 Power Is - Ch 6
Meirionnydd flinched as Anck-Su-Namun leaned down to look into her eyes.  There she saw the reflection of something dark, an echo of the power that she’d been forced to use to raise the creature.
Meirionnydd looked up into a face full of hatred and rage.  She saw nothing but the desire for power and killing in his dark eyes.  He raised his blade to strike again and Meirionnydd raised her hands to cover her head in self defence, expecting the killing blow any second.
Meirionnydd almost couldn’t breathe and her heart beat so fiercely in her chest she thought it would burst.  She glanced over her shoulder to see the Tuareg warrior merely feet away from her.  He had only to reach down and he would have her.

 Power Is - Ch 5
Meirionnydd looked up nervously as they entered the tent, afraid that they’d come for her.  She backed away slightly and almost tripped over Rashid, who reached up his uninjured arm in reflex, to steady her.  She looked at him, and his eyes told her that he would do what he could for her.
At the mention of Meirionnydd, his eyes flew open.  He knew this was what Anck-Su-Namun had intended, but he could not, and would not allow his cowardice to harm the girl in any way.  “If you harm her, I will kill you,” he growled.
Meirionnydd opened her eyes and reached up a shaking hand to his face to touch the tattoos on his cheeks.

Following the capture of Gruffudd ap Cynan around 1088 they built defensive structures to administer the Welsh territorial infra-structure, generally one in the Maerdref (administrative township) of each Cantref or Cwmwd.
Modern Meirionnydd now includes the Cantref of Ardudwy, north of the Mawddach.
The ancient Cantref of Meirionnydd, however, lay between the Mawddach and the Dyfi: Tomen Ddreiniog, commanding the crossing of the Dysynni, could well have become its administrative centre.
