#Dahut, the last pagan princess of #Brittany, was sait to have taken scores of young men to her bed, each for a single night of bliss. Afterwards every nightly visitor would put on a mask to retrace his steps unseen. But the mask would grow tighter and tighter until it squeezed the very breath out of the unfortunate young man, after which a servant would haul the body to an abyss between Huelgoat and Pualoauen.
