Somewhere beneath Cardigan Bay, the bells are still ringing. Cantre'r Gwaelod, the drowned kingdom of Welsh legend, was a fertile land protected from the sea by great sluice gates. One night, the gates were left open, and the sea swallowed everything whole. On quiet evenings, so the story goes, you can still hear the bells of its sunken churches calling out beneath the waves. Some losses echo for a very long time. 🔔

The Gwragedd Annwn are Welsh lake maidens. Women of the Otherworld. Beautiful, gentle, dangerous to lose.
They rise from hidden lakes. Marry mortal men. Teach healing secrets. Then vanish if sacred promises are broken.
Perhaps they became the first Lady of the Lake. 🌿✨
