starlady | TRC 232 translation (Reply)

Wow, it's finally the end.

I have some people to thank--namely,

nokiirat, for getting me onto LJ and into Clamp fandom--and everyone who's read my translations and commented. I always feel awkward about being thanked, but really, thank you.

Chapitre 232: The World of Beginnings

FX: Crunch

FWR: Pay
The price

FX: Snaking movement

Shaoran: Fei Wong...!

Watanuki: Is he saying that if we don't hand over the price we won't get out of here?
---------------------
!!! page 05
Shaoran: If it's something I can hand over...!

Watanuki: The price can't give too much or snatch away too much.

If you hand over more than necessary,
You'll be injured.

Your body in the real world,
Your luck in the astral plane,

Your soul in the heavens.

Watanuki: If Yuuko-san were here, she might be able to tell us an appropriate price.

But...
She's not here now.

You can't yourself understand about yourself.
But since we're the same but not the same,

We might be able to understand.
Will the mutual prices correspond even though we leave here?

Shaoran: Fei Wong's last curse.

Watanuki: Without something precious, it won't be a payment.
---------------------
!!! page 07
Shaoran: But if you really throw away something precious,
It's meaningless.

Both: The payment.
---------------------
!!! page 08
Shaoran: Even if I leave here, I understand that it won't be nothing.
There are people who will be hurt and saddened by what I've decided.
Even so, I choose this price.

Watanuki: I don't think this is the correct price either.
Nevertheless, since I've chosen to wait,
I choose this price.
