    En: First, she tries to put Gethin's mind at ease, then directs herself to the reception desk.

    En: It's easier said than done, she tells herself.

    Cy: Ond rhaid trio.
    En: But she must try.

    Cy: "Eich tad wedi ymateb yn dda i'r triniaeth.

    Cy: "Mae Dad yn iawn," meddai Eira'n ysgafn wrth y teulu.

    Cy: "Dw i mor relieved.
    En: "I'm so relieved."

    En: The sun rises again beyond the thick autumn clouds, with sunlight streaming through the large window.

    Cy: Mae'r ysbyty'n llawn addewid newydd, a bellach, mae eu calon hefyd.

    Cy: Mae'r teulu'n deall bod y gobaith yn rhywle yn y lleiaf o'r straeon drist.
    En: The family understands that hope is somewhere among even the saddest stories.

    Cy: Mae'n amser newid, ac mae'r dail sydd wedi disgyn dim ond yn ymlân arwydd o hynny.

    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Ar fynyddoedd mawreddog Eryri, roedd y golygfeydd yn llawn o liwiau'r hydref.
    En: On the majestic mountains of Eryri, the views were full of autumn colors.

    Cy: Daeth Gwyn, anturiaethwr profiadol, â Carys ar daith gerdded arbennig.
    En: Gwyn, an experienced adventurer, brought Carys on a special walking trip.

    Cy: Carys oedd ffrind plentyndod Gwyn, rhywun nad oedd mor gyfarwydd â’r gwynt ewin gofid o'r mynyddoedd.
    En: Carys was Gwyn's childhood friend, someone not as familiar with the biting wind from the mountains.

    Cy: Roedd y ddau yn crwydro yn y Parc Cenedlaethol, lle roedd y coed yn llawn dail arian ac yr oedd awel o hafiaith yn llenwi'r awyr gyda'r arogl braf.
    En: The two of them wandered in the National Park, where the trees were full of silver leaves and a summer breeze filled the air with a pleasant aroma.

    Cy: Roedd yr haul yn gyrraedd ei osgordd a dechreuodd gymylau sinistr casglu yn araf.
    En: The sun reached its zenith, and sinister clouds began to gather slowly.

    Cy: "Croeso i Eryri," meddai Gwyn yn hyderus iawn wrth gychwyn ar y llwybr.
    En: "Welcome to Eryri," said Gwyn very confidently as they started on the path.

    Cy: Roedd o’n gobeithio y byddai hwn yn ddiwrnod arbennig ar gyfer y ddau.
    En: He hoped this would be a special day for the two of them.

    Cy: Roedd yn awyddus i ddangos ei dalent i lywio drwy'r goedwig ac i gadw Carys yn ddiogel hyd yn oed os oedd hi'n troi’n wynt mawr ar yr uwchderau.
    En: He was eager to demonstrate his knack for navigating through the forest and to keep Carys safe, even if it turned into a strong wind at the heights.

    Cy: Roedd hefyd stori dan y lleni—ei gariad at Carys.
    En: There was also a story behind the scenes—his love for Carys.

    Cy: Wrth iddyn nhw symud yn ddyfnach i mewn i'r coed, waeth y gwynt yn codi'n aruthrol, gan chwythu'r dail i bob cyfeiriad.
    En: As they delved deeper into the woods, the wind rose tremendously, blowing the leaves in every direction.

    Cy: Yna, dechreuodd glaw trwm disgyn gan wneud y llwybrau’n sglyfaeth ac yn heriol.
    En: Then, heavy rain began to fall, making the paths slippery and challenging.

    Cy: Cyrhaeddodd y storm yn fwy sydyn nag oedd Gwyn wedi disgwyl.
    En: The storm arrived more suddenly than Gwyn had anticipated.

    Cy: "Mae'n amser mynd yn ôl, Carys," meddai Gwyn, ond sylweddolodd fod y llwybrau wedi diflannu o dan garped o ddail a mwd.
    En: "It's time to go back, Carys," said Gwyn, but he realized that the paths had disappeared under a carpet of leaves and mud.

    Cy: Pan ddaeth yr hirbellter yn fwyfwy dywyll, dechreuodd Gwyn feddwl am adael yn hebrwng.
    En: As the distance grew increasingly dark, Gwyn started to think about leading the way back.

    Cy: "Carys, rydym ni 'di colli ffordd," cydnabu Gwyn yn anfodlon, gan ddangos risg ei ddiffyg perffeithrwydd.
    En: "Carys, we've lost our way," Gwyn admitted reluctantly, showing the risk of his imperfection.

    Cy: Pan glywodd Carys hwn, trodd at Gwyn gyda llygaid llawn gofidus.
    En: When Carys heard this, she turned to Gwyn with eyes full of concern.

    Cy: "Ac yn awr?
    En: "And now?"

    Cy: " gofynnodd gyda llais cryn.
    En: she asked with a trembling voice.

    Cy: Roedd y gwynt hyd yn oed graddau yn fwynach na'r gyfrinach oedd wedi ei ddal Gwyn yn ôl.
    En: The wind was even gentler than the secret that had held Gwyn back.

    Cy: Canfu’r ddau loches mewn ogof fach rhwng craig, lle roeddynt yn gallu cysgu'n niwlog a chloi'r storm.
    En: The two found shelter in a small cave between rocks, where they could sleep dimly and wait out the storm.

    Cy: Yn y nos lliw wela, siaradaodd y ddau.
    En: In the dusky night, the two conversed.

    Cy: "Carys, wnes i ofni hono.
    En: "Carys, I feared that.

    Cy: Doeddwn i ddim eisiau i ti weld fi fel hyn.
    En: I didn't want you to see me like this."

    Cy: ""Mae bod yn onest yn fwy gwerthfawr, Gwyn.
    En: "Being honest is more valuable, Gwyn.

    Cy: Rydyn ni'n dal yma," meddai Carys a'r wyneb arno hi’dros y murlian glafoerog.
    En: We're still here," Carys said, her face over the damp walls.

    Cy: Trwy’u gafael ar ddigonolrwydd, pillodd y storm yn y bore a llinell haul yn torri trwy'r cymylau.
    En: Through their embrace of serenity, the storm subsided by morning and a line of sunlight broke through the clouds.

    Cy: Wrth iddyn nhw ailgyflwyno'r llwybr yn ofalus, gyda chlychau mefus yn cyhoeddi'r siap y cerddoriaeth yn yr haul, sylweddolodd Gwyn a Carys eu bod wedi dysgu cymaint.
    En: As they cautiously retraced their path, with strawberry bells announcing the shape of music in the sun, Gwyn and Carys realized they had learned so much.

    Cy: Cyrhaeddodd y ddau eu man cychwyn, gyda gratia a chariad newydd sbon drwodd allan o anialwch.
    En: The two reached their starting point, with gratitude and a newfound love emerging from the wilderness.

    Cy: Deallodd Gwyn bwysigrwydd bod gennyn lystyfiant a syniwredigaeth, tra bod Carys wedi darganfod ei dyfalbarhad a amaro cleddyfa'r natur.
    En: Gwyn understood the importance of having resilience and insight, while Carys discovered her perseverance and the love of nature's swordplay.

    Cy: Roedd y ddau wedi ennill mwy na what oedd o’n nhw'n disgwyl.
    En: The two had gained more than they expected.

    Cy: Roedd eu cyfeillgarwch yn ddwfn a Gwyn bellach yn gallu gweld pa mor dwfn a onest oedd ei deimladau, a roedd Carys yn gwerthfawrogi pa mor anadl oedd teithio gyda’r natur.
    En: Their friendship was deep, and Gwyn could now see how deep and honest his feelings were, while Carys appreciated how refreshing it was to travel with nature.

    Cy: Adar yn hedfan yn hur mawr tra’r wastraffedd helaeth o dir wych yn cilio’n dawel yn eu golwg, gwenodd y ddau, gyda gobaith a chanfyddiad hirhoedlog newydd.
    En: Birds flew high as the wide expanse of wonderful land quietly receded from view, and the two smiled, with hope and a newfound, long-lasting perception.

    Cy: Roedd awyr las gyda niwl yn gorlifo dros y copaon yn y Bannau Brycheiniog.
    En: The sky was blue with mist spilling over the peaks in the Bannau Brycheiniog.

    Cy: Roedd yr haid o goetir wedi ei gorchuddio â dail aur ac euraid, yn carpedu'r llawr fel bod y byd ei hun wedi ei bwytho â phalodau'r hydref.
    En: The grove of woodland was covered with golden and gilded leaves, carpeting the ground as if the world itself had been stitched with the fineries of autumn.

    Cy: Roedd Gareth yn cerdded ar hyd y llwybr cul, ei galon yn cystadlu gyda theimladau o bryder a dycnwch.
    En: Gareth walked along the narrow path, his heart contending with feelings of anxiety and determination.

    Cy: Ymhellach wedyn, roedd Elin a Llewelyn wedi aros i gefnogi Gareth.
    En: Further along, Elin and Llewelyn had stopped to support Gareth.

    Cy: “Bydd popeth yn iawn,” meddai Elin, yn trio ei dawelu.
    En: "Everything will be okay," said Elin, trying to calm him.

    Cy: Ond roedd Gareth yn gwybod fod amser yn dyngu ei derfyn.
    En: But Gareth knew that time was running out.

    Cy: Roedd ganddo dasg bwysfawr i gwrdd â hi – adfer oriawr poced arian, hen berl ei deulu.
    En: He had an important task to fulfill – to retrieve a silver pocket watch, an old family heirloom.

    Cy: Troes y llwybr yn glogwyn serth, a'r tir yn fwy garw ac anghysbell.
    En: The path turned into a steep cliff, and the terrain grew more rugged and remote.

    Cy: Roedd goleuni'r dydd yn dyddosoli, a niwl tew yn ymledu dros y topynnau.

    Cy: “Rhaid i mi barhau,” meddai'n lwydrwydd.
    En: "I must continue," he said resolutely.

    En: He unfolded an old, tattered map with the names of the mountains written in his handwriting showing the way.

    Cy: Gan ddilyn llwybr cwt gwynion, plymiodd Gareth ei hun i bol troes.
    En: Following a trail of white stones, Gareth plunged himself into a winding defile.

    Cy: Tro nesaf, roedd cerrig a blewyn dryllyd yn sefyll fel anghenfilod wrth ei draed.
    En: At the next turn, rocks and bristly hedges stood like monsters at his feet.

    Cy: Yna, o ddiarhebol yr eiliad, cododd y niwl a llawenodd amlinell y llewyrcaen arian.
    En: Then, in a proverbial moment, the mist lifted and the outline of the silver sanctuary gleamed brightly.

    Cy: "Yma yw hi!
    En: "Here it is!"

    Cy: " gwaeddodd gyda'i lais yn atseinio dros y llysnar.
    En: he shouted, his voice echoing over the ravine.

    Cy: Cysur a gof wasgodd ei ddeinosau pryder wrth iddo godi'r oriawr, goleuni'r pelydr olaf yn neidio oddi ar yr arian disglair.
    En: Comfort and memory squeezed away his anxious doubts as he picked up the watch, the last ray of light leaping off the shiny silver.

    Cy: Gyda'r nos yn cuddio'r byd o'i gwrlid du, stwffiodd Gareth yr oriawr yn ddiogel yn ei boced.
    En: With the night cloaking the world in its dark veil, Gareth tucked the watch safely in his pocket.

    Cy: Adlewyrchiad gwydn i'w hynafiaid.
    En: A steadfast reflection of his ancestors.

    En: He felt the weight of the watch warmly against his heart.

    Cy: Pan aeth yn ôl at Elin a Llewelyn, teimlai newid wedi digwydd.
    En: When he returned to Elin and Llewelyn, he sensed a change had occurred.

    Cy: Mewn oriau byr o'r diwrnod, roedd Gareth wedi ennill hyder newydd yn ei alluoedd, a hefyd gwerthfawrogiad mwy dwfn o dreftadaeth ei deulu.
    En: In the short hours of the day, Gareth had gained new confidence in his abilities, and also a deeper appreciation of his family's heritage.

    Cy: Wrth gerdded law yn llaw gyda'i ffrindiau tuag at ddinas y dydd newydd, roedd Gareth yn gwybod nad oedd o wedi colli dim – roedd o wedi canfod llawer mwy.
    En: As he walked hand in hand with his friends toward the city of the new day, Gareth knew he hadn’t lost anything – he had discovered so much more.

    Cy: Yn uwchben y coed breision, roedd y Brecon Beacons yn ymdoddi i niwl trwchus.
    En: Above the broad trees, the Brecon Beacons were melting into thick mist.

    Cy: Roedd yr hydref yn tynnu gorchudd euraidd dros y bryniau, gan chwythu dail coch a melyn drwy'r aer.
    En: Autumn was laying a golden cover over the hills, blowing red and yellow leaves through the air.

    Cy: Roedd gwynt oer yn brathu croen Gareth wrth iddo barhau ei archwiliad unig drwy'r cwm tawel.
    En: A cold wind was biting Gareth's skin as he continued his solitary exploration through the tranquil valley.

    Cy: Roedd ei feddwl yn lledu, chwilio sut i newid ei lwybr bywyd o fod yn athro eiddgar i rywbeth mwy allgarol.
    En: His mind wandered, searching for how to change his life's path from being an earnest teacher to something more expansive.

    Cy: Yn sydyn, dyma law yn dechrau disgyn o'r awyr, yn difetha unrhyw obaith o ddianc cyn i'r cawod ddod.
    En: Suddenly, rain began to fall from the sky, dashing any hope of escaping before the shower arrived.

    Cy: Rhedodd Gareth i loches dan goeden fawr.
    En: Gareth ran for shelter under a large tree.

    Cy: Yn y fan hon, yn union wrth ymyl y meini hynafol a elwir y "Deml Gud," gwelodd Elin eisoes yno.
    En: Here, right next to the ancient stones known as the "Deml Gud," he saw Elin already there.

    Cy: Roedd hi'n tynnu lluniau, dal harddwch y lleoliad gyda'i chamera.
    En: She was taking pictures, capturing the beauty of the location with her camera.

    Cy: "Bonjour!" meddyliodd Gareth, ond dywedodd yn gywir, "Helo, mae'n ddiwrnod perffaith i ddal y distawrwydd hyn?"
    En: "Bonjour!" thought Gareth, but he correctly said, "Hello, isn't it a perfect day to capture this tranquility?"

    Cy: Ehangodd Elin wên siriol tua Gareth, ei llygaid yn fflachio chwilfrydedd.
    En: Elin extended a cheerful smile towards Gareth, her eyes flashing curiosity.

    Cy: "Yn hollol!" atebodd Elin. "Rwy'n gweithio ar brosiect newydd. Cariad mawr gennyf tuag at fyd natur."
    En: "Absolutely!" Elin replied. "I'm working on a new project. I have a great love for the natural world."

    Cy: Roedd y ddau yn sgwrsio, ac roedd eu sgyrsiau yn rhithro heibio amser glywed iddynt gael cyd-gefnogwyr cyffredin; straeon am ffrindiau nad oeddent erioed wedi cwrdd â nhw ond a oedd yn gwybod amdanynt.
    En: The two of them chatted, and their conversations skipped by as they discovered common supporters; stories of friends they had never met but knew about each other.

    Cy: Gydag amser, aeth y glaw i'r ŵydr, troi’r cawod yn wrthymaith.
    En: With time, the rain turned to mere drops, turning the shower into a mere sprinkle.

    Cy: Ond heb gurrwth o taclu, penderfynodd Gareth ac Elin aros gyda’i gilydd.
    En: But without hesitation, Gareth and Elin decided to stay together.

    Cy: Roedd eu deialog yn aildanio naws hynod o gefnogaeth a chysur, aeth i'r afael â'u hantur penderfynol tu hwnt i'r disgwyl.
    En: Their dialogue reignited a remarkable sense of support and comfort, addressing their determined adventure beyond expectations.

    Cy: "Beth am ein hymgais nesaf?" gofynnodd Gareth. "Awn ni i ffwrdd?"
    En: "What about our next endeavor?" Gareth asked. "Shall we head off?"

    Cy: "Beth am fynd at ran arall o'r parc?" cynigiodd Elin, ei llygaid yn awr yn llawn syniadau newydd.
    En: "How about we go to another part of the park?" Elin suggested, her eyes now full of new ideas.

    Cy: Felly, gadawsant y gysgod dan y coed a dechrau'u taith bryniog.
    En: So, they left the shelter of the trees and began their hilly journey.

    Cy: Wrth iddynt gerdded a siarad, oedd y llwybr mewn rhai mannau yn anhysbys ac heriol, ond hynny yn anad dim yn tynhau eu cysylltiad.
    En: As they walked and talked, the path was at times unfamiliar and challenging, yet it primarily strengthened their bond.

    Cy: Pan gyrhaeddant y Deml Gud, safodd Gareth yn fud.
    En: When they reached the Deml Gud, Gareth stood silent.

    Cy: Roedd y lleoliad hynafol, a'i simbolaeth, yn adleisio eu perthynas gyfnodol.
    En: The ancient location, with its symbolism, echoed their budding relationship.

    Cy: O'u cwmpas, roedd yr awyrgylch yn llawn o bosibiliadau rhithwir.
    En: Around them, the atmosphere was filled with virtual possibilities.

    Cy: "Rwy'n meddwl ei fod yn bwysig gadael i ffurtiau newydd ni weithio," gorchmynnodd Elin yn ysgafn.
    En: "I think it's important to let new forms work for us," Elin gently suggested.

    Cy: Roedd ystyr ei geiriau yn amlwg, bore.
    En: The meaning of her words was clear, even early on.

    Cy: "Rydw i’n cytuno," atebodd Gareth, cofio ei eisiau am newid a’i chwant am antur.
    En: "I agree," Gareth replied, recalling his desire for change and his yearning for adventure.

    Cy: Gyda theimlad dwfn o ddealltwriaeth newydd, raliodd y ddau trwy'r deml, darganfod bod yma, yn dod i’r cefndir, roedd y glaw wedi i’r awyr ddisgleirio.
    En: With a deep feeling of newfound understanding, the two rallied through the temple, discovering that as they moved forward, the rain had caused the sky to brighten.

    Cy: Yn eu calonau, roeddent wedi dod yn groes i'w rhythm naturiol.
    En: In their hearts, they had crossed into their natural rhythm.

    Cy: Sgilioni newydd yn cynnal eu hangorfa – antur neu bosibilrwydd, maen nhw'n dewis symud ymlaen gyda'i gilydd, gadael ôl ar y Deml Gud gydag addewidion diofyn am yfory.
    En: New skills anchored them—adventure or possibility, they chose to move forward together, leaving a mark on the Deml Gud with default promises for tomorrow.

    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Heddiw, yr oedd yr aer yn glir a'r coed yn gorchuddio â lliwiau’r hydref yn Nghymru.
    En: Today, the air was clear, and the trees were covered in the colors of autumn in Cymru.

    Cy: Roedd Alys, Dafydd, a Rhian yn cyfarfod ar gychwyn eu taith ddringo drwy Barc Cenedlaethol Eryri.
    En: Alys, Dafydd, and Rhian were meeting at the start of their climbing trip through Parc Cenedlaethol Eryri.

    Cy: Roedd Alys yn llawn brwdfrydedd.
    En: Alys was full of enthusiasm.

    Cy: Roedd ei bywyd yn y ddinas yn brysur, ac roedd hi’n edrych ymlaen at ymlacio yng nghanol natur.
    En: Her life in the city was busy, and she was looking forward to relaxing in the midst of nature.

    Cy: Roedd Dafydd, fodd bynnag, yn fwy gofalus.
    En: Dafydd, however, was more cautious.

    Cy: Nid oedd yn hoff o uchderau ac roedd yn poeni am y tywydd anrhagweladwy.
    En: He wasn't fond of heights and worried about the unpredictable weather.

    Cy: “Mae cymylau duon uwchben,” meddai Dafydd, gan edrych lan gyda phryder.
    En: "There are dark clouds above," said Dafydd, looking up with concern.

    Cy: Roedd Rhian, fel arfer, yn dawel a chyfeillgar.
    En: Rhian, as usual, was calm and friendly.

    Cy: Roedd hi’n mwynhau helpu i gadw pethau’n eglur rhyngddynt.
    En: She enjoyed helping to keep things clear between them.

    Cy: “Gadewch i ni fynd yn araf, Dafydd.
    En: "Let's take it slow, Dafydd.

    Cy: Does dim rhaid i ni frysio,” meddai Rhian, gan geisio tawelu ei feddyliau.
    En: We don't have to rush," said Rhian, trying to calm his thoughts.

    Cy: Wrth iddynt ddringo, roedd y llwybrau'n troelli trwy'r bryniau garw.
    En: As they climbed, the paths twisted through the rugged hills.

    Cy: Y coed yn cwympo eu dail ar y llwybr, fel eira aur.
    En: The trees shed their leaves on the path, like golden snow.

    Cy: Roedd Alys yn symud ymlaen gyda’i llygaid disglair, ond roedd Dafydd yn edrych yn sgeptig bob yn ail gam.
    En: Alys moved forward with her bright eyes, but Dafydd looked skeptical every other step.

    Cy: Pan glywodd y sŵn mellten yn y pellter, roedd Alys yn gwybod ei bod hi am barhau.
    En: When they heard the sound of thunder in the distance, Alys knew she wanted to continue.

    Cy: “Mae'r sialens yn rhan o'r hwyl,” meddai wrth ei ffrindiau.
    En: "The challenge is part of the fun," she said to her friends.

    Cy: Ond roedd Dafydd yn oedi, ei ofnau yn rhwystr i’w eglura.
    En: But Dafydd hesitated, his fears a barrier to explain.

    Cy: Rhian sylweddolodd bod angen cefnogaeth ar Dafydd er mwyn parhau.
    En: Rhian realized that Dafydd needed support to continue.

    Cy: Gafaelodd yn ei law, gan edrych arno gyda digon o hyder.
    En: She took his hand, looking at him with plenty of confidence.

    Cy: “Rydym ni i gyd yma gyda'n gilydd.
    En: "We are all here together.

    Cy: Bydd popeth yn iawn.
    En: Everything will be alright."

    Cy: ”Cerddasant ymlaen, gan ddal at ei gilydd hyd nes iddynt gyrraedd brig mynydd yr oedd son amdano.
    En: They walked on, holding onto each other until they reached the top of the mountain they had heard about.

    Cy: Roedd y cymylau’n llawn bygythiad, a'r gwynt yn cyflymu.
    En: The clouds were full of threat, and the wind was picking up.

    Cy: Safai Dafydd wrth droed y dringfa olaf, gan deimlo’r llymaid yn ei stumog.
    En: Dafydd stood at the foot of the final climb, feeling the flutter in his stomach.

    Cy: Alys gwthiodd ei fraich yn ôl, gan gynnig cefnogaeth.
    En: Alys pushed her arm back, offering support.

    Cy: “Yr ydym ni i gyd yn gryfach gyda’n gilydd.
    En: "We are all stronger together.

    Cy: Gallwch wneud hyn.
    En: You can do this."

    Cy: ”Gyda chalon drom, cychwynodd Dafydd gyda phob synnwyr o benderfyniad.
    En: With a heavy heart but every sense of determination, Dafydd started with resolve.

    Cy: Wrth iddo gyrraedd y copa gyda Alys a Rhian drws nesaf, datgelir golygfa hyfryd o dosturi naturiol.
    En: As he reached the summit with Alys and Rhian by his side, a beautiful view of natural compassion was unveiled.

    Cy: Roedd cynhesrwydd rhwng y tri ohonynt, fel pelydr yr haul trwy'r cymylau mawr.
    En: There was warmth between the three of them, like the sunbeam through the great clouds.

    Cy: Wrth iddynt ddechrau'r llwybr i lawr yn ddiogel, roedd Alys yn gwenu, gan ddeall bod y cyfeillgarwch yn werth y byd.
    En: As they began the path down safely, Alys smiled, understanding that friendship was worth the world.

    Cy: Dysgodd gwerth amynedd a thîm, tra roedd Dafydd yn mwynhau teimlad o gyflawniad.
    En: She learned the value of patience and teamwork, while Dafydd enjoyed a sense of achievement.

    Cy: Roedd Rhian yn hapus wrth iddi weld ei ffrindiau yn aberthu eu hatgyweiriad.
    En: Rhian was happy to see her friends cherishing their restoration.

    Cy: Yn eu ffordd eu hunain, roeddent i gyd wedi newid.
    En: In their own way, they had all changed.

    Cy: Mynd adref, roedd eu calonnau yn ysgafnach, yn barod ar gyfer heriau newydd y gaeaf o flaen.
    En: Going home, their hearts were lighter, ready for the new challenges of the coming winter.
