The French Arthurian Narratives really, really, really don't gel with Welsh Law.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
So basically:
Morgan would have just divorce Urien using any bullshit excuse, backed up by magic.
Lancelot would've just paid blood-money for damages done to Arthur and Gawain's kin. (Not that it would stop Gawain if Gareth - and specifically Gareth - is killed, but still)
Guinevere would have just been divorced, beaten and/or humiliated like Rhiannon, but death penalty would have been unnecessary and excessive, especially if Arthur's sympathetic to his wife.
Arthur and Guinevere could've initiated divorce anytime for any reason. Especially, when there's a seven-year time period of cohabitation that determines whether or not Gwen is entitled to half of Arthur's property. Childless!Guinevere really makes it even questionable that Guinevere could've kept her queenship past three years, much less seven.
So, all in all, the Arthurian story we know and love only works if its culturally the French High Middle Ages (12-13th Century)

Thinking about The Laws of Hywel Dda again, specifically the "if a hungry person passes through 3 towns without being fed, he cannot be charged with a crime if he steals food" part. This implies there is a societal obligation to feed the hungry that has to start at the most basic communal level.
For a modern Welsh state this is tantamount to suggesting that if the state has an obligation to uphold the law, it has an obligation to feed those in food poverty. From a legal standpoint it is unlawful and culturally offensive/insensitive for there to NOT be welfare systems in place that do this.
PLUS, it raises the question of waiving sentencing for shoplifting upon those who can prove they live in absolute poverty. A business or chain that attempts to prosecute or punish a shoplifter who specifically steals food to satisfy an immediate hunger need, is arguably practicing a culturally offensive/insensitive act.
If a company commits to punishing shoplifters like this, should they even be allowed to do business in the country, as it would be repeatedly failing to commit to both the law and the culture of the country?

I was trying to talk to someone but Hywel was hiding in a bush and pouting the entire conversation because Rann ( @arisenreborn ) took his spot

They sat together at camp though so no hard feelings I guess !

NAME: Chibach The Coal Chick Pokemon
TYPE: Fire ABILITY: Blaze (Powers up Fire-type moves when the Pokémon's HP is low.) HIDDEN ABILITY: Flame Body (Contact with the Pokémon may burn the attacker.)
EGG GROUP: Flying HEIGHT: 2'00" WEIGHT: 8.2 lbs
DESCRIPTION: This headstrong Pokémon is born yellow, but quickly become black with coal as they help miners with their work. They are honorable and brave by nature, only following a trainer who they deem pure of heart.
INFO: This Pokémon is based off a griffon! Its name comes from Chick + 'bach' (small in Welsh). Its concept comes from the phrase 'canary in a coalmine', as coal-mining is very important to Welsh history and economy.
