    Cy: Lle mae adar yn canu uwchlaw rhannau o glogwyn carregog Carreg Cennen, roedd yr awyr haf wedi’i gwisgo â mŵg disglair.
    En: Where birds sing above parts of the rocky cliff of Carreg Cennen, the summer sky was dressed with a bright mist.

    Cy: Lluoedd o gymylau oedd yn bwydo'r teimlad dirgel.
    En: A multitude of clouds fed the mysterious feeling.

    Cy: Roedd Eira yn sefyll gyda Dylan a Gwyn, ei meddwl yn drysu rhwng yr hanes cudd a'i hawydd i ddeall y dirgelwch diweddar.
    En: Eira stood with Dylan and Gwyn, her mind swirling between the hidden history and her desire to understand the recent mystery.

    Cy: Soniwyd am hen arteffact mewn hen lawysgrifion, ateg o'r gorffennol.
    En: An ancient artifact was mentioned in old manuscripts, a relic from the past.

    Cy: Ond aeth ei mentor ar goll yn y rîns hyn, a dim ond dychel dirgelion oedd ar ôl.
    En: But her mentor went missing in these realms, leaving only a trail of mysteries behind.

    Cy: Roedd Eira am wybod y gwir.
    En: Eira wanted to know the truth.

    Cy: “Mae’n rhaid bod rhywbeth yn y tŷ hwn,” meddai hi, yn syllu ar y creigiau crensian.
    En: "There must be something in this house," she said, staring at the crunching rocks.

    Cy: Roedd ofn lleoedd caeedig wedi dal yn glynu wrthi, ond roedd yn rhaid iddi barhau.
    En: The fear of enclosed places clung to her, but she had to continue.

    Cy: Dylan oedd yn chwilio am antur newydd bob amsar, ond roedd yn weddus trwy gydol hyn.
    En: Dylan was always looking for a new adventure, though he remained respectful throughout this one.

    Cy: Roedd ddim yn ymddiried mewn pobl yn hawdd, hyd yn oed Eira.
    En: He didn't trust people easily, not even Eira.

    Cy: “Beth am Gwyn?
    En: "What about Gwyn?"

    Cy: ” meddai Dylan mewn llais isel.
    En: Dylan asked in a low voice.

    Cy: Roedd Gwyn yn arweinydd lleol, gyda dyfalu eang yn swnio trwy’r bryniau.
    En: Gwyn was a local leader, with wide-reaching speculation echoing through the hills.

    Cy: Roedd ganddo gyfrinachau ei hun, rhywbeth oedd yn anesboniadwy i Eira a Dylan.
    En: He had secrets of his own, something inexplicable to Eira and Dylan.

    Cy: “Yn gweddio i’r hen stori fyrlymus eto?
    En: "Praying to the old bustling story again?"

    Cy: ” ddaeth llais Gwyn yn ôl.
    En: came Gwyn's voice in return.

    Cy: Wrth iddo siarad, cynyddodd gwyntoedd y storm, yn gwneud i’r wal o lithrin ddod yn fachgen lwch.
    En: As he spoke, the winds of the storm increased, causing the wall of shale to turn into a cloud of dust.

    Cy: Roeddynt yn symud ymlaen, Gwyn yn eu harwain drwy'r tŵr â chefen a choesau enbyd.
    En: They moved forward, Gwyn leading them through the tower with a back and legs that seemed indomitable.

    Cy: Roedd datgelu hanes y castell, mewn llais mwmian na allai esgeuluso'r annoedd, yn plesio Eira.
    En: Unraveling the history of the castle, in a murmured voice that could not neglect the walls, delighted Eira.

    Cy: Dylan yn sicr ddim yn credu’r celwyddau.
    En: Dylan certainly didn't believe the lies.

    Cy: Ac eto, roedd yn gallu gweld dros y ffin, gweld rhywbeth oedd yn berthnasol.
    En: And yet, he could see beyond the boundary, seeing something relevant.

    Cy: Wrth iddynt gyrraedd siambr gudd, siglwyd creigiau gan ddent y storm.
    En: As they reached a hidden chamber, rocks were shaken by the force of the storm.

    Cy: Roedd ofn Eira yn llawn ond roedd hi’n gwybod bod rhaid iddi wynebu eu ofn.
    En: Eira's fear was overwhelming, but she knew she had to face her fear.

    Cy: Yn y siambr honno, daeth i hyd i’r arteffact.
    En: In that chamber, she found the artifact.

    Cy: Ond nid roedd hynny’n ddigon.
    En: But that wasn't enough.

    Cy: Gyda syndod, daeth Gwyn ymlaen, yn llawen gwynebu’r gwirionedd.
    En: With surprise, Gwyn stepped forward, gladly facing the truth.

    Cy: Roedd hyn yn ganolog i’i deulu, ei hynafiaid.
    En: This was central to his family, his ancestors.

    Cy: Roedd hyn yn fersiwn o frad o amseroedd hir, a’n greulon iawn.
    En: This was a version of betrayal from long times ago, and a very cruel one.

    Cy: “Oeddwn i mewn gwybodaeth hyn,” Gwyn yn cyfaddef, “Mae’n bryd symudmlaen.
    En: "I was informed of this," Gwyn admitted, "It's time to move on."

    Cy: ” Pan ddaethant yn ôl i’r lleuad, roedd popeth wedi newid.
    En: When they returned to the moonlight, everything had changed.

    Cy: Roedd Eira yn medru cynnal gwell parch yn hun a deall bod cydweithio yn electron ac yn hanfodol.
    En: Eira could maintain a better self-respect and understood that collaboration was both electric and essential.

    Cy: Roedd Dylan ddim mwy amheus, a Gwyn yn gallu rhyddhau ei ysbryd o’r gorffennol drwm.
    En: Dylan was no longer skeptical, and Gwyn could free his spirit from the heavy past.

    Cy: Roedd y tir yn llawn hanes newydd, rhaffau ceisio’u dolennu gyda'r newydd-ddeall.
    En: The land was full of new history, ropes trying to weave with the newly found understanding.

    Cy: Roedd y realiti yn cwestiynu hyd yn oed y stiwardiaeth.
    En: Reality was questioning even the stewardship.

    Cy: Eira, Dylan, a Gwyn - oedd wedi diwygio ac adnewyddu eu teithdiroedd yn einwami hanel.

    Cy: Ar ben bryn gwyrdd yn niwylltir Cymru, lle mae'r cerrig aros wedi hen sefydlu, roedd Eira, Gwyn, a Llew yn sefyll dan gysgod y cylch cerrig hynafol.
    En: On a green hill in the wilds of Cymru, where the standing stones have long been established, Eira, Gwyn, and Llew stood under the shadow of the ancient stone circle.

    Cy: Roedd yr awyr yn ddisglair ac yn boeth, ond roedd awgrym o storm yn yr oerni a ddaliai mewn cwmwl cefndir.
    En: The sky was bright and hot, but there was a hint of storm in the chill that held within a background cloud.

    Cy: Roedd fel pe baent ar ddiroedd sanctaidd, lle roedd amser wedi'i gopïo gan gerrig yn hytrach na llyfrau.
    En: It felt as if they were on sacred ground, where time had been recorded by stones rather than books.

    Cy: Eira sefyll yn dawel, a golwg dychrynllyd yn ei llygaid.
    En: Eira stood silently, a terrifying look in her eyes.

    Cy: “Mae dy dad wedi caru'r lle hwn,” siaradaeth hi, yn dal llaw Llew ac yn edrych ar Gwyn, er mwyn ei theimlo.
    En: “Your father loved this place,” she spoke, holding Llew's hand and looking at Gwyn, to sense her.

    Cy: “Roedd yn dweud bod y cerrig hyn yn byw ac yn clywed ein deisyfiadau.”
    En: “He used to say that these stones are alive and hear our prayers.”

    Cy: Safai Gwyn, hen famol ei wyneb, gyda'i breichiau wedi'i chroesi.
    En: Gwyn stood, her face earnest, with her arms crossed.

    Cy: “Nid wyf yn gweld sut bydd hyn yn ein helpu ni,” safle hi yn ddiddiwedd.
    En: “I don’t see how this will help us,” she stood endlessly.

    Cy: Ond roedd rhywbeth am lefydd, rywsut, wedi dod â gostyngiad yn ei chalon.
    En: But there was something about the place that, somehow, had brought a softening in her heart.

    Cy: Daeth Llew agos at y cerrig, ei lyfrnod bach yn chwilio am arwyddion unrhyw bresenoldeb ysbrydol.
    En: Llew came close to the stones, his small notebook searching for signs of any spiritual presence.

    Cy: Roedd y myfyrwyr gwyddoniaeth uchel ei gelwyddau yn ei lygaid.
    En: His scientific mind was bright in his eyes.

    Cy: “Os gwelwch yn dda, Dad, cymerof wybod beth o’ch cyfrinachau,” siaradaeth gyda’r awel.
    En: “Please, Dad, let me know some of your secrets,” he spoke to the breeze.

    Cy: Roedd Eira yn gwybod mai nid hawdd fyddai denu Gwyn allan o blentyn curodi a digofaint.
    En: Eira knew it wouldn’t be easy to draw Gwyn out of a child’s brooding and anger.

    Cy: Penderfynodd hi adrodd stori, fel yr arferai eu tad.
    En: She decided to tell a story, as their father used to.

    Cy: “Mae stori’r lle hwn yn un anhygoel,” dechreuodd hi’n ddwfn.
    En: “The story of this place is an incredible one,” she began deeply.

    Cy: “Cyn cof, dywedir bod y cerrig yn gyrff ddewiniaid sy’n amddiffyn y tir.
    En: “Long ago, it is said the stones are the bodies of druids protecting the land.

    Cy: Roedd dy dad yn dywed bod fersiwn o’r stori ble mae'r carreg fawr hon yn borth i fyd arall.
    En: Your father used to say there’s a version of the story where this big stone is a portal to another world.”

    Cy: Gosododd Gwyn ei llygaid ar y garreg fawr, am y tro cyntaf gan edrych arni gyda diddordeb go iawn.
    En: Gwyn set her eyes on the big stone, for the first time looking at it with genuine interest.

    Cy: Teimlodd y dirgryniadau ysgafn yn dod o'r cyfeiriad, a rhywbeth yn symud yn ei chalonnau.
    En: She felt the light vibrations coming from its direction and something move within her heart.

    Cy: Yna, yr awyr drawst ler y bryn ddechreuodd trosglwyddo ei dafod, a gyrrwyd trycherog.
    En: Then, the sky across the hill began to sound its tongue and drove angered.

    Cy: Cawod drom a tharanog roo'n disgyn o fin y gorwel.
    En: A heavy and thundering shower started to fall from the edge of the horizon.

    Cy: “Rhaid i ni loches yn y cylch!” siaradaeth Llew, yn cludo ei nain tuag at y cerrig a chefnogi Gwyn ar hyd y ffordd.
    En: “We must shelter in the circle!” Llew spoke, guiding his grandmother towards the stones and supporting Gwyn along the way.

    Cy: Yn yr amddiffynfa tymor fer eu creu gan y cerrig, roedd y teulu yn cuddio.
    En: In the short-term protection created by the stones, the family hid.

    Cy: Roedd y glaw trigol llawen ar y caeau ond fe wnaeth y teulu eu cyd-dynnu.
    En: The joyful rain fell on the fields, but the family held each other tight.

    Cy: Yn y cysgodau'r cerrig, torrodd Gwyn y dawelwch.
    En: In the shadows of the stones, Gwyn broke the silence.

    Cy: “Rwy’n gweld y cerrig, rwy’n eu hysibrâu - roedd Dad yn gwybod.” Dagrau'n llifo ar hyd ei hyllagau.
    En: “I see the stones, I feel their whispers - Dad knew.” Tears flowed down her cheeks.

    Cy: Cysylltwyd Eira a roesman i Gwyn, yn dabodi gyda hithau'n dawel.
    En: Eira reached and held Gwyn, nodding with her silently.

    Cy: “Mae ef yma gyda ni, drwy ein cariad at ein gilydd,” gofrestrodd hi’n foel, gan bwylltio Gwyn yn ei harfog.
    En: “He is here with us, through our love for one another,” she reassured quietly, embracing Gwyn in her arms.

    Cy: Wedi i'r storm adael ei ffrwyn, codasant o'r cylch, yn fwy cobeb, yn dyn a gilydd.
    En: As the storm released its grip, they rose from the circle, more bonded, close to each other.

    Cy: Y golau haul hefyd oedd yn bwrw dros yr agoryddion fäerü ac yn bwrw blith.
    En: The sunlight also poured over the meadows, shining bright.

    Cy: Llew edrychodd ganrif uwch y ffurf, dra pysal.
    En: Llew looked towards the horizon, deeply thoughtful.

    Cy: “Mae dad wedi bod gyda ni,” datganodd â hyder.
    En: “Dad has been with us,” he declared confidently.

    Cy: Roedd y teulu'n cerdded ar hyd y brynhawn, gyda nhw'n cysylltu o'r newydd gan un plyg o fraw sydd o'u gobeithiau.
    En: The family walked along the afternoon, with bonds renewed by a shared hope.

    Cy: Roeddent wedi derbyn cariad, erbyn hyn deall bod dau ddyn a dim un bu ansicrwydd yn bwysicach.
    En: They had received love, now understanding that togetherness had no uncertainties more important.

    Cy: Roedd ynddynt bob troes tuag at ei gilydd, ym mlwyddyn eu diolchgarwch.
    En: They turned towards one another, in a year of their gratitude.

    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Gan oedd yr haul yn dawnsio ar gopa'r mynydd, roedd Caradoc ac Eira yn teimlo'r golau'n cynhesu eu hwynebau.
    En: As the sun danced on the summit of the mountain, Caradoc and Eira felt the light warming their faces.

    Cy: Roedd y llwybr i gopa’r Wyddfa yn faestref o ansicrwydd arnynt o hyd, yn enwedig heddiw.
    En: The path to the summit of Yr Wyddfa was still a mixture of uncertainty for them, especially today.

    Cy: Er eu bod wedi cerdded yma sawl gwaith o'r blaen, heddiw teimlwyd fel taith wahanol—un gyda phwrpas cudd.
    En: Even though they had walked here many times before, today felt like a different journey—one with a hidden purpose.

    Cy: Tra roedd Eira yn cymryd anadl ddofn, roedd ei meddwl yn troi at y dyddiau wedi pasio eu tad.
    En: While Eira took a deep breath, her mind turned to the days that had passed since losing their father.

    Cy: Roedd ei deimladau'n gymysgedd o hiraeth a gwrthodiad.
    En: Her feelings were a mix of longing and denial.

    Cy: Wrth dreiddio trwy'r llwybr, roedd y daith o flaen Caradoc a'r casgliad teithiau o'i feddyg llenwi â chynhesrwydd a braw.
    En: As they threaded through the path, the journey ahead of Caradoc and the collection of journeys in his memory were filled with warmth and dread.

    Cy: Roedd e yn fwy tawel na phryd bynnag, yn ymroddedig i gyflawni dymuniad olaf eu tad.
    En: He was quieter than ever, devoted to fulfilling their father's last wish.

    Cy: Yn ystod pob cam cariadus, roedd Eira yn darganfod mwy am bwrpas gwirioneddol y daith—mae Caradoc yn ddall iddo fe.
    En: With each loving step, Eira discovered more about the true purpose of the journey—Caradoc was blind to it.

    Cy: “Pam yma?
    En: "Why here?"

    Cy: ” gofynnodd Eira'n sydyn, yn ceisio dadansoddi ei brawd.
    En: Eira asked suddenly, trying to analyze her brother.

    Cy: “Mae Dad eisiau bod yma—bob tro,” meddai Caradoc heb dawelu, ei lais yn dyner ond yn benderfynol.
    En: "Dad wants to be here—every time," Caradoc said without hesitation, his voice gentle yet determined.

    Cy: Wrth i’r mynydd agor rhagddynt, teimlai'r ddau gyffro ac ofn.
    En: As the mountain opened up before them, both felt excitement and fear.

    Cy: Roedd y golygfeydd o'r dyffrynnoedd o'u cwmpas yn addo tawelwch—tawelwch roedd Caradoc a Eira angen amdano.
    En: The views of the valleys around them promised tranquility—a tranquility Caradoc and Eira needed.

    Cy: Pan cyrhaeddon nhw’r copa, gyda'r gwynt yn canu trwy eu clustiau, sylweddolodd Eira'r pwrpas ofod heddiw.
    En: When they reached the summit, with the wind singing through their ears, Eira realized the purpose of the space today.

    Cy: Swydd החוק heno oedd hyfforddiant.
    En: Tonight's ceremony was training.

    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Wrth i'r haul fachlud dros yr aber yng Nghaerfyrddin, cerddodd Llywelyn lawr i'r traeth.
    En: As the sun set over the estuary in Caerfyrddin, Llywelyn walked down to the beach.

    Cy: Roedd y noson yn llonydd, gyda'r llanw yn cryn fachlud ar yr oresafoedd tywod euraidd.
    En: The evening was calm, with the tide gently receding on the golden sandbanks.

    Cy: Roedd y lleuad yn taflu golau arian dros y tonnau, y mynyddoedd pellennig yn gorwedd fel cysgodion yn y pellter.
    En: The moon cast a silvery light over the waves, with the distant mountains lying like shadows on the horizon.

    Cy: Roedd y golygfeydd yn ddelfrydol ar gyfer y dathliad arbennig oedd i ddod.
    En: The scene was ideal for the special celebration that was to come.

    Cy: Daeth Seren a Eleri, ffrindiau agos Llywelyn, i mewn i'r golwg o'r tu ôl i gornel tywodfaen.
    En: Seren and Eleri, Llywelyn's close friends, appeared from behind a sandstone corner.

    Cy: Roeddent yn chwilio am nod weddes ar hyd y traeth.
    En: They were searching for a specific spot along the beach.

    Cy: "Llywelyn!" galwasant, llawen a chyffro yn eu llais, wrth iddyn nhw roi eu cylchau i'r haul yn ei adlewyrchiad grisialol.
    En: "Llywelyn!" they called, joy and excitement in their voices, as they let the rings fall into the crystal reflection of the sun.

    Cy: Roedden nhw newydd ddyweddïo ac roedd noson arbennig wedi'i neilltuo i ddathlu.
    En: They had just become engaged, and a special evening was set aside to celebrate.

    Cy: Roedd Llywelyn yn llawen iawn dros ei ffrindiau, ond teimlai rhywfaint o alar am y newidiadau yn eu bywydau.
    En: Llywelyn was very happy for his friends but felt a pang of sadness about the changes in their lives.

    Cy: Roedd ofn y dyfodol yn ei hedfan, a theimlai'n ansicr am ei lwybr ei hun.
    En: The fear of the future hovered over him, and he felt uncertain about his own path.

    Cy: Ond penderfynodd, y noson hon, i beidio â gadael i'r ansicrwydd hwnnw rwystro'r dathlu.
    En: But he decided, on this night, not to let that uncertainty hinder the celebration.

    Cy: Yn lle hynny, penderfynodd wneud rhywbeth arbennig.
    En: Instead, he decided to do something special.

    Cy: Eisteddodd ar y tywod meddal, a gydag un symudiad, dechreuodd ysgrifennu neges gydag arswyd yn ei galon.
    En: He sat on the soft sand, and with one motion, began to write a message with a thrill in his heart.

    Cy: "Cymrwch gariad a chefnogaeth gyda chi wrth i chi fentro ymlaen," ysgrifennodd, gan deimlo ei ddwylo'n ysgafn wrth iddo ysgrifennu'r geiriau yn ofalus.
    En: "Take love and support with you as you venture ahead," he wrote, feeling his hands lighten as he carefully inscribed the words.

    Cy: O'i ferangle gododd a symudodd tua’r pâr cyffrous.
    En: Rising from his seat, he moved towards the excited couple.

    Cy: "Edrychwch," meddai Llywelyn, gan arwain Seren ac Eleri tua'r man lle ysgrifennodd ei neges.
    En: "Look," said Llywelyn, leading Seren and Eleri to the spot where he had written his message.

    Cy: Wrth iddynt ddarllen, rhai cynfasau'r llanw yn ôl, roedd symudiadau o lawenydd yn llenwi eu hwynebau.
    En: As they read it, some ripples from the tide retraced back, movements of joy filled their faces.

    Cy: "Diolch, Llywelyn," meddai Eleri, a'i llygaid yn olau â dagrau, "mae hyn yn golygu mwy nag y gall geiriau ei fynegi."
    En: "Thank you, Llywelyn," said Eleri, her eyes bright with tears, "this means more than words can express."

    Cy: Roedd barcud nos yn plymio'n isel dros ben, rhamant y gweld i amrwn.
    En: A night kite swooped low overhead, the romance of the sight nearly overwhelming.

    Cy: Rhedeg y tonnau'n dyner, roedd serenog wedi dechrau dŷsni'n uwch.
    En: The waves ran gently, signaling the rise of a starry night.

    Cy: Daeth gwen ar wyneb Llywelyn wrth iddo fagu dewrder o'r awel ymlon.
    En: A smile appeared on Llywelyn’s face as he drew courage from the gentle breeze.

    Cy: Roedd gwybod mai newidiadau fuelliannus yn eitemau canol, ond troes olwg y drefnyddiwyd y rhai hynny'n caer.
    En: He knew that changes were inevitable, but viewed them as turning points that could be embraced.

    Cy: A'r tafod o ddylanwad y ffrindiau yn hollleithiaf.
    En: The influence of friends remained ever-present.

    Cy: Roedd Seren, Eleri, a Llywelyn yn eistedd mewn cylch ar y traeth, eu clustiau yn llonydd i symffoni'r mor.
    En: Seren, Eleri, and Llywelyn sat in a circle on the beach, their ears attuned to the ocean's symphony.

    Cy: Llywelyn, mor deimladol, roed ganddo'r teimlad braf o bobl sydd, serch newid, yn aros yn driw.
    En: Llywelyn, so thoughtful, felt a warm sense of belonging with those who, despite change, remained true.

    Cy: Roedd y noson hon wedi ei siapio yn un o fonau fondigrybiol, fel y mynnent eu diffodd wrth iddynt olchi'n ôl, trwy bendelw serchiol y chwildiwydd.
    En: This night had been shaped as one of remarkable bonds, as they resolved to finish their evening within the affectionate fold of their friendship.

    Cy: Roedd ser y nos yn adlewyrchiad perffaith o'u bywyd yng nghanolog y byd, canolbwynt daith bywyd a naws, symbolaidd o'r cysylltiadau y byddent yn eu cynnal am byth.
    En: The night stars were a perfect reflection of their lives, centered in the world, highlighting the journey of life and mood, symbolic of the connections they would maintain forever.
