THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

What are you trying to do, Ertuğrul Bey?

You sent your men to my castle with the ransom money.

I could've done whatever I wanted to your son when I had him.

But I didn't hurt him...

for the sake of our friendship.

You knew I'd have killed you if something had happened to my son.

That's why you didn't hurt him and demanded a ransom.

And I paid the ransom.

I understand now.

So, your intention is to take revenge for the ransom.

I came here for a revenge, that's right.

But not just revenge for the ransom...

I came here to take revenge on that bastard who holds your leash.

What do you mean?

-The emperor is my only-- -Enough with your lies!

You use the position that the state gave you...

to help those traitors.

I know that.

Now...

you will give me what I want.

You demanded too many coins.

It's not just gold coins that I want.

I want more important things.

The day Tekfur Yannis died...

we gave him a necklace.

Where is that necklace?

I don't know.

I don't know about any necklace.

Wasn't Tekfur killed for that necklace?

Huh? Tell me.

Dragos got him killed.

Because his name was written on the necklace.

And you took it.

What are you trying to say?

That's enough.

The game is over, Lais.

I know that you're Dragos's bastard.

You will tell me who he is...

and where he is.

My dear Süleyman, thank God you're okay.

My dear son.

Thank Allah, he spared your life.

But, tell me, my dear.

Why do you get yourselves into trouble?

We couldn't leave them to die, Mother.

We did our duty.

My dear.

What's done is done. Go easy on him.

Thank God you're okay.

Süleyman...

we will have our own tent soon.

Ertuğrul Bey sent someone to help us get the things we need.

I will go with him to the bazaar to get what we need.

I'm going to the bazaar.

Your grandmother is here.

She will take care of you.

Don't worry, Mother.

I'm okay.

Thank you, mother.

Go, my dear. Go get what you need.

I will stay with my dear grandson.

My dear!

It will pass.

It will pass, God willing.

It will pass, my dear.

You think I will accept these accusations?

I don't accept anything.

And I won't give you anything.

Are these your final words?

Yes.

Good, then.

Since you've said your final words...

now it's time for our swords to do the talking.

-With Allah's help! -Allah is great!

With Allah's help!

Alps.

Stop!

I will finish him off myself.

Tell me!

Where is that bastard Dragos?

Where is that bastard?

You will tell me where he is!

Where is he?

He's like death...

he can be anywhere, at any time.

Okay!

Okay. Okay.

Please, stop.

I will tell you.

My bey broke his tongue's lock with his fists.

It will open now.

With the gold coins we took from you...

we recruited some men.

And Commander Dragos...

will be here in a few days.

I don't know anything else.

Do you expect me to believe this?

I know Dragos is in Söğüt.

Since you're not telling me where he is...

I will make an example of you...

in Söğüt.

Alps!

Tie him to my horse.

We will show everyone how we punish these bastards.

-Yes, Bey. -As you wish, Bey.

Get up.

These tensioners are good.

I will make the nails for these tensioners myself.

I want 400 of these tensioners and treated timbers.

But they should be cheap.

The price will lower when you buy this many.

Welcome, ma'am.

Who is that woman?

Selcan Hatun.

Brother.

What did you want to talk about?

Emir Bahattin...

wants to marry you.

Brother...

Wait here.

Selcan Hatun.

I'm Beybolat, the bey of the Umuroğulları.

I am sorry to hear what happened.

I hope your son Süleyman is okay.

They came to help my sister, God bless them.

Thank you, Beybolat Bey.

My son will recover soon, God willing.

Good. That's good to hear.

I know Gündoğdu Bey.

I haven't seen him for a while.

We will see him in Söğüt soon, God willing.

God willing.

Gündoğdu Bey will come to kiss his mother's hand,

and to see his brother Ertuğrul Bey very soon.

Beybolat Bey,

we heard that in the tent you lived in before,

you gave many great feasts.

When my tent is set up...

I will do it again.

We will be together, God willing.

You are the new bey. Congratulations.

However, I hope you won't go astray as your late father did, God willing.

I hope you will understand that

those who bend the knee to cruelty have no place on the blessed path of Oghuz.

Selcan Hatun.

You can't talk about my father like this.

I hope Gündoğdu Bey won't meet the Mongols as he marches

on the blessed path of Oghuz.

He would lose his life, and there wouldn't be any tribe to lead.

Ertuğrul Bey caught the commander of Lefke Castle,

and is bringing him to the square.

Let's see how Ertuğrul Bey serves justice.

Take a good look at this bastard.

He's a tool of that bastard Dragos...

who's trying to create trouble...

corrupt our bazaar,

and destroy us all.

I promise you...

I will find that bastard Dragos...

and throw him here.

Long live our bey!

Long live our bey!

Long live our bey!

Long live Ertuğrul Bey!

Long live Ertuğrul Bey!

Dragos!

He will send you all back to that hostile steppe you came from!

This is our land!

You will leave!

I, Ertuğrul, son of Süleyman Shah,

promise you,

the people who want to destroy us should know,

if they cut off our water, we will dry out their river!

If they break our branches, we will cut down their trees!

And...

if they try to put out our fire...

we will burn them all!

I swear on my sword...

we won't kill our cruel and ignoble enemy

before we get our revenge!

Look what those Mongols did, Bey.

They are robbing the people

by doubling taxes.

People worked hard for these.

I don't want to give these coins to the Mongols, Bey.

I hope they can't spend any of it, Brother.

We can't strengthen their hands while the Mongols and their minions

are waiting for an opportunity to destroy us.

Otherwise, they will take the people's souls...

not just their gold coins.

Our bazaar is prosperous.

The people will earn more anyway.

After we get through hard times,

we will make them pay for it.

-Did you talk to Beybolat, Artuk Bey? -Yes, we did, Bey.

We said you invited him to dine with you.

Bey...

we will hand over these coins to Beybolat...

but I'm not sure if they can bring them to Konya safe and sound.

You're right, Artuk Bey.

But I have a plan in mind.

I will decide what to do...

after talking with Beybolat tonight.

Protect these chests well.

We are responsible for the people's coins until we deliver the chests.

-As you wish, Bey. -As you wish, Bey.

Okay.

Give it to me.

Come on, sister, help me with it...

Put them there.

It's been hard.

But we finally managed to build our tents.

Oh tall trees, your trunks are big, and you're fruitful.

We will expand like your roots...

and proliferate like your branches, God willing.

God willing.

Let me pour you some sherbet.

Thank God, Bey...

we will live among tall trees again.

There is a reason why our ancestors lived in the woods, Yınal.

If there were an attack, the trees would protect us.

They couldn't protect you, Brother.

Sırma!

They couldn't protect you from my arrow.

My brave sister!

Who can stop your lightning arrows?

Welcome back.

Thank you, Brother.

Welcome, Sister.

What happened?

It's nothing, it happened while setting up the tents.

My beautiful sister, I missed you so much. It's good to see you.

Thank God you're here.

Where's the rest of the tribe?

The lead wolves come first. The rest will be here soon.

Wonderful!

You came just in time.

We put up our sigil...

and were about to take the first step into our tent.

Go on then, Brother.

We haven't been together for a long time.

We will talk about recent events.

This is the land of tall trees,

and the symbol of bravery and freedom...

is there.

May Allah give happiness to our tribe and our people.

Amen!

In the name of Allah.

Lais.

Ertuğrul tried to threaten us by killing him in the middle of Söğüt.

But I love this kind of merciless war.

I am the one who wins in the end.

Sir, they might figure out that you are Dragos.

We need to take precautions.

Tara.

I predicted that before we began, and made a plan, Tara.

Precautions were taken.

Which ones?

Even you will be surprised when you see it.

This is a long and bloody game.

We're making a new move now.

Any news from Uranos?

He's on his way to the castle.

Good. Good.

Get up.

I am Commander Uranos.

By order of the emperor...

I am the new commander of Lefke Castle now.

Sir,

-our personnel and revenue-- -To hell with the revenue!

I am not here to train knights and collect taxes,

I am here to fight and get revenge!

I heard what happened to Commander Lais.

That Turk, Ertuğrul...

cut his throat in the middle of Söğüt.

Do you what that means?

It's a scandal.

And his so-called fellow soldiers couldn't do anything

to prevent this scandal.

We were loyal to him until his dying breath.

We did our best.

But that loyalty isn't enough for me.

I want more.

How?

You!

What can you do for me?

Show your loyalty.

That's the loyalty I'm talking about.

Do you understand, Commander?

We're going into a bloody war against Turks!

And in this war...

we will also have some friends to help us.

We have enough soldiers.

And we can bring more from Constantinople.

We don't need these men, Commander Uranos.

Yes. These men should leave our castle immediately.

The first rule of loyalty...

is to follow orders without question.

But you're not doing this.

And I hate when people question my orders.

We only have each other here.

This is our castle now.

Not the emperor's,

nor anyone else's.

Who are you loyal to?

-To Commander Dragos till death! -To Commander Dragos till death!

Commander Dragos till death!

Commander Dragos till death!

Commander Dragos till death!

Commander Dragos till death!

So, this Dragos guy was behind everything.

We set up our tents.

And we will be stronger after we've rested.

God willing.

God willing.

Brother.

Take me to Father's grave tomorrow.

I want to pray for him.

We have a journey tomorrow.

We're taking the taxes to Konya.

Very well.

-My sister can take me then. -Your sister will go to Konya with us.

What's the matter?

Why are you taking her?

For a good reason.

I will wed İlbilge to Emir Bahattin.

What are you saying?

I said what needs to be said!

Your sister has no voice.

She will marry that man!

End of discussion.

No, Brother.

You can be the leader of this tent and this tribe,

but you can't control my heart.

I won't marry Emir Bahattin.

İlbilge.

Your marriage to Emir Bahattin will strengthen our tribe.

He's a statesman. We're very lucky.

Why don't you understand?

I said I am not interested in any statesman.

That's my final word.

Period.

If your heart doesn't want him, I will take it out of your chest, İlbilge.

Decide with your mind, not with your heart.

You will thank me...

when you are married to an emir...

and you're living in the palace.

Pull yourself together.

Don't make me angry.

My mind wouldn't choose him either.

Palace?

My palace is this beautiful tent.

My palace is the steppe where I ride horses.

Did you think I would fall for those fancy words?

I don't want that.

You should think about the future of the tribe, not just your own.

And for the future of the tribe, you will marry him.

And we will rise to higher ranks.

We will be stronger.

Our tribe will be as big as a state.

You want to win the emir's favor.

And you're using me to do it.

For power, for wealth, for position...

you're giving away your sister.

Brother!

You don't know what you're saying.

They will think the great Beybolat can't control his little sister.

I'm not going to waste this opportunity.

We're heading out tomorrow.

I will deliver the taxes...

and you will marry Emir Bahattin.

Brother.

-It was too much for-- -Don't!

Don't advise me.

She deserved it.

She can't think straight.

Go now.

Talk to her.

Do whatever you can to convince her to marry him.

Or else, I swear on my life, I will kill her.

Get ready for tonight.

Ertuğrul Bey invited us to dine with him.

Bey.

Yes, Artuk Bey.

White Beard sent a message.

Sadreddin Konevi took the road.

He's coming to Söğüt.

And they will be at the inn tomorrow.

Sadreddin Konevi is one of the leaders of the resistance against the Mongols.

That's why the Mongols wish to kill him.

He's very important for us, Artuk Bey.

I know, Bey. He's the most precious student of İbnü'l Arabi.

That's why the Mongols are targeting him.

They will certainly go after him.

We need to protect him.

Tell White Beard,

I will go myself to bring him to the tribe tomorrow.

As you wish, Bey.
