Kara Murat, The Guardian of the Conqueror

Back in the days when European armies were active,...

...the Ottoman Empire led by Sultan Murad,...

...the father of Sultan Mehmed the Conqueror...

...was fighting against the Byzantines and the Crusaders...

...in order to revive the sword of Islam and the mighty power of God.

-Do you need me? -You're ruining the fun.

Save your breath. You're going to need it.

These catapults will cause trouble.

-Hang tight! -Kara Murat, wait!

It's my turn, Kara Murat.

Ethem, wait!

Commander Talus, we're retreating. Come and save yourself!

If death shall come, it should come as such.

Save your breath, Ethem.

-Forgive me, Kara Murat. -No, you forgive me.

My dear Sultan. Your victory was as glorious as the ones before.

They left their hopes in the battlefield as well as the dead bodies.

Your victory... -Victory?

It was a great victory for Islam.

Not only we've stopped a nation, we've also stopped the entire Byzantine army.

I know how many people died by my sword much better than you do.

-We'll make peace. -Peace?

Today, we lost many of our men in the name of God and our holy religion Islam.

Men who proved to be heroes when necessary.

What did we get in return?

We brought our religion Islam and the mighty power of God to this land.

The Byzantines are not to be trusted, my dear Sultan.

If necessary, we shall fight until our last drop of blood, for God and for you.

Finish your preparations at once.

Send the army to the Cukur Valley.

-But, Sultan... -Then, general...

Send an ambassador to Constantine.

We'll make peace.

Now, leave me alone.

And tell my son I want to see him.

Kara Murat...

Everybody knows how brave you are.

You make more enemies with your words than you do with your sword.

You've lost a very precious man.

All of our heads can be sacrificed for you, Sultan.

You also have a son, right?

Yes, Sultan. He's 12 now.

A young and brave kid.

You are a loyal man, Kara Murat.

Go to your son and your wife.

Pray that we make peace, so that we don't need you.

We've had enough of war.

Remember, in peace, sons bury their fathers.

But in war, fathers bury their sons, Kara Murat.

My Sultan.

We're going to Cukur Valley.

If you excuse me, I have a question.

Why are we going to the Cukur Valley? -Mehmet!

Constantine is betraying even his king.

He's keeping his armies ready in the Cukur Valley.

If there's no peace, he'll want war.

Let's hope that does not happen.

The best way to secure peace is to prepare for war.

Constantine and the king would want peace.

Too much blood was shed.

But, my dear Sultan,...

...if he wanted war, why would he keep his armies in the Cukur Valley?

That valley is an important area for the Byzantines.

If one shall take lives, that is the place to do it.

If one shall spare lives, that is the place to do it.

Leave those here.

Come on, this way.

Hurry. I need two people with me.

Over there. Stack them.

-Sir. -Yes.

A messenger from the Ottoman has arrived.

Send him.

He has a message for you.

Constantine. You've been attacking my borders for some time now.

These attacks will never be successful.

I'm aware that you will ascend to the throne after a victory against us.

You can still reach this goal if you make peace with us.

I assure you, a victory won without fighting will satisfy your people.

I know you'll evaluate this offer with reason.

I think we can live in peace without losing any more lives.

My father is here!

-Welcome. Welcome. -Hi.

Thank God we're together again. -We missed you so much.

You've grown up!

Dad!

Let me kiss your hand, mother.

My son has grown up so much!

We caught a rabbit while you were away. It was huge.

You mean it was as big as you are!

My father is here!

Okay, okay.

Welcome.

Hi, my dear Nur.

I'm sorry, mother. Ethem...

Just tell me one thing:

Did he die holding his sword?

Or did one of those evil catapults take his life?

He died holding his sword. Very much like a hero.

Ethem was just like his father.

He shared the same fate.

All my sons are dead.

Protect yours, Kara Murat.

Cherish your time with him.

I made your husband the commander of the Byzantine army.

I gave him the best soldiers and ammunition.

And he lost everything to one warrior and some bandits.

He fought bravely.

I don't care about bravery.

All that matters to me is victory. And he couldn't provide it.

I'm afraid you've tired him out, dear sister.

Are you jealous, brother?

Jealous?

He's a real man.

The strongest and the most reputable soldier of the Byzantine Empire.

If he fails me one more time,...

...I'll find myself a new commander.

And you'll find yourself a new husband.

But you don't seem happy.

Aren't you glad to see me?

Of course I'm glad.

Forgive me, I was lost in thought.

You're hurt.

No, I'm not hurt.

I fought a man who I had fought before.

It was years ago. I don't understand how he got as strong as I am.

Kara Murat.

So, his reputation precedes him.

I don't understand how a raider guarding the Ottoman borders...

...could fight that well.

But no other warrior could have a reputation as noble as yours.

My nobility comes from the princess I married.

Talus! My father will die soon.

If you achieve a great victory,...

...people will see you worthy of the throne, not my brother.

He fights for his religion and the Sultan. He's devoted to him.

It's hard to kill a zealous warrior. And he's only getting stronger.

He doesn't care about the throne like we do. He fights for his beliefs.

Wow! You're so much stronger than me now.

I can use a bow and arrow now, right?

Let's ask your mother.

But I just beat you. I'm strong enough.

You're growing so fast, kiddo.

Won't you come to bed, dear Murat?

You go to sleep. I'll come later.

Let me take a look around first.

Constantine...

Welcome, Orhan Celebi.

How was your journey? Was it good?

"Was it good?"

You know that by leaving Sultan Murad and coming here,...

...I signed my own death warrant, right?

So, what's the reason of this visit?

What's the meaning of this peace, Constantine?

My brother is weak and sick.

Everybody is talking about Sehzade Mehmet's return to the throne.

Now is not the time to relent. It's time to finish him.

If I ascend to the throne instead of him, you'll have a good friend.

Your brother is not as weak as you think, Orhan Celebi the impatient.

He even sent me a peace envoy today.

He wants to make a deal.

And I told him I needed some time to think.

I also heard that he's moving his armies to the Cukur Valley.

The Ottoman thinks I'll make peace.

You've proven your loyalty to me, Orhan Celebi.

I understand the risk you've taken by coming here.

But don't worry. -Mehmet is so naive.

Even the Janissaries don't trust him.

If we attack now, the people will want to see me on the throne.

You're a man filled with poison, Orhan Celebi.

Maybe that's why I like you.

But never forget who your friends are.

When I become Sultan,...

...I will never forget your hospitality, dear Constantine.

What's wrong, Talus?

Nothing.

Nothing's wrong.

You need rest, my dear Talus.

You need to be strong.

Aren't you tired yet?

During the battle, I confronted the man who killed Ethem.

But I couldn't defeat him.

I had fought him years ago.

I thought he had died there.

Look, Murat. The battle is over.

The Sultan has declared 10 years of peace.

Why are you still sad?

I'm afraid of peace. So are my men.

They know that the Sultan is weak. That makes them anxious.

Still, until the peace is disturbed, you're not a warrior, but a husband.

Focus on your wife now.

The time will come when you have to face your enemies again.

Come on.

Sultan Murad's illness was getting worse.

His son who was going to change the course of history was upset about this.

But he couldn't show his feelings.

Sultan Murad asked him to conquer Constantinople...

...and get rid of the traitors within the empire.

Mehmet, who would soon return to the throne,...

...was well aware that his enemies would be happy about this.

But he was no longer the little heir who had left the throne.

He was now that great commander that the Prophet Muhammad had talked about.

Mehmet is the heir to the throne.

His mission is to conquer Constantinople.

All I have is this ring.

Sell it.

With the money, hire someone to read the Quran at my bedside.

A dark shadow has descended upon the Byzantine Empire now.

-Long live the Sultan! -Long live the Sultan!

-Long live the Sultan! -Long live the Sultan!

-Long live the Sultan! -Long live the Sultan!

God! Heads are bare, chests are shields. Eyes see blood, hearts are wide open.

On this ground, we sever many heads. No one asks why, that's how it ends.

Our valor and our swords give the enemy hell.

Our devotion to the Lord, the Sultan knows it well.

Salute to his era! -God is great!

The Sultan has given the throne to his son.

Well, well.

Mehmet is young and weak.

The generals and the Janissaries are worried.

Now is the time to attack.

Now?

Right in the middle of the fun?

Come on. Even the thought of it drives me crazy.

I'm telling you. We have no time to lose.

We should attack before Mehmet becomes too strong.

Okay, but I'm going to make peace with the Sultan.

Nobody expects you to keep your promise.

Oh, you're making me sad.

So you're saying that I'm not a man of his word?

Didn't you also join forces with me?

I did but, this tone of yours is so mean and rude.

Your tone should be one of Byzantine propriety,...

...dear Orhan Celebi.

So, what do you suggest?

Let's say, a friend of ours...

...for example, the Hungarian king declared war against Mehmet.

While they fight and get weaker day by day,...

...and we get stronger,...

...what else can I do but watch, as a man of peace?

King Ladislas and the Crusaders are going to fight?

Everybody has a price, dear Orhan Celebi.

Even you.

Sneaky Byzantine games.

Mehmet will fall from grace and...

...you'll find a good, grateful friend on the throne,...

...dear Constantine.

-You haven't found him yet. -What? What did you say?

He's not ready.

Who are you?

I'm the only one who can secure your victory.

Your fate has been written.

A new sultan shall rise.

Great battles shall be fought.

If he lives, he shall conquer Constantinople.

He shall be called "The Conqueror".

You must kill him before that.

Start with his companions. -Kara Murat.

Kill him first.

Then, the one who is "The Conqueror".

If he dies, the Great Empire shall fall.

If he lives, it shall be our hell.

The fate of that child can be no other.

And your fate is to kill them.

Sultan Murad has abdicated.

Mehmet has ascended to the throne.

Sultan Murad has abdicated.

Mehmet has ascended to the throne.

This will cause a problem.

Come on! Come on! Come on! Drop him!

You're playing such a dangerous game by joining forces with Orhan Celebi.

It's no more dangerous than the game...

...your husband plays with those barbarians.

I don't trust him.

Of course you don't. I don't trust him either.

But don't worry.

I have plans for our Ottoman friend.

I have plans for your husband as well.

Mehmet is weak.

The Byzantines will attack.

We should side with Orhan Celebi.

Only he has the power to bring the empire together.

Orhan Celebi is a Byzantine puppet.

Do you want to collaborate with the enemy?

I will never collaborate with the Byzantines.

However, Orhan Celebi is a strong man.

He could discipline them.

The generals support him as well.

Rasit, the horse outside your house, whose is it?

It's mine.

So, go and feed it.

You'll need its strength and loyalty soon.

Do you have land to build homes and live in freedom?

Yes, we do.

-Who gave you that land? -Our Sultan did.

And aren't we honorable warriors?

Yes, we are!

So, aren't we going to honor our Sultan?

Aren't we going to be loyal to him when he needs us?

We are!

Of course we are! What makes us strong?

Our heart, body and honor make us strong!

What makes us strong?

Our heart, body and honor make us strong!

You should leave the job of killing the captives to the executioners, Talus.

Fighting for his life makes a man strong.

So, it's good exercise.

You mean, you're not afraid of death?

Death will find us eventually.

I prefer death finds you while you're fighting for me.

I heard the Sultan has abdicated.

You heard right.

-I'm ready to fight. -Not now, Talus, not now.

I sent a messenger to King Ladislas.

So, you'll have someone else fight our battle?

Where's the honor in that?

Don't worry. Your time will come too.

Now, send tax collectors to the area.

To meet the requirements of our Hungarian friend and the Crusaders,...

...we need to collect taxes.

Send someone else to collect it.

I can lead the army, I can fight.

You belong to me. You shall follow my orders.

If you don't, Talus, I'll bury you in that hole along with your barbarians.

You should leave that job to the servants.

I should cut their hands because they touch you.

What? Are you jealous?

No, I'm not.

I'm angry. -Angry?

There's a war going out there,...

...but the best commander of the lands is not fully armored and on his horse.

Do you think I'm happy with that?

Don't let Constantine humiliate you.

This land should be ruled by a soldier like my husband.

That's what the people want.

-What do you expect me to do? -Go and kill Kara Murat.

His death will be your victory.

You learn faster than your father.

Giddy up! Giddy up!

Wait here.

What are you doing here? -We're here to collect our taxes.

Since when do the Byzantines collect taxes in this land?

Anybody living in this land is obligated to pay their taxes.

Your master's orders are meaningless to us.

Threatening us would be a mistake.

If you don't pay, the entire army of Commander Talus will attack you.

-Who? -Commander Talus.

-Where is he? -In Morea.

Go now.

You'll pay for this insult!

All Turks will pay!

You'll pay with your wives! Your children!

When given an opportunity, you should take advantage of it.

Especially when that opportunity is given by a Turk.

Attack!

You insulted me and my people by coming to our lands.

You asked for money that you didn't deserve.

Tell your Commander Talus:

He won't be getting anything but Kara Murat's sword.

And he'll get that soon enough.

Now, get lost!

Don't ever come back!

Give the money to whom it belongs.

He sent the man away.

The Byzantines are collecting money in preparation for the war.

We should be prepared as well.

Instead of surrendering to the enemy, we'll honor ourselves in the battle.

Instead of paying taxes to be slaves,...

...we'll fight for the freedom of our wives and children.

And we'll die on the battlefield as free men!

Yeah!

Evil Constantine had set his plans in motion.

Generals of the Ottoman Empire...

...knew that the peace settlement was in fact a treacherous plan.

So, they kept the army ready for war and they didn't leave the Cukur Valley.

Evil Constantine sent a letter to the young Sultan, filled with lies.

Constantine was hoping to bribe the Hungarian king and his army.

So, the young Sultan would lose the battle.

And the Sultan knew he was on the verge of that battle.

The Ottoman Army and the Raiders...

...began preparations to intercept Ladislas's army.

"My dear ally.

First of all, we're deeply saddened by the sudden sickness of your father.

And your ascension to the throne has happened in such a hurry.

I would have loved to be present at your ceremony.

I'm writing this letter to submit a very important matter.

As you know, we're in a peace settlement process.

And we lost a battle against you. My armies are weak.

I heard that the Hungarian King Ladislas is planning to attack you.

I believe the attack will come in less than a day.

In order to strengthen the friendship between us,...

...I wanted to break the news immediately.

Don't forget that Ladislas has never lost a battle. He knows how to fight."

Then, Kara Murat reached for his sword and killed them all.

The tax collector ran away. -Who did you say?

What was his name?

-Kara Murat... -Where did you hear about him?

Where is he? -At a day's journey from here.

Pack up, we're leaving.

-Okay, fine. -Come on, let's go.

Let's go. Come on.

I hope your King Ladislas shows no mercy to my thief nephew.

And I hope your spies show no mercy to the bandit called Kara Murat.

Fear not. We won't be worrying about Kara Murat after this battle.

You'll take care of the village and your mother until I come back.

Okay, dad.

Did you like it?

I'll catch a bigger rabbit with these before you come back.

Remember my words. Take care of your mother.

-Dad. -Yes, son?

You'll come back, right?

I will, my son. I promise.

Goodbye.

Goodbye, my dear Murat.

Keep this close to your heart until I come back.

It will be around my neck as long as my heart beats.

Kara Murat, may God give you speed.

As the Sultan of this empire, this land...

As the commander of this army, these heroes...

I'm here, in the name of Islam, in the name of this land as a mujahid.

God! Who sent the holy book, made the clouds move, defeated the armies,...

...and did justice. -God is great!

Defeat those armies with your justice. Be with us on our journey.

Amen. -Amen.

See? Who are they?

Run! Cavalry is coming.

Where did they come from?

Who are they?

The men are not here! Oh, God, help us!

What are they doing here? What do they want?

-Where is he going? -She's old! What are you doing?

-Where is he? -Who?

Your master, my slave.

Kara Murat is a slave to no man.

Especially not a worm like you.

No! No! Don't!

Set this place on fire!

Set the entire village on fire!

Erase it from the face of the earth.

-Grandma! -Run, kids!

Run! Hurry! This way!

Help!

What's wrong? We should celebrate.

Today, on the battlefield, I had hoped to face an old enemy...

...and finally put a ghost to rest.

The Byzantine Talus?

Yes, Talus.

I was worried because he wasn't there.

Walk with me, Kara Murat. Walking helps.

Yes. We should take a walk.

It was a battle that will be remembered by the children of our children.

Ladislas was truly a strong enemy.

And the battle was so intense.

You fought well, my friend.

Your father would be proud of you.

You're a brave warrior now.

You will become even better.

As brave as you are?

Maybe.

He loved you like a son.

Look, Yusuf.

He might have trained me to take his place, but you were his son.

He loved you like a son.

A son who could never replace him.

If I die, you'll replace me.

Brother, if you die, I'll die with you.

If you're looking for someone to replace you, look somewhere else.

Let's cut this serious talk.

Wait here. I'll bring something to drink.

We have a victory to celebrate.

Son, the Byzantines came looking for you.

When they couldn't find you, they first killed Mustafa.

Then, Nur...

My beautiful Nur. They killed her as well.

They left no one alive.

When they couldn't find you, they went mad. They set the village on fire.

They turned the place into hell.

Yusuf told everyone you were dead.

He said "I'm the leader now".

And he took everyone behind the mountains.

I couldn't leave.

I couldn't walk away from the land of my sons.

Enemies of the state had achieved their goal.

Deep inside the forest, in a secluded place,...

...preparations to execute Kara Murat had begun.

Where have you been?

I went looking for him.

Is it the blood of Kara Murat that you're washing away?

Is the blood of a son the same as his father's?

No honorable warrior should see these things. Even in their worst nightmares.

They told me Kara Murat was dead.

You and your brother look down on the Ottoman Empire.

None of your plans are going to work.

He's not dead. He'll come back for me.

We have unfinished business.

Sinan is forcing us to be allies with your uncle Orhan Celebi.

An uncle who has eyes on my throne.

And he'll try all kinds of tricks to have it,...

...with the help of the Byzantines.

You should get rid of the traitors among us before it's too late.

I'm afraid it may already be too late, my dear Sultan.

If we eliminate the source of the poison, then it's not too late.

Morea?

If we conquer Morea, all eyes would be on Constantinople.

I admire your determination, my dear Sultan.

But Morea is impassable.

There is an unyielding mountain on one side.

The other side is surrounded by high walls.

It means certain suicide, even for our army.

General!

If Mohammad's religion shall rise with my blood,...

...swords, go ahead and chop me to pieces.

Nothing is impossible.

One should strive for the impossible to find the limits of what is possible.

It seems that your plans have fallen through, brother.

Ladislas is dead.

The Ottoman Empire is still not defeated.

They aren't, but they lost crucial power.

Why risk myself by openly fighting them?

Besides, Orhan Celebi did a great job.

The generals and the Janissaries are rising against Mehmet every day.

By the way, I have good news for you.

Kara Murat is finally dead.

And the Ottomans still think I'll make a peace settlement with them.

You must be a fool to trust Orhan Celebi.

Who says I trust him?

I'll wipe him off of this world once he ascends to the throne.

As long as your husband is willing.

My son.

Nur.

My son.

Don't waste your time murmuring, soldier.

No one can save you.

Nur...

If I were you, I'd take a good long look.

Because you won't ever see it again.

A prisoner who hides in the deep forest. He'll be found guilty of treason.

And he'll be executed.

Good job, general.

You'll be rewarded.

People won't believe he's a traitor.

If you kill Kara Murat, my 1000 men are yours.

You're right, my hero.

We'll take the throne together.

And thanks to you, we'll save this land from the Byzantine tyrant Constantine...

...and we'll take the lead of our empire.

The Great Empire is swarming with traitors.

My uncle and the warriors who betrayed you have their eyes on the throne.

Turning away from the enemy is cowardice.

My aspirations are high.

Loss is the enemy's share.

Even their dreams cannot reach the places where my power reaches.

Today, you'll be reborn, to sow fear amongst the enemy.

You will be my sword.

God bless you, Kara Murat.

Bravo, Talus. Bravo!

Their swords will become helpless before ours.

They will die by the thousands.

The survivors will see the terror.

Raise your arm.

My sister told me you're having bad dreams.

Constantine, you shouldn't worry about my dreams.

If your plan fails, we're done.

Morea would be gone.

Commander Talus. My fearless warrior.

Why are you so worried?

We were going to celebrate.

You went to bring some stuff, but we could never celebrate.

I heard you're leading the raiders now.

That's to be celebrated.

I should be the leader anyways. I deserved it.

Being a leader is not being a Sultan. You have to earn it.

There's not much to talk about.

Since I'm the leader...

You were no leader to our people. You betrayed them.

Your father knew you were weak.

I was his son.

I should cut your throat.

You don't deserve to live a single second more in this world.

You'll rot in hell, but I won't be the one to execute you.

Your nephew is hurt. He's suffering.

He'll want revenge.

He has no choice but to send his armies.

I'm not sure I can be as comfortable as you are about his attack.

Because there are thousands of soldiers in his army.

If he has an army of thousands...

Look around.

I have an army of hundreds of thousands.

If he wants to conquer Morea,...

...he has to defeat me in the Cukur Valley.

I'll bury his dreams in that valley. He won't take Constantinople or Morea.

Constantine has gathered all his soldiers in Cukur Valley.

Morea is defenseless, general!

We must certainly defeat them in Cukur Valley.

But general, even though our army is stronger, we're outnumbered.

We can enter Cukur Valley, but we might not get out.

You're right. I've been thinking about that.

Generals! We fear nothing but God.

Prepare the army to enter Cukur Valley.

Prepare to die. I have planned a surprise for them.

Look, I didn't want to kill your wife and your child.

Don't speak of them!

Just because I'm telling you this, don't think that I'm scared.

Since you came here, you must be longing for your death, Kara Murat.

I am your death.

Get up!

I said "get up"!

Kill me, but preserve my honor.

Tanya!

Tanya, hurry. We're leaving.

-Where? -Come on!

-Where is Talus? Let go of me. -Forget about Talus now.

I said we're leaving. -Let go of me!

3 Years Later

Kara Murat, thanks to you...

The Ottoman is no longer afraid of the fires of Morea.

Not thanks to me. Thanks to the courage of their leader, our dear Sultan.

Kara Murat...

Yes, my dear Sultan.

This is not the end. This is just the beginning.

Oh, my Lord.

If it shall conquer your heart, I shall pass a thousand tests.

Otherwise, I don't want this conquest.

I don't want Egypt. I don't want the world.

I'm the Conqueror. Istanbul is right before my eyes.

I shall burn this city for a single smile on your face.

I don't want to reign, if it doesn't put a smile on your face.

I don't want Istanbul.

I am yours. You are my master.

I want no other master or love.

I want for nothing.
