THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY
NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION
On the book,
on the flag,
and on the sword,
I swear.
If I leave
the path of my faith,
my tradition and of my brother,
may I be killed
with my own sword
for the Qur'an and our flag.
Oh, Ertuğrul...
Oh...
You have disobeyed the state and its powerful emir
for many years.
He tried to undermine every decision you made, Your Highness.
Yes, and now what?
He filled his own grave.
The Sultan rules us.
But
I rule here. He couldn't understand that.
He won't rest in peace.
I'll send his village
to the place they came.
I'll create a new order in these lands, where even
his grave will be forgotten.
Ares left smiling, Your Highness.
You'll see how he smiles
when he hears my offer
after the mourning.
No doubt, sir.
Your Highness, the council will end soon.
Dündar Bey is at the tent.
This council is just a charade,
and I'll be the winner.
I'll put such a tight leash on Dündar that...
whatever Ertuğrul owned,
whatever he took from me,
will be mine again.
But,
our issue is Turgut Alp.
What is he doing?
He stays here and is provoking the alps
to avenge Ertuğrul, sir.
Send him to me.
We buried Ertuğrul.
He has a grave.
Where I'll send Turgut, he won't
even find soil to be buried under.
What, are you hungry? Here you go.
Is there no water? Give us water.
Water?
Give them water. Here you go. Water.
Please give us water.
Here you go.
Water!
Give us water. Just a little.
Tell me.
Is Ertuğrul going to live?
His anger will keep him alive, don't worry.
What happened?
Tell me everything.
If you left even the slightest trace that you were there,
we'll pay with our lives.
Commander Ares ambushed Ertuğrul
and his men dressed as a bandit.
Lots of blood.
Kill them. Don't let them escape!
When Ares was injured, I saw his face.
So Ares
wanted to get rid of Ertuğrul Bey before making peace
with the Turks.
But how did Ertuğrul escape?
Two injured alps took him away.
My bey! Hang on, my bey!
I followed them.
Almost there, hang on.
My bey. Hang on my bey.
Almost there, my Bey. Hang on.
Please hang on!
They're coming!
Hang on.
His alps gave their life for Ertuğrul.
And so they handed Ertuğrul to me.
And his body?
How did you convince his family
and the alps that he had died?
I put Ertuğrul's ring
on one of Ares' men
then burned him.
Good.
You weren't seen, were you?
Rest assured,
only we know the truth.
Very well done, Antheus.
Now we have such power that
we can set two countries on each other.
So, what now?
If we want to make a profit,
we'll keep Ertuğrul Bey alive.
We need him alive.
Ares won't fear a dead Ertuğrul
but an alive one will scare him
and he'll give us the gold we want.
Since you gifted a beautiful slave such as Marya
to Ares...
You'll contact him soon.
Marya will be our eyes in the castle.
Come, let's see Ertuğrul Bey before before we set off.
May your rage keep you alive, Ertuğrul Bey.
Feed off your rage...
so we can get rich.
Oh, Allah, you who helped Yusuf
out of the darkest of holes.
Help this poor servant
of yours as well.
Help me.
You asked for me, Your Highness.
Our Sultan...
what did he order you to do?
Find out what happened
and find Ertuğrul.
You know all that you need to know,
and since you found Ertuğrul,
you don't need to stay here anymore.
Ertuğrul Bey has been found.
-But without finding those-- -Those who did it will be found.
The Seljuk Emir is here.
Dündar Bey is here,
you're not needed anymore.
-Your Highness... -You've done your duty here, Turgut.
Our army is marching.
And
the campaign awaits you.
Take your alps tomorrow morning...
and get going.
Don't worry about here.
May your reign be a successful one.
May your village be happy.
Thank you, Aslıhan Hatun.
Thanks, dear.
It means a lot.
When do you join the campaign, Turgut Alp?
At dawn, we'll set out
with the alps.
Must be hard to leave
while the village mourns.
But you and your alps...
are our hope.
You are an alp.
You'll get through this.
Mourning aside,
leaving without having avenged Ertuğrul Bey
just doesn’t seem right.
Don't worry.
Ertuğrul Bey will be avenged.
If our state wants you on the campaign,
you have to take your sword
and go to battle.
Turgut.
Don't forget this.
There'll be someone waiting for you.
It soothes my heart
knowing that someone is waiting for me.
We can never accept the deaths of those we love.
Can't accept burying a loved one.
In my heart I still can't believe you're gone.
No words will persuade me.
Ertuğrul!
You told me you'd seen me in the eyes of a scared deer.
You saved me in my darkest hour.
Look!
I need help again.
This time it's not the enemy's sword that attacks me
but the cold touch of the dark soil.
Mother.
My Gündüz.
Why didn't you tell me you were here?
You were sleeping, son, I didn't want to wake you up.
You should have.
How will the flowers of his grave bloom if we don't water them?
Right, they won't.
Good thinking, son.
I have something to say to him.
What is that, Gündüz?
Dad, you wouldn't have let me have a steel sword,
but you're not here anymore.
It's time.
I took the sky sword.
My Halime.
My Gündüz.
My Gündüz!
Who are you?
Where am I?
You're safe, Ertuğrul.
Save your energy.
I'll get you back to health.
Don't push yourself.
You're still weak.
I made you some soup.
Drink.
Now is not the time for soup.
Where are my alps?
Who are you?
I found you injured.
Consider me a friend.
Come on, eat your food and get well.
Why is my
getting well so important to you?
Not just for me,
but for everyone who loves you.
Your loved ones are waiting for you.
Any news of them?
You push yourself too hard.
If you go on like this, you'll never get to see them.
I'll tell you anything you want to know.
But I must go.
Come on.
You get well now.
Thank you.
We're ready to go to Karacahisar, Your Highness.
Good.
Let's not keep our partner waiting.
Forgive me, Your Highness,
I don't understand.
Open your eyes, Göktuğ.
Even the night chases the morning.
Why should we stay idle?
We have to chase our gains.
Look,
every event opens a new door.
If you knock at that door
you win.
This door is Hanlı Bazaar for us.
A new era is beginning.
Oh...
And news from Bahadır Bey?
He's on the road.
He will arrive shortly.
Good. Bahadır Bey is precious to us.
Because
Candar Bey's brother Bahadır Bey
will bring Aslıhan down.
Thanks to him...
I'll marry Aslıhan...
and get the Çavdar Village.
We joined Sultan Alaeddin's army
and destroyed the enemy.
We showed the Çavdar bravery
to everyone.
Our village is behind us.
Our brothers' village
is ahead of us.
Now
it's time to unite
under my rule.
New battles
and new treasures await us.
Yes, my bey.
Traitor.
Go!
I give you this traitor, Father.
Kara Tunga!
Kara Tunga.
You
were one of my village's beys.
You were the brother of my wife, Karaca.
You were
no different to me than my son Sancar.
But you...
tried to tempt my wife...
kill me...
and take my title, huh?
Shame on you!
You denounced your own brother,
your own blood.
Bahadır Bey is my blood and my life.
I have no brother like you.
That's my wife.
The honor of taking this traitor's head is all yours.
Whoever
disobeys me
and rebels
against
my rule
pays with their head.
The traitor's blood
is the sweetest revenge.
Not just my brother,
but my entire life is yours.
So long as you're well.
Nothing will happen to me
as long as I
have my brave son, my brave wife
and my brave warriors.
We're near the Çavdar Village.
That's the village
of my ancestors,
of my brother Candar.
And now it'll be mine.
We have
the great Emir Sadettin behind us.
We'll rule these lands.
Yes, my bey.
My brave alps,
we smashed the enemy in battle.
We made the traitor pay.
Now we'll take our village
and rule these lands.
Whoever stands against us,
whoever resists our might,
will have their heads on our spears.
Long live Bahadır Bey!
Ertuğrul's death changed Karacahisar.
How are the Kayıs?
They couldn't get over the death of Ertuğrul.
Doesn't look like they will soon.
If they knew what was about to happen to them, they'd cherish these final days.
When will we move to capture Hanlı Bazaar, sir?
Very soon.
-Have you sent word to bandit Mihalis? -Yes, sir.
Good.
He must've missed raiding caravans.
He'll be very happy.
That’s enough fresh air.
Let's get inside.
Our dear guest Emir Sadettin will arrive soon.
Let's see what he wants.
Emir Sadettin.
Welcome.
Thank you.
We prepared a feast in your honor.
A full table...
means a full heart.
I like sharing.
So do I.
That's why I'm here.
I'm sure a statesman like you will share even the most precious things.
Let's keep it brief, Ares.
Until now,
I've made all kinds of sacrifices for my country.
I'm sure you've done the same.
We've ensured plenty of gains for our respective states.
However,
now it's our turn to win.
I'd be honored to work with you, Emir Sadettin.
What do you propose?
Hanlı Bazaar.
The first reward of our partnership.
If we administer it together,
we'll both be rich.
If you accept,
I'm here to propose a profitable partnership.
I'd like that very much.
But there's something I'd like to know.
You're the most powerful Seljuk Emir...
why do you still want more?
When I have the chance,
why shouldn't I want more?
Emir Sadettin.
You only lack being the Sultan.
Do you mean that?
Why not?
