-Mehmed.
-You were surprised to see me.
Who were you expecting, Vlad?
-Komnenos.
-Komnenos.
Komnenos, huh?
Did you show so
much effort to k*ll him?
Why did you attempt
to do that? Tell me.
He's your enemy.
Your confident Komnenos will be
here shortly and reveal all the secrets.
This is your last chance, Vlad.
Speak.
What secrets, brother?
Wait.
Just wait.
Where are you taking me?
You came here yourself.
You didn't send Bahadir.
You could have sent
Bahadir. But you came yourself.
When Sultan Murad put me
in here, you looked after me.
You're doing the same now.
You didn't give up on me, brother.
You didn't.
Don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid.
He is our brother.
We grew up together.
He was always with us.
Don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid. He's our
brother. Don't be afraid.
Brother, don't k*ll us.
Brother.
Brother, don't give up on me.
Do not give up on me.
Don't k*ll our
brotherhood, Mehmed.
Please don't k*ll our brotherhood.
If you k*ll our brotherhood,
...1 will be your biggest enemy.
This is the day
of reckoning, Vlad.
The day of reckoning.
The whole army
are looking, but...
...we couldn't find your
shahzade Suleyman around here.
How longer can we wait
with all these soldiers?
Sultan Mehmed gave us a golden
opportunity to save our reputations.
We have to find him.
What if we can't?
You're on a very thin line
between life and death, Komnenos.
Either you will tell me the truth and live with
your family in Edirne in an appropriate house...
...that I will provide for you.
...or you will die.
What do you want from me?
Who told you where
I would attack?
Who sent you my plan? Tell me.
Do you think you could
have taken the city...
...if I had known
about your plans?
Admit the fact that we all know.
So your life will be spared.
Otherwise, your terrible fate
will be a lesson for your kin.
I am megas David Komnenos.
The last of a dynasty
living for 4 centuries.
I won't tell you
anything, Mehmed.
Someone will definitely
avenge me one day.
My last wish from god is...
I hope your enemies
live longer than you.
As to Vlad,
...he is another
demon just like you.
Even if he had told me about your
plans, I wouldn't have trusted him.
Megas David Komnenos.
I punish people who turn
against the cause of Allah.
I'm Sultan Mehmed
Khan the conqueror.
With Allah's permission, I will
live longer than all of my enemies.
Until I reach my red apple,
...every traitor...
...and every heathen...
...will be beheaded by me.
I gave you a chance.
Now declare your decision.
You will lose, Mehmed!
You think Rome is dead.
The others had the same idea!
But the lands of Rome
became a graveyard for them!
You will be the next!
A Turkish Khan is sitting on the
ruined throne of the obsolete Rome now!
Those who raise their
heads will lose their heads!
-My Sultan, yes.
-Are there any news?
Your shahzade Suleyman has went
to Karaova with his infidel soldiers.
They are waiting for Ottoman
shahzades in ambush.
We're leaving,
to k*ll the traitors!
My Sultan.
It is impossible for us to
reach Karaova until sunrise.
Put wings on the
horses if you need to.
Make the flames go out
of their legs. Move now!
Komnenos did not sell you
out for you to have your revenge.
Don't you think I see that?
-Then k*ll me and end this.
-If you had your wits about you..
...i] Wouldn't wait a second
to have your head here.
However, k*lling a
person who is not himself..
...is not correct..
...both in the laws
nor in sharia.
First, let that fog settled
in your head disappear.
So that you may understand..
...what you did was
treason, not loyalty.
Until then..
-...you will stay here in prison.
-I won't go to prison here.
Don't put me in this
hole. I won't, Mehmed.
A person who is not himself
cannot make sound decisions.
I will take your voivodeship
from you otherwise.
Your brother is
already informed.
Mehmed, Wallachia
is everything to me.
-Do not take Wallachia from me, Mehmed!
-Listen to me!
-Do not take Wallachia from me!
-Listen to me.
Listen.
This is the sound decision for both
you, Wallachia and it's people, Aghas!
Wallachia is everything
to me, Mehmed!
You will have plenty of time
here to come to your senses.
This is your last
chance, Vlad. Think well.
-Mehmed, k*ll me instead!
-Think well.
k*ll me! k*ll me, Mehmed!
Don't do this! Don't
make me your enemy!
Don't do this! Don't do this!
Have my most skill full chefs..
.Treat him well.
Until he comes to his senses..
...to everything necessary.
You remember the oath we took in
the hearth of Janissaries, brother?
If I go astray, may the sword..
...1 hold cut my own throat.
May I be chopped
with my own sword!
May I be shaken as the ground!
May I be scattered as the soil!
Mustafa.
Horsemen, get ready!
Come on!
Grant us aid, o Allah.
Come on, valiants! Come on!
Grandfather!
Mustafa!
My Mustafa, are you alright?
Thanks to you, grandfather.
Suleyman!
Come on, don't hold back.
Come on. Come on.
You dastard.
Come on, we're leaving!
Suleyman!
My shahzade! Shahzade!
Protect the shahzade!
The road splits into three!
We don't know where he went!
We lost him.
A father who has brave sons like
you will never be brought to his knees.
My lions.
Mashaallah.
Especially you, Bayezid.
You've perfectly done your duty...
...as a shahzade and a brother.
You used to say that a father is
the secret of a son, my Hunkar.
Whatever is seen in us comes
from your hidden mystery.
Mashaallah.
Mashaallah.
You've raised brave
children, Mehmed Khan.
O, the fate...
What Haram did we ever commit that we
became the father of such a sinful child?
My valiants. It's
been a long time.
Your mothers must
have missed you.
Do not keep them waiting and
make them miss you even more. Go.
Go and see them. Come on
my lion. Come on my Mustafa.
You taught our
morals to Suleyman.
You taught our
traditions to Suleyman.
The pit he fell into is the
result of his own ignorance.
Do not look for
the fault in yourself.
How could I let that
insolent run away from me?
I am still in pain.
I could not k*ll the one who stepped
on our throat and stained our honor.
Shame on me.
You could not k*ll the one
who stained your honor but...
...you saved your grandson
Mustafa who will do you proud.
Thanks to my Allah.
If my heart still beats in this
old body, it is for Mustafa's sake.
Why do you say old
body, Ibrahim Khan?
You are an experienced young
man. You have many days to fight.
Eyvallah.
My Sultan. Why did you bother
yourself? We would handle it.
My mother has come from a long
way, Daye. How would that bother me?
And she thinks she
is doing something.
I've told her for a thousand times. The
table is not set after the guest's arrival.
Daye. You go to the kitchen
and see if the desserts are ready.
You too, Reyhan Agha.
In the past, one would know her homeland. One
would respect and visit her mother and father.
Even that is gone now.
Mother... do you think I didn't
want to come and see you?
Look at my face, mother.
Look into my eyes.
Your daughter whose knee
bled and you ran to her...
...the daughter whose single tear would
break your heart is standing before you.
The daughter that you hid in
your arms when you were young...
...the daughter you put to
sleep by loving her hair...
...the daughter you married
off with a red yell. It is me.
Even if I wander the world for a thousand years, the
place I will take refuge is still by your side, mother.
If there is any other homeland for me in this
world, it is none other than your shadow.
Mother.
My Mustafa. -My son.
Kiss your grandmother's hand.
My mother told me a lot
about you, grandmother.
How you put her to sleep,
how you braided her hair.
She said that you would
sing lullabies to her.
My mother sings the same lullabies for me,
saying they are entrusted to her by you.
My Mustafa.
The one whose name
I could not mention...
The one I could not smell
enough, my Mustafa...
I looked for your scent
whenever the wind blew.
I looked for your name
whenever someone whispered.
I would have scowled even
more, but pray for this child.
Sure I will, mother. I
pray both for my Mustafa...
...and for you.
We need to reach our
red apple by fighting.
We need to turn the red apple into our
homeland and bring it together with Islam.
Our red apple was Pontus.
We turned it into
Trabzon, an islamic land.
May our first council after the
conquest be auspicious and blessed.
Aameen.
The whole world is our red apple.
Therefore, let's put it
right before our feet.
Let's all see together
what its fate is going to be.
The first Rome was
the Constantinople.
It fell.
The second Rome was Pontus.
It fell.
The era of the eastern
Roman empire is how over.
As I always say...
Now the next target is the
third Rome, the Vatican.
Because Khalid Ibn
al-Walid said that...
...the lions of Allah will not stop
until the last fortress of Rome falls.
With Allah's permission.
Your ancestor Yildirim
Bayezid Khan once said...
"I will feed my horse with grain at the
altar of the San Pierre church in Rome."
These words will come true
during your sultanate, inshaallah.
-Inshaallah.
-Inshaallah.
My Sultan. When I went to the Pope
as an envoy, I examined the situation.
I am certain that after Pontus'
conquest, they will surely take action.
In the land of pale-faced people, England,
the w*r of the roses has not yet ended.
The great w*r between the Poles and the
teutonic knights is still ongoing. Here.
In andalusia, Castile and
aragon are still enemies.
Moreover, the duchies in Italy
are divided into a thousand pieces.
My Hunkar. The Pope cannot make a move
against us without uniting all of them.
His only hope was the holy relics,
and he could not take them either.
You are right. But...
His move is not finished, Lala.
Let my deputy, my grand vizier Mahmud
Pasha explain the details of this to us.
My Sultan.
By losing the holy relics, the
Pope has lost only one piece.
Now he will make a
much stronger move.
A new game is being
set beyond the danube.
Maybe they are step by step preparing
a order even greater than the crusades.
The most difficult struggle we
have ever faced is approaching.
Mehmed destroyed eastern Rome.
And we're on the
point of the arrows.
Western Rome.
If we go for them, we will
give them what they want.
Our new plan is to choke
them in our own lands.
If we draw Turks here, with
what power can we choke them?
Hungarian kingdom.
Our leverage isn't Hungarians
themselves but the fear they spread around.
It's the fear which will unite the
christians who scattered away.
Stefan Tomasevic, the
King of Bosnia, is here.
Bosnians are heathens of Bogomil
sect who are hostile to catholics.
Why would the King of
such a country be here?
My plan has already
started working.
You still don't see.
Let him in.
Stefan Tomasevic.
It's been long time since I
last a Bosnian King in Vatican.
Including his father who
pledged loyalty to Sultan Mehmed.
My father is dead.
I'm Stefan Tomasevic.
Not a sword hiding
in its sheathe.
But I'm here to be a sword
shining with blood for christianity.
Hungarians.
They will intimidate the Christian
states beyond Rumelia with Hungarians.
And so, they will try to
keep them in the same line.
What's worse, they're playing
this game on our vassal states.
Our vassals aren't afraid
of Hungarians but us.
Otherwise, they would have pledged
loyalty to Hungarians instead of us.
New kings on the throne always
try to bring a new order, Pasha.
And one of them is the new King
of Bosnia. Stephan Tomasevic.
-I know.
-Yes.
You're the one in the council who knows
best about those lands, Sehabettin Pasha.
You performed many
raids on Bosnia in the past.
What do you know
about Stefan Tomasevic.
He isn't as obedient
as his father.
He's peevish, tricky and
has a sharp sense of politics.
But he isn't so crazy that he
would put his kingdom in danger.
His step-mother
is Queen Katarina.
She's a catholic at
least as well as he is.
According to the information
we got from our spies,
...the gates of Pope got
opened for him with her regards.
He's in Vatican now. We
all know what that means.
You're pledging loyalty to Pope as
the King of the county of Bogomils.
They are heathens who don't accept
Christ as god's son, deny the church...
And they are hostile to Pope.
Only some part of my
people are Bogomils.
Does anyone doubt
my catholic belief?
Although I came here with
Queen Katarina's regards?
You all know she's
a faithful catholic.
Bosnia is like a wall in the
middle of catholic Europe.
It's pleasing that such a precious
country pledged loyalty to us.
If you want me to keep the
Hungarian threat away in return...
I'm not here because
I'm afraid of Hungarians!
I'm here to finish the job that
Hungarians failed in Belgrade.
What Hunyadi Janos couldn't do.
A w*r against Sultan Mehmed.
But still, you keep
paying taxes to them.
And still, you are
subject to them.
I told you I'm a sword
shining with blood.
And this sword is enough
to cut all the subjects.
I just want you to
support me in this w*r.
Don't worry, Stefan. You will
be the rising sword of christianity.
You will finish what
Hunyadi Janos couldn't finish.
On my own?
What about your support?
I will send you a powerful ally.
Bread is the body of Jesus.
And this is his blood.
I will bless your
kingdom with Jesus' spirit.
However.
I need you to
make an oath first.
You will clear Bogomils
from your lands.
However, they are my people.
Your people real christians who
obey the church and the Pope.
They are infidels who deny them.
If you wish you
kingdom to be blessed..
...you need to be loyal.
Bosnia is in the middle of
Rome's catholic chamber.
It is like a castle
between us and them.
That is why, Pope will
want to take it in his hands.
Also, Stefan Tomosevic..
...is a person that can
make any alliances.
However, we will not
allow that to happen.
We will make Stefan
Tomosevic remember..
...who he is loyal to..
...and who holds the strands
of his throne and his state.
As the Beylerbeyi of Rumelia, I am
making the preparations, my Sultan.
Bahadir Pasha, I do not doubt
that you will handle this, however..
...you need to stay
ready and alert..
...with Akinjis and Timarli
Sipahis at Rumelia.
My Hunkar. If you allow me..
...i wish to go to Stefan
Tomosevic as an envoy.
Lala.
This is not an easy task.
Stefan Tomosevic is a danger..
...that cannot be predicted.
He knows me well, even
though he is dangerous.
If he went out of his road..
...or betrayed us, I know the
language to put him in line.
You have great
knowledge of politics.
Your sharp tongue..
...may not work out in this task.
As the Bosnia you're about to go
may not look the same you last went.
I am aware of the hardships, my
Hunkar. These hone me further only.
Years ago, at the
b*ttlefield in Bosnia..
.I've made it a
part of our state.
Do not hold me back from
a task like this, my Hunkar.
Alright.
Alright.
O, the companions of the hearth!
O, the valiants..
...who wrote their
names in the sky..
...with their swords under the
flag of three Crescent banner!
Some of you became veterans..
...and some of you
has put their brothers..
...beneath the ground
after this battle. However!
Death to the believers,
battle to the soldiers..
...and martyrdom to
those fight, is destiny!
Today, you made
our Hunkar proud..
...and made enemy regret!
This treasure won't be halal,
without the blood of valiants!
That is why..
...this halal treasury
is fit for you!
Our aqgada is boiling!
Our swords shine!
Our hearts wait with pride!
Let us chant 'hu'..
-...to our unity, valiants!
-Hu!
Every middle Agha..
...will have their share
depending on their service!
Constantinople,
Pontus, Isfendiyar..
...we've become
victorious with all of them..
...with Allah's permission and
Rasulullah's intercession, evelallah!
Now, many conquests
await us inshallah!
Our sword holding hands
grew tired Agha, let us rest first.
Besides, let us enjoy
the treasury we got, Agha.
We knew no rest
in our Sultan's era.
Janissaries have
the right, Agha.
The army of Islam..
...does not stop!
Does not tire!
Does not rest, valiants!
Come, Lala. Sit down.
Aren't you tired?
Or think about resting at all?
Do you think someone else
should take my place, my Hunkar?
No one can fill your
place easily, Lala.
You've been working
for half a century.
I never heard you
saying you re tired.
A wolf digs its own grave..
...slowly, my Hunkar.
In order for us to sleep
with peace tomorrow..
...we need to fight today.
May you prosper. May
Allah Grant you long life.
To you as well, my Hunkar.
We knew your
skills from Enderun.
We saw your
strength at the fields.
You did great service to the state.
Wallachia, moldavia, Serbia, Bosnia..
...you went everywhere.
Especially Bosnia. If
Bosnia is our vassal today..
.It is because of your
sweat on your head..
...and the blood on your sword.
Astaghfirullah, my Hunkar.
I only followed my
Hunkar's commands.
Eyvallah.
Now, King Stefan. How is
he? What do you know of him?
The last I saw Stefan, he
was ambitious and fearless.
He would do everything to win.
-Just like Vlad Tepes.
-Don't say his name.
Apologies, my Hunkar.
-What will happen to Vlad?
-I sentenced him to live.
Like a beggar.
As you know, under sharia,
execution of mad men is forbidden.
Vlad's life will be
spent in those cells.
Inshallah, my Hunkar.
Yusuf!
Give this edict to Tomosevic.
If he does not comply..
.Tell him that he
will be beheaded.
As our Hunkar command.
Come on then.
However..
...be cautious, Lala.
A sacrificial can
always be found..
...however, a Sahabeddin won't
come to the world again easily.
Take care.
Come on. Come on.
May you prosper, my Hunkar.
May you prosper.
Don't be afraid now.
Don't be afraid now.
Don't be afraid.
Don't be afraid now.
It is time to eat.
Let go! Let go!
Don't! I have a
sick mother! Don't!
Move! Go away! -This is our last sack!
-We are not taking these for ourselves...
We are taking them for the
house of god. Do not cause trouble!
Are you standing against us?!
-Please don't...
Move! -Why are you collecting
taxes only from the Bogomil village?
Why don't you collect taxes from
the other village? -Move!
Shut up!
Please don't take
them... that's all we have.
I have kids! What are
they going to eat now?
Step back!
Father! Are you alright?
-I am alright, my daughter.
Sir... -Sir!
-Did anyone see you??
-No one did, sir.
Take Irena. Go to Targovishte.
Tell her that it is the order of Fatih Sultan Mehmed.
-Yes sir.
Tell Boyars. Vlad Tepes
the third is hosting a feast.
What about you, sir?
I have a small
matter to take care of.
Don't you understand Pedri? I can
only seek help from Uzun Hasan.
Be smart, Suleyman. Be smart.
Will you go back to where you started
and become a refugee again? Be smart.
I told you that great
minds think alike, Pedri.
Are you going to give
up so easily, Draven?
I could live with defeat.
But never with shame.
Accept that we've been defeated
and find yourself a hew way, Pedri.
It's not the defeated who lose,
I it's the ones who give up, Draven.
Do you understand?
Those who give up lose.
Your brother Justiniani... are you
running away without taking his revenge?
With whom am I going
to take revenge, Pedri?
With a defeated shahzade...
...or with an ordinary soldier?
Get this already, Pedri. We
have no name, no reputation now!
No one will follow us.
We are alone.
Brave loners can defeat
cowardly crowds, Draven.
If you still want to
take revenge, of course.
All the books in the library have been
categorized as you said, my Hunkar.
Good, Lutfi.
You can leave.
Lutfi. You stay.
Sit. Sit right here.
How is your situation?
Alhamdulillah, my Hunkar. I
am praying for your well-being.
You have refreshed your knowledge about
Bosnia, haven't you? -Yes my Hunkar.
Then you must have learned
everything about those lands in detail.
I tried, my Hunkar.
Tell me about Bosnia in detail.
What is the secret of Bosnia?
Bogomils, my Hunkar.
The King's sect is catholic, and therefore there is
a conflict between the Bogomils and the catholics.
Right. Because the
catholics want the churches...
...to be maintained
and taxes to be paid.
And the Bogomils say "'why are we paying taxes to the
church? Taxes are meant for the welfare of the people.”
Exactly, my Sultan.
Just as you said.
But the Bogomils steal
what is taken from them.
They raid the
caravans and loot them.
They force the
state to intervene.
So you are saying that the conflict between the
Bogomils and the catholics is a bottomless pit.
Yes. Because
the catholics say...
'The Bogomils do not
pay taxes. They rebel.
They are engaging in
banditry in the mountains.
They disturb the order.'
but in return, the
Bogomils say...
... the catholics forcibly
take what is rightfully ours.
They seize our property, and on
top of that, they demand taxes."
The Bogomils are just like us.
They believe that those vile nails were
not driven into the hands of prophet Isa.
They consider all the icons, statues,
and images in churches to be idols...
...and just like us, they
never worship before them.
If they were to know
and understand Islam...
Who knows, very strong muslims
would emerge from among them.
Come on. Bring the Saltuk name.
As you order.
We are grateful to you, son. In the
name of our church and all christians.
Looking after our
churches is our duty.
All goods are brought
here from around.
-More sacks will come though, will it not?
-Do not worry.
We're taxing Bogomils steadily.
-Then, good work, son.
-Thank you.
Come on then. Be careful.
Be quick.
-Hey! Help me!
-What?
Help! I was taking
the goods we took..
...from Bogomils
to Bobovac castle.
They cut us off.
I barely escaped.
Who? How many are there?
Bogomilian bandits. I don't
know, there were many.
Where are they? At the
crossroads near the gates.
They ran towards the forest.
You, come with me.
You too, come.
What are you waiting for? Move!
The cellar of the church will
be unprotected if we leave.
Are you defying my orders
for a couple of sacks?
How will we catch all
these people with few of us?
Come on, move! Move!
Let us catch up to them!
-King Stefan Tomosevic!
-Long live our King!
Long live our King!
Long live our King!
Long live our King!
Long live our King!
Why didn't Queen Katarina..
...come out to greet me?
Queen Katarina!
My Queen.
I got worried as I couldn't see
you in the welcome ceremony.
I'm sure you had
an important reason.
It isn't easy to carry the
title as the mother of Bosnia.
Managing everything
and everyone...
...keeps me quite occupied.
Soon I will save
you from occupation.
Don't be worrying.
I got blessed by Pope.
Thanks to that, the threat of
Hungarians will be eliminated.
We will get rid of the yokes put
around the neck of our kingdom.
That was the most important.
You are exactly the King I want
to see on the throne of Bosnia.
You did the best.
I will regain what
my father lost.
The kingdom of
Bosnia will grow bigger.
And it will be the most powerful empire
where all christians can take shelter.
And then you won't
have to be so occupied.
Katarina, the mother of Bosnia,
will live as only my step-mother.
Just like I wish.
I'm honored...
...you care about me
among all those great goals.
But...
If there is another gate which is shut at your
faces, excludes you and you can't pass through,
...i can open it with
my regards again.
Don't be worrying.
My Sultan, Radu Tepesh from
Walachia beylic wants to see you.
Come closer.
How many years?
I think it's been 15
years, my Sultan.
Fifteen years since I
left the Ottoman palace.
Fifteen years, huh?
It's like yesterday.
I remember us running
around the school garden...
...and swinging sword
in the training field.
I wasn't very good
at using a sword.
Each person is different, Radu.
You have skills for the pen
and science not the sword.
Come in!
I got this made for you.
It must be so valuable.
I appreciate that.
-I know you, Radu. You used to like the inkwell a lot.
-Right.
But I know you too and...
Sultan Mehmed I know wouldn't
invite me only to give me this.
That's right.
That's right. Come in!
This is the reason
why I invited you.
This is...
This is the mace given to
the Voivode of Walachia.
Did...
Did...
Did something happen
to my brother Vlad?
He made a mistake.
He made mistakes that
wouldn't suit brotherhood.
-Is he dead?
-He isn't.
But I took everything from him.
From now on, Vlad is nothing.
Where is he now?
In the dungeon. The
dungeon of Tokat.
You know, Radu. The throne
would never accept vacancy.
For this reason,
...now you are the
Voivode of Walachia.
I don't doubt that I
can trust you for this.
I beat you again, Vlad.
I stumbled. Otherwise,
you could never beat me.
Train with me too,
brother. Come on.
You can never train
with swords, Radu!
Get out of my way!
Well... my Sultan.
-I can't do this...
-You can, Radu.
I'm sure you can.
I'm sure you can do it properly.
My Sultan, Zagnos Pasha is here.
-Do you have anything to say?
-No, my Sultan.
Go ahead then.
Black is the color of mourning.
There is h* thing
to mourn for tonight.
Right, mermaid?
-It looks great on you, though.
-Hmm.
Maybe another time.
You can wear blue then.
It symbolizes
loyalty as you know.
Loyalty.
I have nothing to
do with loyalty now.
Actually, I'm forbidding
that word in Walachia.
I pick red. Tonight
will be special.
Good.
You look some pale.
Do you regret coming here?
No.
You did many things for me.
And I'm grateful for that.
Leaving Constantinople...
Coming to me... isn't
it terrifying for you?
For a beautiful girl like you?
I had nothing
left in this world.
And you gave me hope.
Are your guests
important people?
Boyars. We are ruling
Wallachia together.
But of course, I am the
one who says the last word.
I want to know all of Wallachia
at least as well as I know you.
You don't know me, Irena.
Speak, little prince.
Guests have started arriving.
Then let the fun begin.
My sons... today...
...]i will not only
teach you a language.
Today, I will let you read
the memory of a great lineage.
Chagatai is not just a language.
Chagatai is a prayer
said on horseback...
...ah oath carved into
the handle of a sword.
Because our ancestors carried
their word not first on their tongues...
...but in their hearts.
They used to say, if the word is
crooked, the path will also be crooked.
That is why the letters
of the Turks are straight.
Therefore, never forget that...
...if a nation loses
its language...
...it first loses its
name and then its path.
And do not forget
as well that...
...the greatness of a student is known by the
morality they show in the absence of their teacher.
If the teacher
sees, they teach...
...if they do not
see, they test.
And sometimes an old student wonders
whether their teacher still sees them.
But the teacher..
...never forgets even the
shadow of their student...
...just as he has not forgotten
the shadow of Radu tepee.
Go now, lions.
You may go for now.
-Lala.
-Radu.
-Come, son.
-Lala.
Come on, give me a hug.
My son...
I know why you are here.
May your new duty be blessed.
I hope so.
Why do you seem upset?
With our Sultan's praise, you
became the Voivode, Radu.
My brother Vlad... he
deserves the throne, Lala.
Besides, Boyars obey him. I
don't think they'll accept me.
You've deserved it
right from the beginning.
You've deserved it
right from the beginning.
Besides, they will learn they
must obey you soon. Or...
...you will make them learn.
I hope so.
Besides, you could not say you don't want it to
our Sultan and you brought the mace with you.
There is nothing else to
do. You will sit on that throne.
I'll go back to Wallachia first. I'll announce
that my health condition is not good...
...and will ask to be dethroned.
Maybe then our
Sultan will allow me.
Ah Radu... ah Radu.
You'll never change, right?
You used to do the same thing
when you wanted to skip classes.
Come on. We have mutancana.
Let's eat and enjoy, huh?
Come on.
The Voivode of
Wallachia Vlad Tepes!
Good evening, dear
nobles of Wallachia.
Welcome.
You are the guest of
honor of this night, Irena.
I do not wish you
to miss anything.
Thank you for the
feast. However..
...we didn't think you'd
be here for easter.
I wanted to celebrate the
birthday of Jesus Christ with you.
With you, my dear compatriots.
You used to not care
too much about easter.
That was Vlad Tepes.
I am Vlad Dracula.
The real reason I am here is
to tell you something important.
I am no longer the
Voivode of Wallachia.
Fatih Sultan Mehmed..
...has wanted me to resign.
And have Radu take my place.
And I accepted.
I was tired and bored anyways.
Radu is better at
this, as you know.
He loves doing
this, more than me.
Isn't that true, Giorgi?
To be honest, we are at times
where we need Radu's centered views.
No one wants their
trade to be halted.
Isn't that true?
Without a doubt.
What about you, my
dear cousin Freda?
You won't k*ll Radu because
he took the throne from me?
Sultan Mehmed
has given the order.
Going against him is not wise.
It is not wise.
It is even madness.
Madness.
Make your preparations,
commander.
We're heading to Bosnia.
Won't we explain
this situation to Radu?
This situation does
not need an explanation.
You will get to know me
in time. And when you do..
...you will like me.
They've sprouted
nicely, my Hunkar.
Our rabb has every beauty
in his seasons, thank Allah.
Yes.
Allahu mm a salli ala
sayyidina Muhammad.
Here.
Water cleans
both blood and dirt.
-My Sultan.
-My Pasha.
We've settled turkmens
from Dulkadiroglu to Trabzon.
However, we need to
build a mosque as well.
Did you choose a space?
-Boztepe, my Hunkar.
-Alright.
My Hunkar.
You already turned the
church there into a mosque.
It is quite spacious.
People can pray there
together comfortably.
Molla... do you think a
mosque is only for praying?
Doesn't it have a kitchen?
Giving away food to the poor?
Of course, my Hunkar.
It even has a library.
-Supporting knowledge.
-Then?
Aren't those also prayers?
Yes.
That is why every mosque is a
help center for a neighborhood.
Of course.
Build a mosque there at once.
Let it be a helping hand..
-...both Muslim and non-Muslim.
-As you command, my Hunkar.
Where will we plant
the November flower?
Daffodil, hyacinth and November
flower says Ibn-Ul Baytar in the book.
So you've read it.
Bosnia castle
Those dastard Bogomils.
How did they Rob the church?
Weren't you
supposed to guard it?
-We were at our posts, my Queen.
-Is that so?
Then how did that happen?
How did a few
wretched Bogomilian..
...got inside?
Knight Kleo.
He told us Bogomils
attacked him.
So he told us to leave-
they cut us off.
That is why we had to
ask help from guards.
Take these fools out of here.
Who made us fools
against Bogomils.
Give them the punishment
of robbing god's home.
A similar thing
happened last winter.
And Bogomils robbed
the church again.
There are a lot of
Bogomilian here.
You also may know.
However, it always
happen to you.
I am also harmed.
They also took the supplies
we took from castle Bobovac.
You are the closest knight..
...of my daughter for years.
It's a wonder how she
can keep someone like you.
Collect new taxes from this area
for the church that was plundered.
Especially from the Bogomils.
Everything must be more
magnificent than before.
The wealth of our churches
must dazzle other people.
My Queen, forgive me.
But we have already taken one
third of their possessions as tax.
If we take more, they will have
nothing left to pay us next year.
Let them starve to
death if they wish.
I do not care about any of them.
My Queen. Vlad Tepes has crossed the Sava
river in the north. He is coming to the palace.
Not to the palace.
Bring him to me first.
Are you not ashamed to throw
this man out into the street in winter?
Then he must pay
the rent I ask for.
How many coins are
you paying this man?
Thirty coins.
How much do you want?
At least forty coins.
You raised the price
just two months ago.
Have some mercy.
Is he telling the truth?
Yes, but life is getting more
expensive. This is not enough for me.
No, you cannot raise the
price whenever you want.
You cannot tell a tenant to
leave whenever you wish.
As long as he does not damage the
house, cause trouble in the neighborhood...
...and pays his debt on time...
... you cannot tell
your tenant to leave.
Take this man away.
For other people
to learn a lesson...
...put him backward
on a donkey...
...and show him to
his neighborhood.
Hizir Celebi is handling
the matters here.
Let's go to the bazaar and...
...see what burden we
can take from his shoulders.
Come on.
I was surprised that the
Pope presented you as an ally.
What surprised you, my Queen?
Your friendship with Mehmed,
the greatest enemy of christianity.
That Vlad is dead.
I strangled him
with my own hands.
Imagine what I would
do to my enemies.
That is exactly why
I called you here.
Is the King not here?
I can speak to the King. Being alone with the Queen
in church corners does not seem very appropriate.
All the strings of Bosnia
are in my hands, Vlad.
I am the one who placed the King on the throne, and
I am also the one who can remove him whenever I wish.
You were like that during
the previous King's time.
Stefan is not like him.
Who was it that opened the
doors of the papacy to him?
Who..
...enabled him to
gain this power?
It was me Vlad.
And you...
...are a sword...
...that the Pope sent here.
The strings that unites you two in
the same goal is also in my hands.
Now you've spoken
like a true Queen.
Like a real woman.
I invited you here
for a reason, Vlad.
We will bless the
collaboration between us...
...before god.
And we'll swear
that it is a secret.
I like sealing my vows
with blood, my Queen.
The blood of our
enemy Ottomans...
...shall be our seal.
Sealing with blood...
...will suit our
collaboration perfectly.
Then...
Let's start with the
blood of Bogomils.
-Bogomils?
-Yes.
Pope wants those deviants
to be destroyed first.
It doesn't matter to me.
Show us how powerful...
...our ally is.
May god protect Queen.
It isn't good that
Kleo came here.
He wouldn't have come to this Bogomil village
if it weren't for an important reason.
What if the incident
last night got revealed?
You can ask him when he comes.
-Hello.
-Did he learn everything?
This time, they will come
to get everything from us.
Didn't they Rob us just recently
saying that they were collecting taxes?
He wants everything.
We should take our
things away immediately.
-And hide them in the cave for a while.
-Until when?
Everything will be alright
after he comes around.
However, we need some time.
Maybe, we should
intimidate Katarina.
And she will stop this pillage.
Don't you know she
isn't afraid of anyone?
Especially when she's
together with Vlad.
Vlad? What would
Vlad be doing in Bosnia?
You're asking too
many questions.
I want to know everything about
my people. Is this too much?
Here you are, my Bey.
Won't you take some, my Bey?
-Selamun aleykum.
-Aleykum selam, my Bey. Welcome.
-Where is this from?
-The valley of Cubuk, my Bey.
Let me offer you some.
Please eat, my Bey.
-Eyvallah.
-Enjoy it, my Bey.
You can take some too, my Bey.
Enjoy it, my Bey.
-Do you like it, my Bey?
-Alhamdulillah.
May Allah be pleased, my Bey.
-Good bye, my Bey.
-5 coins for one meter.
My price is 5
coins for one meter.
Nice fabrics here!
-Selamun aleykum.
-Selamun aleykum. -Aleykum selam
welcome, my Bey.
Fine quality fabrics here.
It looks good, but...
...it isn't turkmen
fabric. From Europe?
Yes, my Bey. But it's as
good as the fabric of Bursa.
And for the half price.
Why is it for half price then?
Obviously, it lacks something.
Not at all, my Bey. In the capital city of Sultan
Mehmed, there can never be cheats or tricks.
Why is it cheaper then?
-Have you ever heard about Bogomils in Bosnia?
-Yes.
They have had a never-ending
w*r against catholics for years.
So do you buy the goods of
people in trouble for cheaper price?
Would that suit a Muslim?
Be quiet, my Bey. I don't want
to stand trial before a judge.
So how do you get this goods?
Those who immigrate to save their lives sell
their goods to tradesmen for cheaper prices.
And I buy them from tradesmen.
Shall I prepare this
for you, my Bey?
This is the third time I have
heard about Bogomils, Pasha.
Obviously, they are ill-treated.
Well... neglecting the cruelty
would never suit a Muslim.
We'll do the necessary.
Will we have a
campaign on Bosnia?
Ottomans perform two kinds of campaign. One
with steel swords and armies spreading death!
And the other one with wise men
winning hearts with wooden swords.
What's your order, my Hunkar?
Welcome, we
have a table for you.
If you give me fat less
meat, I will hurt you.
Sehabettin Pasha. I'm
sorry I couldn't recognize you.
It's been a long time
since I saw you here.
-Won't you let me sit?
-Please sit.
I'm here to show myself around.
My son will be happy.
-Well... how is naughty Alen?
-He feels grateful to you everyday.
Though everyone thought he
was a cr*pple, you gave him a job.
And you helped him get married.
-How are the things going here?
-It's alright, my Pasha.
I wish you were here
too. That would be great.
Bahadir Pasha became
the Bey of beys in Rumelia.
He's at least as good
as I am. Don't worry.
Sit.
I got information about
Stefan Tomasevic.
Whatever you heard, there
is even more, my Pasha.
There is a great danger.
-Enjoy it.
-Eyvallah.
As sweet as honey! Apricot
of Malatya. I really missed that!
Let me fulfill my longing
too. I love apricots of Malatya!
My Agha, when did
you go to Malatya?
I didn't know that.
Battal ghazi, my Allah let him rest
in heaven, was a close friend of mine.
Oh! Seriously?
We were having a raid together one day again. What
a raid! Going beyond mountains, rocks and rivers!
And we got hungry. So he
took out a bag of apricots.
Apricots of Malatya.
As sweet as honey!
I kept eating and eating.
First, I felt some great power.
Then it hit me in the
eye and I couldn't see.
Allah creates miracles!
Go ahead, my Agha.
And right then, I came
across Polemon and his army.
Those dastards, huh? Oh no.
Destroy them, my Agha!
Well... I wasn't seeing well.
This is it, I thought.
And right then Polemon spoke.
I will make you a lord
if you surrender, he said.
-I grabbed my bow.
I drew the bow and said...
Now I know where your mouth is.
I shot the arrow and it went through
his mouth and came out in his neck!
That's it!
Mashaallah!
Your mother must
be proud of you.
Look at my Sahan here.
Now, I can understand this one.
However, what are
you doing here, Sahan?
You came just in time, Agha. I was
telling him about the battles I fought.
May your conquest be
prosperous, my Sultan.
Astaghfirullah.
May it be the gospel of many
more conquests, inshallah.
-Aameen.
-Aameen.
The gospel seems
to be further Rumelia.
We took out the tumor of
eastern Rome, evelallah.
-Now, it is time for western Rome.
-Wherever there is a..
...darkness that
oppresses the world..
.It awaits the
light of Crescent.
Our swords are enough to
topple the oppressors, inshallah.
Our Sahabeddin Pasha
is already on the road.
However, our Mark of pride..
...is more than conquering lands.
Conquering of hearts.
The light that will choke
the darkness of oppression..
...is the light that will be
born with conquest of hearts.
This road requires
companions like sari Saltuk.
It requires dervishes
with wooden swords.
We've come to you for
guidance, my sheikh.
Our guiding light
is turku turk an..
...hoca Ahmed yes evil..
...the master of turkestan.
Meaning, the beacon of alperens.
This light is sufficient
to illuminate..
...all lands drowned in
the darkness of infidels..
.Alhamdulillah.
Let valiants march to conquests.
Sari Saltuks will march
to conquest of hearts.
Let steel swords be honed.
Wooden swords will be held.
However, you will head to
the b*ttlefield with steel swords.
My Sultan.
-What is it?
-My Sultan..
...i wouldn't have disturbed
you if it wasn't important.
My sheikh. Please.
My Sultan, Vlad Tepes..
...has broken out
of Tokat prison.
That is rebellion, my Hunkar.
So, we've told
blades to be honed.
Send word to Radu.
Tell him to be cautious.
From now on..
...Vlad Tepes is a rebel.
It is to be remained forever.
From now on, Vlad Tepes..
...is my enemy.
Have him beheaded.
He made a deal with the
Pope. He will no longer pay taxes.
So, what Mahmud
Pasha said was true.
Will the Pope protect
him from our wrath..
...or Hungarians?
He has someone
else protecting him.
Who?
Tell me.
Vlad. Vlad Tepes.
-Get up.
-Don't go, Pasha it'll be dangerous.
Battling hyenas is our destiny.
We accept our
fate no matter what!
Even if we have to lose
our heads in the end.
Sultan Mehmed...
...sent Sahabettin
Pasha as an envoy.
Apparently, they want to continue the order
they established during my father's time.
We will not pay
them taxes anymore.
What does Queen
Katarina think about this?
I am the King of Bosnia!
And you, as
Bosnia's feudal lords...
...will only obey the King.
Not paying them taxes,
rejecting the vassal position...
This would be a declaration of
hostility against Sultan Mehmed.
Don't forget how much your share
is from the taxes we pay to the Turks.
You can continue to be
friends with them if you want.
But when they're gone,
we'll be left alone here again.
Your majesty. The Ottoman
envoy Sahabettin Pasha is here.
Let him in.
Seeing you here after years...
It's a pleasure,
Sahabettin Pasha.
King Stefan.
I've known you since
you were a child.
The expression on your
face is not happiness, but fear.
The years have made
you forget me, Pasha.
Otherwise, you would
know that I fear no one.
Tell me.
I am listening to your owner.
The holder of the strings that determine
the fate of your country and throne...
Sultan Mehmed Khan...
...has sent you this decree
so that you pledge allegiance.
But...
...it was valid before we found
out about your betrayal, King Stefan.
If you consider my visit
to the Pope as betrayal...
I fulfilled the requirements
of my faith as a catholic King.
Your betrayal is not that
you went to the Pope.
Your betrayal is...
...the evil alliance you
formed with Vlad Tepes!
Do you think your brother
Vlad Tepes will meet you?
He always did. He will
meet me now as well.
But how?
The mace will not be my
fate but my brother Vlad's fate.
Radu tepee...
Your brother Vlad Dracula
sent his regards to you.
Alliance with Vlad? What are you
trying to do by accusing me of this?
Let me guess.
King Stefan is
not like his father.
He is brave and smart.
To be able to hold someone
like him in our hands...
...we need to scare
him, you thought.
Stop it, Stefan.
Stop telling me lies.
We understand what is on your mind
before it even reaches your tongue.
-Do not even try to deny it.
-I and Vlad...
...made an alliance,
King Stefan.
Traitor.
You are a traitor.
You are a treacherous
man. You betrayed...
...our Sultan, Sultan
Mehmed Khan.
Betrayal...
...is letting your
loyal friends down.
It is selling people you set out with to people
you find along the way, Sahabettin Pasha.
That's what Mehmed did to me.
Our Sultan Mehmed Khan was only
a brother to you. He did nothing else.
Despite the fact that you
did him wrong for many times!
He should've buried you instead of
putting you in the dungeons of Tokat!
You are a traitor!
The bloodthirsty bat has
escaped from its dungeon.
Are you going to
drink our blood?
Or will they do it?
Will a few soldiers
protect you from our wrath?
Are you going to take refuge
in that tiny castle of yours?
Tell me. Will these men, to whom we
granted thrones, save you from our hands?
It made sense when he
said it, what about you, King?
It is true.
However, if we all unite..
...this place will be a
grave for our enemies!
Pasha.
You traitor. I will
k*ll you myself.
I will k*ll you myself.
With my own hands-
Lala.
A falcon Sahabeddin
went through this world.
Vlad Tepes.
Ashhadu an la ilaha illa Allah..
...wa Ashhadu Anna-
Bismillah.
Come in.
My Sultan, as you've commanded,
all beys have given a Timar.
Alright, Zaganos.
I haven't seen you embellishing
like this for a long time, my Sultan.
Who are you preparing this
gift for? To one of shahzade's?
To Sahabeddin.
The first day I arrived at
Manisa, you gave me a nib..
...and Sahabeddin
gave me a dagger.
I remember.
I still keep them.
I wanted to give a
gift to my Lala as well.
He will be very
happy, my Sultan.
What do you think? You
have the eye, is it alright?
Astaghfirullah, my Sultan.
It looks marvelous, as always.
Come in.
My Sultan.
Sahabeddin Pasha.
Sehabettin Pasha...
What about him?
For the sake of the state,
the religion and the nation,
...he joined the
army of martyrs.
I'm Sehabettin. I had
no father and mother.
Yet I was like a falcon
thanks to the state.
Sehabettin whose story
started in the Enderun school...
...and ended twenty steps
ahead at the gate of glory.
I'm Sehabettin.
Doors in front me kept opening
but the ones behind me kept closing.
I always stayed
in the threshold.
These stones have
seen many victories...
...and witnessed many farewells.
Why did this crowd gather?
For Sehabettin's
victory or his farewell?
I'm leaving friends behind.
Honest friends worrying,
suffering and grieving.
They think my burden gets
lighter as the crowd grows bigger.
They don't know the
heaviest burden comes at last.
This is the final destination
that a life reaches.
The cold place where you
stay alone when people go away.
Lala...
It's time.
Words to say, steps to
take and bread to eat.
They are all over.
Now I'm turning my face to soil.
Without debts and
charges. With only my fate.
