Heinen Fardd
Celtic
Heinen Fardd appeared in Hanes Taliesin as the chief bard or poet of Maelgwn Gwynedd.
Young Taliesin challenged Maelgwn’s court bards, including Heinen Fardd, to save his foster father Elffin who was imprisoned for boasting about his wife’s beauty. Heinen Fardd was disgraced when he couldn’t even speak, because he was spellbound by Taliesin’s voice and poetry.
