One night when he was coming home from gamboling he took a short cut through the fields. By doing this he had to go through a field of "Buachalans".<br>No sooner had he entered the field than he saw hundreds of fairies. They all spoke to him and said "Céad míle fáilte Romhat." (A hundred thousand welcomes) Then each pulled a "Buachalan" in turn and instantly the plants were changed into white horses. They told Tomas to do the same and so he did.<br>They ordered him to follow them and not to speak a word. He did as they told him until he came to "Carraig ltí Ghealaigh," a huge rock near Kilronan. Here he swore on oath that he would be killed, and as he broke the fairies command, the horse disappeared and he fell to the ground. There he was found the next morning by a passer-by“.` <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Celtic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Celtic</span></a><br>Source: <a href="https://emeraldisle.ie/the-buachalan-buidhe#_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://</span><span class="ellipsis">emeraldisle.ie/the-buachalan-b</span><span class="invisible">uidhe#_blank</span></a></p>

Here is the story, even as it was.' And Pwyll told it all to them.<br>'Aye, Lord,' said they ' thank God for giving you that friendship. And the lordship we had that year, I'm sure you won't take that away from us .'<br>'I will not take it away, between me and God'<br>And thenceforth a strong friendship began between them, each giving the other horses, greyhounds, hawks and any other kind of treasure he thought might me pleasing to the mind of his fellow[21]. And because of his sorjourn that year in Annwfn, and his kingship [which had been] so prosperous there, and the forging of two kingdoms into one through his resilience and his fighting-power: the name 'Pwyll Pendevic Dyfed' fell out of use and he became known as 'Pwyll Pen Annwvyn' from then on.` <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Celtic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Celtic</span></a><br>Source: <a href="https://www.mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

Arawn went towards his court in Annwfn and rejoiced on seeing his host and his household, having not seen them for [such] a long time. They, however, knew nothing of his absence and were no more surprised at his arrival than before. He passed that day with cheerfulness and merriment, sitting talking to his wife and his noblemen. When it became more timely to sleep than to carouse, [off] they went to bed.<br>He made for the bed, and his wife came with him. The first thing he did was talk with his wife and join in sensual pleasure and love-making with her. She had not been used to that for a year, and that is what she thought. 'O God,' she wondered 'what is the different mind that is in him tonight, [so different] from that which has been in him for the last year?' She lay in thought for a long time. After that, he woke up and tried speaking to her once, twice, and a third time. No answer could he get from her.<br>'Why won't you speak to me?'<br>'I tell you,' she replied 'for a year I have not spoken even so much anywhere like this.'<br>'Why,' said he 'we've been talking all the time.'<br>'Shame on me,' she replied '[but] for the last year, from whenever we were enfolded in bed clothes there has been no affection, no conversation, nor you even turning your face towards me: let alone anything other than which might have happened between us.'<br>Then he began thinking. 'Lord God,' he said to himself 'a uniquely strong and unwavering friend is the one with whom I have made [this] friendship.'<br>He then spoke to his wife: 'Lady,' he said 'You mustn't blame me. Between me and God, I haven't slept with you for a year since last night, nor have I laid down [here].' And he told her the whole story.<br>'By my confession to God,' said she 'a strong hold you have on your friend, for warding off bodily temptation, and keeping faith with you.'<br>'That was what I was thinking while I was silent with you.'<br>'No wonder,' she replied.[20]` <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Celtic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Celtic</span></a><br>Source: <a href="https://www.mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

The date of that night came as clearly to the memory of the farthest man in the land as it did to he himself. He went to the appointment, along with the nobles of the country. As soon as he came to the ford, a horseman rode up and spoke thus:<br>'Good men,' said he 'listen well. Between [these] two kings is this appointment, and that between their two persons [only]. Each one is a claimant against the other, over issues of land and territory. May all [the rest] of you stand back, and let [the fight] be between them [alone].'<br>At that the two kings closed in on one another to the middle of the ford for their encounter. At the first onslaught the king who was in the place of Arawn[15] struck Hafgan in the middle of the boss of his shield, so it split in two halves and all his armour was broken and Hafgan was a spear-and-arms length over the back of his horse and onto the ground, with a mortal wound upon him.<br>'Chieftain,' said Hafgan 'what right have you to my death?[16] I was not bringing any claim against you, I do not know why you are killing me either; but by God', he said 'since you have begun my death, finish it [now]!'<br>'Chieftain,' he replied 'it may be that I would regret doing what I did to you[17]. Find someone [else] to kill you; [but] I will not kill you.'[18]<br>'My faithful peers,' said Hafgan 'carry me away from here. The conclusion of my death is truly upon me. I am in no condition to uphold you any more.'<br>'Peers of mine' said the man who was in the place of Arawn 'take a reckoning[19], and find out those [out there] who owe me allegiance.'<br>'Lord, everybody owes you [allegiance], as there is [now] no other king in the whole of Annwfn but yourself.'<br>'Aye' said he '[for those] who come in peace, the reception will be just. Whoever does not come compliantly, let them be impelled by force of arms.' Then he took homage from the men, and began to take possession of the land, and by noon the next day both the two kingdoms were in his power. At that he made for his meeting place and came to Glyn Cuch. When he got there Arawn was awaiting him. Each greeted the other.<br>'Well,' said Arawn 'God repay you for your friendship. I have heard all about it.'<br>'Aye' he replied 'when you come yourself to your country you will see what I have done for you.'<br>'Whatever you have done for me, may God repay you.' <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Celtic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Celtic</span></a><br>Source: <a href="https://www.mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>

'There' he said 'the court and the country under your rule. Go to the court: there won't be anyone there who doesn't recognise you; and as you watch the service therein, you will learn the manners of the court.'<br>He approached the court, and in the court he could see sleeping quarters, halls, chambers with the most beautiful decoration on the buildings anyone had ever seen[12]. He went into the hall to pull off his boots. Retainers and servant-boys came up to pull off his boots, and everyone greeted him as they approached. Two knights removed his hunting-garb from around him, and clothed him in a garment of gold brocaded silk[13]. The hall was prepared. [Then] lo and behold - he saw the household and hostings coming inside - the most exalted and refined host anyone had ever seen. And behind them the queen - the most beautiful woman anyone had ever seen - a garment of shining gold brocaded silk was around her. At that they went to wash, and made for the tables and sat down in the following way: the queen on one side of him and the earl (as he supposed) on the other. And he began a conversation with the queen. From talking to her he could see that she was the most unassuming woman her had ever [met], and the most genteel in her manner and conversation. They passed the time with food and drink, singing and carousing. Of all the courts he had ever seen on this earth, here was the best with food and drink and gold vessels and royal jewels.<br>Time came for them to go to bed - and to bed they went, himself and the queen. The moment they got into to the bed, he turned his face to the side, with his back towards her. From then until the next day, he didn't say a single word to her. The next day there was tenderness and affectionate conversation between them. [But] whatever fondness there might have been between them during the day, there was not a single night that wasn't like the first[14].` <a href="https://hear-me.social/tags/Celtic" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Celtic</span></a><br>Source: <a href="https://www.mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="">mabinogi.net/pwyll.htm</span><span class="invisible"></span></a></p>
