Ollanius Persson is a Perpetual and mysterious figure in history related to the myth of Ollanius Pius.

欧兰尼奥斯·佩松是永生者，历史上与欧兰尼奥斯·皮乌斯神话有关的神秘的人物。

Ollanius Persson 欧兰尼奥斯·佩松

History 历史

Ancient History 古代历史

Ollanius Persson was born as one of the mysterious Perpetuals, and has lived so many lives that he has forgotten his true age. However he estimates that as of the Horus Heresy he was roughly 45,000 years old "give or take", which would place his birth around 15,000 B.C. in the city of Nineveh. If this is to be believed, it would make him even older than the Emperor, who according to older sources was born around 8,000 B.C.. He is said to be the oldest Perpetual. He explicitly said he is older than the Emperor. 

欧兰尼奥斯·佩松诞生时是神秘的永生者之一，他活了很长时间，以至于忘记了自己的真实年龄。然而，他估计，截至荷鲁斯叛乱时期，他大约有45000岁，这意味着他大约在公元前15000年出生在尼尼微城。如果这是真的，这将使他比帝皇更老，根据更古老的资料，帝皇诞生在公元前8000年左右。据说他是最古老的永生者。他明确表示自己比帝皇年长。

In Terra's ancient past, Ollanius acted as the Warmaster of the Emperor's armies. During a war in East Phoenicia against a Chaos Cult said to be the proto-Cognitae, the Emperor and Ollanius' armies besieged a massive tower etched in Enuncia that was being erected. After emerging victorious, Ollanius sought to destroy the tower and all the dark knowledge it contained. However the Emperor refused, instead wishing to preserve the knowledge for use against future threats. Disenchanted with the Emperor, Ollanius stabbed him with a dagger before using Enuncia to destroy the tower and escape.

在泰拉的古代历史中，欧兰尼奥斯曾担任帝皇军队的统帅。在东腓尼基与据说是原始闻道学派的混沌教派的战争中，帝皇和欧兰尼奥斯的军队围攻了一座正在建造的刻有暗言的巨大塔楼。在取得胜利后，欧兰尼奥斯试图摧毁这座塔及其所包含的所有黑暗知识。然而，帝皇拒绝了，而是希望保留这些知识以应对未来的威胁。欧兰尼奥斯对帝皇感到失望，用匕首刺伤了他，然后用暗言摧毁了塔楼并逃跑了。

Having lived through all of recorded human history, he makes first-hand reference to historical and mythological events such as being one of the Argonauts, participating in the Battle of Austerlitz (during the Napoleonic Wars), the Siege of Verdun (during the First World War), and the Battle of 73 Easting (during the Gulf War), amongst others.

在经历了所有有记录的人类历史之后，他直接经历了历史事件和神话事件，例如作为阿尔戈英雄之一，参加了奥斯特利茨战役（拿破仑战争期间）、凡尔登围城战（第一次世界大战期间）和73东行战役（海湾战争期间）等。

Battle of Calth 考斯之战

By the 31st Millennium Ollanius Persson had become known as 'Pious' Oll Persson because of his devout belief in the Catheric religion and was a civilian farmer of Calth in the Ultramar system. Before this, he had been a private soldier in the Imperial Army who earned the right to retire; being gifted with service-shares for a plot of land proportionate to his years served (rounded down - the Army always rounded down), he decided to cash them in on Calth, taking on twenty hectares. He chose Calth for two main reasons; the first was that if service-shares were used to buy land on a world newly-opened for colonisation, travel-fares to that world were paid for. The second was that, out in the farther reaches of the Imperium, under the banner of the "New Empire" being forged by Roboute Guilliman and his Ultramarines, Persson felt that it would be easier to practice his faith without incident; religious faith was widely looked down upon in the Imperium as unscientific nonsense. Persson settled down on Calth, living comfortably enough for eighteen years. The only indicators of his past as a soldier were the fading tattoo on his arm, the battered lasrifle mounted on his wall, and the company of an ex-Army loader servitor named Graft, that could not be dissuaded from referring to Oll as 'Trooper Persson'. To others, including his neighbours and several employees, he was just old 'Pious Oll'.

到第31个千年，欧兰尼奥斯·佩松因其对天主宗教的虔诚信仰而被称为“虔诚的”欧尔·佩松，并且是奥特拉玛星系中考斯的平民农民。在此之前，他曾是帝国军队的一名列兵，有权退役；他获得了与服役年限成比例的一块土地的服役股份（四舍五入-陆军总是四舍五进），他决定在考斯上兑现这些股份，占地20公顷。他选择考斯有两个主要原因；首先，如果服役股份被用来购买一个新开放的殖民地上的土地，那么前往那个世界的航行费用不会被支付。第二个原因是，在帝国的偏远地区，在罗伯特·基里曼和他的极限战士打造的“新帝国”的旗帜下，佩松觉得更容易毫无意外地实践他的信仰；在帝国时期，宗教信仰被普遍视为不科学的无稽之谈。佩松在考斯定居下来，过了18年的舒适生活。他过去是一名士兵的唯一迹象是他手臂上褪色的纹身，墙上安装的破旧的激光步枪，以及一位名叫格拉夫特的前陆军装弹兵的陪伴，他忍不住称欧尔为“士兵佩松”。对其他人来说，包括他的邻居和几名员工，他只是老“虔诚的欧尔”。

Oll was present on Calth when the Word Bearers Space Marine Legion attacked the Ultramarines during the Great Betrayal. The initial strikes from impacting orbital debris (once ship yards and vessels of the Ultramarine fleet) reminded him, terrifyingly, of his last campaign in the Army, upon the world of Chrysophar. Oll turned to his faith to help him survive during this time, and was knocked unconscious shortly after uttering a prayer to his god. During this unconscious period, Oll appeared to dream of being visited by an old friend of his; John Grammaticus. Unwilling to converse with Grammaticus, Oll attempted to carry on preparing breakfast for his wife; Grammaticus was forced to remind him that his wife died long before he joined the Army. Long before the last time he joined the Army, to be exact. Oll also refused to listen to John's attempts to remind him of their old brotherhood-in-arms in such conflicts as those that took place at Anatol Hive and the Panpacific on Terra, "several lifetimes ago". Finally, Grammaticus used Oll's status as one of the few remaining Perpetuals in existence and the onus that came with it to somewhat reluctantly guilt him into paying attention.

在“大背叛”期间，当怀言者星际战士军团袭击极限战士时，欧尔就在考斯。撞击轨道碎片（曾经是极限战士的造船厂和船只）的最初打击让他可怕地想起了他在军队的最后一次战役，那是在克里索法尔世界。在这段时间里，欧尔转向他的信仰来帮助他生存，在向他的神祈祷后不久就被击倒了。在这段无意识的时期，欧尔似乎梦到了他的一位老朋友来访；约翰·格拉马迪库斯。欧尔不愿与格拉马迪库斯交谈，试图继续为妻子准备早餐；格拉马迪库斯不得不提醒他，他的妻子早在他参军之前就去世了。确切地说，早在他上次参军之前。欧尔也拒绝听约翰试图提醒他，在“几世前”发生在阿纳托尔巢都和泰拉上的泛太平洋的冲突中，他们曾经是战友。最后，格拉马迪库斯利用欧尔作为现存少数几个永生者之一的地位，以及随之而来的责任，让他有点不情愿地让他注意到。

I'm only what I am now thanks to xenos intervention. You, you're a true Perpetual. You're still like him.

多亏了异型的干预，我才有了现在的样子。你，你是一个真正的永生者。你仍然像他一样。

— John Grammaticus speaking to Ollanius Persson.

— 约翰·格拉马迪库斯与欧兰尼奥斯·佩松交谈。

Grammaticus delivered the news that without their intervention, "he" was going to lose the war, and that if "he" lost, the human race would lose. Grammaticus urged his old friend to leave Calth via "Immaterium sidestep" and gain an object for him. When Persson asked where he was supposed to go, Grammaticus replied that he would show him:

格拉马迪库斯宣告，如果没有他们的干预，“他”将输掉这场战争，如果“他”输了，人类也会输。格拉马迪库斯敦促他的老朋友通过“虚境跳跃”离开考斯，为他获得一个物品。当佩松问他应该去哪里时，格拉马迪库斯回答说他会带他去：

Persson then found himself transported from his comfortable dream-environment to one of horror; aboard a space vessel at war, but a vessel that was unnatural and disturbing, orbiting a burning Terra. Entering a massive chamber, he encountered a dead angel lying upon the floor, his brutal killer standing nearby. Taken aback by the unholy appearance of the angel's murderer, he raised his Catheric symbol and audibly renounced the Evil One that stood before him. The killer took a step towards Oll, but stopped, his attention caught by something held in Persson's hand. At that moment, a golden light coming from behind Oll flooded the chamber, a light Oll recognised as one he used to know... but weaker, and sullied. Announcing that he had seen enough, he heard Grammaticus speak as if bringing him to wakefulness.

佩松发现自己从舒适的梦境环境变成了恐怖的环境；在战争中登上一艘太空舰船，但这是一艘不自然、令人不安的飞船，绕着燃烧的泰拉轨道运行。进入一个巨大的房间，他遇到一个死去的天使躺在地板上，残忍的杀手就站在附近。被杀害天使的凶手的邪恶外表吓了一跳，他举起了他的天主标志，大声宣布放弃站在他面前的邪恶。凶手朝欧尔走了一步，但停了下来，他的注意力被佩松手里拿着的东西吸引住了。就在那一刻，一道金色的光芒从欧尔身后照进了房间，欧尔认出这是他以前认识的光...但更虚弱，更肮脏。他宣告他已经看够了，他听到格拉马迪库斯说话，仿佛让他清醒过来。

Waking up in what was left of his lands, Persson resolved to escape from the ongoing Battle of Calth, aiding a number of other survivors on the way, many of whom banded together with him and accompanied him off-world. Before leaving, he managed to acquire an athame ritual blade from a Chaos Cultist that he believed may be the item he was supposed to fetch, to be used for something utterly important. Persson and his survivors consisting of Graft, Dogent Krank, Bale Rane, Hebet Zybes, and Katt left Calth by use of apparent sorcerous techniques; he used the athame to open what appeared to be a form of warp-gate and stepped through.

在剩下的土地上醒来后，佩松决定逃离正在进行的考斯战役，在途中帮助其他一些幸存者，其中许多人与他联合起来，陪同他离开世界。在离开之前，他设法从一位混沌教派信徒那里获得了一把仪式匕首，他认为这可能是他应该拿的东西，用来做一些非常重要的事情。佩松和他的幸存者，包括格拉夫特、多根特·克兰克、巴勒·莱恩、赫贝特·齐贝斯和凯特，通过使用明显的魔法技术离开了考斯；他用仪式匕首打开了一个看起来像亚空间门的东西，然后走了进去。

Journey to Terra 泰拉之行

For the next six years Persson and his small band wandered through both space and time using the Athame and a warp-sensitive compass, attempting to reach Terra at the behest of Grammaticus. They were hunted by a variety of foes: the Word Bearers, Alpha Legion, Daemons, and assassins of the Cabal bent on seeing Horus victorious. On the world of Andrioch they emerged shortly after the end of the revolt of the Iron Men and became stranded for two years. There, Persson speculated on what to do next but was confronted by John Grammaticus who urged him to go back. However Persson saw through the deception and killed Grammaticus with his Athame, revealing that his friend was a shape-shifting impostor of the Alpha Legion. With few options left, Persson led his band through a cosmic void left behind by the Iron Men that he would have preferred to avoid.

在接下来的六年里，佩松和他的小队使用意识匕首和一个对经线敏感的指南针在空间和时间上徘徊，试图在格拉马迪库斯的请求下到达泰拉。他们被各种各样的敌人追捕：怀言者、阿尔法军团、恶魔和阴谋团的刺客，他们一心想看到荷鲁斯获胜。在安德里奥世界里，他们在铁人叛乱结束后不久就出现了，并被困了两年。在那里，佩松猜测下一步该怎么办，但遭到了约翰·格拉马迪库斯的质问，后者敦促他回去。然而，佩松看穿了欺骗，用他的仪式匕首杀死了格拉马迪库斯，并透露他的朋友是阿尔法军团的变形骗子。在几乎没有选择的情况下，佩松带领他的小队穿过了铁人留下的大的宇宙巨洞，而他本想避免这个。

Later in a meeting with Erda on Terra, John Grammaticus was shocked to find that Persson had not rendezvoused with him as planned. Erda suspected that Persson had arrived in the wrong time, perhaps before or after the agreed period. She consulted the stars and her tarot cards to determine that Persson had arrived on Terra two weeks later than Grammaticus.

后来在泰拉上与尔达会面时，约翰·格拉马迪库斯震惊地发现佩松没有按计划与他会面。尔达怀疑佩松到达的时间不对，可能是在约定的时间之前或之后。她观察了群星和塔罗牌，确定佩松比格拉马迪库斯晚两周到达泰拉。

Terra 泰拉

After a seeming eternity of travels throughout space and time, Ollanius and his group finally emerged on Terra. However they found themselves in the Hatay-Antakya Hive region, now occupied by the Emperor's Children and transformed into a horrific dream garden known as "paradise". Within paradise, desperate civilians seeking escape from the horrors of the Siege of Terra were entrapped within in vines and had their dreams harvested by the Emperor's Children, who consumed them. Oll and his group were only saved from Paradise and the Emperor's Children by John Grammaticus and Leetu. During the struggle to escape paradise, Bale Rane was slain by Slaaneshi Daemons, and the group was nearly again overcome before being saved by Actae and a Space Marine identifying himself as Alpharius. Despite the pleas of John, Ollanius agreed to have the duo aid them in their quest. Together, the group, now known affectionately by Grammaticus as the "Argonauts", acquired an Arvus Lighter and flew to the Imperial Palace across Terra's ravaged landscape. However as they crossed the frontline, they were shot down and crashed into the Inner Palace. Oll and others were guided by "Alpharius" into hidden passages with the intent to reach the Sanctum Imperialis.

在经历了看似永恒的时空之旅后，欧兰尼奥斯和他的团队终于出现在泰拉上。然而，他们发现自己身处哈塔伊·安塔基亚巢都地区，现在被帝皇之子们占据，变成了一个被称为“天堂”的可怕的梦幻花园。在天堂里，绝望的平民试图逃离泰拉围城的恐怖，他们被困在藤蔓中，他们的梦想被帝皇之子们收获，并被吃掉了。欧尔和他的团队是由约翰·格拉马迪库斯和勒图从天堂和皇帝之子中拯救出来的。在逃离天堂的战斗中，巴勒·莱恩被色孽恶魔杀害，该组织几乎再次被击败，然后被阿克泰和一名自称阿尔法瑞斯的星际战士救下。尽管约翰恳求，欧兰尼奥斯还是同意让两人帮助他们。这个现在被格拉马迪库斯亲切地称为“阿戈尔英雄”的团体获得了一个阿维鲁斯驳船，并穿过泰拉被破坏的景观飞往皇宫。然而，当他们越过前线时，他们被击落并撞向了内殿。欧尔和其他人被“阿尔法瑞斯”引导进入隐藏的通道，意图到达帝国圣地。

Within the Palace, the "Argonauts" were deliberately detained by Custodes and Malcador's Chosen for interrogation. Using his knowledge of the Emperor's past and ability to sneak into the Imperial Dungeon undetected as evidence that he was someone of great significance, the Custodes eventually agreed to his request to take them before the Emperor. However by this point, the Emperor had already left to fight Horus aboard the Vengeful Spirit and the group was instead met by Vulkan. Despite pleading his mission to a sympathetic Vulkan, Ollanius despaired that he had apparently failed in his quest.

在皇宫内，“阿戈尔英雄”被禁军和马卡多亲选拘留审问。利用他对帝皇过去的了解和不被发现潜入帝国地牢的能力，作为他是一个重要人物的证据，禁军最终同意了他的要求，将他们带到帝皇面前。然而，此时，帝皇已经跳帮复仇之魂号去与荷鲁斯作战，而这群人却遭到了沃坎的迎接。尽管欧兰尼奥斯向仁慈的沃坎倾诉了自己的使命，但他仍感到绝望，因为他显然未能完成自己的任务。

Ollanius was ultimately convinced by his companions and a mysterious spool of string to continue their quest, believing the string had been sent by them from the future as a way to mark their path. However the group eventually encountered Erebus, who had been hunting them since Calth. During the ensuing struggle Erebus slew all of Oll's companions save Leetu and John, while Actae was buried under rubble. Again falling into despair, Ollanius was only convinced to move forward by John and Leetu. Along the way, they were nearly killed by a group of maddened Word Bearers until being rescued by the presence of the Emperor, who by now was swelling into a proto-god dubbed the Dark King.

欧兰尼奥斯最终被他的同伴和一根神秘的线轴说服，继续他们的任务，相信这根线轴是他们从未来寄来的，作为标记他们前进道路的一种方式。然而，该组织最终遇到了艾瑞巴斯，他自考斯以来一直在追捕他们。在随后的战斗中，艾瑞巴斯杀死了欧尔的所有同伴，只留下勒图和约翰，而阿克泰则被埋在瓦砾下。欧兰尼奥斯再次陷入绝望，只有约翰和勒图说服他继续前进。一路上，他们差点被一群疯狂的怀言者杀死，直到被帝皇的存在救了出来，帝皇现在已经膨胀成一个被称为黑暗之王的原初之神。

Persson confronted his own friend, talking him down from the abyss of corruption by reminding Him of His humanity. Shocked that He had encountered Persson for the first time in millennia at this specific place at this specific time, Persson convinced the Emperor to have faith and give up the power He had built up even if it meant gambling humanity's future in a battle He was likely not to win. This ultimately convinced the Emperor to shed the mantle of the evolving Dark King, causing a blast of power to sweep across both Terra and the Vengeful Spirit that banished much of the Warp-madness spread by the traitors. The Emperor then let out an announcement across the Vengeful Spirit for all remaining companions to come join Him in the final battle to kill Horus, a battle He was no longer certain to win. However, the Emperor forbid Oll and John from following Him and instead gave back the spool of thread they had initially followed, ordering them to retrace their steps and leave it in order for them to close the time loop they had created.

佩松直面自己的朋友，通过提醒他的人性，把他从腐蚀的深渊中拉了出来。令人震惊的是，他数千年来第一次在这个特定的时间和地点遇到了佩松，佩松说服帝皇要有信心，放弃他建立的权力，即使这意味着在一场他可能不会赢的战斗中赌上人类的未来。这最终说服了帝皇摆脱了不断进化的黑暗之王的衣钵，引发了一股席卷泰拉和复仇之魂的力量，驱逐了叛徒传播的大部分亚空间疯狂。然后，帝皇通过复仇之魂发布宣告，让所有剩余的同伴加入他杀死荷鲁斯的最后一场战斗，这场战斗他不再确定会赢。然而，皇帝禁止欧尔和约翰跟随他，而是归还了他们最初跟随的那卷线，命令他们往回走，离开它，以便他们关闭他们创造的时间循环。

However while they undertook their task, Oll discovered that their shattered Athame blade had since been restored by the Emperor. Feeling that they needed to return to the Emperor's side immediately to give him the weapon, Oll ordered Actae to teleport he and John to Lupercal's Court. The act proved difficult, but the duo eventually emerged directly at the feet of Horus just as he stood over the defeated Emperor. Horrified by the monster before them, John spoke a word of Enuncia, sending Horus across the room and briefly incapacitating him. Oll convinced John to flee by demanding he see travel into the past to finish their task. Oll then rushed to the Emperor's side and begged him to wake up, handing him the Athame blade. However, the Emperor would not stir. Oll then saw two of the Emperor's tarot cards next to him: The Guardsman and the Lantern, side by side. Oll recognized this as the Emperor speaking to him, the two friends finally reunited in that moment. Oll then realized Horus was recovering and soon approaching them. Oll again started begging the Emperor to get up, before turning to defend him. Proclaiming that he would not allow Horus to touch the Emperor, Oll unloaded his Lasgun into the chest of the monstrous entity before him. Horus contemptuously reduced Ollanius Persson into red mist with his talon.

然而，当他们执行任务时，欧尔发现他们破碎的仪式匕首已经被帝皇修复了。感觉他们需要立即回到帝皇身边把武器交给他，欧尔命令阿克泰将他和约翰传送到卢佩卡尔王庭。事实证明，这一行为很困难，但当荷鲁斯站在战败的帝皇面前时，两人最终直接出现在荷鲁斯脚下。被面前的怪物吓坏了，约翰说了一句暗言，让荷鲁斯穿过房间，短暂地使他丧失了能力。欧尔说服约翰逃跑，要求他穿越过去完成任务。然后，欧尔冲到帝皇身边，恳求他醒来，递给他仪式匕首。然而，帝皇没有动。然后，欧尔看到两张帝皇塔罗牌在他旁边：卫兵和灯笼。欧尔认出这是帝皇对他说话，两个朋友终于在那一刻团聚了。欧尔意识到荷鲁斯正在恢复，很快就接近了他们。欧尔再次恳求帝皇站起来，然后转身守护他。宣称他不会允许荷鲁斯触碰帝皇，欧尔用他的激光枪射入了他面前的怪物的胸膛。荷鲁斯轻蔑地用爪子把欧兰尼奥斯·佩松变成了红雾。

Ollanius Persson stands his ground before Horus 欧兰尼奥斯·佩松站在荷鲁斯面前

Legacy 遗留

The significance of Oll's actions cannot be understated. His efforts would help buy the Emperor enough time to recover, and crucially, by placing the Athame blade into the unconscious hands of his old friend, provide a means for the Master of Mankind to finally bring about the end and the death of his fallen son.

欧尔行为的重要性不容低估。他的努力将有助于为帝皇争取足够的时间来恢复，而且至关重要的是，通过将仪式匕首放入他无意识的老朋友的手中，为人类之主提供了一种手段，最终导致他的堕落之子的死亡。

Ollanius Perssons legend eventually became intertangled with that of others such as Ollanius Piers, creating the myth of Saint Ollanius Pius.

欧兰尼奥斯·佩松的传说最终与欧兰尼奥斯·皮乌斯等其他人的传说交织在一起，创造了圣欧兰尼奥斯·皮乌斯的神话。
