到了布莱肯，城堡外的云谷。 德雷克打了个哈欠。“这里温暖而阳光明媚，”他说。 “打个盹怎么样?”“听起来不错。”Worm回答。 德雷克滑了下来，靠在沃姆的背上休息。 他闭上了眼睛。

A few minutes later, he felt something on his arm. He looked down, expecting to see a field snake, or maybe a toad. He blinked. A tiny dragon crawled on hims It wasn't much bigger than his foot. Green scales covered the dragon's body, and white flower petals sprouted from the dragon's head. The dragon's wings looked like flower petals, too. Drake sat up. His eyes got wide. "Worm, we have a visitor!"

几分钟后，他感到手臂上有东西。 他往下看，以为会看到一条田蛇，或者一只蟾蜍。 他眨了眨眼睛。一条小龙爬在他身上，比他的脚大不了多少。 绿色的鳞片覆盖着龙的身体，白色的花瓣从龙的头上发芽。 龙的翅膀看起来也像花瓣。 德雷克坐了起来。他睁大了眼睛。 “虫子，我们有客人了!”
