The Albanians were victorious, but Ballaban captured thirteen of their high-ranking generals, among them Moisi Arianit Golemi of Dibra, Skanderbeg's second-in-command and the organizer of his desertion from the Ottoman Court and subsequent return to Albania.,[2] along with two of Gjergj Kastrioti's nephews.
Ballaban received further help from the Sultan and was sent leading Ottoman Armies against Skanderbeg once more, alongside an Albanian Pasha called Jakub Bej Arnauti, this time near Upper Dibra, in the Valley of Vaikal, but Ballaban, Jakub Bej Arnauti, and Ottoman Armies were again defeated.
Mark identified with Skanderbeg's cause and he became sworn brothers ("vllam", a widespread practice among Albanians at the time)[7] with Muzak Stresi, the Lord of Shkodër.
Ballban Badera later returned to Albania as a commanding general of the army under Mehmet II during the Second Siege of Krujë (1466), where he kept the city besieged for just under a year.
In that battle, Ballaban Badera was killed by an arquebus shot to the neck by Gjergj Aleksi, a defender of the city and a hunter in his civilian life.
