The king, despite the opposition of some nobles, set off with his army and defeated the Seljuks in Rakhsi.
King David IV got into the habit of going to Abkhazia and the Seljuks were wintering near the banks of Mtkvari. David first moved to Geguti, and from there to Khupati. The Seljuks found out how far it was, they camped at Botora. The Seljuks were many and they set up camps to spend the winter.
