That was granted to him at a high cost: the peace concluded in the camp of the Byzantine army on the Regina (Ergene) river bank in June 1256 gave Tzepaina to Theodore II Laskaris, even though the Nicaeans had not been able to conquer it. Besides George Akropolites, the details of the peace treaty are known from the emperor’s letter announcing the recuperation, without any battle, of strong fort of Tzepaina. The emperor’s letter describes the Bulgarian-Nicaean frontier as leaving Philippopolis and Sofia to Bulgaria, while the Vardar valley with the cities of Velbužd, Vrania and Skopion was now under Nicaean control. In reality, however, the region between Velbužd and Skopion was not occupied by the Nicaeans, but remained under Bulgarian authority until Serbia conquered it in 1282."

A poem composed in Adrianople around 1366, however, clearly indicates that the city was still in Byzantine hands at that time, so that 1369 now seems a more likely date"
