onthewillowsthere: (contemplation)

Galahad thinks of the only folklore he knows, which are the Welsh stories Percival used to tell him, of Manawydan and BrĂ¢n Fendigaidd, Lleu Llaw Gyffes, and his sister, Arianrhod, Taliesen the bard. These aren't what he means. There are house spirits, bwbachod and bwac, but these aren't what he means either -- he's thinking of something more powerful, though perhaps equally precise in scope.

He shakes his head, and then says, "Lan Wangji says there is a god here. He is sustained through belief, so Lan Wangji has made a shrine for him. I think the gods of this place must do the things they do here so we do not stop thinking about them."
