Manawydan

Manawydan, Rhiannon, Pryderi, and Cigfa are all ruling over Dyfed, when magicly all the humans and pets just disappear. For four years they manage to live off what is left and eventually they go to Hereford. They become saddle makers but are so good that others want to kill them. Mawyden doesn't want to fight so he suggests they sneak away. They become sheild makers, and then shoe makers but it happened to them every time. they go hunting and Pryderi sees a golden bowl in a cave. she touches it and freezes in that position without the ability to speak. Manawydan goes home and tells her mother where Pryderi is and her mother goes and touches the bowl too. Manawydan and Cigfa travel to a new city and become shoe makers but again get chased off. Manawydan becomes a farmer and when the harvest was ready, he wakes up to no crops. It happens the next night too. and on the third night he watches. He sees thousands of mice stealing the wheat so he catches a pregnant one. He decides to hang it and a clerk tells him not to but he doesn't listen. A priest comes and Manawydan still doesn't listen. So next a bishop who offers anything in return. Manawydan wants his kingdfom back to normal and so he gets it and finds out the bishop turned people into mice to steal his crops.
