An old poet from Caernarfon, when shown the text, laughed darkly. “That’s no code,” he said. “It’s a spell broken. ‘Thmyl’ is a mishearing of ‘thymial’ — thimble. ‘Fyd myt’ — ‘my foot’ in a dialect dead four centuries. ‘Asdar’ — as in ‘as darllen’ — ‘for reading aloud’. And 261 steps from the old Llandrwyd well to the yew tree.” thmyl-fyd-myt-asdar-261-llandrwyd

The village of Llandrwyd hadn’t appeared on any map since before the Great War. Folklore said it had been “un-made” — erased not by conquest, but by forgetting. Yet here was its name, bound to numbers and strange syllables. ‘Thmyl’ is a mishearing of ‘thymial’ — thimble

This looks like a coded or structured string: "thmyl-fyd-myt-asdar-261-llandrwyd" . And 261 steps from the old Llandrwyd well to the yew tree

261 — a grid reference? A page number? A year (AD 261, when Rome was crumbling and British tribes whispered old names)?
