Heart of the Void

Oh Heart of the Void
distant from Your Queen of Roses

Oh Heart of the Void
distant from Your Queen of Thorns

Oh Heart of the Void
distant from where the roses grow

Oh Heart of the Void
distant from where the thorn trees grow

A devotional song for Gwyn ap Nudd for the period when He lies dead / sleeping in His Castle of Cold Stone in the deepest reaches of Annwn in the depths of the Abyss.

Artwork by Morgannah based on my recent writings about the Heart of Annwn as the Sacred Heart of Gwyn.

Devotional Art – Gwyn by Morgannah

A couple of weeks ago I was delighted and honoured to receive this stunning piece of devotional art inspired by my representation of Gwyn in my King of Annwn Cycle books from one of my patrons, Morgannah. The dragon-scale shading around His eyes and the jewel in His forehead are based on my story about Him being born from the Dragon Mother, Anrhuna, His brief transformation into a black dragon when He eats His mother’s heart and His early days as ‘the Boy in the Serpent Skins’.
