A small monastic outpost in 13th Century Wales is rocked to its
core when a gruesome discovery is made on the nearby shoreline: a
severed human head. It's the first of several to wash up along the
surrounding coast, and not long after, the holy brothers stumble
across the smouldering ruins of a bardic school with a pile of
decapitated bodies inside. Only one survivor, barely alive, is
found hiding nearby. He is Cian Brydydd Mawr, the greatest bard of
his age, who holds in his head the four `branches' of an ancient,
epic Welsh myth cycle: The Mabinogion. Physically weak but strong
willed, he asks the monks to put aside their rigid Christian
doctrine and commit his oral tales to parchment - before the
stories of spirits and shape-shifters, giants and time-travellers,
curses and spells, are lost forever...
