The hall, revealed by another brief appearance of the moon, was two stories high. A ballustradcd balcony ran around the second floor. Curious to probe deeper into the mystery of this enigmatic structure which squatted here on the plain many leagues from any other stone building, Conan roamed the corridors, which wound as sinuously as a serpent's track. He poked into dusty chambers whose original purpose he could not even guess.
The castle was of staggering size (замок был потрясающего размера), even to one who had seen the temple of the spider-god at Yezud in Zamora and the palace of King Yildiz at Aghrapur in Turan (даже для того: «одного», кто видел храм бога-паука в Йезуде, в Заморе, и дворец короля Илдиза в Аграпуре, в Туране). A good part of it — one whole wing, in fact (большая часть его — одно целое крыло фактически) — had fallen into a featureless mass of tumbled black blocks (рухнуло бесформенной глыбой из обрушенных черных блоков), but the part that remained more or less intact was still the largest building that Conan had seen (но часть, которая оставалсь более-менее нетронутой, была еще самым большим зданием, которое Конан видел). Its antiquity was beyond guessing (его древность была за пределами догадок =

Its antiquity was beyond guessing. The black onyx of which it was wrought was unlike any stone that Conan had seen in this part of the world. It must have been brought across immense distances — why, Conan could not imagine.
Some features of the bizarre architecture of the structure reminded Conan of ancient tombs in accursed Zamora (некоторые черты причудливой архитектуры строения напоминали Конану древние могилы в проклятой Заморе;
