==Last years== After the Battle of Kosovo, Vuk refused to become an Ottoman vassal (unlike prince [[Stefan Lazarević]], son of prince Lazar, who became an Ottoman vassal in late 1389) and started to plan anti-Ottoman action together with the Hungarian king Sigismund. However, Vuk was unable to resist the Ottomans for long. In 1392, they captured Skopje and forced Vuk to become their vassal and pay tribute. Even after that, Vuk showed some resistance to the Ottomans, refusing to participate on the Ottoman side in the battles of [[battle of Rovine|Rovine (1395)]] and [[battle of Nicopolis|Nicopolis (1396)]], unlike other Serbian lords such as prince Stefan, [[prince Marko]], and [[Konstantin Dejanović]]. He also maintained contacts with Hungary. Finally, the Ottomans ended this situation by attacking Vuk in 1395–96, seizing his land, and giving most of it to prince Stefan Lazarević, while Vuk himself was imprisoned and died in an Ottoman prison. A small part of Vuk's land with the towns of Priština and Vučitrn was given to his sons to hold as Ottoman vassals.<ref>{{harvnb|Fine|1994|pp=409–415}}</ref>
