After spending nearly a week in Byzantium enjoying a brief vacation with his wife Honoria, Berengar returned home. His relationship with the Byzantine Princess was now better than ever. The results of this trip were fruitful. Not only had he eliminated a thorn in his side, but the German Emperor had also established an alliance with the Kingdom of Georgia.
While Georgia may not be a powerhouse in the region like the Byzantine Empire, it still allowed him greater access to trade in the East, as well as ensuring one less enemy who might act against him. Thus, when Berengar stepped foot in the door of his Palace, he had a satisfied expression on his face.
