THE STORIES AND CHARACTERS DEPICTED HERE WERE INSPIRED BY OUR HISTORY
NO ANIMALS WERE HARMED DURING THE FILMING OF THIS PRODUCTION
May I enter, Your Highness?
Come in.
You sent for me, Your Highness?
How fares our army?
The soubashi commanders are at their posts, Your Highness.
The catapults and crossbows should be ready soon.
We've also got enough horses and mules for deployment.
Great.
Now, take this letter.
Give it to Mahperi Hatun in Alaiye.
Before I launch this campaign,
have her come to Konya with my son Ghiyath al-Din.
I'd like to see them.
Ertuğrul Bey will be here soon.
I have important matters to discuss with them.
As you wish, Your Highness.
The poets and scholars would like to see you and show their work
before you leave for the campaign.
The famous poet Qol Ghali of the Oghuz has come to Konya on your orders.
He's waiting to see you.
Good.
Let him come, too.
As we sharpen our swords for battle, we must keep our spirits up.
We haven't met with the poets in a while.
The poet's meeting is tomorrow.
Have my emirs and commanders be ready.
As you wish, Your Highness.
Mother. Endure it, Mother. Don't give up.
Please, God.
Give strength to my mother.
Hayme Hatun is in bad shape, she's having difficulty breathing.
Leave us, please.
Artuk Bey, I brought your sack.
Here, your sack.
God.
You are the one who cures.
You are all knowing.
Mother Hayme's condition is pretty bad, sir.
Artuk Bey.
We need to find a cure at all costs.
-Get her whatever she needs. -Bamsı, it's not like that.
You leave now. I'll figure it out.
Don't lose hope, Sister.
Mother Hayme will be all right.
Mother.
Please, God.
There's no doubt that you are all wise.
You are the curer.
Don't take our Mother,
our beloved, from us.
Mother.
Mother!
Artuk Bey.
Bring water, Halime, quick.
Here.
May I enter, Your Highness?
Come in.
Your Highness.
What is it, Göktuğ?
Is what I heard true?
Indeed.
Ertuğrul conquered the Karacahisar Fortress all by himself.
And now the Sultan has granted him the lands around Söğüt.
And to top it off...
Ertuğrul is bringing one-fifth of the spoils to share with us.
If Ertuğrul voices his suspicions about you to our Sultan...
What suspicions?
Ertuğrul has no doubts, Göktuğ.
I'm damn sure that he knows all about me.
And now, he's coming to tell our Sultan everything he knows.
Then... what will you do, sir?
It's far too soon for the Sultan to die, Göktuğ.
I don't have control over his heir and mother yet.
If the Sultan dies suddenly,
my enemies at the palace will skin me alive,
and hang me on the gates of the palace.
What about Ertuğrul?
We tried to kill him many times.
If we can't succeed this time, we'll attract everyone's attention.
And then, the Sultan won't let us live.
In that case, you have no other way
than to clear your name in the eyes of the Sultan.
The Sultan must have no doubt that whoever tried to poison him at the inn
got what he deserved.
This will also clear Ertuğrul's suspicions about me.
So that...
we may keep getting ever closer to our goal.
We need a scapegoat for this, Göktuğ.
Who is it going to be, sir?
Nizamettin.
Emir Nizamettin.
He sent a gift box to our Sultan, saying that he won't be able to attend
tomorrow's meeting with the poets.
I heard about it.
You'll change Emir Nizamettin's box with the box I'll prepare.
The Sultan will take his gift there.
What are you going to gift him, sir?
I'll give him a present he can't forget.
It'll be legendary.
Is the Sultan going to die?
We shall do our part.
The rest depends on the angel of death.
When the Mongols...
murdered...
our mothers and fathers...
we were left all alone in the mountains.
Ertuğrul Bey found us and took us in.
Mother Hayme became...
our mother, and Suleyman Shah became our father.
Ertuğrul Bey...
was more than a brother.
Turgut, brother.
Brother.
What would we have done without them?
We might have become bandits by now.
We'd be goners for sure.
Brother, they didn't leave us alone.
How can we repay this debt?
Brother.
We must find a way to remedy Mother Hayme.
I can't bear waiting like this...
with nothing I can do.
I can't!
Turgut.
It's tearing me apart.
Turgut.
Mother Hayme will be all right.
She will be okay.
I hope so.
Son.
Who is this boy?
It's my son, Osman.
Osman...
My wonderful boy.
With a searing gaze...
his face shines bright.
He's such a wonderful boy, right?
I hope he becomes a man...
that will carry on our name.
I hope so.
This is a mortal world.
I may be here today...
and gone tomorrow.
Bring him up the way...
we brought you up.
We'll raise him together, Mother.
It was you who raised me, my brothers, and my sons.
You sang them to sleep with lullabies.
It will be you who'll raise Osman, Mother.
The arms of Mother Hayme are a lion's cradle.
He'll grow up in your arms.
Osman...
Mother.
Osman.
Thank God, she came to her senses.
Mother.
This is an amazing invention, Your Highness.
I just hope it doesn't jam when the Sultan opens it.
Try it then and see if it jams.
As you wish.
And, what is that, Your Highness?
Poison.
The one that was given to the Sultan before.
The head physician knows about it.
Then, when he examines him, he'll recognize the poison.
And the poisoning before will be blamed on Emir Nizamettin.
Take this chest.
Change it with Emir Nizamettin's.
Tomorrow, the meeting of the poets...
will be a feast for the eyes.
As you wish, sir.
Open!
Son.
Ertuğrul.
Mother.
My enduring mother.
Don't wear yourself out, Mother.
Hayme Hatun is all right, sir.
Don't worry.
But she survived a huge crisis.
It'd be best for her to rest.
Thank God.
-Thank God. -Thank God.
Thank God.
Ertuğrul Bey.
Have some rest.
You must be tired. I'll wait by my mother's side tonight.
Don't worry about me, Halime.
You can leave.
I'll be by her side.
-If that's what you want. -All right, sir.
Of course.
I'm worried that something's going to happen Mother Hayme, Artuk Bey.
I love her like my own mother.
You all treated me so kindly...
After so little time,
I loved her and the others so much.
Such sweet words, Marya.
I'm happy to hear that you think this way and that you're happy here.
You treated me kindly as well, Artuk Bey.
I was so happy to become your wife.
What did I do to deserve all this goodness?
Your heart is pure, Marya.
You have no ill-will in you.
You took care of Gündüz and protected him.
This meant a lot to us.
I have never been so happy in my life.
I'm sure with you, we'll live happily ever after.
I hope so, Marya.
We'll live to see many happy days.
I hope so.
Mother.
Tell me, son.
Why are you so tearful?
Mother...
You suffered a great deal for your sons.
You cried for them so much that crying my eyes out is nothing compared to that.
You left your sons behind and joined my cause for me.
How can I ever repay you?
I'm all right, son.
I dreamed about Osman...
last night.
My son, Osman. He'll change our unfortunate fate.
He'll make sure the Oghuz take root here.
Suleyman Shah named him.
May he live a long life.
Now, I can die in peace.
I felt him in my arms.
I kissed him.
I breathed in his smell.
See?
I'm okay.
Now,
get back to your duty.
That's what befits the margrave of our country.
I sent the news to Dündar and my older brothers, Mother.
I asked them to come at once.
I asked them to join me and let us live here together.
Your words...
reminded me of the smell of my sons, dear.
God bless you.
May you never fall on your knees.
God bless you.
Come on.
Go back to your duty.
All right, mother.
May God protect you.
May God protect you as well, son.
My brave son.
Before Ertuğrul enters the Hanlı Bazaar,
you will disguise yourselves as merchants and blend in.
Nobody will recognize you in the crowd.
-What about you, sir? -Me?
I'll be inside this basket that we'll gift Ertuğrul.
Once we are in, the rest is easy.
Our men hid swords under the tables where they'll sit
by disguising themselves the night before.
Once we get inside,
we must kill the guards posted at the inner door and close it.
We must prevent the alps from entering.
There'll be few men with Ertuğrul.
-He'll be defenseless. -And then what, sir?
How do we get out?
We will set fire to the Hanlı Bazaar after we kill Ertuğrul.
Once Titan sees the rising smoke, he'll know that Ertuğrul is dead.
He'll come to our rescue with his men.
That's enough.
Let's get going.
Keep your eyes open.
This is going to be a cruel battle for our holy cause,
with no second chances.
Ares will set fire to the inn once he's dealt with Ertuğrul.
When the smoke rises from the inn, we'll attack.
Get ready.
Do you have faith that Ares will succeed this time?
God is with Ares.
His only chance is to succeed this time.
I'm sure that barbaric Turk will get what he deserves this time.
Don't be so sure.
It's not so easy to defeat Ertuğrul.
Ares is a great warrior, Angelos. Remember that.
He won't stop unless he kills Ertuğrul.
-What did you bring? -It's made exclusively for Ertuğrul Bey.
This isn't much, but...
Mother, smell this.
Here, Mother Hayme.
Let me.
May it help you recover.
Thank you, dear.
At last, I'll get to see all my children before I die.
What more could I ask for?
When Sungur Tekin Bey, Gündoğdu Bey,
and Dündar's return, our unity will get even stronger, Mother.
I hope so, dear.
I do hope so.
Now, I must get up and start the preparations.
-Mother. -Mother Hayme.
What are you doing?
You need to rest. We can do it.
We can't let you work while we are here, Mother Hayme.
That's right.
I can't contain myself.
I can't express how much I miss them.
My heart is burning to see...
my sons.
If they could come in one piece...
I'll cook for them myself.
I'll make them a bowl of soup.
That's all I want.
Mother Hayme. You need to rest.
We'll handle the preparations ourselves until they come.
Fine, my girls.
Now then, let me rest a bit.
Mother.
Why didn't my uncles come here with my father?
What can I say, son?
Your uncles have their own tribes there.
There are enemies there too.
If they left their tribe...
the enemy would attack.
Let's all get together, Grandmother. I want my uncles.
I'll tell them the story about how I plucked Ares' eye out.
My boy.
Fine, tell them.
My dear boy.
Your Grandmother loves you.
Aziz Yusuf was 11 years old.
Prophet Jacob was asleep.
He saw Joseph in a strange dream.
And he asked his forefathers its interpretation.
As the full moon rose, 11 stars bowed down before me in my dream.
I saw this dream for sure.
Pray, tell me what it means now.
What's the meaning of this dream of mine?
How will it end up? Tell me.
Show me the meaning clearly.
Does my dream contain a hidden bliss?
O Muhammad, Joseph saw your dream.
The moon, the sun, and 11 stars bowed down.
Why did the stars pull the grass?
Now, tell me in detail.
God bless you, Qol Ghali.
May God bless your victory and give you a long life, Your Highness.
Amen.
Ensure the safety of the inn, Bamsı.
-Tell everyone to be alert. -Yes, sir.
Men!
Keep your hands at your swords.
Look out for any enemy's attack.
All right. Take your position now.
Go on.
Margrave Ertuğrul Bey.
-Welcome, Ertuğrul Bey. -Thank you.
Welcome, Ertuğrul Bey.
-I'd like to welcome you all, as well. -Thank you, Ertuğrul Bey.
We are happy to see you.
-Aziz. -Yes, Your Highness.
Why didn't Emir Nizamettin attend?
It was because he was sick, Your Highness.
However, he sent you a gift box.
Nizamettin.
My loyal emir.
He knows best what to gift me.
Bring it over here, let's see what's inside.
Yes, Your Highness.
With this conquest, there's a new order in trade.
First of all, with the peace we will provide,
trades at the inn will be safer and more fruitful.
We will keep the taxes low.
The Bazaar will grow two-fold.
Every merchant that comes here must leave with satisfaction,
so that wherever he goes he will preach
just how abundant and peaceful a place the Hanlı Bazaar is.
That way, people from all over the world will come here to trade.
If you expand the trade,
our people will prosper and be rich.
Long live Ertuğrul Bey! We are happy that you are here.
-Thank you. -Ertuğrul Bey.
Yes, my tradesman.
We'd like you to accept this Persian carpet
as thanks for your kindness.
Thank you.
Open it up, Aziz.
Atsız.
Bastards.
This will be your grave, Ertuğrul.
You won't even have a grave, Ares.
O God!
What's this?
What's the meaning of this?
Make way!
It's a poisoned arrow.
It's poisoned.
It's a trap, Your Highness.
Aziz!
Is this chest not the chest Nizamettin sent me?
That's true, sir. I brought it myself.
How could emir Nizamettin do this?
Nizamettin is a loyal emir of mine.
I'd expect anyone but him to do this.
-What's all that noise? -It's coming from inside.
-Let's go in. -Ertuğrul Bey.
I'm here, sir.
Make way, brothers.
Brothers, push!
They closed this door too.
Come on!
Sir!
My brother!
