Mae stori am long angheuol sy'n ymddangos yn y niwl yn ystod yr hydref. Stori am ysbrydion."En: "But you should be careful. There's a story about a ghost ship that appears in the fog during the autumn. A story about spirits."Cy: Cawodd gwynt cryf chwipio trwy'r dock, yn...lonni na ddylech fynd yno.En: A strong wind whipped through the dock, warning that they shouldn't go there.Cy: Ond, yn erbyn cyngor Emrys, penderfynodd Rhiannon ymddiried yn Gareth a mynd allan gyda'r hwyr.En: But, against Emrys' advice, Rhiannon decided to trust Gareth and venture out late.Cy: Roedd hi'n gwybod nad oedd hi ar unwaith gyda chyfle arall i ganfod gwirionedd y goleuadau.En: She knew she wouldn't instantly have another chance to uncover the truth about the lights.Cy: Wrth iddynt cyrraedd yr hen pier, daeth y goleuadau'n manylu i lawr atynt.En: As they reached the old pier, the lights cast down upon them.Cy: Sioc ohonynt i gyd wrth i lawr y dociau agor i ddatgelu coridor cudd.En: They were all shocked as the dock floor opened to reveal a hidden corridor.Cy: Y trio aeth ymlaen fel petai wedi'i fwyn adfer optiaeth newydd.En: The trio moved forward as if they had been newly equipped with restored vision.Cy: Wrth iddynt waeddi'r goleuadau curo gan y golau, roedd hyn o'r gwirion oedd y bu drws y cyfrinach allweddol roddir bywyd newydd i chwedlau lleol – dosbarth y rhifau a chymdeithas forwrol, gestrancedig nac angofiedig y gordd.En: As their voices echoed beneath the lights, this was the truth that the secret door had given new life to local tales—a class of numbers and seafaring society, estranged and not forgotten by the hammer.Cy: Yn y chwib gan gorn, gwnaed i Rhiannon deimlai mewn newyddder.En: In the whistle of the horn, Rhiannon felt a sense of renewal.Cy: Byddai hi byth yn methu cyfoeth tresadwyaeth ei theulu.En: She would never fail to appreciate the richness of her family's heritage.Cy: Bellach, wedi dod o hyd i'r cyfrinach gyda datrysiadau newydd i'w diwylliant o'i ffrindiau, roedd ai gyd fforddau mewnhen i datblygu ymdeimlad o ymffrost a chysylltiad ei heniau gyda'i gwreiddiau – yn cryfhau ei hymddiriedaeth a hyd yn oed wedi casáu yn credu pwy oedd hi.En: Now, having discovered the secret with new solutions for her culture from her friends, all the ways seemed to develop a sense of pride and connection between her ancestry and her roots—strengthening her trust and even defying belief in who she was.Cy: Gyda'r darganfyddiadau hynny yn chwedl newydd, gwyntodd Rhiannon fel pe bai hi'n ei gweld ei hun o'r peth mwyaf sydd bob dydd o'u bywyd.En: With those discoveries in a new legend, Rhiannon felt as if she had seen herself as the greatest thing in every day of their life.Cy: Roedd diolch yn teimlo'n gyfan.En: Gratitude felt whole.Cy: Roedd y niwl yn cilio, yn gadael ond ei symudiad afterward, ond roedd hulo am genedlaethol wedi'blino'n reit o fewnohyn o glosra.En: The fog receded, leaving only its motion afterward, but a sense of national pride had tired rightly within her closeness.
