THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY

NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION

Sadettin's death warrant.

We'll either revive the legacy of my father, Selcuk Bey,

and that of my grandfather, Kutalmisoglu, my glorious Sultan Alaeddin,

or we'll die like insects under the tiles of this cursed palace, Mother.

This game will end here.

What kind of order is this, son? We'll lose everything.

What do we have to lose, Mother? What will we lose?

Our rotten bodies?

Will we lose our souls, the ones we sold to a degenerate?

Can't you see that he will bring us down eventually?

We have no choice.

But how would it work?

Do you think they'll let you kill that bastard Sadettin openly?

Not openly, Mother. Not openly.

He'll go into the Samsat battle a victorious commander.

But only his corpse will come back.

Who could you possibly trust to do this

when it endangers not only yourself but also the state?

Ertuğrul Bey.

Why would you trust him, my Sultan?

Mother, open your eyes.

Ertuğrul Bey was always loyal to his state and my father.

If my brother had lived,

he'd have fought for him to be Sultan with the last breath in his body.

But you killed my brother.

So Ertuğrul Bey will be loyal to me to ensure our state will survive.

And I have not the smallest doubt in him.

Now, you either help me and Ertuğrul Bey kill Sadettin,

or Sadettin kills us and sweeps through our state like a plague.

It's your decision, Mother.

So tell me, Mother.

Will you trust Ertuğrul Bey as I do?

Do we have any other choice?

Ertuğrul Bey sent me this letter. Read it, Mother.

My Sultan, your decree has stripped me of the Beylic your father gave to me.

Even though you were the one to seal it,

I know it was written at the direction of Emir Sadettin.

It's obvious that he rules the state in your name.

It's time you made a decision, my Sultan.

Either Sadettin dies, or our state collapses.

Either our state lives or we die.

If you ally yourself with me,

I promise to serve you faithfully and bring the traitor to account.

Otherwise, I will finish this myself. It's your decision.

Suleyman Shah's son, Ertuğrul.

How can Ertuğrul overcome the Emir by himself, son?

I'll be right there with him, Mother.

As will Governor Husamettin Karaca of Sivas,

who I trust completely and Emir Sadettin avoids.

After I read Ertuğrul Bey's letter, I sent word to Karaca.

When Sadettin returns from battle and is resting at Sivas,

he and Ertuğrul Bey will kill the Emir.

That's why you changed your mind about Amid.

That's why you sent Sadettin to Samsat, to keep him away from Konya.

Forgive me, son.

I killed your father without trusting you.

Now I understand that I made a terrible mistake.

You should know, until my last breath, I will never betray you.

May God help us.

What's he doing here, Bey?

Obviously,

Sadettin Kopek has assigned his best man to stop the rebellion against him.

Ertuğrul.

Can you still trust this man to do the right thing?

He's either a soldier blinded by loyalty

or nothing more than Sadettin Kopek's puppet.

If he keeps acting this way, I'll kill him with my own two hands,

however good his intentions are.

There's only eight of you there.

Resistance is pointless.

Ertuğrul Bey,

I intend to take your life myself.

Surrender now.

Forget his intentions, my Bey. Let's kill them all.

-I'm going to talk to him. -Don't do it, Ertuğrul.

He thinks you're working with the traitors.

There's no way he'll believe you.

I have to, brother.

Let's talk, Günalp Bey.

I'm not interested in anything you have to say.

I've seen what type of a man you are.

What are you doing, my Bey?

I'm looking for a way to stall them so we can get out of here, Turgut.

Take care of yourselves.

Listen to me, Günalp Bey.

If you still want to kill me after that,

I'll give you your chance.

I was right.

So, I was right.

But it's not that simple, Aslihan.

I was prepared to do anything for you.

Do you know who the stones in this necklace belonged to?

My late mother.

I wanted

this to adorn your beautiful neck

and honor her memory with you.

I loved you that much.

I wanted you

to be my wife and raise sons and daughters who would

keep my legacy alive.

What did you do?

You walked all over me, Aslihan.

You crushed me.

You married Turgut.

Turgut! For what reason?

Because of your loyalty to Ertuğrul.

You destroyed

the strongest Emir of Seljuk, Aslihan.

So, I was right.

Right, right.

But does it matter, Aslihan?

Does it matter?

Seeing that I was right

tell me,

why did you come here?

To throw yourself at my feet and beg for my forgiveness?

To seek refuge,

and ask me to forgive Turgut and Ertuğrul?

Why are you here, Aslihan?

So that you may save my tribe from Ertuğrul's never-ending ambition.

So that you may stop him and Turgut taking us to Sogut and letting us die there.

I beg you, Your Eminence.

Give me my tribe back.

Was it worth it?

How could it be?

My father, my brothers,

many of our alps, all sacrificed to satisfy Ertuğrul's greed.

How could it be?

Here I am

begging

for your forgiveness.

A desperate and helpless woman

and someone who you loved not so very long ago.

You are the most powerful Emir in our state.

I'm begging you, Emir Sadettin.

Save my tribe from his malice.

I'm begging you.

May I enter, Your Eminence?

Come in.

Eminence.

I have important news.

Fine, get out.

Your Eminence, Emir Sadettin, the traitorous Beys rebelled against me.

I killed them all.

However, I then discovered

that Ertuğrul has joined a secret council of disgraced beys.

They were involved in the rebellion.

I followed them but they got away.

I'll do everything I can to kill Ertuğrul for rebelling against his state.

Frontier Bey Yakup Günalp Bey.

I've got you, Ertuğrul.

You can't escape me now.

I'll give you what you want, Aslihan Hatun.

Turgut and Ertuğrul have sealed their own death warrants.

No one can save them now.

What have you done, Aslihan?

That's for my brother Aliyar.

I believed your lies.

I even doubted Emir Sadettin, the man I think of as a father.

Moreover, I risked my own life fighting Kritos.

I know that you joined that traitorous council.

You can't fool me anymore, Ertuğrul Bey.

Did Emir Sadettin tell you about the council of beys?

Yes.

Seems like Sadettin not only keeps his dogs in the palace

but one in each village too.

He has already established his own state, Günalp Bey.

He's deceived so many innocent people.

-He'll pay for what he's done. -Enough!

I had no idea about the council.

When I heard about it,

I went there to stop them betraying our state.

You're still able to look me in the eye and lie to me, Ertuğrul Bey.

Damn a traitor like you.

There's nothing I can do but pity you, Günalp Bey.

You're too weak to see the truth.

I know only too well what the truth is, Ertuğrul Bey.

You want to establish

your own Beylic in Sogut by weakening the state.

Kopek took control of the state by killing our Sultan.

You can't believe that

but you can believe I would try to establish my own Beylic in a tiny land?

Enough, Ertuğrul Bey. Do you still disparage me?

Your loyalty puts me in a difficult position, Günalp Bey.

If you cross the line and try to harm my men

understand that I'll kill you myself, Günalp Bey.

What are you waiting for?

Here I am.

Let my alps go.

Let's you and I settle this.

Your alps

and you

will die here!

If so

may God forgive your sins, Günalp Bey.

Go to hell, Ertuğrul Bey.

My God.

That's for what you did to Ertuğrul Bey and my tribe.

Die, Sadettin. Die so that the world can be a better place.

Kayraldi!

Kayraldi!

Kayraldi.

How many more beys will die because of your loyalty to Sadettin, Günalp Bey?

I'll never give up the state to jackals like you, Ertuğrul Bey.

Günalp Bey!

Daughter, did you find any trace of her?

No, Mother. Her saddlebag is missing.

It looks like she took it.

Wasn't Aliyar Bey's sword here?

It was here.

She took that too.

My God, may you protect her.

It's obvious what's she's gone to do.

Her intention is clear.

Artuk Bey.

-We've had news from the alps. -Have they seen Aslihan Hatun?

A shepherd says he saw a woman riding towards Konya.

Was she alone?

She was, my Bey. She was riding a black horse.

That's Aslihan Hatun's horse.

You were right, Halime Hatun.

What if Aslihan gets into the palace?

What if Emir Sadettin does something to her?

Abdurrahman, send the alps after Aslihan Hatun, right away.

They have to catch up with her before something happens.

Yes, my Bey.

Let's pray that the alps reach Aslihan.

Aslihan Hatun, no.

Kayraldi.

No one can save you from me, Sadettin.

No one.

Don't do it, Aslihan.

The price will be heavy.

So much blood will be shed in your tribe.

You'll cause your own death and that of your people.

I'm warning you for the last time.

Don't do it.

Aslihan!

My tribe was split apart because of you.

It betrayed my brother and Ertuğrul Bey.

But if you

If you die

my tribe will be saved.

As will the people I love.

You'll die, Sadettin.

You can't take the ones I love away from me anymore.

I won't let you do it.

I won't.

Die, Sadettin. Die.

Don't do it.

Kayraldi.

Aslihan.

As

Aslihan.

Eşhedü en lâ

ilâhe

illallâh.

Ve eşhedü enne

Muhammeden

abduhu ve Resuluh.

Aslihan.

Aslihan.

Aslihan.

I've got you, my brave men.

-Who are they? -My uncle, Garkin Bey.

Stop the archers!

Stop.

Archers, stop.

May I enter, Your Eminence?

Your Eminence?

Your Eminence.

Your Eminence. Your Eminence!

Aslihan.

You'll live, your Eminence. You'll live.

Soldier! Soldier!

I'll get you out of here. Call the doctor, quick!

Your Eminence.

Kayraldi.

Take Aslihan to her tribe.

Everyone should know that I killed her.

Don't exhaust yourself, Eminence. I'll get you out of here.

Do as I say.

Send Aslihan to her tribe.

Make sure Turgut and Ertuğrul know that I killed her.

That's an order, Kayraldi.

I will, Eminence. I'll have her body sent to her tribe.

It's you I'm concerned about.

Your Eminence. Your Eminence!

Your Eminence.

Your Eminence.

Your Eminence!

Günalp Bey. Don't let any more soldiers get hurt.

We'll settle this here.

Let's not spill any more blood.

Let's do it, Ertuğrul Bey.

Surrender, Günalp Bey. Don't be so stubborn.

Your loyalty to Emir Sadettin has cost many beys their lives.

End this now.

I'd rather die than to surrender to a traitor like you, Ertuğrul Bey.

You're such a smart woman, Marya.

First you betrayed me.

And then the Turks.

What will you do now?

Betray Governor Kritos?

You killed my brother, Ares.

But Governor Kritos saved me from the Turks.

Why would I betray him?

Besides, I didn't betray you.

You merely paid for my brother's death.

Yes, I killed your brother.

But what about the Turks?

What did they do?

Ertuğrul took care of you.

The Turks let you live among them.

They married you to Artuk Bey.

So why betray them?

I never liked them.

I took shelter there because I had no other choice.

If I wanted to stay there I had to get married, so I got married.

Such a sad story, Marya.

But like always, it's not even close to the truth.

Let's stop talking about this.

We meet here once again under the same roof, with the same purpose.

Destroying Ertuğrul.

But I'll keep an eye on you, Marya.

If I see a mistake

be sure that I won't pity you.

Burn in hell, Ares.

Burn in hell.
