Cardigan Cities Dykes Flooded Legend Lowland Opened Myth Sluices


EDITORS COMMENTS
Once upon a time, in the mythical land of South Wales, there existed a tranquil lowland known as Cardigan Bay. This idyllic expanse of land was home to a thriving community of sixteen cities, each teeming with vibrant life and prosperity. However, the peace was shattered by the actions of a turbulent figure from Welsh legend - Saethennyn, the druidic son of the King. Saethennyn, a man of immense power and unpredictable temperament, was known for his capricious nature. One day, in a fit of uncontrollable rage, he made the fateful decision to open the sluices of the dykes that held back the waters of the bay. In an instant, the land was flooded, and the once-thriving cities were submerged beneath the waves. The people of Cardigan Bay were left to mourn their lost homes and livelihoods, as the land they had known was transformed into a vast body of water. The legend of Saethennyn and his mad fit became a cautionary tale, a reminder of the destructive power of unchecked emotions and the capricious nature of the natural world. Today, the site of the former cities of Cardigan Bay is a popular tourist destination, a haunting reminder of a time long past. Visitors can still see the ruins of the ancient structures, now overgrown with moss and seaweed, and imagine the bustling streets and markets that once thrived there. The legend of Saethennyn and the flooding of Cardigan Bay is a testament to the enduring power of myth and history, a reminder of the past that continues to shape the present.
