    Story Transcript:

    Cy: Mae’r awyr yn drwm gyda’r arogl o goffi ffres wrth iddi droi'n hwyr yn ystod dathliadau Calan Gaeaf ym Marina Abertawe.
    En: The air is heavy with the smell of fresh coffee as it turns late during the Calan Gaeaf celebrations at the Marina Abertawe.

    Cy: Gwneir swyn hud o'r egin newydd a gwin pob man wrth i blant wisgo'u gwisgoedd ysbryd i gasglu pwdinau.
    En: A magical charm is made from fresh shoots and mulled wine as children dress in their ghostly costumes to collect treats.

    Cy: Ond heddiw, nid yw golwg falch Marina Abertawe y peth mwyaf diddorol.
    En: But today, the proud sight of Marina Abertawe isn't the most intriguing thing.

    Cy: Mae rhywbeth arall wedi cynhyrfu’r dref – gwrthrych dirgel yn nofio yn y dŵr.
    En: Something else has stirred the town - a mysterious object floating in the water.

    Cy: Eira, myfyrwyr prifysgol yn astudio bioleg y môr, sef ei hun wrth ymyl y dŵr, chwilfrydig a phryderus.
    En: Eira, a university student studying marine biology, finds herself by the water, curious and anxious.

    Cy: “Mae’n rhaid i mi ddarganfod beth yw e!” meddai hi wrthi hi ei hun, codi ei llygaid i Orwelon’r môr.
    En: “I must find out what it is!” she tells herself, lifting her eyes to the horizon of the sea.

    Cy: “Dim ond chwedl ydy e, Eira,” dywedodd Gethin, pysgotwr lleol gyda storiâu haerllug o uchder.
    En: “It’s just a legend, Eira,” said Gethin, a local fisherman with tall tales.

    Cy: Roedd ei wyneb, wedi ei lygru gan y gwynt môr, yn adleisio balchder a beirgyn.
    En: His face, weathered by the sea wind, echoed pride and boldness.

    Cy: “Mae pob chwedl yn gorfod dod o rhywle,” rhybuddiodd Eira, disgleirio o dan y golau llanw sy’n taro dros y cei.
    En: “Every legend has got to come from somewhere,” Eira warned, shining under the tidal light that strikes above the quay.

    Cy: Yn agos, roedd Caffi y Marina yn brysur gyda seciwencau o clecs a chlyfrau.
    En: Nearby, the Caffi y Marina was bustling with sequences of gossip and chatter.

    Cy: Rhosyn, perchennog y lle, yn seren ar yr ysgwydd a'i wyneb yn barod i ddod i’r fei.
    En: Rhosyn, the owner, was a star on the shoulder with her face ready to step in.

    Cy: “Beth bynnag yw e, nid wyf isio unrhyw faint o dryblith yn trafferthu fy ngwsmeriaid,” dywedodd hi’n holl gredadwy.
    En: “Whatever it is, I don’t want any amount of trouble bothering my customers,” she said quite credibly.

    Cy: Ond roedd teimlad rhyfeddu tu mewn i Rhosyn yn codi ei gyffro, a chafodd ei hun yn chwilio am wynebiaeth ymysg ei chwsmeriaid, chwilio am rhyw gwybodaeth na roedd hi eto wedi clywed.
    En: But there was a feeling of wonder rising in Rhosyn that sparked her excitement, and she found herself searching for a face among her customers, searching for some information she hadn’t yet heard.

    Cy: Yn wynebu penbleth, penderfynodd Eira actio a gofynnodd am help.
    En: Facing a dilemma, Eira decided to act and asked for help.

    Cy: “Nid oeddwn wedi gweld rhywbeth tebyg,” cytunodd Gethin y tro hwn, wrth fachu ei gwch, “Ond rwy’n gwirioni ar greadigrwydd!”
    En: “I hadn’t seen anything like it,” Gethin agreed this time, while docking his boat, “But I love the creativity!”

    Cy: Er gwaethaf y superstitions, daeth Gethin ac Eira at ei gilydd gyda rhestr o wybodaeth gan bobl y marina.
    En: Despite the superstitions, Gethin and Eira came together with a list of information from the people of the marina.

    Cy: Roedd Rhosyn, gyda’i synnwyr busnes barn, wedi bod y clustiau i'r si a’r digwyddiadau.
    En: Rhosyn, with her sharp business sense, had been all ears to the gossip and the happenings.

    Cy: Noson Calan Gaeaf, gydag awyr tywyll fel sefyllfa.
    En: Calan Gaeaf night, with a dark sky like a tableau.

    Cy: Daeth hwyl osgordd blwcwr a llusernau dynion at eu gilydd.
    En: There was a flow of dockworkers and men's lanterns coming together.

    Cy: Wrth fynd at ei le, yr oedd y gwrthrych mewn gwirionedd arteg hen hanes – gyda marciau dirgel wedi’u cyfleu ar ei orchudd.
    En: Upon their arrival, the object was indeed an artifact of old history - with mysterious markings inscribed on its cover.

    Cy: Gwnaeth hyn cwestiynau newydd yn ei dro, cwestiynau o fel, pan a pham ei bod yn cyrraedd yma.
    En: This led to new questions in turn, questions of how, when, and why it arrived here.

    Cy: Ffrwydrodd trafodaeth yn ei gorau ymysg y cydymdeimlad, gyda straeon Rhosyn yn symbylu cyfrinachedd eu cyfarfyddiad.
    En: Discussion exploded at its best among the crowd, with Rhosyn's stories inspiring the secrecy of their encounter.

    Cy: Haerai Gethin hon eto, ond o'r diwedd, byddai'n derbyn yr anrhydedd a haerwyd am ei sgiliau ac ymchwil.
    En: Gethin boasted once more, but ultimately, he would receive the honor claimed for his skills and research.

    Cy: Ddaru Eira yn sylweddoli, bod cyfle i uno hanes a’r dylluan er mwyn gosod rhywbeth yn symud i ddyfodol.
    En: Eira realized there was an opportunity to merge history and science to set something in motion for the future.

    Cy: Mae'r gymuned wedi mabwysiadu thema newydd wedi rhannu straeon ac wedi tynnu gwres o eu cofiant.
    En: The community had adopted a new theme, sharing stories and drawing warmth from their memories.

    Cy: Mae ardaith Eira wedi bod yn cyfoethogi ei hyder, wedi gwrthod iddo’i hun wrth iddynt ddarganfod hen neges cryptig wedi'i ynghudd – cyfrinach wedi gwthio plant i mewn i newydd, ddeunydd gwerthfawr i'w maes ymdocciau.
    En: Eira's journey had enriched her confidence, had denied to herself as they discovered an old cryptic message hidden - a secret that pushed children into a new, valuable material for their study fields.

    Cy: Wedi i lawer o wagedd a chaws rhaid: “Pan fyddwn ni i gyd at ei gilydd, rydym yn cael ei gilydd yn well,” meddyliodd Eira wrth orymdeithio gyda phulleith.
    En: After much ado and cheese must: “When we all come together, we find each other better,” thought Eira while parading with delight.

    Cy: Enillydd y teulu - roedd cynysgaeth newydd i mwynhau ar gyfer Marina Abertawe.
    En: A new endowment was to be enjoyed for Marina Abertawe.
