Eadwald was probably in exile during the oppressive reign of Offa as was Eadberht Praen of Kent . After the death of Offa of Mercia , who had ruled East Anglia directly since deposing and beheading its king later Saint Aethelberht Hereford Cathedral was dedicated to him in 796. East Anglia briefly strove for independence under Eadwald, but he was stopped by Ecgfrith of Mercia Ecgferth of Mercia son of Offa, ruled 796 only . Independence was then perhaps achieved after Ecgferths death, until the East Angles were reconquered by Coenwulf of Mercia in 798. Alternatively Eadwald may have been permitted his brief rule by Coenwulf of Mercia 796 821 . He died, or was at least deposed in 798. The Anglo Saxon Chronicle omits any mention of an East Anglian monarch for this period. Almost the only knowledge of Eadwald comes from coins inscribed with his name.
