THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

Where the hell is that idiot soldier? What's going on at the tribe?

What did you learn?

Sir, Ertuğrul Bey captured the tribe.

He killed Bahadir Bey and his son and made the beys kneel.

Bahadir Bey's alps have surrendered.

Damn it.

How could this happen?

Ertuğrul will head to the castle now.

We need to close the secret passage if we're going to defend the castle.

Everyone to the castle! Now!

That's the entrance to the secret passage.

When Ertuğrul Bey arrives, we'll advance.

We will conquer it tonight, God willing.

-God willing. -God willing.

When Ares finds out I'm not at the castle he may well suspect something

and close the entrance.

Titan could show up at any moment. We'll ambush him here.

Let's pray that Ertuğrul Bey is on time.

According to our laws

there is but one punishment for traitors.

Death.

This traitor

paid the price of his uncontrollable ambition

with his life.

Look at him!

Whoever breaks our laws and betrays us

for his own benefit or to satisfy his ambition

ends up with his head on my sword.

-My Bey. -Brother.

-May God bless you, my Bey. -Thank you, Turgut.

God bless you, Ertuğrul Bey. You were truly sent from God.

You saved my tribe from the traitors. Thank you.

You're welcome, Aslıhan Hatun.

Until it had a knife through it,

her treacherous heart would always have been a problem.

Now, leadership is yours, Turgut Bey.

From now on, my tribe is yours to command.

But my Bey

Henceforth,

the Cavdar tribe is led

by Turgut Bey.

Obey him!

By agreeing to obey, don't think you've got away with what you've done.

There is still a price to pay for your actions.

Verdicts

will be reached after the battle, Turgut Bey.

As you command, my Bey.

If no traitors are left among us,

the thousand bastards who wait outside stand no chance of defeating us.

We took the head of the traitor.

Now it is time for us to take the head of our enemy.

Aslıhan Hatun, now that we have cleared your tribe of its traitors,

you should stay with the Kayis, with my mother and Halime Sultan.

Tell them,

the Cavdar tribe is free of traitors and that we're heading off to war.

And tell Artuk Bey to send the alps still at the tribe to the siege.

Yes, Ertuğrul Bey. Blessed be your holy war.

-Thank you, Aslıhan Hatun. -Amen.

Come on then, Turgut Bey.

Sir, there's still no word from Titan.

I'm concerned.

Titan is a great knight, Kostas.

He fulfils his duties thoroughly.

Nothing can save Ertuğrul from him.

He'll probably return here at night to avoid making the secret passage known,

I expect word of his victory will come soon.

We all keenly await that blessed word, sir.

Still, we should be cautious, Kostas.

Don't forget, this castle is the beating heart of Karacahisar.

If any harm comes to the castle, Karacahisar falls.

Double the number of men on the walls.

And reinforce the doors with iron bolts.

Yes, sir.

Marya

Why have you left your room? The doctor said you were to rest.

Don't worry, sir. My wound has healed. I feel much better.

I pray for you constantly.

I pray that your efforts are rewarded with victory.

Don't worry Marya, victory will be ours.

Ertuğrul's death is imminent.

That barbaric Turk,

who wounded you and attacked my castle, will get what he deserves.

Ertuğrul will die today.

How so?

As they say in Latin,

Auribus teneo lupum.

Ertuğrul heads into a storm, Marya.

A storm so fierce that

both the margrave and the Turk tribes will be shattered.

Then you'll see how.

Now, go to your room and rest.

Tonight, I celebrate my victory with you.

Get ready.

As soon as they get off their horses, we'll take them down.

They found the passage! To the horses!

Now!

God is alive!

God is infinite! God is great!

God is infinite! God is great!

God is infinite!

Bastard!

Follow him!

Don't let him reach the castle, dead or alive! Now!

Let's capture this castle first.

If that arrow doesn't kill you

you will yet come to your death by our hands.

There.

You go that way.

Take that side.

You bastard! I'll kill you!

I have to get to the castle!

I have to get the secret passage closed.

I can't believe what that snake did while we are at war!

Ertuğrul Bey is bound to take his head!

Let's pray he hasn't hurt Aslıhan Hatun and Turgut Alp.

Daughter! Daughter.

Ertuğrul will get there, he will save them and the Cavdar tribe.

There is nothing we can do but pray.

You're right, Mother.

May I enter, Hayme Hatun?

Come in, Artuk Bey.

Aslıhan Hatun?

-Aslıhan. -Thank God.

Thank you, Hafsa Hatun.

-Aslıhan. -Sister!

-Welcome! -Thank you.

-Are you all right? -I am, thank you.

Mother Hayme.

Welcome, my girl.

Thank you.

-You are unhurt? -I am, Mother Hayme.

Turgut, too?

Turgut is fine, don't worry.

The tribe? What happened?

My tribe is free of traitors and has been saved.

-Good, thank God. -Thank God.

Aslıhan Hatun, I will thank God a thousand times

that you have survived this misfortune.

Thank you, Halime Hatun.

Ertuğrul Bey was a godsend. May God bless him.

God willing, we will see good days now that these evil ones have passed.

-God willing. -God willing.

God willing.

Ertuğrul Bey and the alps are riding to Karacahisar Castle.

Artuk Bey, Ertuğrul Bey commands you to send the tribes' alps to the siege.

As he commands.

That means

there will be more work for us to do in the tribe.

-Hafsa, daughter. -Yes, Mother Hayme?

Send word to the women. Tell them come to the tent.

I have new duties to give them to keep the tribe secure and in order.

Your wish is my command.

I'll send the alps to the siege then.

-Excuse me, Hayme Hatun. -You're excused, Artuk Bey.

-Welcome, Ertuğrul Bey. -Thank you, Atsiz.

I hope you have good news.

The traitors got what they asked for, Atsiz.

-Bahadir and his son paid their dues. -Very good, Ertuğrul Bey.

While we were waiting for you Titan and three of his men appeared.

We ambushed them.

Titan ran. But I hit him with an arrow.

My duty was to stay here so I didn't chase him.

But I sent two alps after him, just in case.

Well done, Atsiz.

When the castle falls, their heads will fall, too.

God willing.

We found the secret passage, thank God.

Now we hunt our prey in his cage.

Turgut, send word to the beys who are holding the gates.

No man is to leave his post until we plant our flag.

-Tell them to keep their eyes open. -As you command, my Bey.

This passage is Ares' only way out of the castle.

They'll only use it at night.

Titan would have done the same if he hadn't been ambushed.

Ares won't expect him until nightfall.

What do we do, my Bey?

Ares is hoping to hear news of my death from Titan.

We'll convince them that I am indeed dead.

First, we send word to the castle that I've been killed.

But Bey,

if all the gates are closed, how will we do that?

We'll find a way, Turgut, we'll find a way.

My Bey,

When we came across Titan, he was carrying this pigeon cage.

Good, Atsiz.

Sisters!

Our beys and alps have gone to the siege.

From now on

we are responsible for training and sentry duties.

As you command, Mother Hayme!

Drills and training will be led by Halime Hatun and Aslıhan Hatun.

-Yes, Mother. -As you command, Mother Hayme!

You must pay particular attention to the younger girls.

Remember, as the twig is bent, so grows the tree.

Hafsa Hatun will be in charge of the rug house, ointments and food.

-Keep me fully informed. -As you wish, Mother Hayme.

Saray Hatun.

You are in charge of the women who take on sentry duty.

Pick some of the younger, alert women.

Check on them day and night and keep me posted.

As you command, Mother Hayme!

Sisters, our tribe and our families are entrusted first to God,

and then to us.

Until the battle is over

keep your sword by your side day and night.

Come on, now. See to your duties.

As you command, Mother Hayme!

If that's the way Titan sends messages, then we'll do the same.

Send Ares a message as if from Titan.

Tell him Ertuğrul and his alps were killed in the ambush,

and that he'll sneak back into the castle

after finding out what's happening at the Cavdar tribe.

Leave it to me, my Bey.

After you've sent it, tell the alps surrounding the castle to withdraw.

Once he sees that, Ares will think he's won

and will be careless.

And we'll disguise ourselves as Titan and his soldiers and sneak into the castle.

Ares is in the inner castle, the heart of Karacahisar.

We attack the inner castle first.

Once we've captured it, Karacahisar Castle will fall.

We'll have to kill the soldiers guarding the passage first.

But we must be quiet,

so the soldiers at the other end don't hear us.

If they do, they'll close the passage on the Karacahisar side.

My Bey, I can't wait to see Ares' face

when he finds out you're not dead, but living flesh and blood.

We'll all enjoy seeing his face when we get there, Bamsi.

God willing, my Bey. God willing.

When we're in, we need to dispose of the archers first.

-That's up to you, Bamsi. -As you command, my Bey.

May God open the way for our conquest and help us turn these lands into heaven!

Amen!

Bamsi, leave some of your best alps here.

They need to keep watch over the passage.

We'll go with the rest of the alps

and pray that God clears a path to our victory.

As you command, my Bey.

Come on.

Sir, the soldiers are eager for news from Titan.

With Ertuğrul dead, the need to defend is at an end and we can start our offenses.

We will attack the desperate Turks while they're still reeling from his death.

We'll make it clear to the world

that we'll never leave our lands to these barbarians.

Sir, what's next after Ertuğrul's death?

We take Hanli bazaar.

They've seen their catapults burn and their alps massacred,

then Ertuğrul's death.

The Turks will be truly devastated when we take Hanli Bazaar.

When Titan and his heroic knights return it will be our turn.

We'll take Hanli bazaar.

Allahuekber.

Semi'allahu limen hamideh.

Allahuekber.

Allahuekber.

Allahuekber.

Allahuekber.

Esselamü aleyküm ve rahmetullah.

Esselamü aleyküm ve rahmetullah.

Mighty God who creates all, who fills our heart with faith.

We are here for your sake, to bring justice to the world.

God, bless us with victory.

Amen.

Do not let tyranny defeat us, do not humiliate us before the oppressed.

Amen.

-God, give our horses strength. -Amen.

-God, keep our strong swords always sharp. -Amen.

-God, may our faith be our shield. -Amen.

We send our prayers for our prophet Mohammad Mustafa's sake.

-God, answer our prayers. -Amen.

El Fatiha.

-May God answer your prayers. -Amen.

Mighty God

save your soldiers who are willing to give their lives

to protect our holy empire and these lands.

Don't spare the help you give us in our efforts to destroy the Turks.

-Amen -Amen.

Knights, brave solders of Karacahisar.

You are all brave, heroic soldiers, blessed by the Father

Son and Holy Ghost.

Today, in another show of courage, we will finally destroy Ertuğrul,

capture Hanli bazaar and deal a final, fatal blow to the Turks.

Let our cry be "Death to the Turks!"

Death to the Turks! Death to the Turks! Death to the Turks!

Death to the Turks! Death to the Turks!

Our victory will rise from the blood of the Turks!

Long live the Holy Empire!

Long live the Holy Empire! Long live Commander Ares!

Long live the Holy Empire! Long live Commander Ares!

Long live the Holy Empire! Long live Commander Ares!

Sir, the pigeon came.

Who is it from, sir?

Titan. He's killed Ertuğrul, Kostas.

Ertuğrul is dead!

Long live the Holy Empire! Long live Commander Ares!

Long live the Holy Empire! Long live Commander Ares!

Long live Commander Ares! Long live Commander Ares!

Long live Commander Ares! Long live Commander Ares!

The Turks are withdrawing!

Come, Kostas. I want to see it with my own eyes.

Ertuğrul is dead! Ertuğrul is dead!

Look, Kostas. They are withdrawing because their bey is dead.

Thank God.

Titan did a great job again, sir.

Perhaps he'll bring you Ertuğrul's head tonight.

Titan wrote that he was heading to the Cavdar tribe.

He'll meet Bahadir there then return to the castle at nightfall.

My knights!

The brave knight, Titan, killed Ertuğrul.

-Long live Commander Ares! -The Turks no longer have a leader.

Our victory will now be easier and bloodier!

Long live Commander Ares! Long live Commander Ares!

Long live Titan, long live Commander Ares!

Long live Titan, long live Commander Ares!

Kostas, prepare a big feast to be held in the yard.

Let's give Titan a fitting welcome.

-The knights deserve some fun, too. -Yes, sir.

Then we get out of this castle and chop the heads off those broken Turks.

Long live Titan, long live Commander Ares!

Long live Titan, long live Commander Ares!

Alps! My lions!

Heroes! Brothers!

They have their castle walls

they could build a towering mountain range

for all it would matter.

As long as our faith burns in our hearts and noble blood runs through our veins

we will sweep them away with our chests.

Today is the day.

Our battle cries will tear open the skies.

Our swords, sharpened by revenge, will glide into the enemy's side.

We'll hit them so hard that the sound of our swords

will be heard in Nicaea and as far as Constantinople.

That viper's nest will be our enemy's grave.

May our swords be sharp, our battle blessed and our final victory glorious!

Allahuekber.

Allahuekber! Allahuekber! Allahuekber!

God

Aktolgali, my most loyal companion.

Aktolgali, just like I promised you,

the time has come to hit our enemy like a lightning bolt.

-Sisters, over here. -Three, four

One more time. One, two

Well done, Halime Hatun.

Now, practice yourselves. We'll speed up later.

Women!

Women, your sword hand must be as hard as stone.

If you bend your wrist, the slightest move will make your sword fall to the ground.

Come on then, women.

My beauties!

My lovely girls, you are the future of our tribe.

It is you who will advance and prosper through the work you do now.

Come on, then.

One, two, three

four, five, six
