He began the path with the renounciation of Christianity and the adoptian of a "military cult", as well as the adoption of a new nickname, Mokhtsur. After the start of the rebellion, an active hunt of members of the royal house began, as a result of which only two members of the Sado-Orsoy dynasty survived: Khour I, his son Chakh, as well as Ors.
