Although Juleios and Archita were not present, Turii's victory celebration was still held. The entire city temporarily suppressed their sorrow and celebrated this hard-won victory.
The banquet hosted by the generals lasted until late at night. Ansitanos, who didn't know how many jugs of wine he drank, slept until the sun was high in the sky. By the time he left the city, it was almost noon. When he arrived at Juleios' empty camp, he was stunned. Fortunately, they found the Tarantine reinforcements still stationed at the mercenary camp and learned that all the mercenaries had gone to Amendolara.
The mercenaries had captured the city of Amendolara! This shocking news left Ansitanos and Bourkos astonished once again.
The group immediately accelerated their march northward, eager to meet Juleios. Halfway there, Ansitanos suddenly halted the team.
"We must return immediately."
"Why is that, General?" Bourkos asked in confusion.
