En: Along the beautiful coastline of Penfro, the autumn sun illuminated the beaches and coves with amber light. Cy: Roedd Eleri yn sefyll ar ben clogwyn uchel, ei llygaid yn gosod ar y môr glas. En: Eleri stood on a high cliff, her eyes fixed on the blue sea. Cy: Roedd hi'n gyfarwydd iawn â'r lle hwn, mor lynedd â’i hawyrgylch. En: She was very familiar with this place, as old as its atmosphere. Cy: Yn ei chalon, roedd angerdd dwfn am fywyd morol a'r cemeg arbennig sydd yn y cerryntoedd tanddwr yma. En: In her heart, there was a deep passion for marine life and the special chemistry in the underwater currents here. Cy: Roedd eleni yn flwyddyn heriol i'r mudiad cadwraeth. En: This year was challenging for the conservation movement. Cy: Cyllideb tynn, a siarad cyson am doriadau, oedd y brif sgwrs. En: A tight budget, and constant talk of cuts, was the main topic. Cy: Roedd Carys, pennaeth profiadol y tîm, yn bryderus. En: Carys, the experienced head of the team, was anxious. Cy: Roedd iddi hanes o delio gyda phrosiectau a fethodd, ac felly roedd hi'n ofalus iawn am unrhyw gynlluniau newydd, yn cynnwys syniad Eleri am gydlynu prosiect i ddiogelu'r riffiau cwrel. En: She had a history of dealing with failed projects, and so she was very cautious about any new plans, including Eleri's idea to coordinate a project to protect the coral reefs. Cy: Er i Ddafydd ymuno'r tîm yn ddiweddar, roedd yn llawn brwdfrydedd. En: Although Dafydd had joined the team recently, he was full of enthusiasm. Cy: Roedd am brofi ei hun. En: He wanted to prove himself. Cy: Efallai bod ei brofiad yn gyfyng, ond roedd ei ewyllys ymroddgar yn amlwg. En: His experience might have been limited, but his dedicated will was evident. Cy: Roedd yn ystyried Eleri fel mentor, ac awyddodd camau ymhellach na’r helpu gyda’r gorchwilio. En: He regarded Eleri as a mentor and wanted to take steps beyond just assisting with the research. Cy: Mewn cadair stormus o benderfyniadau, rhaid oedd i Eleri benderfynu. En: In a stormy chair of decisions, Eleri had to decide. Cy: A ddylai hi fynd ar ymosodiad ar wleidyddiaeth gyllido, neu ddylai hi gydweithredu gyda Dafydd a fentro coll arloeswyr credyd? En: Should she launch an attack on funding politics, or should she collaborate with Dafydd and risk pioneering credit loss? Cy: Ar hyd y dyddiau aeth hi'n dal i ystyried ymateb Carys. En: Throughout the days, she continued to consider Carys's response. Cy: "Mae angen inni gydweithio," roedd Dafydd yn awgrymu, ei lygaid llyfn yn byrlymu. En: "We need to work together," Dafydd suggested, his smooth eyes bubbling. Cy: "Gawn ni greu argraff gyda'n gilydd. En: "We can make an impression together." Cy: " Gwyddai Eleri yn ei chalon fod hyn yn wir. En: Eleri knew in her heart that this was true. Cy: A'r ysbrid hwnnw o gydweithrediad wnaeth arwain i ddigwyddiad anhygoel. En: And that spirit of collaboration led to something incredible. Cy: Ar ddiwrnod y gynhadledd arfordirol, pan orfododd y cynlluniau i ddod yn fyw, cwrddodd Eleri a Dafydd â'r rhoddwyr am y tro cyntaf. En: On the day of the coastal conference, when the plans had to come to life, Eleri and Dafydd met the donors for the first time.<br...
