NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

Thank you, dear.

Thank you.

Ever since he arrived,

he made his intentions clear.

He dared to threaten me in my own tent.

What does he want from you?

A council, as soon as possible.

He wants to become bey.

What will you do, Aslıhan Hatun?

I won't give up my cause.

I'll look after my brother's legacy.

And we wish to protect Ertuğrul Bey's legacy.

But Dündar Bey thinks otherwise.

Hope for the best.

Dündar Bey wants to sell the Hanli Bazaar

and go live with his brothers Gündoğdu and Sungur Tekin.

What do you think, Halime Hatun?

Mother,

when I have difficulties,

wherever the issue comes from,

the Kayis used to have my back.

If you go as well,

what will I do then?

Calm down, dear.

Nothing is certain yet.

Let the council start,

let's see what happens.

Turgut will soon come.

We will never leave you alone, neither he nor us.

Aslıhan Hatun, the molasses is boiled.

The women want you to taste it first.

Let's hope for the best.

Now, let's go see the women.

Let's go.

I serve Mihalis. I swear, I don't know anything.

I'll kill you if you don't tell me who Mihalis's master is.

Who is it?

Stop, enough.

I'll talk.

Simko!

Enjoy it, Mother Hayme.

-Well done. -Enjoy it.

Women!

Well done, it's delicious.

Thank you, Hayme Hatun.

Aslıhan Hatun.

Karaca Hatun.

Bahadır Bey's wife.

Welcome, Karaca Hatun.

We've seen your legendary friendship with Aslıhan Hatun firsthand.

Thanks, Karaca Hatun.

I hope that when Bahadır Bey is set up in his tent,

our friendship continues.

As long as Aslıhan Hatun stays here, our friendship will continue.

I'm disappointed,

given that when her betrothed, Turgut Alp, returns,

Aslıhan Hatun can't stay here.

She'll go to his village.

Don't be so sure about...

who will live where,

Karaca Hatun.

What a disloyal man you are, Ertuğrul Bey.

Since when does the wolf bow before the coyote, Simko?

Leave us, Ertuğrul Bey. Save yourself.

Let him go, scum.

Their lives...

are in your hands.

Surrender,

or I'll kill them all.

You won't get away with this, Simko.

Ertuğrul killed two of our men, Simko.

Damned Turk.

What's that?

We found this pigeon on the horse of one of Mihalis's men.

Now we know how Ares got his news so fast.

Let it fly for us now,

so that Ares...

will know that I have Ertuğrul.

When he does, he'll prepare our gold.

Get ready.

We'll spend the night in the cave.

Will you sell the bazaar and migrate?

Nothing is certain yet, Karaca Hatun.

Really?

Dündar Bey spoke with Bahadır Bey.

He said that after being elected bey, he wanted to sell the bazaar.

When did Bahadır Bey speak to Dündar Bey?

When Emir Sadettin invited him.

They met there and discussed the issue.

When Dündar Bey said he wanted to sell the bazaar,

Bahadır Bey asked to buy it, so that it would still be ours.

Excuse us, dear.

Coyotes waiting for carrion, huh?

You'll only get...

my bloodthirsty sword.

Show your face.

Show yourself.

Who are you?

Who are you?

Ertuğrul Bey.

Why didn't you go?

Why didn't you save yourself?

We do not leave our comrades behind, Pito.

Was it worth it for a thief?

How many times have I told you

not to approach Ertuğrul?

Go there.

Let him go, Simko.

Do what you want to me.

Do you know...

how many slaves I lost because of you?

You cost me a lot.

A lot.

We're almost there.

We'll sell these slaves

and then hand you to your owner.

Then, I'll leave this place.

That scumbag who ambushed me...

knows you and your intentions.

He'll kill you.

Even if you get your cursed gold,

sooner or later,

he'll kill you all.

Now,

if you let us all go...

and tell me who plotted against me,

I'll kill him,

and save you and your men from him.

Ah, Ertuğrul Bey...

Even you aren't strong enough...

for him.

If you were,

you wouldn't have walked into that trap.

Do you see the results of Dündar Bey's decisions, Mother?

If Bahadır Bey buys the bazaar, his claim to be the bey will be stronger.

Then we'll have turned our backs on Aslıhan Hatun.

Aslıhan is my daughter.

And the bride of my village.

First, we must solve our own problems.

-The solution is obvious. -Mother...

Bahadır Bey wishes to defeat Aslıhan Hatun and become bey.

So, our solution is to sell him the bazaar?

Whomever pays the full price can have the bazaar.

Even if it's Bahadır Bey, it's acceptable.

And Aslıhan Hatun?

You're not only...

harming us, but her too. Don't you see, Dündar Bey?

Aslıhan Hatun is no stranger to our village.

My brother left her to us.

I will always respect her.

She can live in my village with her man.

She'll never come.

She'll keep her word to Aliyar and will stay in her village.

You'll lose Turgut,

along with her.

I'm against your decision, Dündar Bey.

I'll support Artuk Bey from now on.

Keep that in mind.

Marya.

How could you do this, Marya?

I gave you a new life.

Speak.

Emir Sadettin sent news, sir.

Dündar Bey agreed with Bahadır Bey.

The inn will be sold tomorrow after the council.

We have to do this soon, Lukas.

We can't risk it.

Any news from Mihalis?

Not yet, sir.

A pigeon arrived, sir.

Must be Mihalis.

Dear Ares, all the men you sent are dead.

I still have Ertuğrul.

For 10,000 gold,

you can prevent a great war against the Seljuks.

You'll hear from me soon.

If you don't pay me,

Ertuğrul will learn it all.

I won't be responsible for what happens afterwards.

Simko.

Simko.

-He killed Mihalis's men. -How is this possible, sir?

He still thinks Marya will serve him.

If we find Marya's contact,

we'll find them too, sir.

Go now, Lukas.

Kill them all.

-All of them. -Yes, sir.

Door!

Marya...

Marya.

You'll tell me everything, Marya.

Everything.

Permission?

Come in.

Come.

Come.

The food is almost ready.

We'll eat together.

Thank you, Bamsi.

But we're not here for that.

We came to discuss something important with you.

Good, go ahead.

Come, Halime Hatun, Artuk Bey.

Bamsi,

we feel your pain.

You did everything you could for Ertuğrul Bey.

But...

you can't change fate.

Get a hold of yourself.

Get well.

Remember your duty.

Duty...

Artuk Bey...

What is this duty?

Dündar Bey wants to sell our rightful Hanli Bazaar.

And will make us migrate to Gündoğdu Bey's village.

It's time to rise up, Bamsi.

If we don't rise up,

our cause will be forgotten.

Both me and Halime Sultan

will do our best to reverse Dündar Bey's decision.

We need all our comrades

to stand with us, Bamsi.

Anything can be forgotten,

but the cause...

the cause can't be.

I'm ready... to do anything

that you need.

Tell me, what can I do to

prevent this calamity?

Tell me.

Artuk Bey will not rest idly.

He'll try to undo my decision

with Halime Hatun.

They'll go to all the Alps and beys.

What should we do, Dündar Bey?

We have to talk to every Alp

and every bey, one by one

to convince them.

Balaban Bey and Elkoca Bey have doubts.

I'll talk to them personally

and convince them.

Giresun Bey,

İnanç Bey is your brother-in-law.

He'll listen to you.

Convince him before the council begins.

As you command.

Thank you.

Say that staying...

means losing money.

Yes.

But if we sell the bazaar, the gold...

will be spent for our village.

We'll have more animals.

When we migrate,

the Kayi villages will unite

and become stronger.

Tell that to everyone.

As you say.

Bamsi, the council is tomorrow.

Artuk Bey is a candidate.

We need the Alps and the beys on our side.

The Alps respect you.

They listen to you.

Speak to them.

Speak with the beys supporting Dündar Bey

and convince them to stop supporting him.

All right. All right, Halime Hatun.

All right, don't you worry.

I'll speak with all of them.

I'll do it.

I'll talk to the women,

so that they can convince their husbands

not to support Dündar Bey.

I'll do my best

to help you, Halime Hatun.

Thanks, Hafsa.

I'll talk to each bey.

I'll tell them all the troubles we'll have

if Dündar Bey has his way.

If we don't prevent this,

all our martyrs will curse us.

This is an issue of life and death for the village, Bamsi.

The duty falls on all of us.

The duty...

falls on all of us, Halime Hatun.

Don't you worry.

I'll do my best.

Yeah...

I'll do my best.

Marya.

Either you speak now,

or never.

I beg you, don't do anything. I'm innocent.

Marya.

Marya.

Talk to me.

Your life depends on it.

I can still forgive you.

I can still love you.

Just tell me the truth.

Don't do anything to me.

Have mercy, I'm innocent.

Marya.

Talk.

Last chance.

I'll talk.

Don't do anything.

I'll talk.

Simko had a man.

Antheus.

He made me do it all.

He gave me to Simko, to send me to your castle as a slave.

He wanted me to...

hang that letter on your door.

Why wait this long?

That Turk they have,

they waited to cure him.

You betrayed me, Marya.

Please forgive me.

I had to.

They threatened to kill my little brother they have as a hostage.

This Antheus...

Where is he?

Save my brother, please.

We'll serve you until we die.

I won't let you perish.

Since they've trapped you,

I'll save you from them.

Tell me.

Where is this Antheus?

Master Simko, Antheus sent the men.

And the letter?

Was it delivered?

Ares has the letter.

Marya did her job.

Good.

Now I have Ares in my hand.

He'll give me back all my gold.

They're numerous.

We can't get away.

I don't care about myself being a slave. I'm only sad for you.

Don't be sad...

for anyone, Pito.

There's always hope before death.

We...

just have to find it.

Ertuğrul Bey,

I can say that I've never seen a braver man than you.

But there's no more hope.

All hope is gone.

Hopelessness is a sin, Pito.

We're ordered to never

stop hoping for Allah's mercy.

I don't fear death.

But...

if I die before using my last breath

then I'll go to hell.

What will you do?

Tell the slaves...

to get ready.

We'll fight one last time.

Get the slaves up.

We're going.

Glorious and Holy Emperor,

the Turkish villages on the border are miserable.

The Seljuk Emir Sadettin will do anything for his own ends.

For now, I'll run the Hanli bazaar with him.

But the bazaar will soon be completely ours.

For our holy goal,

it's time to destroy the Turks and take back everything they've taken from us.

I want you to send me...

a great army, and someone worthy...

to run the bazaar for the glorious victory that awaits us.

Your loyal servant,

Tekfur Ares.

They're back.

Welcome.

Welcome, my bey.

The brave warriors are back!

Welcome, brave warriors!

Thank you.

At last, brothers.

They have come.

My brothers are back.

Thank God.

At long last,

they have returned,

thank God.

Welcome.

My sons.

Welcome.

Thank you, Mother.

My son, my child.

-Welcome, son. -Let me hug you.

My son...

-Welcome Turgut. -Thanks, Mother.

-Our son is back. -Welcome, son.

My brave son.

My brave son.

Welcome, all of you.

You've come back alive, thank Allah.

You've brought joy.

Thank you.

We did our duty

to our Sultan and our state.

We've proudly returned...

to our village.

Welcome!

Welcome.

You've brought us joy.

You've made our village happy.

Thank you.

-Turgut Alp. -Artuk Bey.

Welcome.

Welcome.

Welcome, son.

-Welcome. -Thank you, Mother.

Good to see you, brother.

You've unleashed hell upon the enemy

and come back, huh?

-We did, brother. -Well done, brother.

You seem well.

You've gotten better.

I did, indeed.

I did.

Welcome.

Thank Allah.

You're like a lion.

What's the matter?

Why have they gathered?

We're electing a bey, Turgut Alp.

We'll talk in the tent.

Get some rest.

We'll talk inside.

The pain left behind...

by our Ertuğrul Bey...

is still fresh, Turgut Alp.

So fresh that...

Dündar Bey wants us to...

leave everything behind and migrate to the village of...

Gündoğdu Bey.

Mother Hayme.

Dündar Bey.

Is Halime Hatun right?

The council is for this?

We wish to sell...

the bazaar to unite the Kayis.

As they were before.

We wish to be one and strong.

We...

fought alongside Ertuğrul Bey for years.

We lost many men.

If we do this,

won't we betray his memory, Dündar Bey?

Of course... That's betrayal, brother.

It sure is.

When Ertuğrul Bey fell,

our village had troubles, Turgut.

Dündar Bey had this decision to make.

The Kayis must be united.

Artuk Bey is against Dündar Bey's decision

and wishes to be...

the bey himself.

The council will decide.

Aslıhan Hatun has a problem too.

Her uncle Bahadır Bey came.

He wishes to migrate with his village.

Who is Bahadır Bey?

Is he good?

Not at all, Turgut Alp.

The same as Ural.

Mother Hayme.

Dündar Bey.

The Alps just returned from war.

We have martyrs.

Let's not abandon their families on this day.

You should be with them, with the men.

If you agree, Dündar Bey,

the council should be tomorrow.

That would be better, Dündar Bey.

We can't have a council with the families in mourning.

As you say.

I agree that it should be postponed.

Thank you.

I have to get to the Cavdar Village.

They have martyrs too.

I have to give them...

their dead and my condolences.

May they rest in peace.

Amen.

Brother.

I'll come along. I'll accompany you.

I'll go alone, brother.

You go to your Alps.

All right.
