Clarence A. Manning - MARKO, THE KINGS SON - Chapter III: Marko Goes To Court (2445 words)
When Vukashin had reigned sixteen years, and Urosh was twenty-seven years old, the young prince in despair went to his mother, the Empress Roxanda, and asked her for his father's heritage.
Vukashin and his brothers were the lords of the south and west, and each of them had done just what Urosh had done - sent a messenger to the Archpriest Nedelko.
Vukashin could not hope to overtake his fleeing son, but neither was there any refuge for Marko save to turn and meet his father in combat.
