The strong-willed son of Jeremitt and Caterine Towani, Mace is elder brother to young Cindel. The Towani family crash-landed on the forest moon of Endor. Marooned in the forest, Jeremitt and Caterine instructed their children to stay with the ship, but 14-year old Mace, prone to ignoring parental instructions, wandered into the woods with his little sister anyhow.
梅斯·托瓦尼是个意志坚强的男孩，他是杰里米特·托瓦尼和卡塔琳·托瓦尼的儿子，辛德尔的哥哥。托瓦尼一家的飞船在恩多森林卫星迫降。被困在森林里的杰里米特和卡塔琳让孩子们待在飞船上，但14岁的梅斯总喜欢违背父母的要求，他带着妹妹漫无目的地走进了树林。

When his parents returned, they were terrified that their children were in danger. Looking for Mace and Cindel, Jeremitt and Catarine's cries attracted the attention of the evil Gorax, a foul-tempered giant native to Endor. The Gorax captured Jeremitt and Caterine, taking the helpless humans to his mountain lair.
父母回来后发现孩子们不见了，担心他们遇到了危险。杰里米特和卡塔琳呼喊着寻找梅斯和辛德尔，结果引起邪恶的哥拉克斯巨人的注意。哥拉克斯人是一种性情残暴的恩多土著人。哥拉克斯巨人抓走杰里米特和卡塔琳，把这两个无助的人类关进自己的山洞。

When Mace realized his parents were gone, he was overcome with regret. He quietly vowed to become a better son, and he lamented all those times he had disobeyed his parents. He realized he needed to be strong to protect his sister, Cindel, who was succumbing to a fever on this strange forest moon.
发现父母失踪后，梅斯无比悔恨。他暗下决心，要作个好孩子，他后悔以前没有听从父母的话。此时，辛德尔在这个奇异的森林卫星上发起高烧，梅斯意识到自己必须坚强起来，保护妹妹。

A scouting group of three Ewoks discovered the Towani space cruiser in the forest, and investigated. They found the sickly Cindel and the belligerent Mace, who tried to scare the Ewoks off with his nearly drained ray gun. The Ewoks overpowered Mace and tied him up to take him back to their village. There, the Ewok Deej and his wife Shodu administered to the sick little girl, giving her natural medicines to help combat her fever.
由三名伊沃克人组成的侦察队在森林里发现了托瓦尼家的太空游船。他们细细查看了一番，发现了生病的辛德尔和好斗的梅斯。梅斯试图用能量殆尽的射线枪吓跑伊沃克人。伊沃克人一拥而上，把梅斯绑起来，抬回了村子。在村子里，伊沃克人迪奇和妻子肖杜给生病的小女孩服藥，用天然草藥帮助她退烧。

By the next day, Cindel was much better. Mace was grateful for the Ewoks' help, though he doubted their abilities and their intelligence. He was determined to find his parents, so he snuck off in the night with his sister. They were attacked by a borra, a deadly boar-wolf. The Ewoks again rescued the children, killed the borra and discovered that it wore a leather pouch. This meant the borra was domesticated -- clearly belonging to the Gorax -- and inside the pouch were the life monitors worn by Jeremitt and Catarine Towani.
第二天，辛德尔就好多了。梅斯很感激伊沃克人的帮助，但他还是觉得他们笨手笨脚，看起来傻乎乎的。他决心找到父母，于是和妹妹在夜里偷偷溜走了。他们在路上遭到一头博拉——一种致命的猪狼——的袭击。伊沃克人赶来杀死博拉，再次救下了这两个孩子。他们发现这只博拉戴着一只皮口袋。这说明它是被驯化的——显然属于哥拉克斯人——而皮口袋里装着杰里米特和卡塔琳戴的生命监测器。

Realizing that the parents were held captive in the Gorax's lair, the Ewoks gathered together a caravan of adventurers to trek to the distant mountains and rescue the elder Towanis. The Ewok shaman Logray equipped each adventurer with a special gift to aide them on their quest. All Mace received with a smooth stone. Disgusted with such a lackluster prize, he promptly discarded it before trudging on. Besides, he carried his blaster and had a vibro-throwing axe at the ready, so he thought he was already well-prepared.
伊沃克人意识到孩子们的父母就被关在哥拉克斯巨人的洞穴里，遂召集一队历险者，组成一支马队前往远方山区营救托瓦尼夫妇。伊沃克巫师洛格雷赐给每个历险者一件特别的礼物，以助其完成使命。梅斯只得到一块光滑的石头。他觉得这件礼物根本毫无用处，就在出发前随手把它丢掉了。另外，他把爆能枪和震动投斧带在身边，认为这样就准备充分了。

Wicket W. Warrick, who had befriended Cindel, saw Mace throw the rock away, and figured he had best take it. Just in case.
威基特·W·沃里克是辛德尔新交的朋友，他看见梅斯把石头扔掉了，觉得他最好还是带上。以防万一。

The caravan trekked through the Endor countryside. Mace's impulsiveness almost was his undoing, as he fell victim to a tree-dwelling tempter who lured his attention to a knothole in a tree. By using the camouflaged end of its tongue to pretend to be a smaller, cuter creature, the tempter caused Mace to reach into the knothole, where it proceeded to snag his arm. The Ewoks freed Mace from the tempter's grip, and also saved him when Mace was trapped in a mystical lake, caught underwater by a strange force field. It was incidents such as these that caused Mace to respect his Ewok allies.
马队穿过恩多的乡间。个性冲动的梅斯好几次差点送命。一只树栖的诱惑蜥想把他骗进一个树洞。诱惑蜥的舌尖会伪装，看起来像一个小巧可爱的生物，它把梅斯诱到洞边，在梅斯伸手进去时猛地咬住他的手臂。伊沃克人从诱惑蜥嘴里救出梅斯。后来，在梅斯被一个奇怪的水下力场抓住，无法游出一个神秘湖时，伊沃克人又救了他。正是这些事件使梅斯开始尊重他的伊沃克同伴了。

When the caravan arrived at the mountain fortress of the Gorax, they could not find a way inside. The key, quite literally, lay inside the rock that Mace had thrown away. Thankfully, Wicket still had it. Cracking the rock open revealed an arrowhead loadstone, which magnetically drew itself to the opening in the rock wall.
马队抵达哥拉克斯人的山堡，但怎么也找不到进去的路。原来，秘诀就藏在梅斯丢掉的那块石头里。幸亏威基特还带着它。石头被砸开后，里面出现一块箭头形的磁石。磁石被吸引到了石墙的入口处。

Once inside the fortress, the Ewoks were able to defeat the Gorax, but it was not easy. One of their members, the lumberjack Chukha-Trok, whom Mace had grown to admire, was killed. Mace avenged his death by delivering the killing blow on the Gorax; he threw his vibro-axe into the back of the creature's neck, causing it to drop into an unfathomable chasm.
进入山堡后，伊沃克人成功打败哥拉克斯巨人，但付出了巨大的代价。他们中的一员——梅斯刚开始仰慕的伐木工丘卡-特罗克——牺牲了。梅斯投出振动斧，砍在哥拉克斯巨人的后颈，导致巨人坠下万丈深渊；梅斯给哥拉克斯巨人致命的一击，为死去的丘卡-特罗克报了仇。

Mace and Cindel were reunited with their parents, but their joy was short-lived. After a few months spent repairing the star cruiser, the Towanis were ready to leave. It was then that the vicious Marauders attacked, looking for the power crystal that fueled the star cruiser. The brutish aliens killed all the Towanis, except for Cindel who barely escaped.
梅斯和辛德尔终于和父母团聚了，但他们的快乐是短暂的。在花了几个月时间修理完星际游船后，托瓦尼一家终于准备离开了。正在这时，凶残的劫掠者来袭，想夺取为星际游船提供动力的动力水晶。这些野蛮的异族人杀死了托瓦尼全家，只有辛德尔死里逃生。
