Nostramo was the homeworld of the Night Lords Space Marine Legion until Night Haunter destroyed it.
诺斯特拉莫是午夜领主星际战士军团的家园世界,直到午夜幽魂摧毁了它。
Nostramo, on the inside edge of the Ghoul Stars, was a planet of perpetual darkness, covered in clouds of pollution and a perpetual solar eclipse. Only the planetary elite could afford artificial illumination. Murder, extortion, and theft were rampant, while the elite oppressed the vast underclass of foundry workers with hired thugs, the closest approximation the planet had to law enforcement. Violence, both interpersonal and suicide, kept the population in check.
诺斯特拉莫位于食尸鬼群星的内侧边缘,是一颗永远黑暗的星球,被污染的云层和永恒的日食所覆盖。只有行星精英才能负担得起人工照明。谋杀、勒索和盗窃猖獗,而精英阶层则用雇佣的暴徒压迫广大的铸造工人下层阶级,这是行星上最接近法律的地方。暴力,包括人际暴力和自杀,控制了人口。
Nostramo's geology contained priceless wealth, particularly huge quantities of naturally occurring adamantium. The mineral trade made Nostramo great amounts of wealth, but at the cost of vast chemical and metalworking facilities scarring the landscape, throwing up the toxic clouds that perpetually darkened the skies.
诺斯特拉莫的地质蕴藏着无价的财富,尤其是大量的天然精金。矿产贸易为诺斯特拉莫带来了巨大的财富,但代价是巨大的化学和金属加工设施在景观上留下了疤痕,扬起了永远笼罩天空的有毒云层。
The planet's synchronicity with its moon, Tenebor, kept the planet under the darkness of a solar eclipse even in the height of summer. As a result, the human population of Nostramo had pale albino skin and black eyes adapted to live in an environment of near-total darkness.
这颗行星与其卫星特内波的同步性使这颗行星即使在盛夏也处于日食的黑暗中。因此,诺斯特拉莫的人口有着苍白的白化皮肤和黑色的眼睛,适应了几乎完全黑暗的环境。
The Nostraman Damnatii Solar Auxilia Regiments were originally mustered from Nostramo, before the planets destruction at the hands of the Night Haunter, after the destruction the Damnatii mustered from across the Nostramo Sector and beyond.
诺斯特拉莫定罪者太阳辅助军最初是从诺斯特拉莫召集而来的,在行星被午夜幽魂摧毁之前,定罪者从诺斯特拉莫星区内外召集而来。
The Purging of Nostramo Quintus 诺斯特拉莫昆图斯净化
One year, the petty criminals of Nostramo Quintus started turning up gruesomely dismembered. This pattern soon stretched to corrupt bureaucrats and protestors as the long, hot summer stretched on. Quintus quickly developed a self-imposed curfew: the city's streets, once buzzing with activity, went silent at dusk. By the end of the year, crime had fallen to near-zero as the people lived in fear of the "Night Haunter".
有一年,诺斯特拉莫昆图斯的小罪犯开始被残忍地肢解。随着漫长炎热的夏天的持续,这种模式很快蔓延到腐败的官僚和抗议者。昆图斯很快制定了一项自我实施的宵禁:这座城市的街道曾经热闹非凡,但在黄昏时分却变得寂静无声。到年底,由于人们生活在对“午夜幽魂”的恐惧中,犯罪率已降至接近零。
The Night Haunter became the city's first monarch. The few nobles who survived by swearing loyalty to him became his mouthpieces. He would rule with a fair and even hand, but any who transgressed would suffer, not at the hand of an appointed enforcer, but by that of the Night Haunter himself. The Night Haunter eventually claimed the other four cities of Nostramo, bringing increased productivity and fearful peace to the world.
午夜幽魂成为这座城市的第一位君主。少数靠宣誓效忠他而幸存下来的贵族成了他的喉舌。他以公正和公平的方式统治,任何违法者都会受到惩罚,不是被指定的执法者所惩罚,而是被午夜幽魂自己所惩罚。午夜幽魂最终占领了诺斯特拉莫的其他四个城市,为世界带来了更高的生产力和可怕的和平。
The Fall of Nostramo 诺斯特拉莫之陨
The Night Haunter warned his governors that his father's space fleet was coming for him. When the Delegation of Light arrived, the rain stopped as if in acknowledgement of its presence and the citizens wept at the sight of the Astartes: the primarchs Rogal Dorn, Lorgar, Ferrus Manus, and Fulgrim, representatives of their legions, and a group of Ultramarines. The Emperor of Mankind led the procession, the sight of him striking blind all who looked upon him.
午夜幽魂警告他的总督们,他父亲的太空舰队要来找他了。当光明的代表团到达时,雨停了下来,仿佛在承认它的存在,市民们一看到阿斯塔特就流泪了:原体罗格·多恩、珞珈、费鲁斯·马努斯和福格瑞姆,他们军团的代表,以及一群极限战士。人类帝皇率领队伍,他一眼就让所有看着他的人都失明了。
The Night Haunter collapsed in agony at the Emperor's first breath to him. When he recovered, the Night Haunter listened to the Emperor speak.
午夜幽魂在帝皇第一次呼吸时痛苦地倒下了。当他恢复时,午夜幽魂听到了帝皇的讲话。
"Be at peace, Konrad Curze. I have arrived and I intend to take you home."
“安心吧,康拉德·科兹。我已经到了,我打算带你回家。”
"That is not my name, father. My people gave me a name and I will bear it until my dying day. And I know full well what you intend for me."
“这不是我的名字,父亲。我的人民给了我一个名字,我会一直沿用到我死去的那一天。我完全知道你对我的意图。”
At first, the people felt they were free to speak their minds again, no longer subject to the gruesome punishments of the Night Haunter, but replacing his autocracy with the Administratum soon became a return to the old ways. Eventually Ashkar Skraivok, a relative of the Night Lords Captain Gendor Skraivok, launched a coup that massacred the Imperial Governor and his cabinet. Ashkar did not secede from the Imperium, but declared the old ways of Nostramo were to be restored. The bureaucratic corruption of the Administratum was bad enough, but the Emperor's arrival robbed the Nostramans of their ignorance. They now knew that there were better places in the galaxy than this one and they would never be able to see them. The only class of people who would ever get off-world were the new breed of violent criminals who were selected to fill the ranks of the Night Lords Space Marine Legion. The criminals were dispatched to the Legion as the old nobility of Nostramo, now gaining strength in Curze's absence, intended to keep the best fighters for their own interests.
起初,人们觉得他们可以再次自由地表达自己的想法,不再受到午夜幽魂的可怕惩罚,但用内务部取代他的独裁统治很快就变成了对旧路的回归。最终,午夜领主詹多·斯卡莱沃克连长的亲属阿什卡尔·斯卡莱沃克发动政变,屠杀了帝国总督及其内阁。阿什卡尔没有脱离帝国,但宣布恢复诺斯特拉莫的旧路。政府的官僚腐败已经够糟糕的了,但帝皇的到来剥夺了诺斯特拉莫的无知。他们现在知道银河系中有比这更好的地方,他们永远无法看到它们。唯一能离开这个世界的人是新一代的暴力罪犯,他们被选为午夜领主星际战士军团的成员。罪犯们作为诺斯特拉莫的旧贵族被派往军团,在科兹缺席的情况下,他们的力量正在增强,目的是为了自己的利益留住最好的战士。
The next time the Night Haunter returned to Nostramo would be the last. Word had reached the legion that Imperial governor Basileus's regime allowed crime to run rampant once again. The Night Haunter's entire fleet arrived in orbit and aimed their weapons at their home world. Countless lance barrages and orbital torpedoes pummeled the surface. The bombardment reached the planet's core, possibly through a weakness left in the crust by Curze's landing or the extensive adamantium mining, and the planet burst apart. There were widespread mutinties among the Nostraman-born Human crew of the Night Lords fleet during the bombardment, which were brutally put down by Sevatar and his Atramentar. Even a few Night Lords themselves rebelled, but were purged with all the rest.
午夜幽魂下次回到诺斯特拉莫将是最后一次。有消息传来,帝国总督巴赛勒斯的政权允许犯罪再次猖獗。午夜幽魂的整个舰队都进入了轨道,并将武器对准了他们的家园。无数的炮火和轨道鱼雷袭击了行星表面。轰击到达了行星的核心,可能是通过科兹着陆或大规模开采精金留下的地壳弱点,行星破碎了。轰炸期间,午夜领主舰队中的诺斯特拉莫裔人类船员中发生了广泛的哗变,这些哗变被赛维塔和他的黑甲卫残酷地镇压了下来。即使是少数午夜领主也反抗了,但与其他人一起被清除了。
As many names in the background of the Night Lords links to the writer Joseph Conrad, Nostramo is probably a reference to Nostromo, a supposedly incorruptible anti-hero who is killed when he succumbs to his thirst for power.
正如午夜领主背景中的许多名字都与作家约瑟夫·康拉德有关一样,诺斯特拉莫可能是指诺斯特罗莫,一个被认为是廉洁的反英雄,当他屈服于对权力的渴望时被杀。
The name is also used as the name for the ship in the science-fiction horror film Alien, slightly based upon another of Conrad's novels.
这个名字也被用作科幻恐怖电影 异形 中舰船的名字,这部电影稍微基于康拉德的另一部小说。
