 Menw attempts to retrieve one of the boar's trinkets but is poisoned in the process and was thereafter never completely without injury.He also plays a part in the hunt proper, chasing the boar into the Severn alongside Mabon ap Modron and Goreu fab Custennin.Later Menw appears in the tale "Breuddwyd Rhonabwy" as one of Arthur's chief councillors, and is also mentioned in a poem by fourteenth century bard Dafydd ap Gwilym
