We cannot even be entirely certain that Detina won, though since Detina was seemingly militarily hegemenous over their region, and had certainly gotten the better of the blonds, by the time of the civil war, it can be assumed that they won either the War of 1218 or a subsequent conflict in which they retook whatever they had lost.
