14 the Huntress
сущ.; собст.; SK, DTОхотница; Охотничья ЛунаНазвание Сентября в мире Роланда.Some called Huntress the last moon of summer; some called it the first of fall. Whichever it was, it signaled a change in the life of the Barony. Men put out into the bay wearing sweaters beneath their oilskins as the winds began to turn more and more firmly into autumn’s east-west alley, and to sharpen as they turned. — Некоторые называли Охотничьей последнюю луну лета, другие считали ее первой луной осени. Как бы то ни было, восход Охотничьей Луны воспринимался как сигнал к переменам в размеренной жизни феода. Мужчины, выходя в море, поддевали свитер под непромокаемые куртки, потому что ветер свежел и становился гораздо холоднее. (ТБ 4)
In Mejis the time of reaping had begun, while overhead, clearer and clearer on each starry night, the Huntress pulled her bow and looked east over those strange, watery leagues no man or woman of Mid-World had ever seen. — В Меджисе сбор урожая начался, когда Охотничья Луна превратилась в полумесяц, который каждую звездную ночь поглядывал кончиками на восток, за бескрайнее море, где не бывали ни один мужчина, ни одна женщина Срединного мира. (ТБ 4)
Now the Huntress “filled her belly,” as the old-timers said—even at noon she could be glimpsed in the sky, a pallid vampire woman caught in bright autumn sunlight. — Охотница начала “набивать живот”, как говорили старожилы: даже в полдень луна виднелась в небе, поблескивая в ярком осеннем свете. (ТБ 4)
