Today we’re going to be looking at a piece of history that has been woven into the folkloric traditions of Llyn y Fan Fach / The Lady of the Lake, and finding out a little more about the (allegedly) half-fae sons of the Lady. Her sons are said to have birthed modern medicine in Cymru and these mystical beginnings have firmly solidified the Physicians place in our history.
