"Alas," said they, "what is the mountain that is seen by the side of the ships?"
"Bran the Blessed, my brother," Branwen replied, "coming to shoal water [to rescue me]; there is no ship that can contain him in it."
"What is the lofty ridge with the lake on each side thereof?"
"On looking towards this island he is wroth, and his two eyes, one on each side of his nose, are the two lakes beside the ridge."
- The Mabinogion

Score! As a child I always loved a book friends of my parent’s had. I always wanted to find it, but couldn’t remember the title. But now, so many years later, I, quite by chance, found it, and it arrived today! ”Faeries” by Brian Froud and Alan Lee.

One of the most beautiful women in Welsh folklore was Princess Olwen, daughter of Ysbaddaden, king of the giants. Her hair was yellower than the broom plant, and gorgeous white flowers sprung up in her footprints. King Arthur helped Prince Culhwch woo Olwen.

In medieval Welsh legends, fairies look human, and aren't treated as nonhuman by human characters or collectively referred to by any general term (such as "fairy" or "Tylwyth Teg"). It's just implied that maybe these mysterious people with inexplicable magic aren't quite normal.

Myrddin the Wild was an alleged 6th-century British prophet who inspired the Merlin legend. He was traumatized by the Battle of Arfderydd, and fled into the Caledonian Forest to become a hermit. Later, his sister Gwenddydd built a house for him there with 70 doors and 70 windows.

The weirdest Welsh Arthurian legend is "The Dream of Rhonabwy." A man in a rotting house dreams he meets an insane King Arthur who insults his size, and then Arthur plays a board game with his knight Owain while their vassals (both humans and ravens) slaughter each other.
