`You said she would be unharmed (ты сказал, она будет невредимой)! Shool! You said she would be safe (ты сказал, она будет целой)!
`So she is — in the arms of a loving husband (она такая и есть — в руках любящего мужа), came an offended voice from nowhere (раздался из ниоткуда обиженный голос).
`Release her, Shool!
The scene dissolved (видение исчезло). Rhalina stood panting and terrified in the chamber that had no door (Ралина стояла, задыхаясь, напуганная = дрожа от страха в комнате, у которой не было дверей).
`Corum?
Corum ran forward and held her, but she drew away with a shudder (Корум бросился вперед и обнял ее, но она отстранилась с содроганием;
`Is it Corum? Are you some phantom (ты призрак)? I made a bargain to save Corum (я заключила сделку, чтобы спасти Корума) …
`I am Corum. In turn, I have made a bargain to save you, Rhalina (я тоже заключил сделку, чтобы спасти тебя, Ралина;
`I had not realised it would be so foul (я не понимала, что это будет так отвратительно;

Corum ran forward and held her, but she drew away with a shudder.

`I am Corum. In turn, I have made a bargain to save you, Rhalina.
`I had not realised it would be so foul. I did not understand the terms… He was going to…
`Even the dead have their pleasures, Mistress Rhalina (даже у мертвых есть свои развлечения/забавы, госпожа Ралина). An anthropoid creature in a green coat and breeks stood behind them (человекообразное существо в зеленой куртке и штанах стояло позади них). It noted Corum's astonishment with pleasure (оно с удовольствием заметило изумление Корума). `I have several bodies I can utilize (у меня есть несколько тел, которые я могу использовать). This was an ancestor of the Nhadragh, I think (таким был предок надрагов, думаю). One of those races (одного из тех народов).
`Who is it, Corum (кто это, Корум)? Rhalina asked. She drew closer to him and he held her comfortingly now (она прижалась к нему и он обнял ее утешающе;
`This is Shool-an-Jyvan. He claims to be a God (он утверждает, что он бог;

`Who is it, Corum? Rhalina asked. She drew closer to him and he held her comfortingly now. Her whole body shook. Her skin was oddly damp.
`This is Shool-an-Jyvan. He claims to be a God. It was he who saw that your Summoning was answered. He has suggested that I perform an errand for him and in return he will allow you to live safely here until I return. Then we will leave together.
`But why did he…?
`It was not you I wanted but your lover (мне нужна была не ты, а твой любовник), Shool said impatiently (сказал Шул нетерпеливо). `Now I have broken my promise to your husband I have lost my power over him (теперь, /когда/ я нарушил обещание, /данное/ твоему мужу, я потерял власть над ним;
`You have lost your power over Moidel, the Margrave (ты утратил власть над Мойделом, маркграфом)? Rhalina asked.
`Yes, yes. He is completely dead (/теперь/ он окончательно мертв). It would be far too much effort to revive him again (потребовалось бы намного больше усилий, чтобы оживить его снова).
