He raised the child, who grew with uncanny speed, coming of age before his first year.
When Teyrnon heard of Rhiannon’s lost infant, taken on the very night he fought the creature, the truth was clear. He returned the boy to Dyfed, where Rhiannon named him Pryderi, from the Welsh for “anxiety".

Just such a weird choice of material, given that the original sources are so resolutely pagan!

Eek, I've just been looking into it... Apparently it's part of the Daily Wire's agenda to make content that reflects a "masculine Christianity".... Not immediately obvious how that fits their agenda, but doesn't instill a lot of hope!

In this version of the myth, the Grail is replaced by a severed head on a platter. The witches defeat Arthur's knights one by one, until Peredur himself steps up and defeats the coven leader with a single blow, breaking their magic.

Ha! Yeah, it's not an obvious one... I'd say try 'goo-ith-boo-ill', that'd be close. The 'll' sound at the end is that particular Welsh fricative though, that's the trickiest part!

Diolch! Me too... :)

Very interesting! I believe there's significantly more Welsh written online than Irish, perhaps the 'critical mass' of language needed lies somewhere between those two?

The child would of course grow up to become the great bard Taliesin, and those first poetic words he spoke would be known as Dyhuddiant Elffin. The poem attributed to the baby bard can still be read today, preserved in the Book of Taliesin.

Interestingly, both stories are filled with vivid, highly specific imagery - clothing patterns and colours, architectural layouts, precise positioning of troops and servants. Instead of the surreal that we usually associate with dream sequences, these stories are as sharply clear as reality.

Neither player wins, however, with Arthur throwing a temper tantrum and smashing the board before the game is complete! Rhonabwy eventually awakes, to find he has been sleeping solidly for three days.
