"A new age began, of Welsh rule under the Gryphon. To celebrate this new alliance, Afon, princess of the Llew married Gwalchgwyn prince of the Brynwi. The druids of the conjoined tribes said that the power of the Gryphon was in the two forces united and balanced within it; the wisdom and all seeing eye of the eagle and strength and courage of the lion. They prophesied that as long as the Gryphon remained at Gwydr, Gwydr would flourish. But in time the unseen forces of the universe weakened and threatened Gwydr, the prophecy came true, the balance was lost and the Gryphon departed. Gwydr for a while fell into decay." In The Orkney story of Assipattle, the Serpent queen suppressed by men, is finally restored to save the earth. In the final story the mystery of why the grave of King Arthur, King of The Britons, was never found, is revealed.
