#Celtic #Folklore: The city of #Ys in the Baie de Douarnenez could not stand against the elemental force of the sea. Supposedly King #Gradlon's daughter #Dahut, the last pagan princess of #Brittany, was responsible. The daughter of the mermaid #Malgven `was sait to have taken scores of young men to her bed, each for a single night of bliss. She then killed them & had theit bodies tossed over a cliff into the roaring sea or buried in a so called `purpose-built` pit in a bog. Her hair is said to have been the color of fire.` Patricia Monaghan
