嘿！這里是九四白靈，這周我的考試和作業(yè)比較多，但是作為一般周更的Up怎樣還是想要更點東西出來，所以就更新一個暫時在貼吧和B站翻譯庭找不到的完整版翻譯吧（貼吧上有個不完整的），算是忙里偷閑翻譯出來的，中英文對照，來源在末尾，個人翻譯熟肉穿插的版本。是大守護(hù)者克里皮亞斯的日志，而且寫出來這個日志的他理所應(yīng)當(dāng)?shù)谋恢艺\掉了。允許轉(zhuǎn)發(fā)但是如果要轉(zhuǎn)載請和我說明一下。本文僅是個人的學(xué)習(xí)用途，不用于商業(yè)侵權(quán)刪。以下是中英文對照內(nèi)容

The Journal of Keeper Cripias

守護(hù)者克里皮亞斯的日志。

Dated in the year of our Emperor 993.M41

記錄于帝國歷993.M41。

For seventy long years I have laboured as Master Finnias laboured before me, and Master Shadiel before him, through eight hundred and thirty six generations of Keepers of the Library Sanctus of Terra. It has been our endeavour, our life-long aim, to compile a history of the majesty of the Human Race from the archives which are our worship. In his benevolent wisdom, the Emperor has granted me the singular and great honour and pleasure of completing this sacred task in my own lifespan.

七十年來，我一直像我之前的芬里斯大師以及他之前的謝迪爾大師一樣謹(jǐn)慎地工作，通過了泰拉神圣圖書館的考驗成為了第八百三十六代守護(hù)者。

我們的努力以及我們的終身目標(biāo)是從我們崇拜的檔案中總結(jié)和匯總?cè)祟惒恍嗟臍v史資料。

以帝皇的仁慈智慧為名，我對于帝皇陛下給予我在我自己的生命中完成這項神圣而偉大的任務(wù)感到極度的自豪。

Through copious notes and periods of cogitation I have pieced together the history and pre-history of Mankind into the greatest antiquities of time. Here I have revealed my findings for the first time, for as it was in the time of the First Keeper, Solomon, our knowledge has passed by oratory and not written word. However, in these changing times there are none worthy to succeed me now, and so it is fit and rightful that I, the Last Keeper, Cripias, records our Great Works to these pages for eternity.

通過這段時期閱讀豐富的筆記和思考，我把人類的歷史和前史融合到了一起，從最古老的時代開始。

在這里，我將第一次揭示我的發(fā)現(xiàn)，因為在第一個守護(hù)者的時代，所羅門的時代，我們的知識傳承是通過演講而不是書面文字進(jìn)行的。

然而，在這些不斷變化的時代中，現(xiàn)在沒有任何讓我感興趣的事情，所以我，到我現(xiàn)在這一任為止最后的守護(hù)者克里皮亞斯，將用合適并合法的方式將我們偉大的作品記錄在這些永恒的頁面上。

And so it was that in the First Age of Man, the Golden Age, there is the Emperor Unseen and unheralded he prepares the Old Earth for the coming of Mankind and he watches and he waits. He is joined by the First Men of the Golden Race, fine of limb and strong of mind, yet still the Emperor is content to wait in shadow. To watch and learn from Mankind, the Golden Race spreads across the face of Old Earth, multiplying and establishing Order and Civilisation on the anarchy of Nature. In time, the Second Men of the Stone Race appear, and in their wake come many miracles and marvels of technology that strengthen to Sone Men’s power, but are also harnessed by those of th Golden Race. Although physically inferior to the Golden Race, and not of philosophical temperament and disposition, the Stone Men have in them the conjurations of great artifices and mechanisms. In time, the Golden Race looks to the stars to expand their dominion. The Stone Race builds great machines of power that send both Men of Stone and Men of Gold into the Ether. However, once the burgeoning race of Mankind has taken its first steps into the greater cosmos, the Golden Race dwindles in influence through their dependence on the artifices of the Stone Race. This the Golden Age comes to an end and the Stone Men prevail.

在人類的第一個時代，黃金時代，帝皇隱藏在人群中，并且在那時的泰拉上沒有人知道他或注意到他，他靜靜地注視著他的子民們。

當(dāng)人類進(jìn)入黃金時代，黃金人種是一種精神四肢且精神強(qiáng)大地種群，但皇帝仍然滿足于隱藏在陰影中觀察著并學(xué)習(xí)著自己的族群的優(yōu)點。

黃金種族遍布當(dāng)時的泰拉的地表，從自然的無政府狀態(tài)下慢慢繁衍和建立秩序與文明。

隨著時間的推移，第二個人種，石人種群出現(xiàn)了，并且隨之而來的是許多奇妙的技術(shù)創(chuàng)造出的奇跡，這些奇跡加強(qiáng)了石人種群的力量，但也被黃金人種所利用。

雖然身體上不如金色種族，而思想上的能力相差無幾，且石人具有強(qiáng)大的手段和技術(shù)的結(jié)合。

隨著時間的推移，石人種幫助并加快了黃金人種的擴(kuò)張統(tǒng)治。

石人種建造了強(qiáng)大的動力機(jī)器，將石人種和黃金人種一起送入太空。

然而，人類的新興種族邁出了沖向更大的宇宙的第一步，通過依賴石人種族，黃金人種減少了影響力并被石人種奪取了領(lǐng)導(dǎo)地位。

黃金時代即將結(jié)束，石人種的時代來了。

Our calculations, from the most distant and archaic records, and through constellar comparison, have dated the end of the Golden Age at 20.000 years previous to our present time.

For the next 5.000 years, the Stone Race lives through the Dark Age of Technology. Little can be determined from the Dark Age of Technology, for the majority of existing records concerning that period are gathered in the Librarius Omnis of Mars, and none outside the highest ranks of the Adeptus Mechanicus can gain access past its most determined Guardians (Keeper Malrubius tried once, but to no avail. We have surmised that during the Dark Age of Technology, the Men of Ston create the Iron Men to help them in the building of their Great Empire. At first, the Iron Men are as servants, willing to do the bidding of their masters with no thoughts.

我們的通過對比星座的位置，從最遙遠(yuǎn)和最古老的記錄和現(xiàn)在的星圖的對比，我們推斷黃金時代的結(jié)束在我們現(xiàn)在的20.000年前。

在接下來的5000年里，石人族經(jīng)歷黑暗時代的到來和結(jié)束。

我們擁有的黑暗科技時代的記錄極少，因為有關(guān)那個時期的大多數(shù)現(xiàn)有記錄都集中在火星的機(jī)械教主圖書館里，并且除了機(jī)械教的最高級別的人之外的任何生物，都無法通過其最堅定的守護(hù)者的看守而得到這些文件（守護(hù)者馬里盧比斯Malrubius曾經(jīng)嘗試過，但無濟(jì)于事）。我們猜測，在黑暗科技時代，石人族創(chuàng)造了鐵人族，他們建立了偉大的人類國度。起初，鐵人是石人族的仆人，愿意無條件的執(zhí)行他們主人的命令。

However, the Iron Men, as all creatures do, evolve and grow until they are the equal of the Stone Race and beside each other they set about conquering the galaxy. The Dark Age of Technology is an era of machines and artificial devices, used by the Stone Men, and later the Iron Men, in their endeavours. Many of the technical marvels that the Priesthood of Mars sustain can be traced to their origins in the Dark Age of Technology, and itt is at the end of this period that the great organisation know now as the Adeptus Mechanicus was founded. During the Dark Age of Technology, the austere ancestors of the Imperium’s Navis Nobilite are born, and through their unique prowess, mankind forges through the stars. Weapons of great destruction cow the aggression of alien enemies, pushing back the frontiers of Mankind’s dominions.

然而，鐵人族就像其他所有生物一樣不斷進(jìn)化和成長著，直到它們與石頭種族平等，并且彼此輔助著征服銀河系。

黑暗科技時代是一個機(jī)器和人造物的時代，而這些科技被掌握在石人族以及后來的鐵人族手中使用。

火星牧師所使用的許多奇跡一樣的技術(shù)都可以追溯到黑暗時代的技術(shù)，這個在黑暗科技時期結(jié)束時，一個模糊但偉大的組織出現(xiàn)了，就是現(xiàn)在機(jī)械神教的前身。

在黑暗科技時代，人類中的導(dǎo)航者家族的祖先誕生了，通過他們獨特的能力，人類橫越群星。

大規(guī)模殺傷性武器被制造出來，扼殺了外星敵人的侵略的可能性，人類統(tǒng)治的邊界一路拓張。

The end of the Dark Age of Technology is the most obscure region in mankind’s evolutionary tale. For whatever reasons and differences in ideology, the Stone Men and the Iron Men fell to warring with each other. The Iron Men are possessed of no Soul, an anathema to any true Man. The Stone Men in their final acts of self-preservation, annihilate the Iron Men who have turned from ally to foe, and even those of the Iron Race who retain their former loyalties ot theor one-time masters are destroyed in the fiery crucible of battle. Still the Emperor, in his eternal wisdom, awaits the moment to reveal the true path to Mankind’s destiny. Thus the start of the Age of Strife is heralded. The Age of Strife sees the collapse of the ancient Empire built by the Stone Men. Mankind is split asunder, there is no Race of Man, just warring factions contending with each other in the direst perils the galaxy could offer. Seeing humanity’s weakness, alien dominance grows in power oce again, the arms of the Stone Men left to ruin, the protection of the Iron Men destroyed in the last years of the Dark Age of Technology. For five millennia, the human race exists in the twilight of its former greatness, bickering and fighting for the scant resources to hand. With no guiding will, no manifest destiny of lordship, mankind is left in turmoil. Even Earth, the bedrock on which humanity’s Empire was founded is gripped in the throes of generation-long intercine war. The foul aliens who had been held back by the might of the Iron Men and the Stone Men surge forth from their havens and lairs, destroying mankind’s defences, killing or enslaving the Emperor’s wards. Mankind is engulfed by a plague of mutation, physical deviants and men possessed of psychic talents appear throughout the galaxy bringing more havoc with them. With no over-reaching authority, these lost souls and psykers sprawl unchecked across the human race. It is at this time that the Emperor reveals his true nature and sets about his plans of delivrance from anarchy.

黑暗科技時代的結(jié)束是人類進(jìn)化故事中最模糊且不起眼的歷史。

無論出于何種原因，也許是意識形態(tài)的差異，石人族和鐵人族開始了大規(guī)模的交戰(zhàn)。

鐵人沒有靈魂，是任何真正的生物的詛咒。

石人族使用了全部的科技和能力，消滅了那些從盟友變成敵人的鐵人，甚至那些和他們以前一樣忠誠的鐵人也無法抵抗石人族的清算，他們的一次性地被摧毀在激烈的戰(zhàn)斗中（其實依舊有殘存地鐵人存在）。

擁有永恒的智慧的帝皇仍然等待著人類的命運的道路被真正確定的那一刻。

因此，沖突時代不可避免地來到了。

沖突時代中，由石人族建造的古代帝國崩潰了。

人類走上了分裂的，互相混戰(zhàn)地道路，人類地原星域沒有統(tǒng)一地區(qū)域派系，反而開始在銀河系中最大的混戰(zhàn)中相互競爭。

看到了人類的弱點，昔日退避的外星人勢力增強(qiáng)了自己的力量，石人的的帝國高聳的巨城變成了廢墟，鐵人族在黑暗科技時代的最后幾年也覆滅了。

五千年中，人類在其昔日偉大的暮色中存活著，為爭奪僅剩的資源而爭斗不休。

沒有一個領(lǐng)導(dǎo)的出現(xiàn)以及沒有明顯的主權(quán)意識，人類處于動蕩之中。

即使是泰拉（地球），人類帝國所依賴的基石也在無法阻止人類的自相殘殺行為。

被鐵人和石人族強(qiáng)行阻擋的外星人從他們的避風(fēng)港和巢穴中涌出，摧毀了人類的防御，殺死或奴役了帝皇的守衛(wèi)。

人類被基因突變的災(zāi)難困擾，身體上的變異和擁有靈能的人出現(xiàn)在整個銀河系中，而他們帶來了更多的災(zāi)難和浩劫。

由于沒有權(quán)威的領(lǐng)導(dǎo)，這些失落的靈魂和靈能者在人類中不受限制地蔓延。

正是在這個時候，偉大的帝皇展示了他的真實面目，并開始了幫助人類從無政府狀態(tài)中解脫的計劃。

For the last ten thousand years we have been in the glorious Age of the Imperium, the Reign of the Beneficent Emperor of Mankind. Using his vast intellect and knowledge of ages past, the Emperor creates a race of warriors to quell the warring factions on Earth, renaming our Homeworld Terra and affirming its place as the centre of the known galaxy. Having established ruleship over Mankind’s birthworld, the Emperor sets about to the re-creation of Mankind’s righteous fate. With his Legions of Space Marines, the Emperor leads the Great Crusade of Reconquest. It is a long and arduous war, but world after world, seing in the Emperor the rightful rule of mankind, falls to his service. The Space Marines, now numbered in their many thousands, establish outposts in the far reaches of the galaxy and from these bases on asteroids and moons and planet, launch forays into the darkness, bringing the Light and Word of the Emperor with them. Through this turmoil – the base treachery of the Warmaster and sacrifice of the Emperor, the contact with the noble offices of the Priesthood of Mars, the establishment of the Navis Nobilite and other noteworthy assemblages that we now take for granted as well as the purges of mutants and psykers – the Imperium is forged in blood and death, on a thousand thousand worlds the rightful and just rule of the Emperor is reasserted.

在過去的一萬年里，我們一直處于光榮的帝國統(tǒng)治時代，即處于人類神圣的帝皇麾下的統(tǒng)治時期。

憑借他無上的智慧和過去經(jīng)驗的積累，帝皇創(chuàng)造了一種戰(zhàn)士來平息地球上的戰(zhàn)爭，重新命名我們的家園為泰拉并將其作為已知星系的中心。

在對人類的誕生世界宣誓了主權(quán)之后，帝皇陛下開始重新規(guī)劃和創(chuàng)造人類的路。

憑借他的星際戰(zhàn)士軍團(tuán)，皇帝領(lǐng)導(dǎo)了神圣的大遠(yuǎn)征。

這是一場漫長而艱苦的戰(zhàn)爭，但域外的星球上的人類殖民地，在皇帝身上看到了人類的真理并紛紛宣布效忠帝皇。

星際戰(zhàn)士戰(zhàn)團(tuán)的人數(shù)現(xiàn)在已經(jīng)成千上萬，它們在銀河系的各處建立了前哨基地，并從小行星，衛(wèi)星和行星上的這些基地開始，伴隨著帝皇之光和神話抵抗著黑暗。

經(jīng)歷了戰(zhàn)帥（第十六軍團(tuán)原體-荷魯斯）的背叛和皇帝的犧牲，與火星機(jī)械神教的接觸，導(dǎo)航者的付出以及我們現(xiàn)在注意到的其他黑暗的事宜以及清除不必要的突變體和靈能者，帝國是鮮血與死亡的結(jié)晶，在千千萬萬的域外世界中，帝皇作為合法而公正的統(tǒng)治地位被最終確立下來。

And so it is, ten thousand years since the Great Crusade we are able to live under the guiding Light of the Emperor, we have the guns of the Imperial Navy, Imperial Guard and Adeptus Astartes, to guard against betrayal and foul aliens.

因此，自大遠(yuǎn)征以來，我們生活在皇帝的指導(dǎo)之光下又經(jīng)過了一萬年的發(fā)展，擁有了帝國海軍，帝國衛(wèi)隊和阿斯塔特的輔助，以防止可惡的背叛以及惡劣的異性的存在。

But the stories do not end there. For in our research, the Keepers of the Library Sanctus on Terra have uncovered many forgotten secrets, hidden lore, tales of treachery and heroism. Although we have not become, by no means, omniscient, we know many things that should not be known. For example, who few outside of this stone chamber have learned of the Betrayal of Luther, the Curse of the Red Thirst, the dark shrouded founding of the Sisterhood. Who has recited such tales of woe as can be found in the Legacies of Gathalamor, the unseen mysteries concering the origins of the Space Marines Legions, the dark perils that await those who passed beyond the Gates of Varl, the names of the sinister architects of the Ymga Monolith.

但這些故事并沒有就此結(jié)束。

在我們的研究中，泰拉神圣圖書館的守護(hù)者發(fā)現(xiàn)了許多被遺忘的秘密，隱藏的傳說，可恥背叛和英雄主義的故事。

雖然我們并沒有變得無所不知，但我們知道了許多不應(yīng)該知道的事情。

例如，在這個石室之外很少有人了解到盧斯的背叛，詛咒一樣的鮮血渴望以及姐妹團(tuán)的黑暗陰霾。

誰曾吟誦過這樣的悲慘故事，這些故事可以在戈撒拉莫爾（一個星域）的遺產(chǎn)中找到，比如軍團(tuán)的起源，等待著人們的黑暗危險，亦或是是陰險的鑄造師的名字。

Ymga Monolith。
