Who is this, Dad?

The ancient Greeks called him Atlas, Cihangir.

He was one of the children of Iapetus and Clymene.

According to the story, he was sentenced to carry the world by Zeus...

...for attacking Olympus.

He carries the world ever since.

It is said that because the weight is so great...

...we can hear his screams as a storm and see his tears as rain.

Is that why you called me Atlas?

What was my fault, why I was punished?

Cihangir.

My son...

Where is the physician?

I'll get right on it, your Majesty.

Cihangir...

My lion.

My bright faced prince do you hear me? Cihangir...

Cihangir.

Son...

This weight is too heavy, father.

Speak.

This weight is too heavy, father.

Too heavy...

Any news about Rustem and Mihrimah?

They have arrived safe and sound to the palace in Uskudar, your Highness.

They are safe.

No one will think they're hiding there.

Your Highness, it's best that they are there.

It's hard to tell what will happen when Prince Bayezid is no at the capital.

The rebellious could have marched on the palace.

Everyone wants to hurt us

We're everyone's targets

But I'm not complaining.

I can endure any hardship.

I can pass any test.

I just don't want my children harmed.

I wish Cihangir was here now. He would give me joy.

Why did he insist on leaving?

I'm sure the death of Prince Mustafa had its effect on him.

Where were you until my son became sick?

You should have treated him long ago!

Your Majesty, the prince is not sick.

That's because he does not eat or drink anything.

Is there no cure for this?

Are you that incompetent on science and wisdom?

We'll boil some herbs and make ointments to regain his appetite, your Majesty.

Hurry up! My prince must recover as soon as possible!

Lokman, I want Cihangir's favourite dishes to be cooked.

His table shall not be empty even for a moment!

Boil pepperweed, cinnamon and walnut leaves now.

The prince's illness is much more deeper.

In his heart, in his soul.

What can those herbs do for him?

Do what I say. Don't stir up trouble.

His Majesty is furious already.

Using your absence as an opportunity...

...rebels surrounded Mihrimah and Rustem Pasha's palace, your Highness.

They wanted blood.

- Are they okay? - Thank God they're alright.

What about my mother?

She tried to go to Mihrimah Sultana's palace when she heard..

She managed to reach the palace

It's not just me who's in pain for my brother Mustafa.

The soldiers are naturally angry, furious.

It seems that, Sokollu...

the waters will not calm easily..

It will all pass, Mihrimah. These terrible days will pass eventually.

- We'll overcome everything. - I hope so.

Don't you know what happened to Mihrimah and me?

Mehmet Pasha told me.

Oh...

So you know everything,

but you don't even say you're sorry to hear?

You don't care about those wretches trying to kill us, is that it?

You know well that's not the case, mother.

You and Mihrimah are both a part of my soul.

But these happen for a reason.

You...

Rustem Pasha...

And maybe Mihrimah...

You helped that executioner...

...who has killed Mustafa.

You gave him strength.

If the people are rioting, you should know it was your fault.

You're wrong.

It's those who were putting ideas in Mustafa's head..

It's their fault.

Whose fault it really is, mother?

Mahidevran Sultana, who's mourning for his son?

Or maybe Mehmet, an innocent child?

I saw them mother.

I saw them both.

They looked like the living dead. Like their souls were crushed...

- Bayezid I-- - That's enough...

...Mother.

If we keep this conversation I'll utter even worse words.

And I know you won't take it.

And then we won't be able to look each other in the eye.

Please have a sip, your Highness.

You will regain your appetite. Come your Highness, please.

You'll regain your strength.

Your appetite will be better.

Only a sip, your Highness, please.

- Go away. - Drink it.

Go.

Get out.

Cihangir.

First you will take the medicine...

...and then eat your food.

You must do it to recover.

Please Cihangir, open your mouth.

Come on, come on now.

Cihangir, open your mouth. Open it.

I told you to drink it.

Open your mouth, drink this. Open it!

You will drink it, open your mouth!

Son, you have to drink it. Otherwise you won't get better!

Open! Open your mouth!

I told you to open it! Open it!

Open! Open it!

Cihangir, my son!

This will pass, you'll be better son.

Your Majesty.

Your Majesty, mother wrote you a letter.

She's worried about Cihangir's condition.

She knows the recent incident was hard on him.

I need to send a reply to her.

Don't make them worried.

Cihangir will get better. He has to.

Yes, your Majesty.

Your Highness.

Good news, finally the message has arrived.

Read it quickly. What does the prince say?

Gazenfer Agha sent it.

It must be important.

I've been having nightmare for days.

Is it bad news?

Precious and mighty Nurbanu Sultana,

I was in deep sorrow as we did not hear from you.

But in the end we got your letter, which greatly pleased us.

Praise to God, Prince Selim is healthy.

But the state of Prince Cihangir is not good.

He fell ill with despair.

Therefore, Prince Selim his Highness could not write earlier.

But do not worry, your Highness. I'm always with him.

I hope you are okay too. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

If you wish for something, all you need to do is inform me.

God be with you, Gazanfer.

Such a loyal man that Gazanfer.

He was with me since the first day I came.

You too.

What would I do without you...

Everything is alright, your Grace.

Guards are on duty day and night.

No one can enter here.

Good.

- Bring Sinan Pasha here. - As you wish.

I'm surprised. You and Sinan Pasha are very close lately.

He has helped me a lot lately.

He turned out to be a good man.

That's how a brother should be.

Otherwise, it's no good carrying the same blood.

It can be your brother who backstabs you in the end...

You mean me?

If I knew that Mustafa would die, I would never have stolen his seal.

I don't mean anything. What happened, happened.

Prince Mustafa is dead.

And we're stuck here. Let's pray that this ends.

Mihrimah, you have to sacrifice for might and power.

There is no other way.

We didn't send many guards to the mansion in Uskudar...

...to not attract attention with activity.

This will be better for the safety of Rustem Pasha and Mihrimah Sultana.

Can you rely on these guards?

Don't worry, your Highness.

They're loyal soldiers who've been at my command for long.

Rebels are scattered around, your Highness.

They do not have a commander.

They'll soon disperse before we have to act.

I knew they'd cause a scene.

But I never thought it would come to this.

I hope it will be as you say, Sokollu.

I hope the incident does not get any bigger.

Sultana. Sultana.

How do you feel?

What do you think, Bayezid?

There will be a Quran recital for the 52nd day of Mustafa's passing.

- We will feed the poor. - I'm ready to help, if you need any.

My lion of a prince.

Believe me, I do not know how we can cope with this pain.

If Hurrem Sultana had not infected his Majesty with hatred, get to his head...

...the prince would now be alive and we would not suffer.

The only thing that consoles me, is what happened to Rustem and Mihrimah.

Everyone gets what they deserve.

Sultana.

Watch your words.

Mihrimah is my sister.

I do not want her to be harmed.

Besides, she has nothing to do with my brother's death.

She's innocent.

Innocent...

Do you really believe what you said?

The ones who did nothing while the prince marched to his death...

Those who were silent...

Do you think they're innocent?

Is your mother innocent?

You were just demanding answers from her, accusing her yesterday...

That matter is between me and my mother.

I said it out of anger.

I cannot blame my mother without evidence.

He is aware of everything.

He's in pain. He can't take this.

However, he can't throw his mother into the fire.

When Hurrem's sworn enemy, our prince was alive, they were all at ease.

They will now fight each other.

Then all hell will break loose.

And then, they will weep..

- Someone's there, did you see? - No, your Grace.

Keep an eye out anyway.

No one can find you here.

Be calm, the palace is protected by my most trusted men.

That's good.

How is Hurrem Sultana?

It's obvious that she's nervous. But she'll overcome surely.

Prince Bayezid returned to the capital.

Sokollu was going to explain the situation.

I am lucky to have you with me during these difficult days.

I'm glad you've come, brother. I'm glad you've found me.

I cannot trust anyone but you.

Me too.

We've couldn't see each other for years.

You...

You chose to trust me.

- You could have chosen otherwise. - I made the right decision.

You proved that to me with every step you took.

My brother...

Atmaca?

We thought you were dead.

I was so happy when I got your message.

Treat me like a dead man, Huseyin.

God knows I'm worse than dead.

We've lost the prince.

I could not protect him.

How did this happen? Where have you been?

I set out to give the signal to Taslicali Yahya.

They shot me and I fell.

I tried to get up, but could not.

I was seriously wounded,

I lost consciousness.

When I woke up, I was in a mountain cabin.

A peasant found me and dressed my wounds.

When I told him that I was the prince's guard...

...he started to cry.

He said he was killed.

That Prince Mustafa was killed.

I managed to kill the traitor Hikmet.

Rustem Pasha managed to escape.

That's why I came here.

To avenge the death of Prince Mustafa.

And how did you come here?

I escaped from the camp with a few trusted friends.

Without wasting time, we started chasing Rustem and surrounded his palace.

We almost got revenge...

...but that dog escaped in a disguise.

He will not escape any longer, Sergeant Huseyin.

Have you found the place where he is hiding?

My son. Calm down, Cihangir.

It's alright.

It's okay, my child. You will be okay, my son. It will pass.

Your Majesty, are you okay?

Let's go outside, get some fresh air.

Your Highness.

There's only one cure for this pain. Opium.

- There's no other way. - Not yet.

What are we we waiting for? We've tried all painkillers! Nothing helps!

Your Majesty.

My Cihangir...

Cihangir...

My lion...

What are you waiting for? Do something!

- There's nothing we can-- - Your Majesty...

If you allow us...

We can give the prince some opium syrup.

Did you say opium?

What matters is the dose, your Majesty.

There's no risk if we don't overdo it.

Give him.

Your Highness.

Drink this. It will ease your pain.

It's not a burden on his back.

Where I come from, it's believed that it's a sign of God.

The prince saw the angels before coming to the world.

He has their wings.

Who's there?

With the opium, he's relaxed, your Majesty. He fell asleep.

Your Majesty,

we can prepare a herbal syrup for you as well if you want.

There's no need.

His Majesty suffers from the same illness as the prince.

They both suffer from a guilty conscience.

One of them suffers for killing the prince...

the other suffers for not preventing it..

Mind your own business.

And do not talk without permission again.

Yakup?

It's closed Agha! Don't you see that everything is destroyed?

It's me, you idiot!

Sumbul Agha! Is that you?

Easy Yakup, easy! Good God!

I am doing everything to not be recognized, disguising myself...

...and you're about to announce it to everybody!

Good job, agha. Even I couldn't recognize you.

See what they did to our place.

All our hard work was for nothing.

With God's help, I'll put it back together.

Good thinking, Yakup. I'm here to talk about this.

I trust you with the shop.

Sure, your life is precious. You ran away as soon as the problem arises.

Watch your tongue!

Hurrem Sultana wants me to be with her in the palace.

They won't let me live here anyway.

Everyone knows that I serve Hurrem Sultana.

If you take this path once, you can't go back. I understand it now.

It's good. I have the shop for myself now.

I can add some milk to the coffee now. This is good...

I leave the shop to you but not for good. The shop is still mine.

I'll come often, get my money and give you a share.

Be careful, do not mess up the account.

I'll have you hanging in the market!

Do not worry, Agha. You will get half of everything I earn.

- Did you say "half''? - Did I?

- You said half. - I didn't.

- You said. - I did not, I said "half of the half.''

After all, I'm risking my neck here.

You're comfortable at the palace. All you can drink and eat.

But here, ''Go there Yakup'' ''Come here Yakup''...

You sulking demon!

Fine then. Have it your way.

- Stay safe now. - Let's say our goodbyes.

Yakup...

Prince Mustafa was a great warrior.

On the battlefield, he'd swing his sword with his heart, not with his arm.

He was our hope, they took away our hope.

Atmaca.

-Come, Sergeant Huseyin, come.

Meet Hasan Agha.

We'll kill that demon Rustem thanks to Hasan.

No Atmaca, I can't do it. I can't kill Rustem Pasha.

They won't let me in the chamber without searching me.

- Security is on high alert. - Don't worry.

I won't let anyone have that pleasure.

I'll kill him personally.

Your duty is something else.

I left the shop and returned to you, your Highness.

I'm here now, with you.

May God help us.

Your presence will give me strength, Sumbul.

On these difficult days I want to have my most faithful friends whom I can trust.

You left everything and came here. You made me very happy.

It's a great honour for me.

Even when I was out, I always thought about you.

Your Highness...

I can see you're worried even when you smile.

Forgive my daring, but...

These are not the eyes of Hurrem Sultana,

who was fearless, faced every difficulty,

and challenged even the most valiant enemies.

You're right, Sumbul.

My greatest enemy died...

...and I still did not find peace.

My children will fight each other.

I'm afraid that those who want revenge will get what they want.

I'm afraid that the curse of Prince Mustafa will find me.

His death also took away so much from me...

Cihangir.

Come.

My lion of a prince.

My son...

I talked to the doctors, it's not the time for that.

I know you're angry at me.

You are furious.

You are in deep sadness, but it will end someday.

These clouds of sorrow will disperse, Cihangir.

Even if you do not forget, you'll get better.

You'll move on with your life.

But I will not heal.

As I have no right to mourn.

Even if want to, I cannot.

How can I mourn someone whose life I took with my own hands?

How is this possible?

Inside me, there are two Suleiman's, son.

One is the ruler of 3 continents,

and the other is a father.

From the first day since I ascended the throne,

The sultan has been fighting with the father.

Because I came through blood and death.

I experienced it personally. I saw it.

I spent a lifetime on the battlefield, son.

I did not know what it means to love my own children.

I didn't get any love from my father.

I learnt only fear from my father Sultan Selim.

And I swore to myself that I would never be like him.

You know that when a man makes a promise, devil goes after him.

Cihangir...

The day Mustafa died, 40 candles were lit in my heart.

They will never go out.

Not even one will go out.

Until I breathe my last...

Thank God, it's calm around.

Soon these days will pass.

We'll return to our palace.

His Majesty will give me back my position after the campaign.

Hopefully.

How can you be so sure about it?

What if it doesn't happen?

Kara Ahmet Pasha seems like a tough man.

Governing a country is not like sword fighting.

To survive, you need a to have a strong will against all lies and slanders.

Does Kara Ahmed Pasha have this?

I don't think so.

But I have.

But when I am with you, I don't care about power and position.

Your love comes before all.

Everything is for you.

Come in.

- Your Highness! - What happened?

Dozens of people armed with swords and torches...

...are headed towards Uskudar on boats.

- What is it about? - I don't know.

But Rustem Pasha and Mihrimah Sultana might be in danger.

Open the door. I must see the Pasha immediately!

- Rustem, what's going on? - Come in.

- What? - Your Grace...

They're coming. They've located you.

- God protect us. - Calm down, Mihrimah.

Humasah, daughter..

Mother, I'm so scared!

Don't be afraid, we are here.

Let's go, you have to hurry. We must get out of here at once.

- Where have you been Hasan Agha? - I could barely make it.

- Where are they? - This way.

Come on.

Rustem, are you sure we can go through here?

What if they capture us?

This path leads to the grove. Don't worry, we'll get out of here.

No!

- What does you mean? - I will not come with you.

I will not risk my daughter's life or mine.

They want you. Go stop this uprise.

I don't have the manpower to do it, Mihrimah.

They'll destroy me if I step outside.

Then they'll destroy you and my daughter.

Lets go!

Guards, give them Rustem Pasha.

Are you defying a Sultana's order?

- Mihrimah, move it - No!

Move it!

Spread out, search everywhere!

Where is that demon Rustem?

I don't know Agha, I really don't know!

Quickly, open this door.

Come on, open it!

Hurry up, hurry!

Are you okay?

Come on, open the door!

Rustem, come on, faster!

You had one job!

Is it here?

It leads to the grove beyond the palace. They must have gone through here.

They are coming, Rustem, hurry up! Open this god damn door!

Get out and check the place. Check if anyone's there.

This is your fault. We're stuck here because of your brother's idea!

Mihrimah, shut up!

Bring it! Break down the door!

We must leave at once.

No, what if there are people there?

Mihrimah they're everywhere. They're coming!

It's clear outside.

Come on, quickly.

Come on aghas, come on! Come on!

Hurry up! They'll escape!

Run!

God damn it!

- Stand back, Mihrimah. - Rustem!

Protect us!

Do something, Rustem! Rustem!

Rustem please do something!

Rustem, do something!

Rustem!

Mihrimah!

Bayezid! Bayezid, we're here!

You fools!

Who do you think you are, pulling a sword against a Sultana?

Brother?

Where are you going?

I'm going to war, Cihangir.

Take care of my mother and Mihrimah.

Do not tell anyone anything, okay?

Don't be scared. I'm not going alone.

I made a herbal syrup from St John's wort, daises, and lemon balm.

It'll help you fall asleep, your Majesty.

I can't stop it.

Take it.

My feet are in pain too. The ointment you gave me did not help.

It hurts even more.

You haven't slept for days, your Majesty. You're exhausted.

It seems that your gout relapsed.

How is Cihangir?

He is same, your Majesty.

Opium is a temporary cure for his pain.

However, when the opium wears off,

the prince feels his pain even worse.

Never leave him alone.

He is my precious.

It's like that his Majesty brought the army here...

...only to kill my brother.

No one talks about Tahmasp or the Persians.

All that hatred just disappeared.

His Majesty is shaken by Prince Cihangir's condition.

It's natural for him to not think about war.

How does Cihangir feel, Pasha?

They started giving him opium to ease the pain.

Your Highness, send your brother from the camp as soon as possible.

His pain won't stop while he's here.

His Majesty is also suffering, seeing him like that.

Prince Cihangir must return to the capital.

How can I say this to his Majesty, Ahmet Pasha?

No one can even come close to him.

I told him but he didn't answer.

If you face him bravely--

No, Pasha, no!

I will not do it.

Do you know who survives in life, Pasha?

The ones who know when to run and stay in the corner.

I advise you the same.

Because if courage was enough, Mustafa would be alive now.

Who's there?

Who are you?

His Majesty sent you, didn't he?

If you came here to make me eat, don't bother.

So you like poems too.

When did this starry skies begin to revolve?

When will this beautiful dome be destroyed?

Thank God, you've come back safe and sound. Are you all right?

How can I be alright? We almost died because of Rustem.

Thank God, my brother arrived in time to save us from this hell.

You are one of those who started this fire, Mihrimah.

- What do you mean? - You know well what I mean.

What are you doing? This is not the time to argue.

And you're arguing before me! It seems the incident unnerved you.

Excuse me.

My lion, my prince, you've done me the world of good.

I did not do it for you, Mother.

I went there for my sister.

It will pass, your Highness.

His anger will subside. Just don't give up on him.

The effort he made to save us was praiseworthy.

You will stay in the Marble Palace for some time, Rustem Pasha.

We'll be more careful this time.

What about Mihrimah Sultana and Humasah?

Mihrimah wants to stay here. That is also my wish.

They will stay in my mother's chamber.

This is a temporary measure, Rustem Pasha.

When the situation calms down, you will return to your palace.

Come in

Prince, your Highness.

The rebels are at the gate, they are gathering in front of the palace.

He will never leave the palace again.

- We should have finished him last night. - He should be thankful to Prince Bayezid.

What does he have to do with him, Atmaca?

I could not risk the life of Prince Bayezid.

Why is that?

He is Hurrem Sultana's son.

We could have got rid of him also.

If I leave this world, don't let my blood or my cause be unavenged.

- Your Highness-- - There is only one way, Bayezid.

You will go to him and swear your allegiance.

And you'll be with him until he takes the throne.

Give me your word.

Atmaca.

Prince Bayezid was loyal to our late prince.

They loved and supported each other.

He will not be harmed.

Understand?

If this fire keeps spreading, there's no telling who will it burn..

News of uprising comes from everywhere. This is just the beginning, you will see.

The crowd is getting bigger. Guards should intervene immediately.

What will you do, your Highness? What are your orders?

What is necessary, Sokollu.

I will stop them.

Pasha your Grace.

As you know how the prince is impulsive.

You have to keep him away from danger.

You've been with him for years, Lala Mustafa.

You're also to blame for his behaviour.

Go down to the cellar. You will be there until the danger's over.

What about you? Won't you come with us?

I need to see Bayezid.

I don't know what will he do. I need to talk to him.

- Fahriye, do not leave Mihrimah Sultana. - As you wish.

Sumbul.

Your Highness.

Lala Mustafa.

Is the prince in the privy chamber?

No, your Highness. Unfortunately not.

The prince is playing with fire.

Your Highness, please think again.

The moment you step outside the palace, you will be in danger.

Talking won't solve anything. On the contrary, they'll gain strength from it.

They'll think they have defeated you so they'll come down on your harder.

Do not intervene, Mehmet Pasha.

If you're afraid, you can go back to the palace.

Do you hear the voices, Hurrem?

They want you and Rustem.

Your Highness.

Bayezid, this outfit suits you.

- Selim! - Your Highness!

God forbid!

Brother Selim, will it hurt a lot?

You can't even imagine...

Your Highness, don't worry.

I'll be there for you personally.

Selim...

What have you become?

I know that look.

You've been looking at me like this for so many years.

With pity.

In your eyes I am a freak, right?

You're being unfair, Cihangir.

I always loved you.

But you never loved me back.

You never loved me like you loved Mustafa and Bayezid.

If you felt that way...

...I was unfair to you, brother.

Yet, I...

I loved you brother...

I loved you.

I said everyone has some faults.

Some carry it in their soul...

...and others on their back.

I loved you, brother.

For God's sake, stop being stubborn and start eating, Cihangir.

Then you can hate me, or not even look me in the face if you want.

Take me to the capital, brother.

Please.

Please don't let me die here.

God forbid, Cihangir, what are you saying?

Brother...

Brother...

It's the first time I'm asking you for something.

Take me to Istanbul.

Please...

Prince?

I am the son of the ruler of the world, Sultan Suleiman...

The regent of the Sultanate, Prince Bayezid!

May God rest his soul, Prince Mustafa has been unfortunately executed.

No one here could be more upset than me.

You have lost a prince,

but I lost a part of my heart, part of my blood!

You should have sent that dog Rustem instead of Bayezid.

Is he that precious to you?

I did not send anyone.

- Mother-- - Hush.

What can anyone do?

This is the order of Sultan Suleyman.

Neither you nor I...

...can oppose the will of our great ruler.

We cannot question his decisions.

As his subjects, you are obliged to obey him.

Give us Rustem Pasha, your Highness!

His Majesty punished Rustem Pasha by removing him from the position he held.

However, he is still the son-in-law of the dynasty.

That's why I won't give him to you.

I will not give him!

Prince Mustafa would not want anyone to be harmed.

He wouldn't want any wives to become widows, or children to become orphans.

If you do not disperse now, there will be blood.

Nobody here will be spared!

I understand your pain.

Your pain is my pain too.

However, the path you took is wrong!

I don't want those who love Prince Mustafa to get hurt.

Prince Bayezid is a brave man.

Prince Mustafa loved him for a reason.

Lets go.

What will happen with Rustem Pasha?

If he doesn't come to us, we will go to him.

My brave prince.

Praise be.

The world has never seen such a brave man.

Do you see, Mother?

Bayezid has all the qualities a Sultan should have.

Look how he silenced them all.

I see your father in him, Mihrimah.

I see Sultan Suleiman Khan.

And your late brother Mustafa.

Doesn't it scare you, Hurrem?

Doesn't it grieve you?

Prince Selim his Highness is here.

Let him in.

Your Majesty.

If it's not important, return to your tent.

It's Cihangir, your Majesty.

I know you want him by your side...

...but Cihangir is not well.

It's hard for him to recover as long as he's here.

Being with you...

Being around you...

Looking at your face does not do him any good.

Are you saying that I caused this to happen?

I wouldn't dare, your Majesty.

When he looks at you, he remembers his bad memories.

Cihangir will stay here with me!

He will get used to my decisions and the consequences of those decisions.

You will also get used to it. You can leave.

Your Highness!

Head physician, I would like to see His Majesty.

My brother Mustafa is here too, right?

Cihangir.

I was told you were not afraid at all.

My brave little brother is not afraid of anything.

If you are with me, I will not be afraid of anything.

Cihangir...

Your Majesty.

Are you okay, my prince?

I'm alright, your Majesty.

I'm free of my pain and suffering.

Thank God!

Your Majesty,

since we've come here...

Let's go to the Aleppo marketplace.

There is a famous artist who paints paintings on the walls.

I want to see him. Maybe I'll convince him to come with us.

We will get to know the names of other artists.

Maybe they will also come with us.

Cihangir?

Our prince feels much better.

Selim.

We were just talking about bringing famous artists from Aleppo.

What do you say, your Majesty? Wouldn't it be nice?

You thought well. Why not?

Your majesty, why don't we take a walk?

You promised to go hunting with me.

Fatma Sultana spared no expenses, your Highness.

In honour of Prince Mustafa, she fed the poor and gave money to those who need.

And Prince Bayezid donated money to charity for his brother's soul.

May God accept it, what can I say?

The dead cannot return from where they went..

You should at least show yourself at the Harem, your Highness.

They haven't felt your shadow for long.

I want to do nothing.

Never have I felt so much distress.

Even If I wanted to describe it, I couldn't.

When I'm in Istanbul...

...sometimes I run away from the palace and go across the Golden Horn with a boat.

But don't tell my mother.

She gets worried for nothing.

There is a place where you can see the palace, Hagia Sophia and Uskudar.

Directly above Tophane.

From there, I watch the palace.

It's much better to look at it from afar than being inside of it, your Majesty.

Cihangir,

are you okay?

Muhyiddin Ibn Arabi his Holiness says;

Oh man, your body is human, but your mind is God.

We are composed of thoughts, your Majesty.

This body is not mine.

This hump is not mine.

Your Majesty, it's best we return.

Cihangir is not himself.

The prince is right, your Majesty.

The medicine he uses must have blurred his mind.

Cihangir, let's go back to the camp. Come on.

Not yet, your Majesty. Brother Mustafa hasn't arrived yet.

He will be devastated if he can't find us.

Let's wait a little more.

Mustafa is never late.

Cihangir.

He will not come. Your brother Mustafa will not come.

He promised me, your Majesty. He said he would come for sure.

Cihangir...

Your brother Mustafa will not come. He will never come.

Your Majesty, Mustafa always keeps his word.

He'll come

Cihangir, son! Your brother will not come!

He will never come, he will not come!

Cihangir, son?

Cihangir? Cihangir! Cihangir!

52 days have passed since our prince left this world.

52 days, Melek.

How easy it is to say...

I can't even think what Mahidevran feels, when we're in this state...

God help her.

Attention! Hurrem Sultana her Highness!

Sultana.

Lady Gulfem.

How dare you come here?

Let us have our pain in peace.

Let us mourn.

We came here to share your pain.

We have no other purpose.

Everyone knows who wants what.

The whole Empire knows.

Those who are responsible for the prince's death will be punished.

And not in the other world, but in this world.

Death will bring death.

Both of you have no place here.

Enough!

Your curses don't work on me.

I am Hurrem Sultana!

The strong survives.

The strong wins.

That is the order of the world!

Prince Mustafa was weak and he died.

But I'm still alive.

Cihangir is a gift of God for me.

A sign from him.

The victory of perfect mind and heart...

...over the imperfect body.

Cihangir is my voice of conscience.

That's why I wanted him to be here with me.

I wanted him close.

Take him to the capital, Selim.

To my palace.

I cannot lose one more son here.

Do not worry, your Majesty. I will be with him.

Get out! Get out!

Your Highness... Your Highness, your hand!

We should call a physician now.

There's no need to. Dress it!

You were right, Fahriye.

They are trying to step over me as I keep quiet.

Come in!

- What is it? - It came from the camp, your Highness.

Prince Selim sent it. It's urgent and important.

Open it.

It's enough.

Cihangir!

Cihangir!

It's you...

I know...

Sirin?

Asli?

Leyla?

I know you from books.

You came here to take me, right?

His Majesty is not well either.

But I know how to help him. Let me talk to him.

It's not your duty. Mind your own business.

Head physician!

Yes, your Highness?

Give me some syrup!

Forgive me but you've taken too much. I can't give you anymore!

Give me the syrup!

Give me the syrup!

That's an order! Give me syrup!

Mother, don't do this! It's so dangerous.

Mihrimah Sultana is right. The rebels came to the palace.

Mother, please don't do this. To leave here means death.

Aleppo is on the other side of the world.

Bayezid, I was coming to see you.

Selim says that Cihangir is very sick.

He says your brother is miserable.

Doctors, cannot cure him.

I have to go to my child. I need to see him.

Bayezid, no! You know the situation.

You will go, mother.

We will go to my brother together.

Bismisah Allah Allah! Hu!

Hu!

My path is your path.

My arm is your arm.

My heart is filled with loyalty.

My faith aligns with yours.

My head...

My head..

...is devoted to your cause.

My head is devoted to your cause,

My life is in your service,

My possessions...

My possessions are sacrificed in your honour.

My tongue is the interpreter, The command of the righteous guides me,

I have witnessed...

I have witnessed the essence of salt, water, and bread.

If I stray from the path...

May your sword...

May your sword be swift upon my neck.

- In the realm of truth... - In the realm of truth...

- With the utmost devotion, - With the utmost devotion,

Oh Ali! Hu!

Hu!

Cihangir...

What are you standing for? Do something!

Your Majesty, there is no hope left for the prince.

It's too late now.

What are you talking about, head physician?

How is it hopeless?

What do you mean it is too late?

I want to see my prince on his feet!

Do something immediately!

My prince will be healed and you will do it! Come on!

Your majesty, don't.

Where is she?

Cihangir?

- Where is she? - Son? Tell me.

The beautiful girl in white who brought me roses...

Where is she, father?

What is he talking about?

Our prince said that a beautiful girl in white is visited him in the tent.

This is probably a dream because of the opium.

Son...

''There are those whose souls the angels take in comfortably and pleasantly.''

''They reveal themselves to the evil as a horrible monster...

...and a beauty to the good ones.''

So have said God.

Get out.

Get out!

Cihangir.

Your Highness...

Don't do this. Don't let yourself go.

If you fall, the world will fall.

My Cihangir...

Father!

Son! I'm here with you.

My son...

This ring...

This ring belonged to Mustafa, father.

He gave it to me.

Keep it, father.

Hang on, son! Stay with me!

Father...

Say it, say it son.

Father...

Save me, Father!

Free me, father!

Free my soul!

Please, father!

Son...

Do you smell the roses, father?

Son...

Cihangir...

Cihangir.

Cihangir.

Brother?

Cihangir?

My lion?

Son?

Son!

Cihangir!

Son? Son?

Son?

Son!

Son! Son!

Come in.

- Your Grace, you have a visitor. - Who?

He says you'd know him. Tugrul Bey.

Who is Tugrul Bey?

What's happening? Who are you?

We finally get to meet, Sinan Pasha.

They call me Atmaca.

You must have heard about me from Rustem Pasha.

So you are Atmaca.

Catch this man quickly! Hurry!

I command you! I am your captain!

Catch this man. Take his head off!

Our captain is only Captain Turgut.

A man who can't even sail a row boat can't be our captain!

What do you want from me?

Bring your brother here, and I'll spare your life.

No. You will kill us both immediately.

No, not immediately.

You will die slowly. You will suffer.

Why didn't you stop this, Mihrimah?

How could the sultana go?

Moreover with the regent.

I did everything I could. You know my mother.

She's doesn't see anything else when it comes to her children.

Come in.

Your Highness, your Grace.

What is it? Who sent it?

It's for you, your Grace. Kapudan Pasha sent it.

Open it. Let's see what my brother sent me.

I have your brother.

If you don't want me to send you his head, come to this location.

Brother...

I doubt that snake Rustem will come.

In that case, we will spill his blood.

Don't you see this is a trap? How can you go?

I'm not going to leave my brother to death.

You will not go anywhere.

You know well that it's too late for Sinan Pasha now.

You cannot save him.

Maybe Sinan Pasha is dead already.

Did you forget what you told me?

For might and power, you must sacrifice.

Your Majesty.

One of the disciples asked Jesus,

''Lord, my father died...

...can I attend to his funeral?"

Jesus answered:

''Leave him.''

''The dead belong to the world of the dead.''

''You stay with me."

Your Majesty,

Let me take you to the world of the living.

''He created death and life.''

Sinan!

Brother, you're back!

How did they release you?

Don't call me brother!

I'm not your brother!

When will the rain stop?

Soon I hope. It can't go on like this.

Why did we stop?

Someone's coming, your Highness.

I was nothing...

I died and I was reborn a plant.

I died as a plant, I was reborn an animal.

I died as an animal, I was born a man.

So why would I be afraid of death?

I will take another step and reborn an angel.

Then I will die again...

I won't be satisfied with that joy and reborn as Him.

Cihangir...

Cihangir!

Cihangir...

Cihangir!

Open it!

Men are asleep.

They wake up when they die.

I must die.

I woke up.

I died.

Oh God...

Is there an end to this pain, to this suffering and grief?

Will it ease?

Or will it hurt for the rest of my life, just like the first day?

Open it! Open it...

Leave him! Don't touch!

Don't touch him.

No! No!

Son!
