The Sanctum Imperialis is the heart of the Imperial Palace on Terra and the official residence of the Emperor of Mankind.
帝国圣殿是泰拉帝国皇宫的核心，也是人类帝皇的官邸。
Sanctum Imperialis 帝国圣殿
Overview 概述
Built above the ruins of Kathmandu in the Palace's northern regions, the Sanctum Imperialis lies deep within the Inner Palace, past the Eternity Gate which is permanently guarded by two Titans of the Legio Ignatum. The central area of the Sanctum is an expanse known as the Hall of Widows. Further into the Imperial Palace lies the Imperial Dungeon. The Dungeon was built deep underground by the Emperor to be the linchpin of his grand ambition. After a long journey below the surface of Terra, one finally comes before the last door (also called the Silver Door) into the Throneroom of the Emperor himself, which is guarded by a pair of Custodes Contemptor-Galatus Dreadnoughts. Over the door is the inscription Conservus, Restituere, Revivicarem.
帝国圣殿建在皇宫北部地区加德满都废墟之上，位于内殿深处，经过永恒之门，永恒之门由烈焰军团的两名泰坦永久守卫。圣殿的中心区域是一个被称为寡妇大厅的广阔区域。在皇宫的更深处是帝国地牢。地牢是帝皇在地下深处建造的，是他雄心壮志的关键。在泰拉表面下进行了漫长的旅程后，人们终于来到了最后一扇门（也称为白银之门）之前，进入了帝皇的王座厅，王座由两名禁军蔑视者格拉图斯无畏守卫。门上刻着“保护、恢复、复兴”字样。
Sanctum Imperialis Overview 帝国圣殿概述
Past the last door the Master of Mankind is eternally seated upon Golden Throne and is accompanied by the 300-strong Hetaeron Guard. The throneroom is at least 6 kilometers long and 1 kilometer high. Behind the Golden Throne is a dormant Webway Gate, long ago part of the Emperor's ultimate ambition but dormant since being sealed 10,000 years ago. In truth, the Throneroom is itself a massive edifice rather than a simple chamber, for within lies the vast machinery that keep the Golden Throne functional. In the years since the Heresy, the machinery has grown more vast and complex as the requirements to maintain the Throne have increased. The mechanisms of the Golden Throne are like roots that spread all the way to the Astronomicon.
穿过最后一扇门，人类之主永远坐在黄金王座上，由300名强大的伙友卫队陪同。王座厅至少有6公里长，1公里高。黄金王座后面是一个休眠的网道门，很久以前是帝皇终极野心的一部分，但自从1万年前被密封以来一直处于休眠状态。事实上，王座厅本身是一座巨大的建筑，而不是一个简单的房间，因为里面有维持黄金王座功能的巨大机器。自叛乱以来的这些年里，随着维护王座的要求的增加，机器变得更加庞大和复杂。黄金王座的机械就像根，一直延伸到星炬。
Eternity Gate 永恒之门
The Tech-priests of the Adeptus Mechanicus' Adnector Concillium constantly maintain the Golden Throne, and they are the only ones besides the Adeptus Custodes and Sisters of Silence allowed to walk these halls. Along the walls of the Throneroom are thousands of outlets connected to the Golden Throne which are inserted with coffins holding a psyker. These serve to initiate the thousand daily sacrifices to keep the Golden Throne operational. Few can withstand to be before the Emperor's presence for very long without being overwhelmed. Even Custodes are are known to fall to their knees before the sight of Him.
机械神教的统合议会的技术神甫不断维护着黄金王座，他们是除了禁军和寂静修女之外唯一被允许走在这些大厅里的人。沿着王座厅的墙壁，有数千个与黄金王座相连的接口，里面插着装有灵能者的棺材。这些用于启动每天的数千牺牲，以维持黄金王座的运作。很少有人能在帝皇面前呆很长时间而不被压垮。众所周知，即使是禁军也会在他面前跪下。

The Imperial Dungeon was originally the laboratory where Amar Astarte created the Space Marines. However she destroyed her own lab during the Palace Coup in an attempt to erase her work. The Emperor had foreseen this and copied much of her work, apparently using the lab's destruction as an excuse to clear the chamber for the Webway Project.
帝国地牢最初是阿马尔·阿斯塔特创建星际战士的实验室。然而，在皇宫政变期间，她摧毁了自己的实验室，试图抹去自己的作品。帝皇预见到了这一点，并复制了她的大部分作品，显然是以实验室的破坏为借口，为网道项目清理了房间。

Hall of Leng: Former residence of the Emperor known to be a place of chronological distortion where it is said he measured the angles of space and time. The Hall exists on a pulled thread in the fabric of space-time, described as a scan on the skin of space. Ancient men built a labyrinthine structure here which the Emperor came to expand upon.
