Right, brother. Right.

You were trying to tell me something, but this half-wit Bamsi didn't get it.

Good man.

Well done, my brother.

Thank you for your kind offer, Lady Maria.

We always come here prepared,

but then, it is against our traditions to refuse anything offered to us.

But we must first set up our stands and put everything in order.

Very well, Lady Halime. I'll be at the inn if you need anything.

Good luck.

Lady Aslıhan, Lady Çolpan.

We need to assign the patterns to the women.

You're right, Lady Halime.

But we need to discuss what happens next.

This is our opportunity

to get our beautiful Turkish patterns into palaces all over the world.

Our customers are Franks, Lady Aslıhan.

They don't like Turkish designs.

Let them get used to it. It'll get them used to seeing us.

We will conquer their palaces with our rugs for now,

then our brave men like Ertuğrul Bey can conquer them with their swords.

Let's leave them do their work.

And we'll do ours.

The patterns need to be ready tomorrow.

If we work through the night we'll have them ready easily enough.

I need to leave early, there is a council meeting tonight.

If you wish, Lady Aslıhan can go with you.

Then you can work through the night. We do need to have those goods ready.

She is more than welcome.

My father doesn't know about it. I can't, I'm sorry.

I'll let him know, Aslıhan.

We need to work day and night if we're going to get the goods ready.

We'll be a lot quicker if we prepare the patterns tonight.

Right, Lady Halime?

You are right, Lady Çolpan.

Very well, then. The Kayi tribe will host sister Aslıhan tonight.

And who knows,

maybe a good fellow from the tribe will see Lady Aslıhan and fall for her.

What's up, Bamsi Alp?

Still haven't given up on Turgut?

I have. I have given up on that traitor.

I don't care about him.

He is a donkey.

You can have him, do what you want with him.

I'll take my leave.

I knew my brother wouldn't turn on us.

Yeah

I got a little dizzy after that punch, though.

But it's okay.

His hand is a like a rock, bless him.

Yeah! Ertuğrul Bey will be very happy with this news.

Grand Master, Ebu Nakkas has contacted me.

The long-awaited moment is coming.

I'm putting into action a plan to set the Turks in the region against each other.

I will expect your orders.

Ertuğrul Bey, I thank God for granting me the opportunity

to repay my debt to you before taking my life.

The sand in the riverbed is rich with gold.

The gold was unaffected by the storm because it is heavier

than both rock and sand. It resisted the tide.

It remains hidden amongst the sand on the river bed.

Our task is to remove it and carefully sift through the sand.

There is a cave on the banks of the river.

I would like to sift the sand in that cave.

It'd be safer that way. Do I have your permission?

Do what you think best, master.

Get that gold ready to fill our pockets.

As you command, Ertuğrul Bey.

But the river is deeper and the current stronger than I thought.

We'll need some tools.

Get whatever you need from the bazaar.

But make haste. The council is meeting tonight.

Yes, sir.

My Bey. My Ertuğrul Bey.

Come in, Bamsi, what is it?

My Bey. I went to see Turgut.

It seems that he was faking everything.

He hit me pretty hard, but I'm okay.

Bey, look. Look what he hid in here.

It's an encrypted message, Bey.

But I trust that, with this tool, it will be easy enough to decipher.

I told you I knew my alp.

This letter

leaves me in no doubt that Simon is John the Baptist.

This was a productive day, Lady Halime.

We've already made a lot of progress.

You're right. The women of the tribe are good at this.

Sorry to interrupt your chit-chat.

But the women are tired.

And we should be on the road.

Let's call it a day, Lady Çolpan. We can continue tomorrow.

Let's get things ready so that we can get on the road before dark.

I'll let your father know that you'll be with the Kayi Tribe tonight, Aslıhan.

Don't worry about that.

We have some hard work ahead of us tonight.

I don't want to be a burden on you.

Nonsense, it will be an honor.

Dedicated women of our tribes, thank you for your efforts.

You have done fine work stitching the patterns of our ancestors.

Now it's time to go home.

-Come on. -Let's go.

We'll take care of it if you like it.

Let's have a look at that one.

The scent of pine doesn't suit you, my lady.

The doors and windows of the church I used to attend were made of pine.

This scent took me back to those days.

I haven't visited a church since my marriage.

May God forgive me.

Scent is a very powerful stimulant, my lady.

I'd suggest this one for you. Give it a try.

-What is it? -Musk.

It's found in the skin of the male deer.

It is a scent for the evening.

It is preferred by women who want to impress their men.

What are you doing here, wife?

I like to smell good for my Bey. That's all.

My Ural.

What are you doing here?

Doing what a Bey does at the bazaar.

The sun is about to set.

Why are you not yet on the road?

We're leaving now, brother.

I have something to say to you.

Go ahead Aslıhan, what is it?

I am going to stay the night with the Kayi tribe as a guest of Lady Halime.

We need to keep working to get the goods ready for tomorrow.

Of course, Aslıhan.

We are now fraternal tribes. They are like our family.

My Bey, Lady Aslıhan

-If she's with that caravan-- -Batuhan.

If she is with them, then no one will suspect us.

Oh my.

That man is still alive? I thought he was dead.

He has a life debt to me.

How do you know him?

He used to be a fine master when it came to gold.

When my father was a governor he offered to extract gold for him.

My father didn't accept.

Gold?

Ertuğrul must have a plan if he has set that man free.

Batuhan.

Find out what he's doing at the market.

What he buys or sells.

Find out.

So, Ertuğrul Bey

We'll find out your intentions eventually.

Çolpan, don't be late.

We have things to do tonight.

I've never seen anything like this before.

But I'm certain I'll be able to figure it out tonight.

I'm worried about the situation my people are in, Artuk Bey.

He must have taken this secretly.

We need to get it back where it was before it's missed. So hurry up.

Don't worry, Bey. I'll do my best.

-Good luck. -Thank you, Bey.

Bey, these men have built their lives on cheating.

Cheating is death to valor, Ishak.

They think they can manipulate people into doing what they want with these traps.

What should we do in the face of such traps, my Bey?

By sticking to justice, sincerity,

honesty, our values and our companions,

we can break all these traps, Ishak.

Well said, Bey.

My God, make our work fruitful.

Help Mohammed's followers, my God. Let us be at peace with each other.

Disarm the traps set against us.

Don't let our lawful livelihood be soiled with that which is forbidden.

-May God accept your prayers. -Amen, Bey.

-How is business? -Thank God, not bad.

I'm satisfied with today's income.

We make our earnings by following the ways of the blessed Muhammed.

And we are happy to see traders like you who make their earnings in halal ways.

Yes, you can be happy, Bey.

Yes, you can be happy

yet you do business with a Christian like Simon.

Yet we gave you the skins we had.

And I'm grateful, Bey.

But be wary of Simon.

-Why? -Simon is after you.

He seeks to ally himself with us so that he can grow stronger.

He's the sort of man who gives one and wants ten back in return.

Haven't you just described all traders?

Simon doesn't just get what he wants

he destroys his allies, too.

I just wanted to warn you, Bey.

Ertuğrul, son of Suleyman Shah.

buries his enemies deep in the ground.

Thank you.

My Bey, Lady Aslıhan has come with us. There is some work that needs to be done.

Very well, Lady Halime.

We are to have a feast tonight. You are fortunate, Lady Aslıhan.

Thank you, Ertuğrul Bey.

Thank you for hosting me.

Come now. We have things to do.

Welcome to our tribe, Lady Aslıhan. Please.

Since I was a child,

I've done everything I could to make him love me.

But he

has always treated me like a stepson.

He is so cruel that he is incapable of genuinely loving any of his children.

It's not you.

It is me, my Çolpan. Only me.

He trusts Aliyar completely. Aslıhan, too.

He doesn't care that I exist.

I've suffered so much because of this tribe.

He seems not to care about the hardship I've endured.

He made Aliyar responsible for the business

while he lost his mind in books.

Don't worry, my Bey.

Tomorrow's raid will bring everyone to their senses.

First, he'll lose Halime.

Then his beloved daughter Aslıhan.

Once we've taken control of the rug house, it'll be Aliyar's turn.

Once the things clouding my father's mind are taken away

he'll learn to trust me.

And if he doesn't?

Then

it'll be his turn.

Which female servants were working

on the day Toktamis Bey died, Kutluca?

There were a lot of them, Bey. Aybuke was in charge.

Where is this Aybüke?

Lady Çolpan sent her on an errand, Bey.

She hasn't been around for a while.

We need to find Aybüke, Kutluca.

Don't worry, Bey. I'll find whatever hole she's hiding in.

Take a seat, Father.

What's wrong, Father? Why have you come here at this late hour?

-It's Aslıhan, son. -Has something happened to her?

No, not yet.

But she can't go on like this.

Aslıhan has been rebellious ever since she was a young girl.

Her honest and compassionate nature

has sometimes got her into difficulties.

She'd never listen to me no matter how often I tried.

She has always followed the path she considered to be right.

Everyone admired her beauty.

All these years I never wanted her to be married.

Do you want her married now, Father?

-Yes. -Do you have someone in mind?

I don't want her to go far away.

She'll find peace by the side of a brave and strong Bey.

The Kayi tribe is our neighbor.

I say she'd make a fine bride

for the tribe of Kayi.

He who says "be" and it is done

He who fills our hearts with faith,

with the almighty God's 99 names.

Bismillahirrahmanirrahim.

We have been through hard times,

but thankfully we've come to earn our daily bread.

Hopefully from now on, our tribe will enjoy brighter days.

May God make our peace and blessings everlasting.

Amen.

Enjoy your meal.

Thanks, brother.

Bey

May I?

Go ahead, Ishak.

Bey, this is in Latin.

Are you sure, Ishak?

Ebu

Nakkas

will relieve

the Weeping Rock's suffering

on the first day

of

the

new month.

How do you know Latin, Ishak?

My Sheik Ibn-ul Arabi wanted me to learn it.

He said it might be useful when the time comes.

Hey, my lion. My lion!

We've figured out the wretch.

-Let's tell the Bey, huh? -Let's do it, Bey.

So, Ozan. Go ahead and cleanse our souls.

Hay hay

Here I am on the mountain top

Summer is behind, winter is ahead

Winter is ahead

So it trembles in the lake

Oh, words fall short

Oh, words fall short

Oh, words fall short

Oh, words fall short

Oh, hay!

I am at my wit's end

Let's send the foe to his glory

To his glory, to his glory

Down the road, to Ayvaz

Ride at full gallop

Hey!

Ride at full gallop

Ride at full gallop

Hay hay!

There's no cure, I will go blind

Let me marry Pasha's sister

Pasha's sister

Draw your sword

Behead the foe

Behead the foe

Behead the foe

Aslıhan, my girl, it's time for you to get married.

The opportunity hasn't yet arisen.

I will do as my elders see appropriate.

Opportunity can co-exist with your intentions, my girl.

If you have a young valiant man in your heart

the opportunity will present itself to you.

You just need to have the intention. Ask for a good man to take your hand.

My mother is right, Lady Aslıhan.

Keep your intentions good.

Then God will provide you with someone to love.

Let's find a brave fellow from our tribe for you.

There's no cure, I will go blind

Let me marry Pasha's sister

Let me marry Pasha's sister

Draw your sword

Behead the foe

Behead the foe

Hey!

Behead the foe

Behead the foe

Behead the foe

Ishak deciphered the heathen's code, Bey.

The situation is more complicated than we thought.

There's a spy in the sultan's palace.

Simon will meet with the spy, Ebu Nakkas, in the palace.

So, the treachery has made its way all the way to the sultan's palace.

We need to learn his identity.

Simon is going to meet the spy at the Weeping Rock, Bey.

We can learn it there.

Take this back to Turgut, Dundar.

He'll tell you if he has discovered any new information.

Tell Dumrul to go to the Weeping Rock at once.

Have him check the environment. Observe the location.

As you command, Bey.

Dogan will go to the Weeping Rock and find out who this villain is.

We won't be able to protect the sultan

or these lands

if we fail to discover his identity.

What do you expect Ebu Nakkas will propose at the Weeping Rock, Master Simon?

Nakkas won't make an offer which isn't to his advantage.

Whatever he proposes, there'll be some benefit in it for him.

The real question is

what's in it for us?

The sultan's spy will probably be there. I'll take the necessary precautions.

My dear friend Philip what would we do without you?

I want you to know how much we appreciate your services.

Right, Maria?

The oldest worker at the inn!

How is business Cazgir?

Business is how you want it to be.

Let me know if anything is wrong so that I can make it right.

This is exactly the kind of loyalty and intelligence I look for.

My dear brother Cazgir.

Take the day off, enjoy yourself. Drink all the wine you want.

You deserve it.

I don't drink while working, Simon.

And I don't stop working till closing time.

His wisdom is too great to fit into his physical shape.

Appearances can be deceptive.

You shouldn't trust anyone without first knowing them very well.

Look who's here. You must be hungry.

Have them prepare a meal for Turgut Bey.

So, Turgut Alp. You are one of us, now.

How did collecting go? I hope it wasn't difficult for you.

No, it wasn't.

I gave the gold to Philip.

You didn't mention that, Philip.

There was no time, Simon.

Anyway. Tomorrow will be a tough day.

Enjoy your meal.

And he is one day older

He spends his whole day trying to become just like his father.

His hand was never without its wooden sword.

Such a son is certainly worthy of Ertuğrul Bey.

I was going to suggest we have

the Seljuk emblem on the larger rugs.

Maybe we can add images of birds and the tree of life around the sides.

-That'd be beautiful. -And the earth-colored ones

can have the Kayi emblem on them.

Images of wolves or wolf prints. It'll be very fitting.

Maybe we can add eagles at the corners as well.

What will we use as a dye?

Let's use buckthorn berries. And barberry for the yellow.

The flannel plant for green.

I've seen some near here.

Yes, but using the whole plant would alter the tone of the green.

It'll be a better green if we use only the leaves.

Very well, Halime Sultan.

I can see the outcome before we've even started, thanks to you.

I remember the day Lady Halime first came to the tribe.

Lady Selcan and I could hardly believe the things she suggested.

But she somehow made it possible

by using all different herbs,

and produced a variety of colors we'd never even seen before.

And that's not all.

She came into our lives just as my Suleyman Shah and I

were coming to terms with the idea that Ertuğrul couldn't be tamed

and would never give us grandchildren.

I'm really glad she has.

I hope God gives other mothers a daughter-in-law like her.

Mother

Amen.

May God never take you from our side.

My girl

I also hope God gives you someone to embrace and love dearly.

A brave and decent man.

Amen, Mother Hayme.

-Welcome, son. -Thank you, Mother.

-Welcome, Bey. -Thank you, wife.

Excuse me.

As we must wake before the sun rises, I'd better go to sleep.

Goodnight.

Have you put your business in order, Lady Aslıhan?

Thanks to Lady Halime

we are already halfway towards finishing them.

-Goodnight. -Goodnight.
