菲谢尔皇女夜谭 Flowers for Princess Fischl

本书系《菲谢尔皇女夜谭》系列的设定集。

The preliminary volume of the "Flowers for Princess Fischl" series.

最初为原作紫黑木盒版之限量赠品，但由于内容丰富，印量极少，惹怒了大量跟随连载购书的铁杆书迷群体。

This work originally came in a violet and black wooden box as a limited edition gift, but many hardcore fans of the series who wanted to collect the whole saga were enraged by the great amount of content versus the small number of copies printed.

不得已之下，八重堂将本作命名为「第零卷」单独发售。此后，原作、紫黑木盒收藏版与「第零卷」一同被核心向粉丝奉为圭臬。

Due to this, Yae Publishing House would name this book "Volume 0" and sell it separately. Eventually, the original work, the boxed collector's edition, and Volume 0 would all come to be regarded as standard by fans.

「极夜幻想组曲」

Phantasmagoria

「…梦还活着。」

"...The dream lives on."

上面这句台词在每一个故事的中段都会出现，并且大部分时候都是由幽夜净土的皇后所说。这并不是绝大部分读者最为关心的系列谜团，但是我们还是需要从这里开始。

Such words surely must appear the midst of every tale, and they are largely the words of the Kaiserin of the Immernachtreich. This, surely, is not the enigma that concerns the greatest majority of readers, but we must still start here nonetheless.

【奥兹华尔多·赫芙那梵茵斯】

Ozvaldo Hrafnavins

强大的夜鸦之王。如果说菲谢尔的战斗力有十，世界之兽的平均强度在十五左右的话，奥兹华尔多的战斗力可能有十三。从它单枪匹马在第一卷覆灭了「黄昏」的战绩就能看出来其力量的强大。

The mighty lord of the Nachtraben. If Fischl's strength in battle might be considered a ten, and the Beasts of the World should have an average of fifteen, then Ozvaldo's strength may be considered thirteen. His great power was on display when he destroyed Dämmerung in Volume 1.

*不过「夜之幕帘」本身就是「黄昏色」之天敌就是了。

*That said, the Nachtvorhang is itself the nemesis of Dämmerung anyway.

而奥兹华尔多对于菲谢尔的情感，九老师本人并不认为是爱情，可能是鸟类的印随现象。

As for the feelings that Ozvaldo holds towards Fischl, Mr. Nine does not believe it to be romance, but more likely a form of imprinting common to bird-kindred.

（主编加笔：不用管作者的看法。读者们请随意描绘自己心中幽夜净土的人物关系。）

(Editor-in-Chief's Note: Regardless of what the author says, dear readers, you are free to interpret the personal relationships of the characters from Immernachtreich however you like.)

另外，夜鸦亲王并非是一个很高贵的头衔。夜鸦一族本身以多出阴谋者和诅咒师闻名。奥兹华尔多坚持这个头衔，恐怕是因为区区「夜之王」哪里敢在「幽夜」面前以此自称呢？

Aside from this, the title "Prince Nachtraben" is not a particularly high-flown one, considering that the night ravens have always been known for being conspirators and bearers of curses. Ozvaldo likely insisted on this title, for how could a mere "King of the Night" call himself thus before the Immernachtreich?

【世界之兽·最大杰作Gesamtkunstwerk】

Beast of the World: Gesamtkunstwerk

在某种可能性中，这一轮幽夜净土所面对的「世界之兽」。战斗力大概三十左右吧。

In certain probabilities, this is the Beast of the World that the Immernachtreich would be faced with in this cycle. Its battle strength is around thirty.

在久远过去的因果之中，如果没有选择「哲人·苏鲁支」，那么歌剧作者就会赢得世界意志的胜利。

In a distant causality, if the philosopher Zarathustra was not chosen, then the opera writer would have gained victory in the contest over the will of the world.

在世界末日的歌剧院中，《最大杰作》一旦开始表演，位于诸多宇宙中心的世界之兽就会不可避免地被召唤。

Once Gesamtkunstwerk takes the stage in the opera theater of the apocalypse, many more Beasts of the World that reside within the center of the universe will inexorably begin to appear as well.

最后一卷中，【世界之兽·七泪圣徒】的弱小（战斗力和菲谢尔持平，也就是十）超出常理。最开始的选择似乎没有什么可以责难之处。圣徒只是在为苏鲁支垂泪。

In the final volume, the weakness of the Beast of the World: Saint of Seven Tears (whose combat strength was ten, and therefore equal to Fischl) was quite out of the ordinary, and the Saint merely wept for Zarathustra at first, a choice that seems undeserving of any blame.

苏鲁支和音乐家都为了赞美断罪皇女而活。一个宣说着她心的苦难，一个却在说她旅程的宏大。皇女不会选择后者的，因为怪丢人的。

Both Zarathustra and The Musician exist to give praise unto the Prinzessin der Verurteilung. One proclaims the agony she suffers in her heart, while the other proclaims the grandeur of her travails. The Prinzessin, of course, will not favor the latter, for of such things would she be ashamed.

【夏宫灵囿】

Sommernachtgarten

传说中魔道的大能力者都会拥有的独立意识空间，针对此人的爱、恨、憧憬、嫉妒、追随、狂热之灵魂，都会存放于此。在其他小说和虚构故事里，这种空间会被叫做夏土（Summerland）。

It is said that those who are highly-skilled in the magical arts will possess their own unique domains of consciousness. Their loves, hatreds, yearnings, jealousies, adherence, and passions of the soul will be stored here. In the fictional tales of other novels, this space is called Summerland.

皇女的夏宫灵囿大概也是这么一个意象吧。最后没有很好的发掘这个要素，说实话很可惜。

The Sommernachtgarten of the Prinzessin is something in this vein. That this concept was never well-explored in the end remains quite the pity.

【疑似永劫轮回】

The Suspected Eternal Return

故事中许多细节不免让人怀疑，幽夜净土的皇后也曾经经历过菲谢尔所经历的一切。

Quite a few of the finer points of the tale have caused people to wonder if the Kaiserin of the Immernachtreich once experienced all that Fischl has.

菲谢尔的父皇毫无疑问并不是虚影。他威严而且强大，并且会为菲谢尔点破迷惘。可菲谢尔的母后尽管在动作行为上，能看出来拥有着丰富的个性。但是她只会说一句台词，也就是开篇所说提到的：「梦还活着。」

Fischl's father is undoubtedly not a mere shade. He is majestic and mighty, and helps Fischl to dispel her confusions. As for Fischl's mother, the Kaiserin, her actions and deeds show her to have quite an interesting character indeed. But she will only speak one line, which is, as was noted earlier in this text, "the dream lives on."

在最后一卷中，母后开篇就已经消逝，所以这一卷当然就没有出现这前半句台词。

In the final volume, Fischl's mother had already faded away, and so this volume, naturally, did not have this preceding line.

但是宇宙终局之刻，宇宙万物流入了幽夜净土，她也说了一句不明所以的话——

But as the universe entered its denouement and all things within it flowed into the Immernachtreich, she spoke another line of enigmatic intent—

「在哪里去追寻意义。夜色已深…」

"Find meaning somewhere. The night deepens..."

「在哪里去追寻意义。夜色已深，梦还活着。」

"Find meaning somewhere. The night deepens, but the dream lives on."

希望读者们，也能在每日太阳还会升起的世界里，拥有幸福。

Dear readers, I hope that you will all find happiness in this world where the sun still rises each day.

Collection of Questions and Answers

Q：请问九老师，《神霄折戟录》中的「天帝之幺女」和菲谢尔·冯·露弗施洛斯·那菲多特有什么关系呢？

Q: Dear Mr. Nine, may I ask what the relationship between the Celestial Emperor's daughter in "Legend of the Shattered Halberd" and Fischl von Luftschloss Narfidort is?

A：在《神霄折戟录》第五卷末尾觉得这个悲剧主要是因为剧情有个男主角，而且「天帝之幺女」喜欢男主角导致的，所以想要写一个不需要男主角的断罪皇女。于是就有了《菲谢尔皇女夜谭》的企划。

A: I felt that the tragedy that unfolded toward the end of Volume 5 of "Legend of the Shattered Halberd" was due to the male protagonist, and the Celestial Emperor's daughter's attraction to him. As such, I wanted to write a Prinzessin der Verurteilung who had no need of a male protagonist. This was the scaffold that would come to be "Flowers for Princess Fischl."

不过最后还是写了《神霄》第六卷，结局救回来了。虽然同时写两部作品导致了串味，但是我个人还是很满意的。

Eventually, though, I did write the sixth volume of "Halberd," which rescued the ending. There was probably some cross-pollination in the process of writing two series at the same time, but I was personally quite pleased with the result.

Q：请问满状态的弥耳他爹（阿修罗可汗与至大魔剑）与「世界之兽·最大杰作」谁更强？

Q: In a fight between Mir's dad (Khan the Asura and his sword Laevatain) at full strength versus Gesamtkunstwerk, who would come out on top?

A：我本来拒绝回答这个问题。但是主编说我不回答就把下个企划砍了。我丢了一个硬币，觉得最大杰作更强吧。

A: I originally intended to refuse to answer this question, but the editor-in-chief said that she'd axe my next manuscript if I didn't. In which case, my Mora would be on Gesamtkunstwerk.

Q：九老师你在《永别世界夫人》这卷后记里提到的脱发症状，现在好点了吗？

Q: Mr. Nine, you mentioned in "Farewell Frau Welt" that you were suffering from hair loss. Are you doing better now?

A：八重堂能不能不要收录这种问题。新版加这些东西有人看吗？

A: Could the Yae Publishing House not accept this sort of question? And do people actually read what gets added in these new editions?

（主编批语：读者们都很关心呢。他们就是冲着这个来的。）

(Editor-in-Chief's Note: Oh, but the readers are very concerned about you! And yes, they are also very concerned with the purchase of new editions.)
