However, as Williams sees our lives being awash with digital information and this tale may soon be forgotten, he ensures them a worthy tribute by casting the duos\u2019 high heel footprints into brass and setting them into the pavement where the incident occurred, creating a lasting symbol against harassment and persecution.<br \/>\n<br \/>\n[\/lang_en]<\/p>\n<p>[lang_cy]<br \/>\n<strong>Lionheart &#038; Lightsout<\/strong><br \/>\nFfordd y Brenin<br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/williams\/williams7.jpg\" alt=\"williams\" title=\"williams\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/williams\/williams8.jpg\" alt=\"williams\" title=\"williams\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/williams\/williams9.jpg\" alt=\"williams\" title=\"williams\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530\" \/><br \/>\n<img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/locwsinternational.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/artworks\/williams\/williams6.jpg\" alt=\"williams\" title=\"williams\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-530\" \/><br \/>\nMae Bedwyr Williams yn coff\u00e1u stori oes ddigidol o&#8217;r ddinas sy&#8217;n ein hatgoffa am &#8216;Chwedl Caergaint&#8217; gyfoes: chwedl arwrol &#8216;Lionheart and Lightsout&#8217;, p\u00e2r o ymladdwyr cawell mewn drag am noson mas, a safodd eu tir yn wyneb adfyd a chamdriniaeth.<br \/>\nWedi&#8217;u cipio&#8217;n wreiddiol ar deledu cylch cyfyng, daeth camau&#8217;r ddeuawd yn boblogaidd ar y rhyngrwyd gyda miloedd o bobl yn gwylio&#8217;r clip ffilm byr.
