传记

千珏，作为象征死亡的一对精魂，他们互相独立，却从未分离。对于坦然接受命运的人来说，羊灵的长弓可以痛快地送他们离开生者的乐园，而妄图逃脱宿命的人则由狼灵追捕，痛苦地倒在他有力的撕咬下。虽然在符文之地上到处是关于千珏的不同传言，但每个人在临终时都会看到死亡的真正面孔。至于是哪一面，完全出自个人的抉择。

Separate, but never parted, Kindred represents the twin essences of death. Lamb’s bow offers a swift release from the mortal realm for those who accept their fate. Wolf hunts down those who run from their end, delivering violent finality within his crushing jaws. Though interpretations of Kindred’s nature vary across Runeterra, every mortal must choose the true face of their death.

Separate, but never parted, Kindred represents the twin essences of death. Lamb’s bow offers a swift release from the mortal realm for those who accept their fate. Wolf hunts down those who run from their end, delivering violent finality within his crushing jaws. Though interpretations of Kindred’s nature vary across Runeterra, every mortal must choose the true face of their death.

千珏既是白色空无的最后怀抱，也是黑暗世界的吮血利齿。牧人与屠夫、诗人和野兽……他们融为一体，对面成双。当一个可怜的人命悬一线时，他喉头的呻吟在千珏听来甚于洪钟。若是从容面对羊灵手中银白的长弓，她会让你毫无痛苦地去向极乐。但如果你抗拒挣扎，狼灵便会愉悦地开始他的捕猎。而每一次追捕，都以惨烈的死亡收场。

Kindred is the white embrace of nothingness and the gnashing of teeth in the dark. Shepherd and the butcher, poet and the primitive, they are one and both. When caught on the edge of life, louder than any trumpeting horn, it is the hammering pulse at one’s throat that calls Kindred to their hunt. Stand and greet Lamb’s silvered bow and her arrows will lay you down swiftly. If you refuse her, Wolf will join you for his merry hunt, where every chase runs to its brutal end.

从符文之地的人们对死亡有概念以来，千珏就一直在大地上四处漂流。据说，当死亡到来时，一个真正的德玛西亚人会选择接受羊灵的利箭;而在诺克萨斯的暗巷黑街，则随时可见狼灵追猎时飘忽的身影。弗雷尔卓德的冰天雪地中，某些部族会在开拔战场之前举行“吻狼”的仪式，发誓以敌人的鲜血称颂狼灵的追捕。而每年的蚀魂夜之后，比尔吉沃特的镇民们会聚在一起，一边庆祝彼此的幸存，一边纪念被双子终结的灵魂。

For as long as its people have known death, Kindred has stalked Valoran. When the final moment comes, it is said a true Demacian will turn to Lamb, taking the arrow, while through the shadowed streets of Noxus, Wolf leads the hunt. In the snows of the Freljord, before going off to fight, some warbands “kiss the Wolf,” vowing to honor his chase with the blood of their enemies. After each Harrowing, the town of Bilgewater gathers to celebrate its survivors and honor those granted a true death by Lamb and Wolf.

否认千珏的存在即是否认万事运行的自然规律。不过，仍有一些畸怪的灵魂逃脱了命运的安排。但他们落得流离失所，每日担惊受怕的苟活不亚于活在一场永无止境的噩梦中。千珏耐心地守望着那些被关押在暗影岛地下的活死人。因为他们知道，所有不肯安息的活物，都终将葬身于羊弓或狼牙之下。

Denying Kindred is to deny the natural order of things. There are but a wretched few who have eluded these hunters. This perverse escape is no sanctuary, for it only holds a waking nightmare. Kindred waits for those locked in the undeath of the Shadow Isles, for they know all will eventually fall to Lamb’s bow or Wolf’s teeth.

永猎双子最早有迹可查的记录是一对来自远古时代的面具，由无名的工匠刻在了被遗忘之人的坟茔上。而如今，羊灵和狼灵形影不离，千珏的名字也已经历经了无数年代，无人不知。

The earliest dated appearance of the eternal hunters is from a pair of ancient masks, carved by unknown hands into the gravesites of people long-forgotten. But to this day, Lamb and Wolf remain together, and they are always Kindred.
