In order to re-establish the Orbelian House’s authority, a brother of Smbat, Tarsaich enthroned young King Demetrius II (r. 1270–1289) on the Georgian throne. Demetrius also appointed Tarsaich as atabeg (tutor) of the Georgian lands.[1] The Orbelians survived the arrival of Timurids in the 1380s, Smbat, the last firm Orbelian ruler of Syunik chose the wrong side and, on the capture of his stronghold of Vorotnaberd in 1410, decamped for Georgia where he died. Around 1434/5, Alexander encouraged the Beshken II Orbelian to attack the Kara Koyunlu clansmen in Syunik and, for his victory, granted him Lori under terms of vassalage.
