Ag bun an Aille Mhóire, bhí Niamh.

At the foot of the Great Cliffs stood Niamh.

Bhí an ghrian ag taitneamh ar an bhfarraige thíos, agus bhí an ghaoth ag séideadh go bog trína cuid gruaige.

The sun was shining on the sea below, and the wind was gently blowing through her hair.

Bhí sí ag iarraidh an grianghraf foirfe a ghlacadh, ach bhí an radharc chomh mór agus chomh hálainn.

She was trying to capture the perfect photograph, but the view was so vast and beautiful.

Bhraith sí beagáinín imníoch faoina cuid scileanna.

She felt a bit anxious about her skills.

Bhí sí ag lorg teagmhála daonna freisin, duine a d'fhéadfadh í a thaispeáint conas an tírraon draíochtúil seo a thuiscint níos fearr.

She was also seeking human connection, someone who could help her understand this magical landscape better.

Timpeall uirthi, bhí turasóirí ag baint taitnimh as an radharc.

Around her, tourists were enjoying the view.

Ina measc bhí Cillian, scéalaí áitiúil agus scoláire ar an bhéaloideas Éireannach.

Among them was Cillian, a local storyteller and scholar of Irish folklore.

Bhí sé ag insint scéal do ghrúpa beag daoine.

He was telling a story to a small group of people.

Tharraing a ghuth suaimhneach aire Niamh.

His soothing voice caught Niamh's attention.

Ba léir go raibh grá aige don áit agus dá cultúr.

It was clear he loved the place and its culture.

Shocraigh Niamh a bheith cróga.

Niamh decided to be brave.

"D'fhéadfainn teacht leat ar an siúlóid?

"Could I join you on the walk?"

" a d’fhiafraigh sí go cúin.

she quietly asked.

Gáire geal ar aghaidh Cillian.

A bright smile appeared on Cillian's face.

"Ar ndóigh, go mbeadh fáilte romhat!

"Of course, you'd be most welcome!

Is áilleacht í an áit seo.

This place is a beauty."

"Le chéile, shiúil siad feadh imill na haille.

Together, they walked along the edges of the cliffs.

Roinn Cillian scéalta faoi na créatúir mistéireacha a dúirt sé go bhfolmhódh go ciúin laistigh de na haille.

Cillian shared stories of the mysterious creatures that he said quietly dwelled within the cliffs.

Bhí súile Niamh mór le hiontas agus ionadh.

Niamh's eyes were wide with wonder and awe.

Bhí sí sáite ina chuid focal, gach scéal ag cur dathanna nua lena híomhá den áit.

She was captivated by his words, each story adding new colors to her image of the place.

Go tobann, d'iompaigh an spéir dorcha agus thosaigh báisteach mhear.

Suddenly, the sky turned dark and a sudden rain began.

Lorg siad foscadh faoi charn carraigeacha móra.

They sought shelter under a heap of large rocks.

Cuir gach rud a d'ionsaigh an bháisteach draíocht agus mothúchán leis an scéal a bhí ag Cillian ag insint faoin gcreatúr fabhúil ina gcónaí sna haillte.

Everything the rain touched added magic and emotion to the story Cillian was telling about the fabulous creature living in the cliffs.

Nuair a stad an bháisteach, bhí an seachrán sin ann i gcónaí i Niamh.

When the rain stopped, that enchantment remained with Niamh.

Thóg sí an grianghraf a bhí á fhiosrú aici.

She took the photograph she had been contemplating.

Bhí a fhios aici go bhfuil rud éigin speisialta ann anois, rud a chuirfeadh an draíocht i bhfolach ar na haillte ar taispeáint.

She knew there was something special there now, something that would reveal the hidden magic of the cliffs.

Bhí an ghabháil foirfe, an oiread sin áit agus cultúr.

The capture was perfect, so much place and culture.

Go hálainn agus deacair.

Beautiful and challenging.

Bhí a muinín ag ardú.

Her confidence was rising.

Ag slánú Cillian, mhalartaigh siad uimhreacha teagmhála, geallúintí á n-aithris chun bualadh le chéile.

Saying goodbye to Cillian, they exchanged contact numbers, repeating promises to meet again.

Bhraith an domhan, go tobann, níos lú.

The world suddenly felt smaller.

Scríobh Niamh sa solas nua, an chroí Éireannach ann.

Niamh wrote in the new light, her heart touched by Ireland.

Cillian féin mothú naisc.

Cillian felt a connection too.

Bhí sé ag tnúth le tuilleadh scéalta a insint di sa todhchaí.

He looked forward to telling her more stories in the future.

D'imigh an lá anall, grian ar ais.

As the day drew to a close, the sun returned.

Bhí Niamh anois bolder, níos muiníní.

Niamh was now bolder, more confident.

Bhí a fhios aici gur thosaigh an chaibidil nua saoil seo ann - le Cillian, le pictiúir, agus le grá úr don tírdhreach láidir, a bhí idir lámhaibh s'ar son.

She knew that this new chapter of her life had begun there—with Cillian, with pictures, and with a newfound love for the rugged landscape that lay in her hands.
