		In Welsh mythology, Manawydan, son of Llyr, is the equivalent of the Irish Manannan mac Lir and a presumed sea god.
		Manawydan and Cigva again were forced to try to make a living in England and again were driven away by jealour rivals.

		In the third branch of the Mabinogi, Manawydan and Pryderi and their wives Rhiannon and Cigfa, are living in the wilderness, since their country lies under enchantment, empty of men.
		Manawydan returns alone and tells his wife (and Pwyll’s mother) the story of the hunt; Rhiannon calls him a bad companion for abandoning Pwyll.
		Manawydan is offended and tells her in so many words that he is Pryderi’s companion- kedymdaeth- and would keep faith with him even if he was in the dawn of his youth; she has nothing to fear from him.
