When Alexios heard of the defeat of Ioannes, son of the sebastokrator, he began a swift campaign to rebuild ruined castles and exact reprisals on Bolkanos; but he stopped at Daphnoution (near the capital), waiting for family members. Nikephoros Diogenes, son of Romanos IV, soon joined Alexios, in his usual mixture of moods. He pitched his tent not in the usual spot but close to the slope leading up to Alexios' tent.
