Later, when falsely accused of causing the disappearance of her son, she accepts a humiliating penance imposed upon her, yet the narrative does not reduce her to that humiliation. She remains Rhiannon. \u003cspan class=\"contents\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eModern interpretations often speak of Rhiannon in terms of sovereignty, beauty or feminine power.
