After the defeat at Orchomenus, Mithridates was devastated and his army had suffered serious casualties. However, his indomitable spirit was not broken and he decided to regroup and try again. Despite his adversities, he managed to gather a new army with the intention of recovering the lost ground.

In his second attempt, Mithridates led his troops in a series of campaigns in the region of Asia Minor, winning some initial victories and regaining the support of some cities that had remained neutral in the conflict. However, his advance was stopped once again by Roman forces led by Lucullus.

Although Mithridates showed bravery and strategy, Lucullus' numerical superiority and tactical skill tipped the balance against the king of Pontus. As defeats piled up, some of Mithridates' allies began to question his leadership and loyalty.

Among the discontented was Archelaus, a former general of Mithridates who had defected to the Roman side during the previous conflict. Archelaus, with his experience on both sides of the war, had earned the respect of the Romans and, in turn, had become a skilled strategist under Lucullus.

When news of the growing distrust of Mithridates reached Archelaus, he faced a difficult decision. Despite having defected, he still felt a bond with his former king and was grateful for the opportunity the Romans had given him. However, his loyalty to Mithridates began to fade as he saw the defeats and increasingly desperate situation in which he found himself.

Finally, Archelaus made a decision: he sought an audience with Mithridates to confront him directly. He expressed his concerns and disappointments, as well as his conviction that the king of Pontus needed to make drastic changes if he was to have any chance of success.

Mithridates, surprised by Archelaus's honesty and bravery, listened to his words carefully. Although he initially felt hurt and betrayed, he soon realized that his former general's words had genuine substance. He thanked Archelaus for his sincerity and asked him to stay by his side, offering him a second chance to serve in his army.

Together, Mithridates and Archelaus worked to reorganize the Pontic army and improve its tactics. They took advantage of the knowledge that Archelaus had acquired while serving on the Roman side and adapted some of his strategies. The relationship between the two was transformed, and trust began to slowly return.

With a revitalized army and new determination, Mithridates led his troops back onto the battlefield. This time, things were different. Although the victories were not easy, Mithridates and Archelaus managed to keep the Roman forces at bay and recover some of the lost positions.

The turn of events was notable, and some of the allies who had doubted Mithridates began to return to his side upon seeing his renewed strength and leadership. The relationship between Mithridates and Archelaus had transformed into a true friendship and alliance, based on mutual respect and shared determination.

Eventually, the war came to an end, and a truce with Rome was finally reached. Mithridates, having learned from his mistakes and with the invaluable help of Archelaus, managed to maintain his kingdom and avoid total defeat. Although the confrontations with Rome did not disappear completely, the Third Mithridatic War marked the beginning of a new era for Pontus.

Mithridates ruled the rest of his days wisely, and Archelaus became one of his closest advisors, always loyal and willing to provide his support. The friendship between the king of Pontus and the exile turned advisor remained a symbol of improvement and resilience in turbulent times.<end_of_turn><eos>
