An Dòbhran/The Otter

Sgeulachdan à saoghal Gudrun, a’ Bhana-phrionnsa Lochlannach. Fhad ’s a tha Rìgh Sigurd a’ dèanamh norrag air an tràigh, tha Gudrun a’ feuchainn ri cleas a chluich air. Ach a h-uile turas a gheibh i faisg air, tha e a’ fosgladh a shùilean. Ciamar a bha fhios aige gu robh i ann? Mhothaich Gudrun gun robh an dòbhran a’ faighinn a fàileadh air a’ ghaoith agus thuig i gu robh a h-athair a’ faighinn fàileadh ceò na fèille bhon a’ chleòc aice.

The wild adventures of Gudrun the Viking Princess. While King Sigurd dozes on the beach, Gudrun plays a trick. But every time she gets close, he opens his eyes. How did he know she was there? It’s only when watching an otter sniff the breeze that Gudrun realises the smell of smoke from the longhouse fire has lingered on her cloak.
