Original subtitles

We are in the 8th Century.

It is an era full of epics that were not written.

We are in Central Asia.

In a harsh land that Islam has not yet embraced.

Where China directed its sharp teeth towards the Turkic tribes.

Russian Vikings, Mongols, Sogdians and Persians lie in wait to attack.

As if that was not enough, the Turk tribes from one ancestor were hostile towards one another.

A wild era...

a misty homeland...

but one of the epics illuminates the era and the homeland.

It talks about a slave girl and the paralysed son of a king.

I am the girl of the mountains...

Akkız.

I was born hundreds of years before you.

And I saw a dream hundreds of years before you.

Father.

Draw your bow and shoot your arrow, Akkız.

Let the place where your arrow falls be your destiny.

Consider the wolf your foot and the throne your tent...

and the horizon your limit, Akkız.

Walk.

Do not be afraid.

You are the one who will prevail.

I woke up when the birds of darkness flew in the sky.

And the dream flew away too.

There was only an arrow with blue beads.

I recognised it.

I felt that my father's hand had touched that arrow.

My father, my ancestor, and my hearth.

I don't know if this was the case in your time too...

our father's home is the seal of fate.

It is an honour.

You learn skill from your parents.

If you don't have the skill, you can't live in this brutal age.

CENTRAL ASIA, 8TH CENTURY, YEAR OF THE DRAGON If you have no honour...

they wouldn't let you live in the Turk homeland.

And I learned skill and honour from my father.

I never sat in my mother's lap.

For me, my father was the lap I sat in and was my home.

Then they destroyed my home.

I was cold in the heat...

and burned in the cold.

I flared my anger as a child for Gök Khan who left me homeless in the mountain.

I raised my orphan head against Gök Khan.

FIFTEEN YEARS AGO, YEAR OF THE TIGER

This patch came was found on the Chinese who trapped us.

What is written?

It informs the Chinese which way we'll go.

Our numbers and our formation.

It says everything.

This is impossible, Balamir Beg.

Very few people knew this.

My Great Khan.

There is a traitor among us.

Who?

GÖK ORDA, CAPITAL OF THE KINGDOM OF GÖK

Tılsım Hatun!

My Great Queen...

our Great King is coming.

Tılsım Hatun!

Alpagu Han?

Where is the lady? Where is the mountain lady who sold the Gök Khan?

Hold on to me.

Come on.

Come on.

Slow down.

Over there.

My father's soldiers are there.

MOUNTAIN KINGDOM BORDER

Tılsım Hatun?

What are you doing here? Did something happen?

Take us to my father's tribe at once.

Immediately.

Take the boy.

Get Batuga on the raft.

Batuga.

Stay away from the son of the Gök family.

Alpagu Han.

Your son, Batuga, is so much a child of the Mountain kingdom as he is of the Gök kingdom.

We will take him to Toygar Han.

The Mountain cannot take the son of the Gök kingdom.

Balamir.

Take my son.

Father.

Don't kill my mother.

Go Batuga.

Don't kill my mother, father.

Balamir!

Listen to her first.

Mother.

Tell father you're innocent.

He will forgive you.

Balamir.

Come on, my nephew.

Come here.

My son.

Don't do this.

Alpagu.

My Khan.

Don't separate me from my son.

You know the punishment for treason, Tılsım.

The punishment in your Mountain Kingdom is the same in my Gök Kingdom.

I didn't betray you.

I am innocent.

If you're innocent, then why did you run away?

Why did you run away?

My father, the Khan told me.

He said: "I betrayed the Gök Khan."

"He will kill you."

Is it only him?

Is he the only one who betrayed me?

Tılsım.

I read it a thousand times.

I saved it

Your father, Khan of the Mountain Kingdom says...

according to what my daughter Tılsım heard from the Gök Khan and told me...

on the third day of the month, at dawn...

when the Gök Khan, Alpagu Han...

will leave the Gök Kingdom with 1500 Alps...

and reaches the border of China...

they will cross through Emli Valley which is on the map.

And with them will be Balamir Beg...

Saltuk Beg...

and Vargı Beg...

in the army.

Commander of the Great Army of China...

my only request from you...

is that none of them survive.

I didn't die.

I stayed alive.

But...

249 Gök Alps died.

249 Gök Alps.

How can I leave you alive now?

Alpagu.

Don't do this.

I loved you so much.

I'm your wife.

You are, Tılsım.

You are.

Let the great mountains and forests...

the steppes...

and the colorful horizon be my witness...

I, the one who spreads fear in hearts...

gave my heart to the daughter of my enemy.

And now I take it back.

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Mother!

Wake up, mother.

Mother!

Open your eyes.

Mother.

How could you kill her?

Mother.

Mother.

Mother.

MOUNTAIN KINGDOM

The loser becomes captive to the winner.

Know this.

And swing your sword accordingly, Akkız.

I will not be a captive.

You swing your sword to, my Alp father.

I will take you captive.

Will the great Mountain Alp become a captive?

The great big Akkız, in fact.

The great big Akkız?

Okay then.

Little big Akkız doesn't become captive.

Akkız, my dear.

Let's see then...

the great big Akkız.

Let's see who becomes the captive.

You are the captive.

You are the captive.

Only you can defeat Evren Alp, Akkız.

You are our leader from now on.

Akkız, Chief of the Mountain Alps.

Give me one of these wooden swords...

so I can defeat my father too.

My father made my swords, I won't give them.

Nobody can take my daughter's sword as long as she doesn't want to give it.

They can't.

My daughter does not become a captive.

She does not.

The Gök people are coming!

Children, women, hide!

Come on, hide!

Come on, children, come on.

Come on, get up.

Hide, women, they're from the Gök Kingdom.

Akkız.

Go.

Sırma, Yaman, take Börtü.

Let's go.

I brought you your daughter.

Toygar Han!

My daughter.

Tılsım.

My sister.

Tılsım.

Tılsım.

Tılsım.

Tılsım.

My sister.

Don't cry, take it.

Whoever killed my daughter...

even if he is the Great Khan...

I won't let him leave this tribe alive!

The Khan who married his daughter to me to spy on me...

I'll destroy his tribe on his head.

Destroy it!

I don't want your tribe to be left without a leader...

Çolpan Hatun.

Urha!

Mountain Alps!

Men, women and children of the Mountain Kingdom.

Your King and Tılsım Hatun have betrayed my state.

And I punished them.

I don't know if you are involved in this betrayal or not...

Çolpan Hatun.

I don't have proof.

So I'll spare your life.

But my command regarding you and your tribe is exile.

Get away from my borders before the sun goes down.

Alpagu, we don't leave our homeland!

Father!

Father.

You die too, you die too!

249 Alps died.

I counted them on the battlefield one by one, 249 Gök Alps.

They weren't just Alps.

They were sons to their mothers and husbands to their wives.

and fathers for their children.

Children are crying for their fathers who fought bravely on the battlefield.

Gök children crying for their fathers...

is their right.

But it is not the right of a Gök child to cry for his treacherous mother.

And that's why, as the Gök Khan, I forbid you to cry for her.

But as your father, I know, you're hurting.

Understand me, too.

I'm in pain, too.

He who is in pain, does not take lives.

I won't talk to you until I die.

I brought you here to understand your Khan.

Not to become his enemy!

The Khan with blood on his hands.

The Khan with closed eyes.

The Khan with a burning heart.

He killed Tılsım, the daughter of the Mountains.

Alpagu killed my Khan.

Alpagu killed my lady.

The devil touched the tribe.

He killed Tılsım, the daughter of the Mountains.

Gök Tengri, give my father strength.

Enter him into your heaven.

He was the upper layer of the earth.

He was the roof of the tribe.

Where do you go, Toygar Han?

Where do you go, Tılsım of the Mountains?

Akkız.

We have to take your father.

We'll wrap him in felt.

Alpagu killed my Khan.

Alpagu killed my lady.

The devil touched the tribe.

He killed Tılsım, the daughter of the Mountains.

Akkız.

Kün Ata.

Our Khan and our lady...

were they really traitors?

I do not know.

This is what Alpagu Han says.

Well, what about Çolpan Hatun?

- Is she a traitor? - I don't know.

But my father was not a traitor.

- Isn't it? - He wasn't.

He was a brave Alp.

He was the most fierce claw of the Mountain Alps.

Why did he die then?

If he wasn't guilty, why did my father die?

Because...

the swords sharpened by Khans, slaughter men.

Sometimes because of justice.

And because of betrayal sometimes.

Alpagu killed my Khan.

Alpagu killed my lady.

The devil touched the tribe.

He killed Tılsım, the daughter of the Mountains.

He was the upper layer of the earth.

He was the roof of the tribe.

Where do you go, Toygar Han?

Where do you go, Tılsım of the Mountains?

The grandfather of the Gök Kingdom and the grandfather of the Mountains Kingdom were brothers.

Now brotherly tribes are against one another.

The tribes were filled with the blood of brothers.

But the steppe needs strength.

Turks need to unite.

We need bravery that unites the homelands.

The two-headed wolf will come.

They will unite the Turks.

Gök Tengri will give them strength.

They will draw the golden bow and shoot the silver arrow.

The two-headed wolf will unite the Turks.

The two-headed wolf...

will unite the Turks.

The two-headed wolf will unite the Turks.

The two-headed wolf will unite the Turks.

The two-headed wolf will unite the Turks.

Kün Ata of the Mountains!

Forget the two-headed wolf...

even if all the wolves of this world come...

even if all the Turks unite, the Mountain Kingdom and the Gök Kingdom will not.

Because I won't allow it

The Gök Khan killed my father.

The Mountain tribe is my trust now.

Gök Tengri...

gave the strength to me.

I am not Çolpan Hatun now.

I am Queen Çolpan now.

I swear by Gök Tengri...

this fire that Alpagu Han lit will not be extinguished.

I will never forget this day.

I will engrave it in my mind and carry it in my soul.

I swear we'll go find our home.

We will migrate.

Provinces go, traditions remain.

Every soil is a body for our souls.

And we will migrate.

But before the Gök Kingdom kneels before the Mountain Kingdom...

this soul will not migrate from this body.

I promise. I promise.

Kün Ata, if you see the two-headed wolf, tell them...

I will not be the sword of any Khan.

I will be the claws of the two-headed wolf.

Balamir.

My brother.

Behead all the Mountain people in the palace.

Go to your room.

What did I tell you?

I said the Mountain girl could not be the wife of the Gök Khan.

I said that the Mountain Kingdom is the biggest enemy of the Gök Kingdom.

You said Ulu Ece is jealous of the second wife.

You said the war would end and peace would come.

What happened now, Danış Ata? What happened now?

My second wife is dead, Ulu Ece.

How is Batuga?

He said he won't talk to me until he dies.

His mother died, he is in pain.

What does the fifth law of our nine sacred laws say?

Whoever betrays his people must be killed.

As the law says, the necks are taken, son.

Yes.

One of you will become the Gök Khan someday.

Know this well.

Isn't that right, Danış Ata?

Ulu Ece is right.

The Gök Khan blesses those who abide by the laws.

He kills those who break the laws.

Was my order executed?

It's done, my Khan.

All the Mountain people in the palace were beheaded.

Now, I want to say a few things about what we're going to do, Khan.

Whoever wants, may talk.

We did not leave any of the Mountain people in the palace.

But only Batuga is still alive.

We are waiting for your orders.

Batuga?

Batuga Tegin is the son of the Khan.

My Khan, it's your decision to make.

But Batuga Tegin has Gök blood.

But he was weaned off the milk of the Mountain people.

If we defend him by saying he has Gök blood...

we'll strike him saying that he weaned the milk of the Mountain people.

Don't do this, Danış Ata, don't do this.

Ulu Ece is also a Russian princess.

Temur Tegin and Kaya Tegin were breastfed by a Russian mother.

While this is the case, why do we accuse Batuga because of the milk he drank?

Watch what you say, Saltuk.

My sons were not breastfed by a treacherous woman.

I would give my life for the Gök Khan.

I wouldn't betray like his second wife.

Tılsım Hatun and her father, the Khan of the Mountain Kingdom, have paid for their betrayal.

Batuga Tegin will not betray as a child of this age.

Batuga is a child today.

But he'll grow up tomorrow, Saltuk Beg.

He will grow up.

We will have a child who is a child of the Gök Kingdom and the Mountain Kingdom...

and he will know all the secrets of the state...

what if he betrays us like his mother?

We raised an enemy once in the palace.

Will we raise a traitor again because the Mountain Kingdom bore the lame child to the Gök Kingdom?

Ulu Ece is right.

Batuga will want to take his mother's revenge on us.

How will he do it? He has no hands and feet.

Temur!

There is no need for hands and feet to take revenge.

The mind is enough.

This mind may be the end of the Gök Kingdom.

If Batuga Tegin lives, he may ascend to the throne too.

Enough!

Batuga is my son.

He is your son...

but you are not a father, Alpagu.

You are a Khan.

Either your son or your state lives.

Bring the executioner.

Only one person left in the palace who was breastfed by a Mountain woman.

And it's you.

No, no.

Batuga, Batuga.

Batuga.

Batuga.

Batuga.

- My son. - My brother.

Open your eyes.

- Batuga. - Batuga, my brother.

Batuga.

My son.

15 YEARS LATER, YEAR OF THE DRAGON. After that dark day, I never saw Batuga.

After we buried our dead...

and migrated from our homeland, I heard...

that Batuga's mind left his body that day.

Maybe his mind went to forget the pain he went through.

I wonder, has he forgotten me?

Did he forget the girl the who became an orphan the day he became an orphan?

Did he forget that Gök Khan left one of us without a mother and the other without a father?

If he forgot, I haven't forgotten.

I have not forgotten those two little children who are two halves of one fate.

I will not forget.

One day I'll take the Mountain's revenge on Gök...

MOUNTAIN TRIBE for both of us.

MOUNTAIN TRIBE

Shoot it to the west.

No, no.

Shoot it to the East.

What if you shoot it north?

Sırma, I'm going to shoot it to the sun now.

Should I shoot it to the sun?

Shall I build our house there?

No, it's too hot there, we'll get roasted.

Did you get the girl to shoot an arrow and build a house where it lands?

The misfortune of our love.

He will beat you in next week's competition.

He will be the first in the arrow competition and take the girl.

That's what he says.

Did you believe him, Kün Ata?

Don't believe me.

You will see when the wedding takes place after I get the girl in the feast.

You'll take me in the feast, Yaman, but how will we hold the wedding?

We don't have what we need.

We can go out to plunder.

We can plunder the Gök caravans on the Silk Road.

You can't do that.

After your last plunder, the Silk Road is full of Gök soldiers.

You will get caught.

Sit where you sit.

And you shoot your arrow to the East, and let the place it falls be your home.

Let the place where your arrow falls be your destiny.

What happened?

Akkız, what happened?

- Where is Queen Çolpan? - In her tent?

These?

These are from the Kingdom of Toyo.

And these are from Sogdia.

Their relationship with the Gök Kingdom?

They pay taxes, they trade, they're in peace.

This place?

China, the Tang Dynasty.

They trapped the Gök Khan fifteen years ago.

China has been at war with the Gök Kingdom for years.

In the end, the Emperor of China gave his daughter as a bride to the Gök Kingdom.

They are in peace now, but China cannot be trusted.

Why do you enter the place as if it's a stable?

This place is the queen's tent

Pardon me, my queen.

I had something to say.

Go out, I'm coming.

Lift this.

What should I say if she asks later?

You will say that Queen Çolpan will sneak me into the Gök palace...

so she trains me.

What will you say? Don't say anything.

This is our secret.

What were you going to ask about?

My queen...

when will we take revenge on the Gök Kingdom?

Don't you constantly plunder the Gök caravans?

What more will you take?

Not like that.

Real revenge.

Revenge that will burn Alpagu Han's heart.

Do you remember the mourning ceremony?

What did I say that day?

I said this soul will not migrate from this body before the Gök Kingdom kneels before the Mountain Kingdom.

So keep on being a problem for the Gök Kingdom...

and leave the revenge to me.

I saw a dream.

I don't remember it all.

But my father said.

"draw your bow...

and shoot your arrow."

"Let the place where your arrow falls be your destiny."

And the arrow...

- Where did the arrow fall?

...it was an eagle...

or a dragon...

the arrow with the blue beads hit it right in the heart?

Draw this eagle or dragon for me, whatever it was.

The Göks are coming!

They're going to search the tribe. Run!

- My queen... - I said go.

Let's go!

What are you doing with the water like that?

Hey, I'm talking to you.

I perform ablution, I am a Muslim.

Muslim?

Where is your tribe?

I've never heard of it, what tribe is it?

Oh, do you not know anything?

It is not a tribe, rather it is the true path.

What path? Tell me, know it all.

Look, don't do that.

You call me a child, but you're more of a child than me.

Who is a child?

Okay, okay, okay, okay, you win.

Do you not have anyone, Muslim child?

Do you herd sheep alone?

My mother is sick and my father...

went to Jannah (paradise).

Where is that?

The place where good Muslims go when they die.

Is it like our heaven?

Do you know?

my father also went to heaven.

Is it from your father?

It is from my father.

Gök soldiers!

We are looking for the plunderer who calls themself a double-headed wolf's claw.

Did you see them?

Did you also not see them, child?

Our Khan has put a reward for their capture.

Don't you want gold?

I do not.

The two-headed wolf's claw frees the captives and feeds the poor.

I wouldn't tell you even if I saw it.

Silence your child, woman!

She's just a child, brave ones.

Because everyone is talking about them, she thinks the thief is a hero.

Be on your way, we didn't see anyone.

The two-headed wolf's claw is not a thief.

They are the bravest hero in these steppes.

Really?

You are the two-headed wolf's claw.

It's our secret.

Your secret is my secret.

Let me get a little bigger and my sword will be yours too.

Stay here.

Gök Tengri, master of the blue sky and the dark earth...

give me strength.

And I will pray to Allah for you.

I heard you are looking for me.

Show your face so we can see who you are.

You! Attack!

Fly to Alpagu Han.

GÖK ORDA CAPITAL OF THE GÖK KINGDOM

So a thief beat a group of soldiers...

is that right?

Soldiers of Gök Kingdom...

were defeated by a girl who calls herself a two-headed wolf's claw.

is that right?

The girl plunders our caravans.

and release our prisoners.

What use are my Alps?

Temur.

You will find that girl and hang her on the pillar of the palace.

As you command, my Khan.

Put him in the dungeons.

My Khan.

I hope you bring good news, Yasavul Saltuk.

What does my brother say? Will he give his daughter?

Balamir Yabgu says, I thought the Khan would ask for my daughter for one of his able-bodied children.

Doesn't your uncle know that the able-bodied children are married?

But since my brother thinks that my daughter is worthy of his disabled son, Batuga...

Is he not?

If my son's mind was not perfect, why would I ask Yabgu for his daughter?

I would have asked for the daughter of a Mongol Khan.

I can't oppose my Great Khan's order.

He says to go ahead and ask for his daughter and make the vows.

Get the gifts ready to go out in the morning.

Count thirty chests of gold to show people what a bride really looks like.

Put rubies and emeralds.

Prepare robes with Chinese fabrics and beautiful patterns.

Prepare them. Ulu Ece will choose.

And choose ten slaves.

Who will we ask for and for who, Tayangu?

We ask for Balamir Yabgu's daughter for the disabled child.

Even the disabled child gets married and you are not married yet.

I wish the Khan had put your head in a bow so you could lose your mind.

Maybe then your voice would be silenced like the disabled child.

Are you looking for me?

Keep searching.

I will find you all.

You're late.

I took Alps to find the one who calls herself the two-headed wolf's claw.

- Did you see Kaya's face? - I've been seeing Kaya's ugly face for years.

Am I talking about that?

When our Khan gave you this task...

Kaya almost ran to his mother's lap.

That's what I'm talking about.

It's clear that your father, the Khan trusts you a lot.

If he wants you to be the next Khan after him...

I won't be surprised.

Besides...

Besides what?

my father will be very happy too.

If I become the Khan someday...

do you know what I will regret?

The Chinese Emperor's rejoice.

Kaya.

We're leaving in the morning, you should sleep.

Do you have a headache?

Those bad spirits hurt my husband's head.

Go and annoy that wolf's claw.

And it has two heads.

They can also annoy Mei Jin. Shes a nine-headed snake.

Your father trusts your mind more than Temur's sword.

Do not be upset.

What did you do?

I took the Alps from East to West, North to South, in all directions.

They will search all the tribes in the steppes.

Good, find that plunderer quickly.

Don't worry, my Khan father, I'll cut off that wolf's two heads.

Let's eat and set off.

- Good morning, my Khan. - Good morning.

Say if you want to say something. Don'tlook.

- My Khan. - Yes.

You are being unfair on your niece.

She will marry this disabled one

Mother, don't say disabled.

His name is Batuga.

What will happen if she says it?

Does he have the mind to understand and grieve?

But my uncle, Balamir Yabgu has a pride that will be broken.

- If we give him a dumb and disabled... - I think not of Yabgu's pride...

rather, the good that I see.

Tengri lives for all time.

The son of man lives to die.

Surely I'll die one day, too.

May Tengri protect you.

Tengri has not forgotten anyone, Hatun.

And he will definitely not forget me.

Do you think...

that your uncle Balamir Yabgu does not have his sight on this throne?

He does.

- Isn't it, Danış Ata? - That's right, my Khan.

I heard he's keeping a good relationship with Kurultay from now.

He has a good relationship with my father and he also sent many gifts to China.

Whoever wants the throne, does this.

And if he does not take it, he will rebel.

Is that why you take his daughter as a bride?

The girl will not be a bride, she will be collateral.

If my brother Balamir wants the throne for himself...

then his daughter will not find good fortune.

And if he accpets you as the Khan after me...

he bows to you and blesses you...

you will bless his daughter too.

May Tengri grant you a long life, my Khan father.

But after you...

do you want me to be the Khan?

Kurultay would choose but...

countries are taken by swords and preserved by knowledge.

If your brother Temur...

unite his sword with your mind...

then the Gök Kingdom will not be defeated.

Of course, Kaya would make a very good Khan.

But now is your reign, my Khan, may Tengri grant you a long life.

Don't talk like you're going to die.

Don't frown, Hatun.

I'm not dead yet.

And you should smile a little, Batuga Tegin.

We'll ask for a girl for you. Do you know?

You say: "how will I know?"...

"You couldn't take my soul but you took my mind," don't you?

Our hands hold swords...

and our horses race with the wind.

The disabled child takes the Bey's daughter.

Kıraç.

Stop it.

I do it for his own good.

Isn't that right, disabled child?

If the Bey's daughter sees that wooden sword...

she won't let you into her room.

Give me this so the girl won't see it.

Gök servant, Kıraç.

Are you messing with a Gök child?

Günseli Hatun.

No I was just...

feeling pity for him.

I didn't want him to go with a wooden sword.

You felt pity for him.

Do you pity a Gök child?

I mean...

he lost his mind.

I pity him.

Who are you to pity the son of the Great Khan?

He should pity you.

If I get a little angry...

I will wrap you in your dear Khorasan rug...

and make the horses trample you like the Mongols do.

You better leave...

and run away from my anger.

Have the guest tent ready before we arrive...

and the fire kindled. Come on, move.

Move!

You too, hurry up, come on!

Did you protect Batuga, Günseli Hatun?

You moved my heart.

Which heart, Mei Jin?

Do you know where you are?

You don't even know where you are

You give orders to Gök soldiers like Ulu Ece.

What happened?

Are you trying to be like Ulu Ece?

Yes, I thought my mouth should get used to it.

Our Khan just said that Kaya will be the Khan after him.

The day will come when things will change.

Don't get too excited.

Who rejoices about what, brides?

We will have a new sister-in-law, my Great Queen.

I'm happy about that

Mei Jin says not to get too excited.

The first ones have left for the road with gifts.

When will we leave?

Put Batuga in his cart.

Let's go.

I will handle it.

Groom!

Let's go.

Come on, my brother.

Come on.

My Khan.

The Bakshy women saw black clouds in their dreams.

Let's make an offering to Gök Tengri.

Let's call on him and ask for a sign.

And let's get his approval.

Offer your sacrifice in the guest tent in the evening, Hatun.

Let's leave before the day ends.

Let's go.

Okay, my Khan.

If Gök Tengri...

makes flowing water appear in your way...

may the water let you pass.

Even if a great mountain appears...

may it give you light.

Go like water and come back like water.

Do you think yourself small?

Are you trying to defeat me?

Where are our people?

A chariot full of Gök Kingdom's slaves girls appeared.

We must save them.

There are boxes of silk and gold.

Enough to give to someone.

Akkız!

Look, I promise you.

They will come running from China.

Are there really chests of gold?

If you ask for the truth...

I don't know what's in it.

But whatever is inside all those boxes...

it's enough for all the single people in these Steppes.

The single people of the steppes can wait.

Isn't that right, Yaman?

Yes, Sırma.

Let's get married.

What do we have to lose?

Save your love talk for later.

Let's go.

Come on, to the horses.

Master of the blue sky and the dark earth, Gök Tengri...

give me strength.

Let's go!

Trap!

How dare you?

Don't you see the soldiers of the Gök Khan, Alpagu Khan?

How dare you attack the chariot of the Khan?

The two-headed wolf's claws...

rescue the captive girls of the Gök palace.

And they've seized your money.

Tell your Khan when you wake up.

Come on, go.

You are free.

You...

You are the two-headed wolf's claws.

Tell us your name.

Let's name our girls after you.

No need for my name.

All you have to do is tell your children about the two-headed wolf.

Say, the two-headed wolf will come.

And the days when the Turks take Turks as slaves will be over.

Come on, go to different Turks.

And don't tell anyone you saw my face.

Take this box first.

It might be gold but let's take a look.

It's better than gold.

What is this for?

It's a bride girl's gift.

Which bride girl?

We heard the Gök men talking.

Alpagu Han will ask for his niece from his brother Balamir for his son.

And these chest and we too...

were his gifts to the Western Gök Kingdom.

Which son does he want the girl for?

You know his disabled child...

the child who can't hold with his hands, walk with his legs or think with his mind...

they ask for him.

Batuga.

Okay then.

Take the chest and the cart also.

Let's go.

What will happen if we give these golds to the villagers?

It's not food or milk.

How will it fill their stomachs?

What are we going to do, Akkız?

Hey, I'm talking to you, what are you thinking?

We can't sell these stolen goods in the city.

The merchants will realise it's from the Gök Kingdom's treasury.

But there is a lot of gold.

Enough for the entire steppe.

Look at the beauty of this.

What a shame.

The bride of the Gök Kingdom will not be able to wear this silk on her wedding.

Okay.

So, let the bride of the Mountain Kingdom choose the silk that she'll wear on her wedding.

I choose this red silk.

Bright like the sun beside Yaman.

Akkız, Akkız.

We'll make a dress for you from this floral silk, how is it?

Sırma.

I'm a fighter, what will I do with this?

Don't make me angry.

Otherwise, I'll make you wear bright colours.

Sırma, take this off.

I'm a bride, everything goes as I say.

Blue is very beautiful too.

- The green is so beautiful, and the pink. - Sırma, have you lost your mind?

They're all so pretty look, they're all so pretty.

Yaman, say something to your friend.

- Green is also beautiful, they are all very beautiful. - Have you lost your mind?

Sırma!

Sırma.

They are all so beautiful, look.

Alpagu Han.

Gök soldiers.

Alpagu Han's Nine Banners. Let's run.

You die too, you die too!

This time...

the Mountain People will not escape.

What will they do?

Since the men of the Gök Kingdom have come to the foot of the Mountain...

then, the two-headed wolf's claws...

will take the life of Alpagu Han.

Stop!

Protect the Khan.

Let's go!

Alps!

We fell into an ambush.

Who?

Two-headed wolf's claws.

Let's go!

What happened?

All the Alps were killed except Kıraç.

Unfortunately, it's her again.

Two-headed wolf's claws.

Saltuk, leave a unit of Alps here.

Let them protect our Khan.

Search everywhere in the steppes with the other Alps.

Look under every stone.

Let the guest tent be set up in a safe place.

Don't pitch the guest tent here.

You are right, it is very easy to get attacked.

Let's put it on the hill.

Let's go to the river behind the hill.

It's safer there.

I, the one who spreads fear in hearts...

gave my heart to the daughter of my enemy.

And now I take it back.

Mother, mother, mother!

Did you remember?

You didn't remember.

Do not remember.

Don't turn to stone because of pain like your father.

The day I took your mother's life here...

you said you won't talk to me until you die.

That's how it was.

You didn't say a word.

Perhaps the Great Tengri heard your oath.

He took your mind and silenced your voice.

And punished me.

Maybe he didn't punish me and gave me a gift.

To say what I can't say to anyone...

he gave me a child with no voice and mind.

I look to my left...

I see my son, Temur.

He wielded his sword and shed blood.

And made enemies flee and took the spoils.

But I can't tell him what's inside me.

I look to my right...

I see my son, Kaya.

He held the pen.

And advanced without shedding blood.

Gathered a fortune on the Silk Road.

Roll the silk threads in a straight manner.

But I can't tell him what's inside me either

I look at my heart...

I see you.

You did not shed blood...

you didn't defeat anyone or make them kneel.

You couldn't do anything for the kingdom.

But...

you've been really useful to your Khan.

You were really hepful to the lonely Alpagu Han.

I told you all my worries.

I felt at ease.

Even now.

I only tell you that I carry your mother's pain in my heart.

From now on, not only for the Khan, but you will be of benefit to the Gök Kingdom.

My niece will be your bride and my assurance.

As long as his only daughter is in our palace...

Balamir will not be able to oppose me.

This is why I marry you to her.

So the Gök Kingdom does not divide.

Do you understand?

You do not understand.

Let it be.

This works for me.

Say something.

If I hear your voice again...

I'll demolish these mountains in front of us...

and dry this silent river

Say something.

Please.

Draw the bow.

Release.

Is it bad news?

Good news.

Tılsım's son...

my nephew...

will marry.

Batuga?

Batuga.

No.

I can't shoot like this.

Gök soldiers won't leave him alone.

Maybe if we stop, we'll get caught.

Gök Alps are everywhere.

The best is to start a fire.

This is very dangerous.

We must hurry.

If the Alps who went out looking for us come back, we won't have any chance.

Cover me.

Come on.

Stay here, boy, wait for me.

The water left from mothers...

the water left from fathers...

accept me.

Protect me with your soul.

What if this happened to us because the Gök Tengri doesn't want Batuga's marriage?

Not because of Gök Tengri.

Rather, that thief who called herself the two-headed wolf's claws.

The God of Heaven is the one who made you catch that thief

But he allowed the girl to be taken as a bride because he did not want to marry Batuga

We did not make a vow or offer sacrifice.

We did not get his approval.

Come on, my sons, my brides.

Let's make a vow to Gök Tengri...

and ask for his approval.

Otherwise, your mother will not be silent.

Come on.

Tell Gök Tengri...

to hear the whistling of our arrows.

Oh Master of the blue sky, Gök Tengri...

hear the sound of our arrows whistling.

Listen to us.

Sole Ruler of the dark earth, Great Gök Tengri...

listen to your Ulu Ece.

We scatter wheat on the ground to bring peace.

We spill the milk on the land so that no blood is spilled.

We release our horses, give us good tidings.

Oh Gök Tengri who protects...

the blue sky...

the dark earth and the water of knowledge.

Give us a sign.

Does our path bring us prosperity?

Or darkness?

Give us a sign, Gök Tengri.

Temur.

Take your positions!

Protect the Khan!

You die too!

Alpagu!

- Hurry up, Alps! - Alpagu!

Don't cry, take it.

For those two little children.
