An excerpt from the old Georgian text of Kartlis Cxovreba:

კუალად შემოიქცა ბასილი, მოვიდა ბასიანს, ითხოვდა ქუეყანათა და ციხეთა, და აღუთქმიდა ზავსა და მშჳდობასა. ცნა რა გიორგი მეფემან, წარავლინა ზჳადი ერის-თავი სპითა მისითა და უბრძანა, რათა[მცა] ზავის მიპყრობითა მცირედ-ხან დაიმჭირვა ადგილსა, და თჳთ წარუდგა უკანა სპითა ძლიერითა. და განიზრახვიდა ესრეთ: "უკეთუ ინებოს ზავი ბასილი მეფემან, იქმნეს ესრეთ; და უკეთუ ინებოს ომი, განვემზადნეთ მისთჳს-ცა". ხოლო რომელთა არა უნდა ყოფად მშჳდობისა, იწყეს განმზადებად ბრძოლად და მივიდეს ბასილი მეფესა ზედა დაბანაკებულსა, რომელსა უწოდიან სჳნდაქსად... და ვითარ გაგრძელდა მათ შორის ბრძოლა, კუალად-ცა მეოტ იქმნნეს სპანი ქართველთანი და წარმოვიდეს მეოტად, მოისრნეს ურიცხუნი პირითა მახჳლისათა.
