Aslıhan!
Yes, Father.
I see you are distracted, my daughter. What's on your mind?
Ertuğrul Bey.
Today, he saved an old slave who was about to die, Father.
He did it by cutting back on the bread that his village folk needed.
What are you trying to say, daughter?
I believe we have lost our compassion for quite some time now.
Did you find an answer Aslıhan Hatun?
I did Çolpan Hatun. I did.
When we went after gold and not valor...
that is the day we lost.
What was the matter you wanted to discuss, Father?
Leave us, Çolpan!
You stay, Aslıhan.
Father!
Çolpan is my wife. She does not deserve this treatment.
I have things to attend to, Ural Bey.
With your permission.
Because of the embarrassing situation you put me in today,
I have seen it fit to take certain precautions.
You still believe the words of that coward?
You know exactly what I am going to say, Ural.
What I will tell you, you already know.
Toktamış!
Toktamış?
Toktamış!
No!
Brother? Are you all right?
If not for my armor I would have died, Marina.
I'd have suffered eternally in Heaven for not fulfilling my duty.
Sultan Alaeddin's spy got away.
We saw that he was not alone and that we are surrounded by traitors.
Did you see their faces? I didn't.
We saw not their faces, but what they are capable of.
Even that is an important gain for us.
But the knight got away.
Don't worry. I got him.
He won't make it with that arrow wound.
You are my angel, Maria.
Are you all right, my bey?
I'm fine, Turgut. I'm fine.
The devil Tristan crushed him hard, my bey.
This is not his doing, Turgut.
He just finished him off.
If they'd got all the information out of the spy, we might have been saved.
These spies are not easy to swallow.
They stick to your throat.
They did this because he didn't talk.
So, our secret is still a secret.
Agreed, my bey.
Bismillah.
What is that mark, my bey?
It's the name of our enemy.
Who, my bey?
John the Baptist.
God Almighty! I am your servant, John the Baptist.
Loyal servant of Jesus.
I will be your son, Jesus' slave, on my holy pilgrimage.
I will take Jerusalem, the holy land of our Virgin Mary, from the Muslims.
I will rebuild Solomon's Temple.
And Simon swore an oath to Jesus.
My God, I will walk through dungeons and die with you.
CAVDAR CAMP
Step aside!
Who did this? Who? How could they?
Who did this?
Don't let Toktamış Bey's death be in vain!
What have they done to Toktamış?
-Who? -They will pay!
His death won't be in vain! Don't let Toktamış Bey's death be in vain!
Don't!
What a shame!
Shut your mouths!
Valiant warriors of the prairie!
Bronze hearted lions of the Tatars!
Last night...
this infidel, who treacherously attacked...
our bey, our village...
and its sons, has gotten
what he deserved.
While our Cavdar Bey fights heart and soul so that our empire may grow,
our empire may prosper and become more fruitful, this dog...
tried to stab him in the back.
He who attacks our Candar Bey's marquee
will die a horrible death.
This dog that attacked Candar Bey will hang here to set an example.
Enemies of our people will see their fate in his eyes.
When jackals ambushed me in the caves of the prairie...
he gave everything he had.
We swore to be blood brothers in the shadow of great sycamores.
We warded off Azrael in many a battle.
I went on to wage war...
leaving my wife and kids in his care.
How could he...
betray me like this?
Give me your hands, Father.
They say you were born in sin.
I wish the ground had broken and the sky had fallen, just so this wouldn't happen.
This betrayal as I am getting ready to part with this world...
has taken away all my life, my dear.
Toktamış would have done this for a reason, Father.
We need to figure out what that was.
I would give my life to know what it was, my valiant daughter.
My life!
I wish you hadn't left that body out, my bey.
A bey...
should know how to hit three birds with one stone.
Toktamış's death will make them rise up.
Now...
your father...
will also learn to give in.
He will not trust anyone but himself and I.
Simon.
If he reveals your secret one day...
Then we will know to introduce him to Azrael too.
My Çolpan, why do you worry yourself with this?
I have no worries with you by my side.
But something inside me says the corpse shouldn't be on display.
Tell that blind devil that so worries you...
that I will take out his other eye.
Any word on the kilims?
I had the best kilims, the finest rugs ordered for you.
I will play those Venetian infidels so that...
they'll place sacks of gold in my palm without question.
And I will lay the gold out in front of my father to see.
Then he will forget about Toktamış.
Let us not leave Candar Bey alone, mourning for Toktamış.
-Come with me to the marketplace. -I would like that.
I also have things to buy.
Let me tend to your wound.
Father.
I sent for my brother, Aliyar, without your permission.
I miss him.
You're like your mother, Aslıhan.
You're always up to something.
The people need my brother, Aliyar.
Aliyar is now a Tatar who has lost his warrior spirit.
They say he who wields a pen can no longer wield a sword.
-Are the kilims ready? -They are, my bey.
-Çolpan Hatun prepared them all. -Aslıhan will go with you.
Çolpan Hatun was going to assist, my bey.
Didn't you hear Candar Bey, Ural?
It's apparent that my father wishes me to be by his side.
If the Venetians ask anything about the kilims,
Aslıhan should be with you.
After all, as a woman she knows more about kilims than you.
KAYI CAMP
No, Artuk Bey, this won't do. We have been up against difficulties for so long now.
We did as Ertuğrul Bey commanded. However, he has forgotten Oghuz law.
Artuk Bey is right, my bey. What is this denial of assembly?
We would die for our bey, Artuk Bey.
But as it is the right of the beys to ask for an assembly,
it is the duty of the bey of the camp to accept it.
Ertuğrul Bey has disregarded the law as he has disregarded us.
Valiant Beys of the Kayi, foremost of our boys,
what you say is true.
It is. However, hear me out too.
I know you all want what's good for the camp
and worry about the future of your children, your tent.
It is true that our camp is going through rough times.
However, God Almighty says in the Quran,
"There is comfort after those difficulties."
Not a day has passed without worry and difficulty
since we left for these lands.
It seems our fate will continue to be so.
However, know that we are not to blame for this.
The sword cannot be forged without being beaten.
These sorrows will make us stronger.
But know that the biggest of sorrows is bestowed upon our Bey.
While we cannot even deal with our own problems and give up,
he is up against the difficulties of the whole camp.
His refusal of the assembly request just shows how big that difficulty is.
In the end, we know that weapons need men.
Men need states, states need rulers.
And rulers need laws.
-True. -True.
That's true, Artuk Bey.
Law is the heart of the state.
Without law, the state is a lifeless body.
Just as a state cannot live without law, a beylik cannot either.
You know that the mountain holds up the land.
And the bey holds up the camp.
Our bey knows this best.
Ertuğrul Bey will hold the assembly soon and do his part, God willing.
-God willing. -God willing.
What's the situation?
These goods are not worth the ride to the marketplace.
So it's bad.
How are we to persuade these people at war if we can't persuade them to trade kilim?
Ertuğrul must return to the camp at once.
Artuk Bey is coming with the people. I hope it's good news.
It wasn't about the kilims, Hayme Hatun.
They resented our bey not organizing the assembly.
How sensitive the Kayi camp has gotten.
You can't organize a wedding ceremony with them, let alone an assembly.
Brother!
Thank god you got back safe. How was the hunt?
Fruitful, Dundar.
-Power to your elbow, Halime Hatun. -Thank you.
But we haven't accumulated enough kilims.
Don't worry about it. I know my boys.
They will bring whatever they have left.
My bey, you know my sons and I always believed in you.
I gave up everything for you.
This is the last kilim I and my orphaned grandson have.
-You can have this too. -Thank you, Hatun.
The Kayi will rise on the shoulders of people like you.
Thank you. May God bless you.
Ertuğrul Bey, this is yours and our last chance.
If you don't succeed this time either, know that you won't keep us in this land.
-Samsar! -Yes, my bey.
-Gather the kilims. -Yes, my bey.
You, come with me. We shall consult.
-Yes. -Yes, my bey.
HANLI MARKET
Last night the Templars were humiliated.
The enemy that we tried to entrap ruined our plan.
What do we do now, sir?
First, we find out who our enemy is.
This enemy is like us. It does not give itself up.
It's the first time we've encountered a worthy enemy.
The enemy does not give itself up, my bey.
My bey, these are the ones that came our way before.
They are not as smart as we thought.
They've thrown away a big fish, my bey.
One that doesn't drown in a wild river but flows in the depths, Turgut.
You are right, Artuk Bey.
We fought Noyan, my bey. These will be light work.
We knew who the Noyan were, Turgut.
A valiant enemy is something else.
However, these are dishonorable.
How will we identify him?
He came once, he will come again.
He probably wants to know who we are.
We should watch everyone at the marketplace.
Be aware of every step that is taken.
You will closely follow anyone who makes a lot of money,
is trading out of nowhere and has the ability to wage war.
-Leave the Muslims to me. -And the others to me.
We will use Tristan as bait.
They will definitely come to capture him.
We only have a name. John the Baptist.
First, we must capture that slave dealer. He will take us to him.
Put Dumrul on this task, Turgut Alp.
Yes, my bey.
However...
they might want to use Tristan as bait and lure us into a trap.
Well, would you look at Turgut! As sharp as a needle.
Praise be to my brother! Praise be!
You are right, Turgut Alp. Dumrul must cover his tracks.
Just gather information.
We will follow everyone.
The merchants, the customers that come and go...
the people, everyone.
And they will follow us.
Let's see where our paths collide.
Now...
it is time to load the kilims and be on our way.
The Venetians await us.
-Yes, my bey. -Yes, my bey.
My bey. God forbid, if we can't sell the kilims, the people will lose hope.
I will find a way to sell them, Artuk Bey.
Otherwise, I cannot show my face in the camp.
I see, my bey.
My bey, I would also like you to hear out Hacaturyan.
On what grounds?
He might be God's blessing to us.
Let him come in.
Sit.
I am listening.
Ertuğrul Bey...
like I said before, I will most certainly repay my debt.
I explained to Artuk Bey.
I have a plan.
A creek.
A pine tree at the beginning of the river.
Inside the river, oski...
Gold! Lots of gold.
Ertuğrul Bey, if you can get me the required equipment,
-I will dig out that gold. -What is it that you need?
Long birches, and then hammers, for we will mine... Sieves...
Okay then. I will get them from the market.
Pile the kilims on the front. The Venetians will be able to carry them.
Both you and my brother are so sure that the Venetians will buy our goods.
I'm sure of everything Ural Bey does.
Are you sure Toktamış is a traitor then?
For me, anyone who draws a sword on Ural Bey is a traitor, Aslıhan Hatun.
-Is everything ready? -Yes, my bey. The animals too.
-We can move the goods at your command. -Good.
We brought all these goods. What if we can't sell them, brother?
There are no goods at this market that Ural Bey can't sell.
So, the Venetians await.
I'll come too.
I have a private matter to discuss with Simon.
Batuhan will bring you in later.
