		Vseslav enjoyed popular sympathy; he was a swift-acting and successful military leader, flying from one place to another as if by sorcery and displaying valour and wit, and taking first Novgorod in the north and then Tmutarakan in the south.
		Vseslav is depicted as a grey wolf running from Kiev to the Black Sea in one night, a sorcerer hearing the Polotsk bells ringing in Kiev, or a lynx disappearing from a beseiged fortress at night.
		In Kiev Vseslav was kept in a special log cell with only a tiny window for food; the prison was built somewhere not far from the prince's courtyard reminding Kievans for a whole year of the perfidy of their Prince Izyaslav.
