第一章：失去与誓言 Chapter One: Loss and Oath 很久以前，在苏格兰的群山之间，住着一个名叫威廉·华莱士的男孩。
Long ago, among the hills of Scotland, lived a boy named William Wallace. 那是一个战乱不断的年代。
It was a time of constant war. 英格兰的国王试图统治苏格兰。
The King of England tried to rule Scotland. 村庄被烧毁，人民生活在恐惧中。
Villages were burned, and people lived in fear. 威廉的父亲和兄长加入了反抗的战斗。
William’s father and brother joined the fight against oppression. 一天，他们再也没有回来。
One day, they never returned. 威廉站在父亲的坟前，第一次感受到失去的痛苦。
Standing by his father’s grave, William felt loss for the first time. 他的叔父带走了他，离开了这片土地。
His uncle took him away from the land. 在远方，威廉学会了读书、思考和忍耐。
Far away, William learned to read, think, and endure. 叔父告诉他：“智慧比剑更重要。”
His uncle told him, “Wisdom is stronger than the sword.” 多年过去，战争似乎离他远去了。
Many years passed, and war seemed far away. 威廉长大了，成了一个沉默而坚定的年轻人。
William grew into a quiet and determined young man. 他渴望的不是战斗，而是平静的生活。
He did not long for battle, but for peace. 终于，他回到了故乡。
At last, he returned home. 村庄依旧，山风依旧。
The village remained, and so did the mountain winds. 威廉希望在这里重新开始。
William hoped to begin anew here. 他发誓，要远离战争。
He swore to stay away from war. 但命运，已经为他准备了另一条路。
But fate had prepared another path for him. 在这片土地上，自由仍然被夺走。
On this land, freedom was still taken away. 而威廉·华莱士的故事，才刚刚开始。
And the story of William Wallace had only just begun. |
