《奥利凡德魔杖店》青松枝

14、Cypress柏木

　　【柏木】
　　柏木魔杖与高尚的品格密不可分。我的祖先，中世纪伟大的魔杖工匠杰伦特·奥利凡德写道，他为柏木魔杖找到主人的时候总是十分荣幸，因为他知道面前的这个巫师将会如英雄般死去。幸运的是，在相对和平的年代，柏木魔杖的持有者们很少需要为正义献出生命，不过毫无疑问，如果需要的话他们中的大多数愿意这么做。柏木制魔杖的灵魂伴侣们勇猛果断，舍己为人；这类魔杖的持有者不惧怕面对自己与他人人性的黑暗面。

　　【Cypress】
　　Cypress wands are associated with nobility. The great medieval wandmaker, Geraint Ollivander, wrote that he was always honoured to match a cypress wand, for he knew he was meeting a witch or wizard who would die a heroic death. Fortunately, in these less blood-thirsty times, the possessors of cypress wands are rarely called upon to lay down their lives, though doubtless many of them would do so if required. Wands of cypress find their soul mates among the brave, the bold and the self-sacrificing: those who are unafraid to confront the shadows in their own and others’ natures.
