Bernicia was then briefly ruled by Eanfrith, son of Aethelfrith, but after about a year he went to Cadwallon to plea for peace and was killed.

 The Heroic Age: Oswald and the Irish
The relationship between Oswald of Bernicia and the Irish kingdom of Dalriada (Dál Riata) is of critical importance to the understanding of his reign, and, indeed, to the history of seventh century Britain.
We know that the Ionan church had baptized Eanfrith but we do not have a good understanding of other ties between him and Eochaid's kindred since he was possibly given refuge in Pictland [36], although Eochaid was memorialized in the Annals of Ulster as the King of Picts.
Such reversions were common (Yorke 1999:161-162) but the Christian king of Dalriada would have viewed it more in a political context, a challenge to the overlordship he deserved in return for his protection of Eanfrith's kinsmen during their exile.
