En: It was in the darkness of autumn, and the house Bryn Mawr stood like a horrific style rainbow atop the hills of North Wales. Cy: Roedd y niwl yn casglu mewn cwmwl cymylog o gwmpas y tŷ, gan greu awyrgylch gyfrinachol. En: The mist gathered in a cloudy shroud around the house, creating a mysterious atmosphere. Cy: Roedd y gardd wedi gordyfu ers blynyddoedd ac roedd y dail yn rhosod yn islaw troed. En: The garden had overgrown for years, and the leaves rested beneath foot. Cy: Eira oedd yn ei chanol hi. En: Eira was at its center. Cy: Wrth iddi gerdded i fyny'r llwybr creigiog at y drws ffrynt, cafodd ysbrydoliaeth gan y tŷ hynafol. En: As she walked up the rocky path to the front door, she felt inspired by the ancient house. Cy: Roedd hi wedi dod i dreulio Gwyl Calan Gaeaf gyda'r teulu, ond roedd rhywbeth arall yn ei hudo. En: She had come to spend Halloween with the family, but something else was beckoning her. Cy: Ers sbel, roedd breuddwydion wedi bod yn dod i'w meddwl, breuddwydion am lyfrgell cudd a chyfrinachau brawychus. En: For a while, dreams had been coming to her mind, dreams of a hidden library and frightening secrets. Cy: "Roeddwn i'n gweld yr un golygon eto neithiwr," meddai wrth Gareth, ei gefnder, wrth iddo agosáu. En: "I saw the same visions again last night," she said to Gareth, her cousin, as he approached. Cy: "Dw i'n gwybod bod rhyw gyfrinach fan hyn. En: "I know there's some secret here." Cy: ""Paid â synfyfyrio, Eira," meddyliodd Gareth, "Dim ond breuddwydion ydyn nhw. En: "Don't daydream, Eira," Gareth thought, "They're just dreams." Cy: "Ond roedd Eira'n benderfynol o ddilyn ei greddf. En: But Eira was determined to follow her intuition. Cy: Pan oedd pawb yn brysur yn y cinio teulu mawr, llithrodd Eira i ffwrdd. En: When everyone was busy at the big family dinner, Eira slipped away. Cy: Roedd hi'n cofio straeon am ganghell sydd o dan y tŷ a allai gysylltu â'r llyfrgell. En: She remembered stories about a dungeon beneath the house that could connect to the library. Cy: Gwyddai dynion y tŷ ei bod wrth fwrdd, yng nghanol twrw teulu, na fyddai neb yn sylwi. En: She knew that the men of the house, being at the table amidst the family clamor, would not notice her absence. Cy: Aeth Eira trwy'r coridorau tywyll, gan deimlo planhigion bychain o ochenaid yn codi ar hyd ei hysgwyddau. En: Eira went through the dark corridors, feeling small plants of sighs rising along her shoulders. Cy: Yna, fe ddaeth at wal heb lawer o le. En: Then, she came to a cramped wall. Cy: Roedd teimlad yng ngeiriau ei mam-gu pan fyddai'n defnyddio'r gair "dirgelwch" yn lliwio ei meddwl. En: The feeling in her grandma's words when using the word "mystery" colored her mind. Cy: Heb wybod beth i'w wneud yn gyntaf, dechreuodd gropio ei dwylo ar hyd y llech fechan. En: Not knowing what to do at first, she began groping her hands along the small slate. Cy: Ac yna, teimlai wthio bach o'r wal. En: And then, she felt a slight push of the wall. Cy: Dwylo Eira yn crynnu wrth iddi ddarganfod handlen wedi'i chuddio yn y pyst pren. En: Eira's hands trembled as they discovered a hidden handle in the wooden posts. Cy: Fe'i rhoiais, ac agorodd y rhan o'r wal yn sydyn, yn awgrymu byddarolch o wybren gafallog. En: She pulled it, and that section of the wall suddenly opened, revealing a muffled brush of a spectral sky. Cy: Ym mhen draw, roedd yn llyfrgell fechan dydi. En: At the far end, there was a quaint library. Cy: Llyfrau wedi'u rhydu gyda llwch a phapurau wedi pylu gyda'r olau. En: Books rusted with dust and papers faded with light. Cy: Ar y silff uchaf o'r dde, gwelodd hen ddyddiadur gyda chlustdlysau aur. En: On the top shelf to the right, she saw an old diary with golden clasps. Cy: Agorodd Eira'r llyfr, a'i ffilm troi'n goch. En: Eira opened the book, and its film turned red. Cy: Roedd y dyddiadur yn llawn straeon am brysurdeb ei teulu yn y gorffennol, cofion ei hen dad-cu am ddatblygiad y tŷ, ac ystyr y breuddwydion a ddaliodd ei hun byw. En: The diary was full of stories about her family's past activities, her great-grandfather's memories of the house's development, and the meaning of the dreams she herself had been experiencing. Cy: Pan ddaeth Eira allan o'r llyfrgell, llygadgar a chyffrous, rhuthrodd at ei theulu. En: When Eira emerged from the library, vigilant and excited, she rushed to her family. Cy: Drewodd pob detal o’r ei ffeindio gyda hi. En: She relayed every detail of her findings to them. Cy: "Edrychwch, dyma hanes ein teulu, ein tarddiad. En: "Look, here is the story of our family, our origin." Cy: " Y gwrandawodd pawb â theimladau newydd. En: Everyone listened with newfound feelings. Cy
