我的儿子(My son)
当你出生的时候(the day you were born)
洛丹伦的森林轻声唤出了你的名字(the very forests of Lordaeron whispered the name)" Arthas"
孩子,我骄傲地看着你一天天长大,成为正义的化身(My child, I watched with pride as you grew into a weapon of righteousness)
你要记住,我们一直都是以智慧与力量统治这个国家(Remember - our line has always ruled with wisdom and strength)
我也相信你会谨慎地使用自己强大的力量(And I know you will show restraint when exercising your great power)
但,真正的胜利,孩子——是鼓舞你的子民心中的斗志(But, the truest victory, my son – is stirring the hearts of your people)
我告诉你这些,总有一天,我的生命将抵达终点,而你,将加冕为王(I tell you this, for when my days have come to an end – you, shall be King)
这些台词在开场动画中由一位父亲对儿子阿尔萨斯讲述,表达了他对儿子的期望和对未来的预言。
