He becomes angery and forms a band of his own. he refuse to give up the land that he feels is rightfully his. He becomes a Heor and a leged of his time. someone who fought hard for what he thppught was right who tired with all his might to not give up his land. In the end the great warrior is forced to leave the land he once called home. His story is a sad one that we can all learn from.
