En: On a gentle morning in October, Rhian walked through a misty valley in the Deheudir. Cy: Roedd yr awyr yn dyner ac yn llawn arogl dail sych. En: The air was mild and full of the scent of dry leaves. Cy: Cerdded at y cylch cerrig hynafol oedd ei nod. En: Her goal was to walk to the ancient stone circle. Cy: Er bod pawb arall yn y pentref yn paratoi ar gyfer Gŵyl y Cynhaeaf, roedd ganddi waith pwysig iawn i'w wneud. En: While everyone else in the village was preparing for the Harvest Festival, she had very important work to do. Cy: Roedd Rhian yn hanesydd brwdfrydig, yn llawn awydd i brofi ei damcaniaethau am hen draddodiadau Cymreig. En: Rhian was an enthusiastic historian, eager to prove her theories about old Welsh traditions. Cy: Roedd y cylch cerrig yn cuddio hanesion na ddarganfyddwyd eto. En: The stone circle concealed tales that had not yet been discovered. Cy: Hebryngodd ymosodiad Dafydd, ei gwrthwynebydd academaidd, fwy fyth ei hegni. En: The assault on her efforts by Dafydd, her academic rival, fueled her energy even more. Cy: Amledd oedd wedi bod yn ceisio tanseilio'i hymdrechion. En: He frequently tried to undermine her efforts. Cy: Wedi cyrraedd y cylch cerrig, dechreuodd archwilio. En: Upon reaching the stone circle, she began to explore. Cy: Roedd y cerrig, yn cael eu gorchuddio â mwsogl ac ynddynt arysgrifau anhygyrch, yn sefyll fel cewri tawel. En: The stones, covered in moss and bearing indecipherable inscriptions, stood like silent giants. Cy: Roedd llyfrau o mewn cwch ar ben y cerrig. En: There were books inside a nook on top of the stones. Cy: Ar un adeg, yn fan sydyn, gwelodd Rhian arteffact yn disgleirio'n rhyfedd rhwng y cerrig. En: At one point, suddenly, Rhian saw an artifact glittering strangely between the stones. Cy: Ymddangosai i fod yn athrylithiaeth ddrudfawr. En: It appeared to be of brilliant craftsmanship. Cy: Roedd hynny'n ddarllediad da i'w gwaith ysgrifenedig, a dim ond trwy ddeall yr arteffact hyn allai Rhian brofi ei damcaniaethau. En: This was a good omen for her written work, and only by understanding this artifact could Rhian prove her theories. Cy: Roedd angen iddi aros yno dros nos, er peryglon. En: She needed to stay there overnight, despite the dangers. Cy: Ym noson yr Ŵyl y Cynhaeaf, pan fyddai'r lleuad yn gyflawn, dechreuodd y cerrig ganu gyda grym. En: On the night of the Harvest Festival, when the moon was full, the stones began to sing with power. Cy: Roedd y disgleirdeb o fewn yr arteffact yn gynyddol gref. En: The brightness within the artifact became increasingly strong. Cy: Roedd rhywbeth arbennig yn digwydd. En: Something extraordinary was happening. Cy: Gwaeddodd Dafydd arni gan annog hi i adael, ond ni fyddai Rhian yn rhoddi'r gorau. En: Dafydd shouted at her urging her to leave, but Rhian wouldn’t give up. Cy: Wedi talu sylw manwl i'r symbolau, daeth yr ateb iddi. En: Paying close attention to the symbols, the answer came to her. Cy: Dadorchuddiodd neges guddiedig yn lleisio gwawdlun o ddylanwad eu hysbrydion hynafol. En: She uncovered a hidden message echoing a parody of the influence of their ancient spirits. Cy: Yn ystod deffroad y lleuad llawn, torrodd dopog pebble, gan ddatgelu cysyniad newydd am hanes’r Druidiaid. En: During the awakening of the full moon, a pebble's top broke, revealing a new concept about the history of the Druids. Cy: Datblygodd, trwy'r holl brofiad, fod Rhian ddim angen diswyddio Dafydd fel gelyn. En: Through the entire experience, Rhian realized she didn't need to dismiss Dafydd as an enemy. Cy: Dechreuodd ar y cyd ar y gwaith, gan gydweithio. En: They began working together, collaborating. Cy: Arweiniodd y gwasanaeth ar y cylch cerrig at bwysig ehangach na’r ddau. En: The service at the stone circle led to a significance wider than the two of them. Cy: Roedd cymdeithas ar gyfer Gŵyl y Cynhaeaf wedi darganfod gwybodaeth newydd, ac roedd Rhian wedi dod i deimlo'n sicr yn ei gwaith academaidd. En: The Harvest Festival society had discovered new information, and Rhian had come to feel assured in her academic work. Cy: Wrth iddi droi yn ôl i'r dyffryn, roedd Rhian yn teimlo bod dechreuad newydd o flaen y golau, a'r grawys cymhleth iawn yn ei bywyd yn drawsolid ar gyfer y tro cyntaf. En: As she turned back to the valley, Rhian felt that a new beginning lay ahead in the light, and the very complex tapestry of her life was solidified for the first time. Cy: Roedd hi bellach yn fwy hyderus a pharod i gydweithio ar gyfer dyfodol llawn mwy o anterth. En: She was now more confident and ready to collaborate for a future filled with even greater achievement. Vocabulary Words: gentle: mwyn misty: niwlog valley: dyffryn ancient: hynafol hist
