Summary
Supplements to the Four Branches of the Mabinogi from the perspectives of Rhiannon, Branwen, Cigfa, and Arianrhod, respectively. They each follow the plot of the story, but I'm more interested in communicating the voices of the women than having a plot that stands on its own, so they'll make a lot more sense if you've actually read the tales first, in any translation.
Originally posted as five separate works, but I've combined them because I generally prefer reading chaptered works rather than series.
