"Gwyddom, Briallu."

"A gallwch chi ei werthfawrogi o hyd fel cyfres o straeon. Ydych chi'n deall, cariad?"

"Ond-...Iawn, Mam."

...

"We know, Primrose."

"And you can still appreciate it as a series of stories. Do you understand, love?"

"But-...Okay, Mom."

“Woe to the red dragon, for his banishment hasteneth on. His lurking holes shall be seized by the white dragon, which signifies the Saxons whom you invited over; but the red denotes the British nation, which shall be oppressed by the white. Therefore shall its mountains be levelled as the valleys, and the rivers of the valleys shall run with blood. The exercise of religion shall be destroyed, and churches be laid open to ruin." -- Historia Regum Britanniae, Geoffrey of Monmouth, Chapter 3, Page 13, https://www.yorku.ca/inpar/geoffrey_thompson.pdf.

According to https://www.uswitch.com/broadband/guides/broadband-history/, broadband was first installed in the UK in Basildon, Essex in 2000. Amanda was only ever homeschooled, & Linette taught fashion design online at this time. Carwyn *loves* math & science so he volunteered to homeschool her.

The Vale of Wales, Ch 14 PG 30; What I love about the kitchen magnets is that they all represent the 3 members of the Rhys Family in some way. One of the meanings of O.S. is the Great Orme Summit in North Wales; the date spot where Linnette & Carwyn fell in love <3

Fun Fact: Linette is working on a 'TL' computer. This stands for 'Tallis-Liore'. Tallis is a Persian name meaning 'Wisdom', and Liore is the name of a river in France. In our world, we have a technology brand named Hewlette-Packard. Hewlette is a male name meaning 'Intellect' and 'Packard' is another male name, meaning 'brook'.

Tallis-Liore is essentially the Hewlette-Packard of this universe; much like how the 'Relieve' mention from Chapter 12 is this universe's take on 'Aleve', the real-world pain reliever.

Seven chapters ago, I mentioned that there would be theological conversations in this comic. Conversations about biblical topics do appear in the coming pages, & I hope to portray each character in a reasonable, respectful way.

Also...

Annwyl Amanda, Penblwydd hapus! Cariad, Eich Cymdogion

Dear Amanda, Happy Birthday! Love, Your Neighbors
