- Ceallach to Emhyr var Emreis, defending his son Cahir in Gwent: The Witcher Card Game Audio version: Media:Ceallach voice line.ogg

Ceallach Dyffryn aep Gruffyd was the father of Cahir, a seneschal at the court of Emperor Emhyr var Emreis, and Lord of Darn Dyffra. He married Mawr who bore him six children: Aillil, Cahir, Dheran, and three daughters.

Biography

In July 1267, at Loc Grim Palace, the summer residence of the emperor, when Emhyr ordered spymaster Vattier de Rideaux and Stefan Skellen to capture Cahir due to his "treason", Ceallach tried to ask for mercy for his son to the emperor. The latter, however, didn't listen to him, stating that traitors must be punished.

Notes

• The Gwent: The Witcher Card Game infobox image incorrectly depicts Cahir being present with his father at Loc Grim during his condemnation by Emhyr, despite him never being there during that scene in the novels.
