Azarmidokht was shortly afterwards blinded and killed by Rostam, who restored Boran to the throne.[15][16] However, in the following year a revolt broke out in Ctesiphon; while the Iranian army was occupied with other matters, the Parsig, dissatisfied with the regency of Rostam, called for the overthrow of Boran and the return of the prominent Parsig figure Bahman Jadhuyih, who had been dismissed by her.[17] Boran was shortly killed, presumably from suffocation by Piruz Khosrow.[17] Hostilities were thus resumed between the two factions.[17] However, not long after both Rostam and Piruz Khosrow were threatened by their own men, who had become alarmed by the declining state of the country.[18] Rostam and Piruz Khosrow thus agreed to work together once more, installing Khosrow II's grandson Yazdegerd III on the throne, putting an end to the civil war.[18]
