What do you think you're doing?

Take your hands off of the--

Bamsi!

Commander, I'm a doctor. This is my job.

The governor is in a critical condition. Let me do my job.

You're all suspects as far as I'm concerned.

I will not let any Turks touch the governor.

Commander Vasilyus.

It's thanks to Artuk Bey that I'm alive today.

I'd trust him to care for my father any time.

Keep your delusions to yourself.

Artuk Bey

Do what you need to do.

Don't let my father die.

Don't worry, my dear. I'll do whatever I can.

Everyone, leave the room.

Father

Helena, come on.

I'm here, Father.

I'm here.

Soldiers!

Don't leave the governor alone.

If they try anything, show no mercy.

Commander, we do our job

for God, and for God only.

Watch your mouth.

Then you'd better pray that the governor lives.

My daughter Aslıhan

After her mother's death,

she held on firmly to both her tribe, and her family.

That's why she's still unmarried.

And now

she's afraid of losing us.

My sister is a timid, but

loving creature.

Young people these days are all airheads.

However, Aslıhan Hatun is not like that.

Candar Bey brought her up well.

Aslıhan Hatun would like to

marry a man that he wants.

Then,

what I must do

is win over her heart.

Aslıhan.

Tell me.

Who wouldn't want to live in a palace?

Who wouldn't want to be the wife of a powerful man

like His Highness Emir Sadettin?

Don't you see, this is a once in a lifetime opportunity?

You walked all over a man who loved you.

He's not just anybody, Aslıhan.

What about me?

What about my feelings?

Are you having second thoughts because of his age?

His heart is young.

He'll make you and your children happy.

I told you.

My heart is with my tribe.

How can I leave my tribe

and go live in a palace?

I'm coming!

You

What did you do?

Is this how you treat your father, your tribe?

You asked me how I really felt

and I told you.

You told me how you really felt?

What the hell is that?

Do you realize how much you've damaged the alliance between His Highness and me?

Wasn't it you who agreed to marry Ertuğrul

out of respect for our tribe?

So, what happened?

Why would you humiliate me like this?

Unless

If

Please, Father, just give me some time.

How can I leave my tribe, my brothers, and you?

Come to your senses!

Aslıhan, come to your senses!

You'll do what's necessary for the good of our tribe.

Understood?

Do you understand?

It's a trap!

Finally, we've found the jackals in wolves' clothing.

Did we find them, or did they find us?

Come!

-For God! -For God!

Turgut Alp, we've got this. You go after the heinous jackal!

We questioned all the merchants, sir.

They didn't see the assassin, nor did they see anyone suspicious.

Any news from Turgut?

My daughter

Helena, your father wants to see you.

Father! Father!

Father!

You should go in as well, priest.

How's his condition, Artuk Bey?

We're losing him, sir.

Write a letter

to the emperor

and tell him what has happened.

Father, I beg you, please don't talk.

Don't tire yourself.

You'll get well, Father.

The innocence

of Kayis must be declared.

Ertuğrul

Ertuğrul

I trust you with my daughter,

Ertuğrul Bey.

Protect her

from this traitor.

I'll protect her with my life.

I swear on my honor.

You're going to live, Father. Okay? You're going to live.

You will live.

Father?

Father!

Father! Father! Father!

Father!

Father!

Please don't die!

Damn it! Why did you take him from me?

-Father! -I shouldn't have let you out of the fort.

I told him, but he wouldn't listen.

Enough! No more, Vasilyus! Didn't you hear him?

My father trusted Ertuğrul Bey so much that he entrusted me to him.

Even as he drew his last breath, he spoke of his trust for Ertuğrul Bey.

How dare you talk like this?

He just died!

What are you after?

Helena, I was like a son to your Father.

Can't you see just how much I'm hurting?

Then, at least honor his memory by grieving his death.

I can't grieve until I punish those responsible for this!

Soldiers!

Make the arrangements to move the governor's body to the keep.

Helena.

I'm sorry.

Just like your father,

and your brother,

they killed him, too.

Stay strong, don't let this break you.

Stay strong, so that you may take my revenge.

Just before he died, he told me to write the emperor a letter

to declare your innocence.

I won't let this honest man's death be in vain, Helena.

Now it's your duty to shoulder his burden and remain in this keep.

Show them you're a worthy daughter to him.

I'll always be watching you.

Now

Wipe your tears away, but keep your hatred alive,

so that we may avenge your father.

Father!

Father

Father!

They ambushed us.

-Did he get away? -I tracked him.

However, he ran with a horse.

What will we say to Ertuğrul Bey?

If he wants our heads for this, we haven't got the honor to argue.

You are right, brother.

If the governor dies?

Then the blame will be put on Ertuğrul Bey and our tribe.

So, Ural Bey

Let's see if you're as clever as you are strong.

It's been a long time, Your Highness.

You already admit defeat, huh?

Poor Ural.

You must be passionate in every game,

otherwise you are doomed to lose.

Your Highness, I've a lot to learn from you.

Politics is a game.

You sometimes cheat.

A man can't win if he doesn't risk losing.

I didn't see that.

That's how thirst for victory blinds you.

Tame your greed, Ural.

Do the same in the battlefield.

Think about the outcome, don't be rash.

If you don't sacrifice a pawn when necessary,

you can't win.

Sir, may I enter?

Come.

Be quick about it, we're battling it out here.

They killed the governor of Karacahisar at Ertuğrul Bey's public market.

Damn Ertuğrul!

You've ruined my plans again!

-May I enter, sir? -Come in, Kutluca.

What is it?

I must tell you something, sir.

Come, sit.

Sir, I've no knowledge of science.

However, I saw you solve the mystery of Toktamis Bey's death from just his tongue.

Thank you.

What's bothering you, Kutluca?

That night, Aybüke Hatun cooked dinner on the orders of Çolpan Hatun.

But Aybüke Hatun hasn't been around since the day Toktamış Bey passed.

She's come now.

What are you trying to say, Kutluca?

She's behaving suspiciously, sir.

Send for her.

I'd like to know where she went, and why she's come back.

As you wish, sir.

Welcome, my sister.

Know that I'm proud of you

for speaking honestly before my father and His Highness.

But also know that if you don't want to,

I won't let you ruin your life just to please Father.

Whatever decision you take

know that your brother is on your side.

Thank you, brother.

Let us hope for the best.

There's some unexpected news from the public market.

What happened?

The governor

was visiting Ertuğrul Bey.

While they were walking around together

they killed the governor.

What?

Emir Sadettin says Ertuğrul had something to do with it.

In the past, I supported him

thinking he was a brave, clever man.

I stood by his side, not heeding my son Ural.

Look how much damage he's inflicted on our state.

Now all of Byzantium will rise, even the Crusaders.

The Mongols are attacking on the other side,

so we'll be sandwiched between them.

I told the Sultan time and again.

I said that this kid would just do whatever he wanted,

that we couldn't control him, but it was all in vain.

Your Highness, what do we do now?

We must find who did it as soon as possible, Ural.

I

will write letters to the Crusaders.

I'll send them condolences from Sultan.

We'll solve this in peace.

What about Ertuğrul?

Is it true, Father?

Unfortunately, yes, my son.

Ertuğrul did it again.

But Ertuğrul Bey and the governor were getting along so well.

Ertuğrul is very good at letting down his allies, Aliyar.

Brother, what good would it do Ertuğrul to see the governor dead?

Sometimes, on the steppe, man's hunger for victory cannot be satisfied.

He wants more and more.

I just don't think a man like Ertuğrul Bey would let this happen in his own inn.

I wish life itself actually cared about what we deem likely and unlikely.

Alas, life only cares about the truth.

And the truth is that Ertuğrul Bey brought our state to the brink of war.

It's our duty to fend off this danger.

In any case,

all the neighboring Turkmen tribes must be notified.

Good.

Candar Bey.

Make for the public market right away

and extend my condolences to Commander Vasilyus.

Also, as margrave, tell Ertuğrul that

he is not to take a single step without letting you know first.

From today onwards,

I'll take the reins.

May I enter?

Çolpan Hatun said she felt unwell, so we came here.

We thought we'd make soup for her.

But we found her dead body.

The poor girl died in her sleep, in peace.

Nobody touches her body until Aliyar Bey sees it.

Understood?

Artuk Bey.

What did we promise to the people here?

Didn't we vouch for the security of this inn?

How can we keep ruling this market

when men can come out of nowhere and kill our visitor?

Sir

This attack was deliberately carried out in the public market

in order to undermine your authority.

Unfortunately, the poor governor was the victim.

The best answer for those that would benefit from this,

would be to find the bastard responsible and bring him to justice.

I already know all this, Artuk Bey.

The problem is that that bastard shouldn't have been able to enter the market.

Sir.

As you know very well, this place is a market.

People of all religions come here from all over.

How can we know who comes for what?

You will know, Artuk Bey.

You will know!

We've been fighting for so long.

You'll tell apart our enemies from our friends with a single glance.

Our enemies must know that they will be punished

before they can draw their bows and swords.

Sir.

We followed that bastard.

But it was a trap.

We were attacked.

Some of the men died.

We couldn't catch him, sir.

Turgut!

Turgut!

I didn't make you a commander for you to be ambushed,

for you to let go of those bastards, and let men under your command die!

Isn't that right, Turgut?

Forgive me, sir.

Forgive me.

Look everywhere.

Find that heathen and bring him to me. Understood?

Turgut Alp.

Our bey is very disappointed that he was unable to keep his promise.

Don't be offended by his words when he's troubled like that.

Artuk Bey, he's right.

We failed to do our part.

However,

I will not rest before I catch those plotting bastards.

I must go now, Artuk Bey.

Helena Hatun.

May I enter?

May I enter?

They killed him, Bamsi.

They killed my father.

He died in my arms.

But I

I couldn't stop it.

Helena Hatun.

This is God's will.

Crying out in misery doesn't look good on you.

You must now stand upright and look to ensure justice.

There is no more justice in this land, Bamsi.

In Karacahisar

I knew something was rotting in our country.

I knew it, I saw it.

However, I couldn't speak of it.

At long last, that rotten thing

in your own ranks, killed my father.

I have been left all alone in this world, Bamsi.

That's not true, Helena.

You are not alone.

First, you have God with you.

Then you have Ertuğrul Bey.

You have the whole Kayi Tribe with you.

And And

You have Turgut and Doğan.

You have Halime Sultan.

You don't know her yet, but you have Mother Hayme as well.

Mother Hayme is the mother of all mothers.

And then

And then

You have Bamsi.

Which is me.

You are not alone, Helena.

I thought the Turks remained true to their word.

But apparently not you, Ertuğrul Bey.

This was an attack upon us, not you.

In my own inn, any arrow shot at my guest is an arrow shot at me.

We will take the arrow out and return it to where it belongs.

Know this.

Ertugrul, son of Suleyman Shah keeps his promises.

You promised the governor as well.

But you didn't keep that promise. His funeral ceremony is today, Ertuğrul.

Don't forget this.

If you can't find those responsible,

the Byzantine government will keep its promise and destroy you and your inn.

When the time comes,

we will put a leash on those dogs.

We'll show them proper manners, and we'll hang the traitors responsible.

We will see, Ertuğrul Bey.

We will see.

May I enter?

Come in.

Hello.

Hello.

Welcome.

Thank you.

I heard the news. I'm sorry.

His Highness Emir Sadettin Köpek would like to extend his condolences.

Thank you, Candar Bey.

At times like this, it seems clearer who our enemies and friends really are.

We want to establish peace in these lands.

I sincerely hope other Turkmen tribes are of a similar opinion, Candar Bey.

I must go now.

I'll take the body of the governor to his friends.

How can I help?

Laskaris, you have proved your worth to Commander Vassileios.

Until the day we kill all the Turks and rid these lands of them,

I am unworthy, Petrus.

It's now time to start the holy war, and rid this holy land of Turks, Laskaris.

Tell me what to do.

You'll act as a merchant coming from Constantinople.

You'll head for Cavdar Tribe to fuel Ural's anger and ambition.

You will ignite the fuse of judgement day, Laskaris.

Light it
