白日天空悬着红月。广场乱成一锅粥，雷恩想溜，却被一只铁钳般的手攥住——直到红发的精灵军医艾莉丝穿过人群，把他从征兵令底下捞了出来。
A red moon hangs in the daylight sky. The square is chaos; Lane tries to slip through, but an iron grip hauls him up — until Iris, a red-haired elven field surgeon, cuts through the crowd and pulls him out from under a conscription order.
红月悬在白日天空，广场乱成一锅粥。雷恩挤在人群边缘想溜过去，一只手铁钳般攥住他的胳膊。「站住！征兵令没看见？」老军士喝道。雷恩堆起笑：「军爷，我这身板上战场是给女巫添菜。」
The red moon hangs in the daytime sky; the square is in uproar. Lane edges along the crowd, trying to slip away, when a hand like an iron vice grips his arm. "Halt! You blind? There's a conscription order posted," a grizzled sergeant barks. Lane flashes a grin: "C'mon, sir. This scrawny body of mine'd be nothing but witch bait."
「别动他，这人是给我送药的。」人群分开，艾莉丝穿过广场走进来——红发高马尾，琥珀色眼睛，灰白罩衫收腰，尖耳隐在红发间。兵痞们不自觉松开了手。她对老军士说：「他要是被抓走了，您让伤兵们自己爬去采药？」
"Leave him be. He's my medicine runner." The crowd parts. Iris walks through the square — red hair in a high ponytail, amber eyes, a cinched grey-white surcoat, pointed ears hidden among her locks. The ruffians let go of him. She faces the sergeant: "You drag him off, and your wounded'll be crawling through the mud to pick their own herbs."
兵痞散开。雷恩松了口气，欠身道：「救命之恩，无以为报。以身相许怎么样？」艾莉丝上下打量他：「你？以身相许？」一来一回，她嗤笑道：「那你还是以身相许吧。至少这张脸还能看。」她递过一个药囊。雷恩接过，把金贵药膏塞回底层，把便宜外伤药翻到面上。
The crowd disperses. Lane exhales and bows: "You just saved my skin. How 'bout I repay you with myself?" Iris sizes him up: "You? Offering yourself up as payment?" After the back-and-forth she snorts: "Then keep yourself as payment. At least the face is easy on the eyes." She hands him a medicine pouch. Lane takes it — tucking the precious salve to the bottom, flipping the cheap wound-dressing to the top.
艾莉丝挑眉：「你干什么？」「精贵的药应该好好保管，留着救命用。」她盯着他看了一瞬，忽然伸手，指尖按在他手腕内侧的脉搏上：「你脉搏比常人快。体温比常人高。瞳孔在暗处会放大。你也不是普通人。」雷恩僵住：「……你怎么知道？」她收回手，嘴角微挑：「我是军医。我看人先看眼睛。」
"What're you up to?" Iris raises an eyebrow. "Good stuff stays hidden. Saved for when it matters." She studies him a moment, then reaches out, fingertips against the pulse inside his wrist: "Pulse races. Temperature runs high. Pupils blow wide in the dark. You're not human either." Lane freezes: "...How'd you know that?" She draws her hand back, a hint of a smile: "Field surgeon. I read people by their eyes."
