Vasilko slandered before the Prince of Kiev Svyatopolk Izyaslavich. At the end of the Congress, November 4, Vasilko received from Svjatopolka invitation to the birthday party. Vasilko went to Kiev. Along the way he met a young man, who told him: "Do not go, the prince, you want to grab". But Vasilko not believe him, reasoning: "As it wants to catch me?" After all, only that we swore on the cross, that we will, one after another? " And so deciding, came with a small retinue of prince's court. Here Vasilko locked up, shackled by the double shackles and put him imprisoned for the night. The next night he was moved from Kiev to Belgorod, and taken to a small hut.

He went Torchin named Berend with a knife in his hands, and struck Vasilko, took out his eyes. Then he struck a second time and took second. Vasilko lay at the time, like a corpse.

After he started the war with Davyd and drove him from Vladimir, was once again plotting against Volodar cornflowers and as anxious to recover the entire parish of the deceased brother. Volodar cornflowers and went to meet him, and met the two armies in the field of Rozhnov. Vasilko then lifted up his cross and Svyatopolk said: "He kissed you, when he swore me in love. And then taken away my eyes. But now you want to take more and my soul. Yes, this will be a cross between Us ". Shelves come together, and began a bitter battle.
