Arrival
初來乍到
King Diamond
"That must be it"
「就是那裡了。」
Through the summer rain of 1845
The coach had finally arrived
To the valley where the crossroads meet below
And where all darkness seems to grow
People blame it on the Hill
The hill where no one dares to go...
The Mansion
穿過1845年的夏日大雨
馬車終於來到
道路交會的山谷中
那兒似乎一切黑暗都增長
人們歸咎於那山丘
那無人膽敢踏上的山丘……
那宅邸!
The coach had stopped and from the window you could see
7 horsemen in the night
Miriam Natias and Jonathan LaFey
Saw the magic in their eyes
They were in for a surprise
The darkness would soon be complete
A horseman came forth from the dark
馬車已停住,透過窗戶,你能看見
七個騎士在夜色之中
瑪麗安.納塔斯和夫婿強納森.勒菲
目睹這等奇事
俱感驚訝不已
天色便要徹底地黒了
一個騎士自暗處來到他們面前
"We know You've come to inherit what's Yours...The Mansion
Take our advise and go back on this night
If you refuse 18 will become 9...Oh No"
Oh 18 is 9
「我們知道你來繼承屬於你的財產……這棟宅邸
但聽我們的勸,今晚就回去吧
如果你不聽,十八將會變成九……噢!不!」
噢,十八便是九註
[註]惡魔數字9貫穿了整個故事。
主角LaFey夫婦的年紀分別是Jonathan LaFey(夫)27歲,
Miriam Natias (妻)18歲;相差9歲。
這兩個數字的個別加總(2+7、1+8)也分別為9。
「十八就是九」暗示Miriam已經懷了Abigail。
Jonathan laughed and said "Get out of My way"
"I don't believe a word You say"
The 7 horsemen disapeared into the night
and said "Someday You'll need our help my friend"
強納森大笑說,「閃開別擋路!」
「我才不相信你說的鬼話!」
七位騎士消失在夜色之中
並說,「有天你將會需要我們的協助,朋友。」
I think poor Jonathan was scared
我想可憐的強納森真的嚇到了
18 is actually 9...It stuck in his mind
十八實則為九……這話深深印在他腦海
(高仕艷 譯)

Deep into the darkness peering, long I stood there, wondering, fearing
Doubting, dreaming dreams no mortals ever dared to dream before...
