His reign lasted for ten years in which his son [[Minalcar]] continued his function as Regent (a function he had held previously during [[Narmacil]]'s reign). It therefore would seem he never held (nor, perhaps, desired) any actual power.

In 1304 he died and was succeeded by Minalcar, taking the name [[Rómendacil II]].
