"To my lullaby surrender Warm and tender is my breast Mother's arms with love caressing Lay their blessing on your rest Nothing shall tonight alarm you None shall harm you have no fear Lie contented calmly slumber On your mother's breast my dear... Here tonight I tightly hold you And enfold you while you sleep Why I wonder are you smiling Smiling in your slumber deep Are the angels on you smiling And beguiling you with charm While you also smile my blossom In my bosom soft and warm... Have no fear now leaves are knocking Gently knocking at our door Have no fear now waves are beating Gently beating on the shore Sleep my darling none shall harm you Nor alarm you never cry In my bosom sweetly smiling And beguiling those on high Sleep my darling none shall harm you now..."

"I left the town and wandered on Through fields all green and gay And whom shall I meet but a cailín sweet At the dawning of the day... No cap or cloak this maiden wore Her neck and feet were bare Down to the ground in ringlets fell her glossy golden hair A milking pail was in her hand She was lovely young and gay She wore the palm from Venus bright By the dawning of the day... On a mossy bank, I sat me down With the maiden by my side With gentle word he courted her Asked her to be his bride..."

Faithful love! Your love doesn’t come across just in your words…you express it in every look, every gentle gesture, every reassuring smile, and every time you tell your partner, “I am here for you”. Your heart is brimming with love all the time, and sharing that affection gives you just as much joy as it does to the one receiving it.

Dallben saw nobles in among bodies, despite there being no nobles in the Free Commots, because after the attacks and raids on the Hill Cantrev where Craddoc lived, the people of Heddwch opened their homes to those who wished to stay with them while finding somewhere else to go or rebuilding their own homes. The nobles killed were mostly the ones that took up the generous offer. Others had seen the attackers coming and run to warn the people of Heddwch. They shared the fate of their Commot friends.

But they were nonetheless grieved listening to how their son was ashamed of his birth, and by extension, of them.

She and Elyan then protected him and Gurgi until the Fair Folk arrived, knowing there was nothing they could do for Craddoc.

Taran’s doubt about Craddoc telling him the ‘truth’ came just as much from his spiritual connection to his mother as it did from his desire to be nobly born.
