My wife's sister-in-law is a direct descendant of Cerdic, King of the West Saxons, who lived around this time. Is he one of the people you mention, the spelling is unfamiliar to me.

I am also descended from Cerdic.

Ceredig, Coroticus, Cerdic, and Ceretic are all variations on the same Brythonic name. Cerdic of Wessex may in fact have been half Brythonic, or more! I do plan on writing on him sometime in the future, he's a fascinating figure!

Great article - more insight into such a tumultuous time period filled with mythic lays and historical annals.

I was wondering, where do you get your artwork? Are they done by your own hand?

Thank you friend.

They are a mix of midjourney for the basis and the rest is painted in photoshop.
