Kai goes through every record and finds one precedent from a thousand years past — the first werewolf and the first elf, who sealed the Abyss together and became stars.
凯翻遍所有记录，只找到一千年前的一次先例——第一代狼人和第一代精灵，联手封了深渊，化成了星辰。
Behind the apothecary, Lane sits on an old stool, legs transparent below the knee — he can see the stool's legs through them. Kai pages through an old tome: "There's only been one union of werewolf and elf in all history." "When was that?" "A thousand years past. The first werewolf and the first elf. They stood together and sealed the Abyss. But their end — the text says: 'When both as one, they become stars. One watches the sky, one watches the earth.'"
药铺后堂，雷恩坐在旧木凳上，他的腿从膝盖以下都是透明的，能看见凳子腿。凯翻着一本古书：「狼人和精灵的联姻，在历史上只出现过一次。」「什么时候？」「一千年前。第一代狼人和第一代精灵。他们联手封了深渊。但他们的结局——书上写着：『两者合一，化为星辰。一守天，一守地。』」
"What's that supposed to mean?" Kai closes the book: "It means they became the moon and the earth. The werewolf became the moon. The elf became the earth. Always together… but never touching." Iris grips Lane's hand: "I don't wanna be the earth." Lane shakes his head too: "Don't wanna be the moon either. Rather be a half-transparent thief."
「什么意思？」凯合上书：「意思是，他们变成了月亮和大地。狼人变成了月亮。精灵变成了大地。他们永远在一起，但永远碰不到彼此。」艾莉丝攥紧雷恩的手：「我不要变成大地。」雷恩也摇头：「我也不要变成月亮。我宁愿当个半透明的贼。」
Kai turns the page and his face changes: "But there's another way. If a werewolf and an elf enter the red moon together, on the night of the full moon, and drive the sword through the moon's heart… they can swap souls. Trade places with all the souls trapped inside. Including the half of you that's stuck there." Lane asks: "What's the price?" Kai meets his eyes: "The price — their souls stay in the red moon. Forever. Both of them."
凯翻到下一页，脸色变了：「但有一个办法。如果狼人和精灵在月圆之夜，同时进入红月，用剑刺穿月亮之心——他们就能把红月里的灵魂换出来。用他们的灵魂，换出维恩斯封在红月里的所有灵魂。包括雷恩的那一半。」雷恩问：「代价是什么？」凯看着他：「代价是，他们的灵魂会永远留在红月里。两个人一起。」
