Let me go! Let me go!
Let me go!
Let me go! I said, let me go!
-Let me go! -Bamsi.
Bamsi!
What are you doing?
Who's this?
I was... hungry, Bey.
She suddenly just fell from the sky.
From the sky.
Bamsi, she's wounded!
Quickly, take her to the inn. Artuk Bey will be there.
I'll secure the road.
-Bamsi! Take her. -Yes, Bey.
Take her.
Be careful.
Only Ertuğrul Bey may enter. Give me your weapon.
Bey...
So, you honor us with a visit, Ertuğrul Bey.
I'd like to know why you have ceased trading with my bazaar, governor.
Your bazaar?
You seem to forget that this land belongs to us, Ertuğrul.
I know full well that you occupy this territory by paying tribute to our Sultan.
That's beside the point.
Nevertheless, these lands are still under my command, Ertuğrul Bey.
The bazaar included.
You can't expect us to trade with a bazaar which a Muslim has taken by force.
Your previous trading partner, Simon,
was a Templar, one of your greatest enemies.
He was the servant
of those who killed your people and drove your emperor out of Constantinople.
Remember, I am the one who saved you from that enemy.
Don't talk to me about trust.
Simon kept a record...
of your debts to Muslim, Jewish, and Christian merchants...
here in these books.
These tradesmen, now under my protection, trusted you.
You invaded the bazaar...
and now you come here to call me to account?
I came here to keep the promise I made to my merchants.
If you don't pay your debts, many of them will suffer.
You won't get any supplies. Your people will starve.
You claim you are the ruler of this land.
If so, you are responsible for maintaining peace between its people.
Go on, Candar Bey, please start.
-In the name of God. -In the name of God.
Today is the happiest day of my life, Your Highness.
I have the honor of hosting you at my table,
and I have been given a piece of very good news.
My other children don't know it yet.
They'll learn it along with you now.
Soon...
I will have a grandchild!
May our tribe prosper. May our family live long, sister.
May God give you and my brother a worthy son, God willing.
Thank you, Aslıhan.
May God let him grow up healthily.
Amen.
If you'll allow me...
on this very day that you have honored my tent,
if it is a boy, I'd like to name him Sadettin.
I'd be honored.
May God let him grow up healthily.
And let him be a glorious bey...
like his father and grandfather.
Let him be a brave man...
who is loyal to his sultan, God willing.
Amen.
-Amen. -God willing.
Ertuğrul Bey has paid a visit to the governor.
I know the governor. He must have wanted to know his enemy.
I embraced Ertuğrul as if he was one of my own children.
I invited him to my tent.
When he and his tribe were struggling...
I gave him a commission for rugs worth thousands just to help him.
And what did he do?
He turned his back on me at the first opportunity,
and gathered the Turkmen beys himself.
You claim you govern the bazaar justly and can make it prosper, Ertuğrul.
However, we have heard otherwise.
We heard that your merchants have been plagued by bandit attacks.
Be ready.
They are very dangerous.
Kill them all.
If anybody escapes...
it will be you who pays for it.
Take this to Commander Vasilius. Immediately.
Yes, sir.
He tried to provoke the beys in order to rise against our state.
It's the only possible explanation.
You can say a lot of things about Ertuğrul Bey,
But rebelling against the state...
that's not possible.
Candar Bey, it's obvious what's happening.
The young can't see it,
because they don't have enough experience to understand it.
Aliyar Bey, son, I have known Ertuğrul for a long time.
I know his past.
I witnessed his anger for myself
when he came up against two tribes at Kapetron.
Forgive me, but...
I'm not the only one who knows how bravely Ertuğrul Bey fought against the Mongols.
God willing, Ertuğrul Bey will come to get the respect he deserves...
from you and our righteous sultan.
Aliyar!
Henceforth, Ertuğrul...
will be known as a miserable bey who has fallen from the sultan's grace
and that of the other Turkmen beys.
He has destroyed his reputation by his own hand.
I have written to our sultan.
In my letter, I detailed everything this disreputable man is guilty of.
His latest outrages are the straws which will break the camel's back.
Now, it's time for him
to reap what he has sown and go, God willing.
If you'll excuse me.
Please excuse me, too. You must have a lot to talk about.
Please...
excuse my son, Your Highness.
Candar Bey.
If a bey who I believe deserves to be a margrave has a son like Ural,
who will back him to his last breath,
that's enough for me.
I know that you have the power to keep the Turks in these parts in order,
and that you have a powerful tribe...
which will fight alongside our sultan when he goes to war.
The rest is down to me.
I don't know what to say, Your Highness.
You giving me your blessing...
Candar Bey, this is not a blessing.
This is a precaution I need to take to ensure the survival of the state.
Who stepped on his tail, brother?
It doesn't look like he's bringing good news.
We let our bey go in there with those devils without a weapon.
Let's hope for the best.
Governor, I bring an urgent message for Commander Vasilius.
Ertuğrul won't benefit from his visit to the governor, God willing.
I doubt he'll even be able to get out of that castle alive.
I predict that tomorrow this world is going to be very different.
But that doesn't mean we should let our guard down.
I know that
a peaceful night's sleep will be forbidden to me, from this point on.
Until I see their bodies hanging from the ramparts of that dreadful castle,
Ural won't sleep, Your Highness.
May God give you power against the nonbelievers, Ural.
By the way...
I learned that you lost your wife recently.
My condolences.
Thank you.
You said that you're planning on staying here for a while.
Who knows, maybe you will marry here, to a Turk bey's daughter, perhaps.
They say marriage is a miracle.
Such a marriage...
could serve to unify the Turkmen tribes against our state.
That is certainly something I should consider, Ural.
I got this from a great master, Your Highness.
I believe it would look good at your waist.
Thank you, Candar Bey.
Thank you.
We found the bandits and punished them.
And I compensated the merchants who had suffered losses because of them.
Do not rely on others,
believe only that which you hear for yourself.
If you had spoken to the merchants
you'd have understood the situation better.
"Believe," you say? You expect us to believe you?
You are a corrupt murderer.
You won't leave here alive. I'm going to make you to pay for this.
What are you doing, Vasilius?
The emperor's chamberlain was attacked by the Kayi Tribe on his way here, sir.
What?
What's happening, Doğan?
It seems that whatever the messenger brought has provoked something, brothers.
Ertuğrul Bey has no weapon.
What do we do?
We can't let our Bey remain alone in there without a weapon.
They killed the emperor's chamberlain, get them!
-With God's help! -God is the greatest!
Brothers, give me your blessings in case we don't get out of here alive.
I give you my blessing, Doğan.
We are not dead yet, brother.
We've come out alive from worse.
We'll come out of this, God willing.
I am... I am very sorry, sir.
Your daughter Helena was there when the Kayi Tribe attacked. She was coming here.
My daughter? Helena?
The Kayi Tribe doesn't do anything without me knowing about it.
It's obvious someone wants us to face off against each other.
Don't fall for this trick, Governor.
Let me kill him, sir.
I'll kill you with my own hands, you hateful Turk.
If I was going to lay an ambush and kill your daughter,
would I really come here, Governor?
Come to your senses.
Don't fall for this trick. A war will break out.
You will be the one responsible for the bloodshed.
Whatever has happened, let us sort it out together.
Let him go, Turk.
Vasilius, kill him. Don't let him get out of the castle.
Die, Turk.
-Doğan, are you okay? -Are you okay, brother?
I'm fine, brother.
Get in.
Get in there.
Stop, or the governor dies!
The only way you'll get out of here is as dead men, Ertuğrul.
Then it seems that none of us are going to survive this, governor.
Do you think we are frightened of death, Ertuğrul?
Bey, what's going on? What's the matter with these nonbelievers?
They have accused us of killing the emperor's chamberlain.
Tell me, Governor. Did they find your daughter's body?
Your men would've killed Helena already.
Here is the evidence. Kayi arrows.
Whoever's behind the attack made those arrows too, Vasilius.
A Kayi arrow would never...
be fired at an innocent person, let alone an innocent girl.
By falling for this,
you're merely serving the people who want to destroy the peace between us, Vasilius.
Governor. This is my final word to you.
Let my Alps go so that they can find the people who did this.
Let them find your daughter.
If your daughter is alive, my Alps will bring her here.
If she is dead, they will hunt down those responsible for this cowardly attack.
Let my Alps go.
I will remain here.
This way, you can all see just how much I trust my Alps.
-You can't allow him to so this, sir. -If you take another step...
the governor dies.
You killed my daughter. You killed my soldiers.
And now, you want to take me prisoner in my own castle.
How many more of your insults must I suffer, Ertuğrul?
My life is unimportant, Vasilius.
-Kill them all. -What if she is alive?
What if she didn't die?
Stop!
There will be a terrible war if you do this, Governor.
Many innocent lives will be lost.
And history will remember you as the man who killed those innocents.
You have until tomorrow, Ertuğrul.
Find my daughter or you and I will run to the angel Azrael together.
Turgut.
Find the one responsible for this treachery and bring him here.
And find the girl.
My bey... How can we leave you here?
Go now, Turgut.
Just go.
You did this, Ertuğrul.
Tomorrow, when the bell rings, I will kill you with my own two hands.
Secure the doors!
If anybody comes in, the governor dies.
Bar the door, Governor.
I will not allow...
the people who want to start a war redraw this land's borders
with the blood of innocent people, Governor.
You either take your place beside me, and help me secure the peace,
or you fall for this treachery.
HANLI BAZAAR
Artuk Bey! Artuk Bey!
Ishak Bey, help me!
Help me, Ishak Bey!
Ishak Bey, help me!
-Ishak Bey! -Bamsi, brother.
Who is this girl?
I found her in the forest. I don't know who she is.
But she's lost a lot of blood. Please, help her.
Brother, it says "Helena" on her necklace.
-Bring her through, quickly! -Quickly...
-Come on! -Quickly.
Helena?
Adonis.
Make sure they get out of the castle.
Don't do anything stupid.
It's up to us to save our bey from this predicament.
Commander Vasilius. What happened?
You failed, Petrus, that's what happened.
If you'd brought back the girl's body I could have taken Ertuğrul's head.
Laskaris went after her.
Don't worry, sir.
We will find her.
No matter what happens,
that girl must not reach here alive, Petrus. Understand?
Ishak, brother. Brother, tell me. Tell me.
Is she going to live?
She's lost a lot of blood, Bamsi, brother.
But she seems like a strong girl. She will live, God willing.
Yes, brother, she is strong indeed.
As if she was made of bronze.
Brother, she attacked me madly, even though she was wounded.
She beat me good.
Yes, she beat you good, brother.
And just a little girl, too.
Ishak.
What did you just say, brother?
I swear, your tongue is as sharp as my sword.
My God. Help me, God.
Artuk Bey?
This is more serious than we thought, Ishak.
This is a Kayi arrow.
Alas! How is that possible, bey?
Artuk Bey. Artuk Bey.
When I found this girl, she was crying out, "Murderers, murderers!"
She didn't say anything else.
Sister, stay with her.
Stay beside her.
CAVDAR TRIBE
Keep the beys at the Bithynia winter quarters ready at all times.
It's important.
When the spring comes, the Turkmen tribes which are currently widely scattered...
will settle into the hills close to Karacahisar, God willing.
The peace our sultan has won will end...
when we expel the Mongol plague from the east.
And then it will be time for war.
I see you're excited at the thought of war.
My alps and I have been waiting for this moment, Your Highness.
Thank God the words heralding that moment have finally left your mouth.
I've sent messengers to the Turkmen tribes.
Tomorrow, they will enter into your service.
When our Sultan reaches this fertile land with his army,
you and your thousands of alps will join his army.
I am honored by this news, Your Highness.
However, I have one concern.
Ertuğrul.
May I enter, Bey?
A messenger has come for his Highness.
Show him in.
Guards!
