Lore
Gwyllion are sinister mountain hags in Welsh folklore, old women who haunt high passes and moors. They lead travelers astray in fog or darkness using illusions or calls, carrying wooden staffs and embodying the perils of wild, remote Welsh landscapes— a warning to respect the mountains and avoid wandering alone at night.
