Story Transcript:
Cy: Ar awel loewydd yr hydref, yng nghanol coedwig frown arophwll Castell Coch, tri ffrind annisgwyl yn dechrau antur arbennig.
En: On the fresh autumn breeze, in the midst of the brown trees near the Arophwll Castell Coch, three unlikely friends begin a special adventure.
Cy: Roedd yna Gareth, sy'n teimlo atgasedd at ganrifoedd o hanes, gyda golwg penodol at gelfyddyd Gothig.
En: There was Gareth, who held an aversion to centuries of history, with a particular interest in Gothic art.
Cy: Wrth ei ochr roedd Efa, hanesydd celf ddadleuol sydd wedi clywed llawer o chwedlau, ond yn aml yn amheus ynghylch eu gwirionedd.
En: Beside him was Efa, a controversial art historian who had heard many legends, but often doubted their truth.
Cy: Rhys, y tywysydd castell, oedd fel cyfeillion cartref iddynt yno; roedd yn byw am ddydd pan fyddai'n dod o hyd i arteffact hanesyddol.
En: Rhys, the castle guide, was like a hometown friend to them there; he lived for the day he would find a historical artifact.
Cy: “Mae’n amser gwneud rhywbeth eithriadol,” meddai Gareth, gyda'i gyffro yn codi uwch ei lais, "Mae sôn am furlun anghyffredin."
En: “It’s time to do something extraordinary,” said Gareth, his excitement rising above his voice, “There is talk of an unusual mural.”
Cy: "Mae'n anodd credu chwedl," atebodd Efa, yn ymestyn ei breichiau i’r tŵr. “Ond mae’n werth archwilio.”
En: "It's hard to believe a legend," responded Efa, stretching her arms toward the tower. “But it’s worth exploring.”
Cy: Ysgerbwd y castell oedd yn ymddangos o lygad Rhys fel lle sy’n cuddio dirgelion.
En: The castle's skeleton appeared to Rhys as a place hiding secrets.
Cy: Roedd wedi breuddwydio cyfnewid ei stiwardiaeth y dyddiadur am enw yn llyfrau hanes.
En: He had dreamed of exchanging his diary of stewardship for a name in the history books.
Cy: O dan fflachlampau’r nos, croeswyd y troserem diafol i’r cynteddau cuddiedig.
En: Under the night’s flashlights, they crossed the devil’s staircase to the hidden hallways.
Cy: Defnyddiodd Rhys ei allweddi arbennig i agor drws sigraff nad oedd fyth agor i'r cyhoedd.
En: Rhys used his special keys to open a secret door that was never open to the public.
Cy: Roedd Efa, yn dechrau teimlo'r tensiwn rhyfeddol, yn edrych o gwmpas gyda chwilfrydedd.
En: Efa, beginning to feel the remarkable tension, looked around with curiosity.
Cy: Mae Gareth yn cyfeirio at y weledigaeth, "Dros y cornel yno," dywedodd wrth Rhys, nodio gyda hyder yng nghyfarwyddiadau hen lawysgrif Gymraeg a ddarllennodd amron ddegawd o'r blaen.
En: Gareth directed them to the vision, “Around that corner,” he told Rhys, nodding with confidence at the directions from an old Welsh manuscript he read almost a decade ago.
Cy: O flaen eu llygaid, y lle dirgel wedi'i selio am gannoedd o flynyddoedd.
En: Before their eyes, the secret place had been sealed for hundreds of years.
Cy: Agorodd Efa y flashlight a’i lleoliad yn y wal.
En: Efa opened the flashlight and its beam illuminated the wall.
Cy: Yno, ysgafn cafn yn dangos darlun gwyro o chwedl Gymreig.
En: There, a faint basin revealed a leaning depiction of a Welsh legend.
Cy: Traeth roedd yn dangos cyfrinhau'r Ddraig a'r Gwalch.
En: It showed the enchantment of the Dragon and the Hawk.
Cy: Golygfa anhygoel.
En: An incredible sight.
Cy: “Bendigedig!” gwichiodd Rhys gan guro’r wal yn ysgafn gydag edmygedd.
En: “Wonderful!” squealed Rhys, gently tapping the wall with admiration.
Cy: Mae Efa yn archwilio'r celfyddyd gyda mwy o barch nag y teimlai erioed o'r blaen.
En: Efa examined the artwork with more reverence than she had ever felt before.
Cy: Wedi'i ddogfennu a’i gadarnhau, roedd y darganfyddiad yn newid ffordd gweld pobl tuag at yr hen gastell.
En: Documented and confirmed, the discovery changed the way people viewed the old castle.
Cy: Mae Efa yn ychwanegu gwybodaeth bwysig at ei hymchwil.
En: Efa added important information to her research.
Cy: Gareth llwyddo i fynd gyda’r hanesyddion parchus.
En: Gareth succeeded in aligning with the respected historians.
Cy: Trwy gyflawni ei freuddwydion, roedd Gareth nid yn unig wedi cael ei barch fel penicwm hanesiaeth, ond hefyd roedd Efa wedi darganfod parch i chwedlau, ac roedd Rhys bellach yn cael ei ystyried yn arweinydd gwych.
En: By fulfilling their dreams, Gareth not only earned respect as a pinnacle of history, but also Efa discovered a respect for legends, and Rhys was now considered a great leader.
Cy: Cysegrwyd Castell Coch fel unwaith fwyaf arwyddocaol gyda diwrnod newydd o wybodaeth.
En: Castell Coch was consecrated once again as a place of significance with a new day of knowledge.
Cy: Roedd y tri yn sefyll ar y wal, yn edrych dros y choedwig yn llawn lliwiau hydrefol, yn gorlan gyda chyflawniadau.
En: The three stood on the wall, looking over the forest full of autumnal colors, aglow with accomplishments.

Story Transcript:
Cy: Castell Coch oedd y lle perffaith ar gyfer ymweliad gan Aeron a Carys.
En: Castell Coch was the perfect place for a visit by Aeron and Carys.
Cy: Roedd y draig goch, symudol fel yr hydref ei hun, wedi golchi'r bryniau mewn lliwiau o felyn, oren a choch, yn osgoi'r coedlog wrth sŵn prysur y dail dan draed.
En: The red dragon, as lively as autumn itself, had washed the hills in hues of yellow, orange, and red, evading the woodland to the busy sound of leaves underfoot.
Cy: Roedd y castell yn llawn hanes, yn dwyn i feddwl chwedlau'r Tylwyth Teg.
En: The castle was full of history, reminiscent of the tales of the Tylwyth Teg.
Cy: Roedd Aeron wedi cadw ei deimladau ynghylch yr etifeddiaeth yn gudd am amser maith.
En: Aeron had kept his feelings about the inheritance hidden for a long time.
Cy: 'Roedd gafael ar yr heirloom teuluol, dwsin braf deg y cant o'i deulu cyfan. Roedd arno eisiau dod a'r eitem werthfawr i'w gartref er mwyn codi ei hyder ei hun — i brofi ei fod yn werth yr un faint â'i frodyr a'i chwiorydd llwyddiannus.
En: Holding onto the family heirloom—an impressive dozen worth ten percent of his entire family—he wanted to bring the valuable item to his home to boost his own confidence, to prove he was worth the same as his successful brothers and sisters.
Cy: Ond, roedd Carys, ei chwaer, yn ddynes o gyfrifoldebau teuluol.
En: But Carys, his sister, was a woman of family responsibilities.
Cy: Roedd hi bob amser wedi cymeradwyo'r traddodiad, lle roedd yr etifeddiaeth yn cael ei rhannu rhwng y plant hynaf.
En: She had always endorsed the tradition, where the inheritance was divided among the eldest children.
Cy: Roedd hi'n parchu'r heirloom, nid dim ond am ei werth materol, ond am y symbolaeth roedd yn ei gario fel pont rhwng cenedlaethau.
En: She respected the heirloom, not just for its material value, but for the symbolism it carried as a bridge between generations.
Cy: "Roedd rhaid i ni siarad, Carys," meddai Aeron, ei lais yn drwch o benderfyniad, tra oedden nhw'n sefyll o flaen muriau'r castell.
En: "We need to talk, Carys," said Aeron, his voice thick with determination, as they stood before the castle walls.
Cy: "Mae'r heirloom mor bwysig i mi. Byddai'n symbol o fy llwyddiant a fy ngwaith caled."
En: "The heirloom is so important to me. It would be a symbol of my success and hard work."
Cy: Cododd Carys ei dwylo, tawel ond cadarn.
En: Carys raised her hands, calm but firm.
Cy: "Aeron, dwi'n deall pa mor bwysig yw hyn i ti. Ond mae'r traddodiad hwn yn goleuni'r teulu. Sut allwn ni ei dorri?"
En: "Aeron, I understand how important this is to you. But this tradition is the light of the family. How can we break it?"
Cy: Roedd y ddadl yn parhau, yn codi i lefelau uchel, gan atseinio trwy'r neuaddau carreg fel rhuo gwynt trwy newydd y coed.
En: The argument continued, rising to high levels, echoing through the stone halls like the roar of wind through new leaves.
Cy: Yn eu calonnau, roedd y ddau yn gwybod pa mor ddwys oedd y drafodaeth hon ac yn dymuno dod o hyd i dir canol.
En: In their hearts, both knew how deep this discussion was and wished to find common ground.
Cy: Yn y diwedd, daeth Carys at Aeron ar draws y cilfan yn y castell.
En: In the end, Carys approached Aeron across the alcove in the castle.
Cy: Gafaelodd yn y ffenestr ganddi'r golwg o'r coetir derw oddi tanynt.
En: She grasped the window with a view of the oak woods beneath them.
Cy: "A beth os, fe wnawn ni wneud y ddau?" cynigiodd.
En: "And what if, we do both?" she proposed.
Cy: "Gallwn rannu’r etifeddiaeth. Fe all weini fel peth o'n hanes, ond hefyd fel ffordd i ganolbwyntio ar dy lwyddiannau di."
En: "We can share the inheritance. It can serve as part of our history, but also as a way to focus on your achievements."
Cy: Ar ôl peth anesmadogedd, cytunodd Aeron i'r trefniant.
En: After some unease, Aeron agreed to the arrangement.
Cy: Addefodd pa mor bwysig oedd cefnogaeth ei deulu, mwy na feddiannu'r etifeddiaeth ei hun.
En: He admitted how important his family's support was, more than possessing the inheritance itself.
Cy: Oeddd Carys wedi adnewyddu dealltwriaeth o ing ei brawd.
En: Carys had renewed her understanding of her brother's distress.
Cy: Wrth adael Castell Coch, roedd yr haul yn glaso wedi codi dros gopaon y coed, gan gario gyda chi bellach deimlad o heddwch a dealltwriaeth rhwng y ddau deulu.
En: As they left Castell Coch, the rising sun over the treetops now carried a feeling of peace and understanding between the two families.
Cy: Roedd y goeden fardd'n gwyro ei changhennau adref, am y tro cyntaf am amser maith, gydag aer arferol llonydd ac awel uchel ymwybodol o'u colledion a'u hen ennill.
En: The bardic tree bowed its branches homeward, for the first time in a long while, with the usual still air and a high breeze conscious of their losses and old gains.

Cy: Ond mae rhywbeth yn ei theimladau a'i chalon yn anniddorol, yn gymylu ei golwg ar yr harddwch o'i chwmpas.
En: But there's something unsettling in her feelings and heart, clouding her view of the beauty around her.
Cy: "Dw i'n methu stopio meddwl am fy mywyd," meddai Rhiannon yn sibrwd wrth Dafydd, tra'n cydbwyso ar wydnion.
En: "I can't stop thinking about my life," Rhiannon whispers to Dafydd, while balancing on a ridge.
Cy: "Dw i angen penderfynu rhywbeth mawr, ond mae'n anodd gwneud hynny.

En: "This journey is a good opportunity to think and see with your heart open."
Cy: "Mae'r awel oer yn codi ac yn chwythu'r dail i gyd-flethu a dawnsio o amgylch.
En: The cold breeze rises and blows the leaves to swirl and dance around.

En: The landscape becomes clearer with each passing moment as they move forward, crossing a small bridge over a moving stream.
Cy: "Paid â phoeni ormod," meddai Dafydd yn dirion.
En: "Don't worry too much," Dafydd says gently.
Cy: "Wyddost ti, weithiau bydd angen i ni ollwng gafael a gadael i'r profiad ein harwain ble mae angen mynd.
En: "You know, sometimes we need to let go and allow the experience to guide us where we need to go."
Cy: "Er bod Rhiannon yn teimlo pryder, mae geiriau cysur Dafydd yn ei chyffwrdd.
En: Even though Rhiannon feels anxious, Dafydd's comforting words touch her.
Cy: Wrth iddo noddi ei hyder, mae'n dechrau teimlo rhywbeth yn newid y tu mewn iddi.
En: As he boosts her confidence, she begins to feel something changing inside her.
Cy: Mae'r daith am Orweddfa Dwyryd yn codi'n serth, ac mae mor bell i'r copa.
En: The journey to Orweddfa Dwyryd rises steeply, and it's so far to the summit.
Cy: Wrth iddynt gyrraedd yr olygfa, mae golygfa eang a godidog yn ei hwynebu.

En: Rhiannon takes a deep breath, feeling herself more solid.

En: "Being able to open my heart and accept help brings many disappointments but also many opportunities," she says to Dafydd, appreciating what these times on the mountains bring.
Cy: Mae Rhiannon yn deall na fydd pob penderfyniad yn hawdd, ond mae'n gweld nad yw'n unig ym mhob cam.
En: Rhiannon understands that not every decision will be easy, but she sees that she is not alone every step of the way.
Cy: Mae hefyd yn gwybod, gyda chefnogaeth, y bydd hi'n cael, mae cefnogaeth gwyrddlas y bryniau yn gorofengysgu ar gefndir.
En: She also knows that with support, she will have the greenish-blue hills as a comforting backdrop.

En: She is grateful to Dafydd for his companionship and guidance and decides to be ready to embrace change.
Cy: Efallai nad yw'r daith hon ar ben, ond mae Rhiannon yn teimlo'n hyderus ac yn barod i ddechrau ar ei ffordd newydd.
En: This journey may not be over, but Rhiannon feels confident and ready to start on her new path.
Cy: Mae taflenni dail yn lledaeniad dan droed, sy'n atgoffa iddi bod newidiadau bob amser yn digwydd, boed mewn natur neu fywyd.

Cy: Roedd rhywbeth am y lle yn teimlo'n hudolus.
En: There was something about the place that felt magical.
Cy: “Gwenyth, edrych!
En: "Look, Gwenyth!"
Cy: ” meddai Emrys, ond Gwenyth oedd eisoes yn bell ar y llwybr gyda gweddill y grŵp.
En: said Emrys, but Gwenyth was already far along the path with the rest of the group.
Cy: Roedd hi'n ddi-amynedd.
En: She was impatient.
Cy: Heb feddwl dwywaith, penderfynodd Emrys aros ar ôl.
En: Without a second thought, Emrys decided to stay behind.
Cy: Roedd ei galon yn curo wrth iddo fynd i mewn i'r ogof.
En: His heart was pounding as he entered the cave.
Cy: Yn ddistaw, cerddodd yn ddwfn i'r twll tywyll a chlywodd boncyffion y gorffennol.
En: Silently, he walked deep into the dark hollow and heard echoes of the past.
Cy: Disgleiriodd goleuadau anweledig o gwmpas y muriau, yn cynnwys delweddau cyfareddol - hen eiriau mytholegol meddal yn canu drwy'r awyr.
En: Invisible lights glowed around the walls, containing enchanting images - soft mythological words singing through the air.
Cy: Yn y funud honno, sylweddolodd Emrys fod wedi darganfod cornel o fyd a oedd unwaith yn llawn o hud.
En: In that moment, Emrys realized that he had discovered a corner of a world once full of magic.
Cy: Wrth id e sefyll yno, teimlodd fel pe bai'n perthyn i'r straeon hyn, fel un cyd-faint dalennog yn llyfr mawr y bydysawd.
En: As he stood there, he felt as if he belonged to these stories, like a fellow leaf in the great book of the universe.
Cy: Pan ddychwelodd Emrys at Dafydd a'r grŵp, roedd Gwenyth yn edrych yn chwilfrydig.
En: When Emrys returned to Dafydd and the group, Gwenyth looked curious.
Cy: “Be welaist ti?
En: "What did you see?"
Cy: ” gofynnodd.
En: she asked.
Cy: Emrys, llawn hyder newydd, dechreuodd adrodd straeon heddiw a ddoe.
En: Emrys, filled with newfound confidence, began to recount tales of today and yesterday.
Cy: Roedd Dafydd yn eich sbeitio, ac roedd Gwenyth yn ffrind faithful, yn eddi’r anturiaethau a oedd yn cael eu darganfod yng nghalon Emrys.
En: Dafydd was teasing, and Gwenyth was a faithful friend, weaving the adventures that were found within Emrys's heart.
Cy: Ar y diwedd, deallodd Emrys fod mytholeg yn fyw yn y lleoedd tawel hyn.
En: In the end, Emrys understood that mythology was alive in these quiet places.
Cy: Roedd meddyliau a straeon yn gallu llwyddo tu allan i derfynau amser.
En: Thoughts and stories could thrive beyond the bounds of time.
Cy: Wedi'i rwymo gyda doethineb newydd, troesodd ei lyw, yn barod i gofleidio’r hen straeon a’u ail-adrodd i unrhyw un a fyddai’n gwrando.
En: Bound with new wisdom, he turned his helm, ready to embrace the old tales and retell them to anyone who would listen.
Cy: Roedd y glannau, er gwyllt a gwyntog, wedi dod yn gludfa o hud.
En: The shores, though wild and windy, had become a vessel of magic.

En: Samhain now contained hidden capsules and heights of mystery.
