THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

Give these to the women who weave well.

Let them work with them.

We will take them to the Kayı weaving tent.

As you order.

What about the boiled dyes?

They will be taken to Hayme Hatun.

Only she can work with madder around here.

Well done.

You started early. What's the rush?

All women of the tribe know how to weave and knit.

You've forgotten all of that since you started to think you're the bey.

You're the one thinking she's a bey.

I had responsibilities and you took them away.

Our brother did that, not me.

And he was right to.

He did what was best for us.

You prevented me from marrying Ertuğrul...

and then, you took away my responsibilities.

I believe that all you want is to take what I have.

Why are you angry?

Why are you jealous? Tell me!

Sırma!

You don't believe it or understand it when I tell you!

You are not driven by your mind but by your ambition.

Everyone saw what happened to us because you couldn't control your rage!

You think you know everything.

Your pride can't take the fact that I'm ahead of you.

You persuaded my brother, just like you persuaded Ertuğrul to marry you.

That's enough!

We lost the frontier beylik and you're talking like this!

If I hear you talking like this again,

I will cut off your tongue before our brother does!

Now, you will obey my brother's command...

and you will sit down.

You will apologize to Selcan Hatun too.

I don't want to hear a word about you from now on!

That's what our strategy requires.

I'd rather die than apologize to that snake Selcan!

Everyone will see what happens when you insult Sırma's honor

by stabbing her.

Don't you ever threaten me again!

Or my rage will burn you away as well!

-Thanks, men. -Thank you, my Bey.

Sit down.

When wolves are led by sheep, those wolves start to become sheep.

But if they're led by a wolf, then they all become wolves.

Thankfully, you got your title back

and we got back our frontier bey.

Thank you.

A decision made by a sword is broken with a sword.

We have always waited for the right moment to attack.

The system we had for the last ten years is now back in place.

What will the Mongols or Umuroğlus say about that, my Bey?

The wolf doesn't care about the pack once he has made his decision.

When the time was right,

we showed everyone how we got back what is ours.

Alıncak doesn't have the right to have a say about the frontier beylik.

He's not strong enough to make someone a frontier bey

and the Umuroğlus aren't strong enough to take that title.

We all saw what it would be like without you leading us.

From now on, we will support you against any threat, Ertuğrul Bey.

A bad shepherd leads the herd to a cliff. But as long as we have you,

we will fight against any hunter.

Tradition is clear.

Unity brings strength.

Nobody can break us if we're united.

From now on, we will all protect Söğüt.

Our borders cannot be seen by the eye or drawn by hand.

These borders have existed since the dawn of time, they are the whole world.

Those who do not dare to expand...

are doomed to disappear.

Therefore...

every time we take a step...

we will think about...

the next 1000 years on those lands.

If we don't want to be wiped out from the face of the world,

then we should be everywhere.

We will go straight to our goal, destroying anyone who stands in our way.

Our faith is our armor, our sword is our justice...

our goal is the world order.

Allah is great!

-Allah is great! -Allah is great!

Allah is great!

Why do you stand before me?

Do you wish to die? Who are you?

-We are your doom. -You would have no masks if you were men.

You're afraid, then.

Come on.

What are you waiting for?

Kill me!

You won't get a swift death, Süleyman.

You will beg us to kill you.

Tie him, we will take him to the cave.

Take our dead. Let the carrion eat the rest.

I will drown you in your spit!

It's taking too long, what are you doing? Come on!

I've never seen such a lock before.

It's the work of a master.

It must hold something very important.

I can't open this. Forcing it might be dangerous.

You're useless! Go!

Leave it!

Go! Now!

-Sir, what are you doing? -I will open this myself.

This is a special chest.

If we break it, we could damage the information inside.

We will be on bad terms with Ertuğrul. He thinks we're his friend now.

To hell with Ertuğrul!

The contents of this chest are way more important than our friendship with him!

I will open it no matter what.

Damn it!

The paper is ruined. It's all gone.

Damn it! How can this happen?

It was obvious there would be such a mechanism.

You shouldn't have tampered with it. What will we say to Ertuğrul now?

How could this happen?

Shall I wake him?

Are you afraid to show your face?

Where is the letter?

Where were you going with the letter?

We hide our secrets in our heart.

We will take it to the grave.

Then I will take your heart out and open it for your secret.

Do your best.

I have no secrets to tell.

Let's see if you will still be brave when we burn your chest.

Allah!

Allah!

When I arrive in Tabriz with the chest and Keykavus, I will be so glorious.

I will be sitting on the right side of my Khan's golden throne.

Our fame will travel all the way to Kalgançı.

Genghis Khan will reward me himself when I see him in the heavens.

Today is our day!

-Pour more drinks to my men! -Long live Commander Alıncak!

Long live Commander Alıncak!

What do you have there?

Did you attack a village and loot their gold out of boredom?

It arrived upon a horse, Commander Alıncak.

Open it up.

Subutay!

-Whose horse was it? -It was alone.

Find it now!

If Subutay is dead...

the chest...

Keykavus.

All is ruined.

The great mountains will fall upon me.

My Khan will kill me.

I, Alıncak, will be buried.

I will burn in hell.

I will find who did this!

I will burn Anatolia!

I will make lakes out of blood!

I will make them puke blood!

I will make them meet death!

Death!

Death!

Death!

May Allah grant us...

many celebrations of victory in this tent.

-Amen. -Amen.

They all got their share from our might and courage.

They thought they could best us, with their useless army and swords.

But they forgot about our minds.

One arrow shot at the right time exceeds 1000 arrows shot at the wrong time.

A bard's tongue is as swift as a warrior's wrist.

Allah granted us victory.

Now grant our victory a song.

All right, my Bey.

You settled Söğüt, made it your home

You always spoke true

You never knew fear in battle

May Allah protect your lands and tribe

Ertuğrul, son of Süleyman Shah

May Allah always protect you

You have no match in history

May Allah grant you victory

You have no match in history

May Allah grant you victory

You fell in love with a woman With beautiful eyes

Your heart burned with her love

Sometimes you attacked the enemy Like a flood

May Allah bless your fighting arms

Ertuğrul the brave, Son of Süleyman Shah

May Allah always protect you

You have no match in history

May Allah grant you victory

You have no match in history

May Allah grant you victory

Gündüz and Savcı are everything to you

Osman is your lion, your blood

Sultan Mother Hayme is your honor

May Allah protect the Oğuzs

Ertuğrul the brave, Son of Süleyman Shah

May Allah always protect you

You have no match in history

May Allah grant you victory

You have no match in history

May Allah grant you victory

May Allah grant you victory

May Allah protect your lands and tribe

May Allah bless your fighting arms

May Allah bless the Oğuzs

Thank you.

Thank you, my Bey.

-May Allah protect and bless us all. -Amen!

The alps wait here.

-Greetings, son. -Greetings.

-Where are your parents? -My grandmother is here.

Who are you, what do you want?

We're guests, son.

Tell your grandmother we're here.

-Grandmother. -Yes, son?

Three men arrived, they say they're guests.

Don't make them wait. Invite them in.

-Greetings. -Greetings, son.

Come, here.

Thank you, I will take it.

I don't see well.

Who are you? Where are you from? Where are you going?

I'm just a stranger. I'm a poor guest.

Son, we must show hospitality.

Bring us some ayran.

Where is Alıncak?

They're coming, my Bey.

What does this mean, Commander?

Khan's law states

that a man who hasn't done his job is like a horse with a broken leg.

They're both useless! They must both be killed!

Those who didn't do their job are already dead.

You were there as well.

They took Keykavus and the chest. You did nothing.

They sent me the head of my best man.

You're also responsible for this mess.

I escorted them just like you told me.

I did my best too.

I also lost my best man.

This was your responsibility, Commander Alıncak.

Now, instead of thinking about what to do,

you threaten me.

Think about what you will do when Hulagu Khan hears

that you lost both Keykavus and the chest.

Berke Khan's spies are everywhere.

-How could you not spot them, Beybolat? -They were dressed like your men.

They can't have done this all by themselves.

There are people here who help them.

Who?

Ertuğrul.

Ertuğrul?

What does he have to do with this?

Ertuğrul got his title back when we left Söğüt.

Is he the frontier bey again?

How? Didn't they resist?

He attacked Söğüt while we weren't there.

He captured my alps and hung the Kayı banners everywhere.

Ertuğrul declared himself the frontier bey, Commander.

-Who is this, your daughter? -No, son.

Not my daughter, but I consider her as one.

Her husband was killed by the infidels.

She's pregnant, desperate, alone. I took her in, and I look after her.

Don't you have anyone?

Do you take care of her like this?

I had a son and daughter-in-law, death took them away, son.

As for the girl, our conscience is all we've got.

Only lonely people understand lonely people.

All right.

Thank you.

I was just on my way.

I saw your grandson and wanted to check.

Do you need anything?

Faith is a person's biggest need, son.

I have lived a whole life.

I never saw a rich man who wasn't greedy, or a poor man saying he's hungry.

We have a few animals and some land. We take care of ourselves.

We have no wish for earthly things.

I only pray for Ertuğrul Bey, son.

May Allah never take him away from us.

May he continue to protect us as our Bey.

Do you know Ertuğrul Bey?

I never saw him. I couldn't recognize him with these eyes anyway.

Why don't you ask for his help?

Why didn't you

tell him that you had a grandchild and a guest in your tent

who is sick and pregnant?

A great man has great problems, son.

There are many poor people in worse condition than us.

Thankfully, we have our food here.

I only wish health to Ertuğrul Bey.

As long as there are brave mothers like you,

Ertuğrul Bey will never be defeated.

I've seen enough...

I had your ayran.

Time for me to go.

You just arrived, son. Do you know Ertuğrul Bey?

I saw him once.

Safe travels, son.

If you see him again,

tell him that you saw a Turkish mother in an old tent near the Karacavız range.

Tell him that I ask Allah to give him my remaining years.

Of course. I will tell him.

May Allah protect you.

Goodbye, son.

Here you go, my Bey.

Take these, son.

I can't.

I don't deserve it.

We owe it to you,

and you deserve it.

Don't worry, and take it, son.

Thank you.

May Allah make your sons even happier than you've made me.

Amen, son.

Amen.

The tyrants can never set foot here...

as long as there are brave lads and selfless mothers.

-Indeed, my Bey. -Indeed, my Bey.

-Tell the alps to give away what we have. -As you command, Bey.

A sword might get rusty.

A horse might die, Abdurrahman.

But the prayers of these poor people...

are enough to keep us and our families strong, Allah willing.

Amen, my Bey.

Ertuğrul played us.

He allied with Berke Khan's men and acted while you were gone.

He attacked with Berke Khan's men where he left Keykavus.

Can this all be a coincidence, Commander?

You don't fight a scorpion head on.

But if you trap it in a circle of fire,

the scorpion kills itself.

Ertuğrul has us in a circle of fire.

I will burn Ertuğrul.

Don't worry.

I caught Süleyman.

I have him.

But he doesn't have the pardon for Gündoğdu.

Then don't do anything until you make him talk.

Find out where Gündoğdu is. You will know what to do.

What about Ertuğrul?

He said nobody could take his right.

He's not challenging me, but you, Commander.

The scorpion is trapped.

But it still has its poison.

I know how to get out of the circle of fire.
