The Chronicles of Prydain: The Book of Three
ScottA for Medwyn
A mysterious old man who lives alone in the mountains, in a valley that provides safe haven for the animals of Prydain. A mythological figure, gentle, calm, and full of deep wisdom.
Ideally looking for a very baritone or bass voice. Medwyn's ethnicity is ambiguous but there are connections to the Hebraic Noah. An African tonal quality could be appropriate.
Caer Dallben = CARE DAHL-ben
Taran = TAH-ran, or literally like the word "tar" and then "un"
From these creatures, your lives were never in danger. But you must leave this place. It is not an abode for men.
I have watched the race of men, and seen that alone you stand as weak reeds by a lake. Are you not, all of you, lame ants?
You search what you know not of. For the thing that you are seeking to find is not the thing that you are truly searching for. Yet, in time you will learn that in seeking you shall find, Taran of Caer Dallben. And in finding, there is great reward.
