02x21 - Episode 21

[bunniefuu]

I am not afraid of death, but I
fear that our efforts will be wasted.

I am afraid that the ummah
will be left without a leader.

A person's life is not
their own property...

...but they think the world's
wealth belongs to them, you said.

You dedicated your life and the
land you guarded to the true owner.

Now, can I do what you did...

...what I learned from
you, in the same way?

My Allah...

I am in need of your
help and blessings.

Finally, a successor who
will honor the Sultan's soul.

May your regency, and sultanate which will
spread in the name of the Zengi Sultan...

...be fortunate, strong, and
blessed, Sultan Salahuddin.

Aameen. -Aameen.

Finally, the one who deserves it is
in the rightful place. Thanks to Allah.

Some time ago...

...great Sultan
Nureddin Zengi said...

Leading the muslims is
like wearing a shirt of fire.

If you are not worthy, they will
take it from you along with your flesh.

May Allah...

...grant us the ability to fulfill this
duty properly, inshaallah. -Aameen.

My Sultan, what is your decision
for the dastard Gumustegin?

If he had repented and asked for forgiveness,
I would have helped and forgiven him.

But Gumustegin...

...sits on a mountain of arrogance and oppression and
still dares to challenge us. The decision is clear.

Begin the preparations
for execution.

What you are trying to swallow will
remain stuck in your throat, Salahuddin.

Keep thinking that
you have won...

Let me see my bey one last time.

There is an order,
no one can see him.

We are not going to talk. I just
want to see that my Emir is alright.

The soldiers are worried.

Don't stay for long.

Do you have any orders?

Gather my belongings from the palace
immediately. Leave nothing behind.

Do not forget my
personal treasure either.

My Efendi, I checked everywhere.

Your treasure is gone.
-What do you mean?

Salahuddin must have
found it and taken it away.

He would not do such a thing. If
he did, he would lose his legitimacy.

There must be something
else going on here, Karaca.

I brought your meals.
-Eyvallah. Thank you.

May it be shifa. -Thank you.
-Do whatever you can...

...to find Sultan Ismail.

My survival depends on him.

It's good. We were hungry.
-Enjoy.

We might not have
another chance to talk.

If I find the Sultan, should
I take him to aleppo?

Besides, we don't have soldiers.

We do. This time,
the plan is different.

Now listen to me carefully.

Damascus is our home,
our hearth and our tent.

Cairo, Mosul, aleppo, and many
islamic lands are warmed by its fire.

From now on, this
will be our ruling place.

We will guard the sultanate in Damascus,
the capital city of our great state.

Egypt belongs to us as well.

But one becomes the
strongest in his home.

It is your duty to safely
move our family here, Boru.

Set out as soon as possible.

As my Sultan orders.

Sultan Hadhrat, what about me?

I considered your support for our
plan as atonement for your crime.

But, you cannot
stay here any longer.

Musul Agha...

...return to your duty.

And never make a
move against us again.

I will be watching you.

Thanks to you, everything
has been revealed, my Sultan.

Do not doubt about my loyalty.

My Sultan...

Atsiz bey came back with good
news. He wants to talk to you.

What is the good news?

They have captured and brought the
enemy of Islam, Kerek's count, Chatillion.

Count Balian is
with them as well.

It seems Atsiz cast his
line deep. Let them come.

As you understand,
your majesty...

...the change of fronts in the Damascus army
under Salahuddin completely ruined our plans.

And you, Lord Guy...

...used this as an excuse and
returned to Jerusalem, right?

-I am not sure how much Queen Maria understands the
reality of the b*ttlefield, but... -Both his majesty and I...

...care about results.

And the result shows us that...

...the army you
sent to take Cairo...

...returned to Jerusalem
with empty hands.

As I said, your majesty, the reason for this
is the sudden change in the Damascus army.

We do not want to
hear excuses, Lord Guy.

You must take
responsibility for your failure.

Your majesty, if
you listen to me...

You let me down,
Lord Guy. Leave now.

Lord guy...

...is unable to take the
responsibility of his position.

He's just making up excuses.

And that's unacceptable.

This failure...

...should be punished.

You made great effort to
save Lord Guy from the gallows.

-Now you have such ideas about him...
-Your majesty.

Over time, you will see...

...the throne requires you...

...to take action according to
the facts changing continuously.

And the facts now...

Besides, Lord Guy's failure
offers you an opportunity.

A defeated commander can't
deserve the Princess of Jerusalem.

My Sultan, after Cairo,
we followed the crusaders.

We arrived just as count Balian was about to
capture Chatillon and take him to al-Quds.

Now it's up to you.

What's between you and
Chatillon, count Balian?

Why do you want to imprison him?

As you know, I was
slandered about doctor Latif.

To be able to
acquitted in Jerusalem,

...I need to make Chatillon confess the setup
he prepared with Lord Guy and Queen Maria.

For him to stand
trial and be punished.

Give him to me, please.

Above all, the m*rder was
an attack against the king.

My Sultan, that m*rder*r still has
the blood of our brothers on his hands.

How can we give him away?

I want to talk to
count Balian in private.

Balian is fine, right?
Did you hurt him?

Your lover, my Princess,
was lucky this time.

But if attempts to
confront me again...

Our marriage should
be solemnized in no time.

As our wedding is delayed,

...the king's life is in danger.

Sir.

The king wants to see you
and Princess Sibylla now.

I'm really sorry about
doctor Latif's death.

And I feel guilty.

I had to protect
him no matter what.

I always knew you weren't
involved in that incident.

But still, you shouldn't have
let those evil ones do that.

In fact, I struggled.

I was going to marry
Princess Sibylla.

Baldwin was going
to abdicate the throne.

You were going to be
the king of al-Quds, huh?

They put the blame
on William and me.

-If I take Chatillon...
-No way, Balian.

I will never give you the
m*rder*r who k*lled our martyrs.

Find another way
to acquit yourself.

-It isn't about only me but also the kingdom of...
-Those who have evil nature...

...perform evil actions.

The kingdom can't
run away from me.

I'm going to conquer
al-Quds sooner or later.

It's fate.

I don't know if that's
going to happen.

But as long as I'm alive, I'm
never giving up Jerusalem.

Halil.

Bring Sultan Ismail so
we can fulfill our longing.

As you order, my Sultan.

Open it.

Come on, move.

You also got caught,
huh, count of Kerek?

Because of a pawn
acting like a Queen.

Sultan Salahuddin checkmated
you both with his move.

Now behave and wait for the decision
the king [shah] Will give about you.

A fly is buzzing here.

You hear that?

Look at me, you evil-faced
red heathen. Shut up.

Or I will cut your throat.

Let's have a fight. So you
can show your strength.

My bey, stop.

I'll k*ll you with
my bare hands.

He's here, anyway.

We'll behead him
when it's time.

Leave him, my bey.
Come on.

My Sultan,
we keep Chatillon here.

Why did we release Balian?

I don't trust him.

Blonde snake.
Self-seeker. Sneaky.

He always sharpens
only his own sword.

We fought and risked our lives
to help him ascend the throne.

But he didn't avoid swinging
a sword against us in Ramla.

I know what side he takes.

I don't expect his
friendship, but...

...things in the other
side are complicated.

We need reasonable
people in al-Quds.

My Sultan.

We put Chatillon in the dungeon.

-We're waiting for your decision.
-Let him stay there for now.

My Sultan, the baby
isn't in the palace.

The wet nurse
isn't around either.

What do you mean?

Didn't the guards see them?

Who took the Sultan
in the daylight?

I don't know what
to say, my Sultan.

-Go search everywhere now!
-Wait.

Don't worry.

I took my nephew.

-You took him?
- I did.

Hearing about your death,
I didn't know what to do.

So I took my nephew out of the palace
instead of leaving him to Gumustegin's mercy.

Is there something
wrong, my bey?

There are sounds.

Take position!

Protect the carriage!

Karaca...
It's you, huh?

-Are you here to betray even more?
-Surrender Sultan Ismail.

Otherwise too much
blood will be shed, Albiz.

You have no blood
to be shed, dastards!

Attack!

How could you do that without
asking for my permission?

What should I have done?

I was worried that
Gumustegin might harm him.

I wanted to protect my
nephew. I'm his uncle!

You think I'm a stranger to him?

His life is precious
to all of us.

Well... you should have let
me know about your game then.

-What if you got caught?
-Well...

You don't know what
I went through here.

Yaruki was slaughtered.
Dervish was slaughtered.

He was planning evil things every
day. And then I heard about your death.

What should I have
done, Salahuddin?

Oh Karategin...

Inshaallah, he
won't get into trouble.

No. Not at all. Don't
think of bad things.

If you don't call for the trouble,
it won't appear. Don't worry.

Well... Gumustegin
is in the dungeon.

Besides, Albiz is
protecting my nephew.

He's going to give
him to my sister.

The safest place for my nephew
is where his mother is, right?

You're still
defending your action.

-What you did is clearly disobedience!
-Well...

Disobedience, huh?

Trying to take measures,
I became rebellious?

Fine.

From now on,

...don't give me any duties.

That's it.

Leave me!

Don't you harm them!

-Leave me!
-Or I will cut off your arm!

Red demon.

Don't let me lose
my mind, my Allah.

I don't know how they could work
together! I'm really speechless.

I won't give him.

Don't worry. I won't harm him.

Give him to me.

You can't get everything
you want, Salahuddin.

You taught me this.

Here.

You get in the carriage.

I said get in!

You can't take him!
Don't touch him!

Don't... don't you
touch Sultan Ismail.

Otherwise my bey
will burn down Kerek.

Don't worry.

The baby is safe.

-If Salahuddin accepts my terms, of course.
-What do you want?

Why the baby?

Countess, we got a message
from Emir Gumustegin.

Gumustegin?

Give me.

Get ready. We are setting out.

Take this.

Take it to Salahuddin.

The faster you take this,
the better for the baby.

Let him go.

Let him go to Damascus and
convey my offer to Salahuddin.

What am I going to
say to my bey now?

Lord guy.

As a result of the failure of the w*r
waged for the conquest of Cairo...

...you have been dismissed from your
position of commanding the Jerusalem armies.

-Your majesty...
-Do not interrupt me.

Queen Maria.

You are now assigned
as my chief advisor.

I will try to be worthy
of your trust, my king.

There is another issue.

I decided to reject your
request to marry Princess Sbylla.

I believe this decision will be
more beneficial for Jerusalem.

Your majesty.

As you know...

Princess Sbylla wants
to marry me as well.

Princess...

...if you insist on marrying Lord Guy, this will
mean ignoring the decision of the king of Jerusalem.

Your majesty...

As you deem appropriate.

Use the ink
sparingly, Qadi Fazil.

We have many
more victories to write.

What happened Boru?

Did you come here
with good news?

My Allah blessed us
and let us gain victory.

Dastard Gumustegin was exposed.

My brother...

...now sits on the
throne he deserves...

...as the regent
of Sultan Ismail.

The prayers for these days were
made long ago, Boru. Thanks to Allah.

Our efforts were not wasted.

A letter was sent to the Abbasi caliph to
send the robe that confirms the regency.

Soon, we will receive
the good news inshaallah.

Come on.

My brother wants everyone in
the palace to come to Damascus.

I am looking forward to see our
Sultan on the throne in Damascus.

The pope is very pleased with the
duty you have fulfilled in Jerusalem.

Hearing this makes me proud.

The reason I
came here is that...

...you are going to
marry Princess Sbylla.

The pope really cares
about this marriage.

This marriage will be a big step towards the
realization of Rome's ambitions over Jerusalem.

I am sorry to say that but...

Unfortunately, this
marriage will not take place.

What are you saying, Lord Guy?

Unfortunately.

-King Baldwin does not let me marry Princess Sbylla.
-This is unacceptable.

Do your best and find a
solution to this problem.

But king Baldwin...

The pope is asking for
Jerusalem from you, not excuses.

If king Baldwin is the only
obstacle on the way to Jerusalem...

...you will get rid of him.

Read this part
again, my daughter.

Can I come in??

Come in.

Boru!

My son...

My son!

The bad situation in Damascus
is how better inshaallah.

You came with good news,
right?

Good news...

My brother dethroned the traitor
Gumustegin and took the throne.

My Allah, thanks to you!

Thanks to Allah!

My Allah...

My Allah protected our
state from greedy hands.

My lion sons...

You did not waste the
efforts of our late Sultan.

Mother, you must've prayed a lot... our Allah opened
the gates of Damascus for us to return to your homeland.

Crazy boy...

Are we going to live
in Damascus now?

Yes, Semse Sultan.

So you have to get ready as soon as possible.
My brother is waiting for you.

Thanks to Allah...

Lord guy.

His majesty clearly stated that
he does not want this marriage.

Your insistence is meaningless.

I did not come here to insist.
-Right.

You did not come here to insist.

You came here to threaten me.

With Balian and Baldwin, right?

But you should understand...

...I won't bow down
to your threats.

It's over now, Princess.

Sometimes, we
have to accept defeat.

I was defeated.

I will no longer upset you by
pursuing an impossible desire.

Do you...

...really mean that?

I decided to leave Jerusalem.

For everything I have
made you experience...

...forgive me, Princess.

How long are you
going to keep me here?

We achieved our goal.

Now you are free.

What did you achieve?

The fitna in Damascus is ended.

Sayra...

...I did not let anyone
know about what you did.

Give up and...

Let's end the enmity between us.

But if you keep...

...holding a grudge...

Then what?

Will you k*ll me?

I will do what you
couldn't do if you force me.

Then let me give
you a secret, Boru.

If your sword is going
to cut my head off...

...you must first k*ll me here.

Or else, one cannot do it.

Stop being stubborn,
desert flower.

Do not be stubborn.

Come to Damascus.

Let's start over again.

Let's go back to the beginning.

As if we never met.

As if we never talked.

Maybe then...

Do you really believe
this can happen, Boru?

Do you think all the traces of
what happened will disappear?

Our fate...

I pray every moment so the fate can
erase everything and write only you.

So either accept it...

...or stay silent, Sayra.

For a moment, Boru...

If I believe for even a moment
that this could happen...

...I won't hesitate
for a second.

I will come to you.

I will wait patiently for
that moment to come.

I wish I died instead of coming back to this
rat hole. I can't stand it. I feel trapped here.

And it's all because
of your failure!

You came to Jerusalem
and convinced us all!

You put us all in danger
before you secured your throne.

Stop blaming me,
count Chatillion. Did I...

...let Balian capture you?

I see you became
enemies so quickly.

Fortunately, this
fight won't last long.

I won't give up
easily, Salahuddin.

All the evidence you made
up will eventually be disproven.

I will take back the
throne you took with tricks.

But you won't
have time for that.

Qadi Efendi wrote
the execution order.

Don't try to hurry up
and cover up your crime.

I am doing this quickly because I want your book
to be closed as soon as possible on the other side.

You will quickly be punished
for the lives you've taken.

Everyone in Damascus will talk about
how you oppressed a Muslim Emir.

I don't make the decision.

But I never sensed any
Muhammedi scent in you, Gumustegin.

Say goodbye to your friend.

You will be ex*cuted today.

Our Sultan is right, Karategin.

-Instead of asking for forgiveness,
you still insist. -He is right.

Your intention might be
good, but your way is wrong.

What are you talking about?

It's not your heart in
flames, sure! Speak!

Look at them... look...

It was my nephew who would
be wasted in this throne fight!

If you are bound by blood, we
are also bound by life, Karategin.

We are all here to protect
the Sultan's command.

Speak! Let no one remain
silent! Everyone, speak!

Look at them! My head hurts!

I didn't come here to listen to you. Cut that
man's head off, so you and I can all find peace.

Finally, the execution
day has come huh?

May it be
Chatillion's turn soon.

-Aameen.
-Inshaallah.

Qadi Fazil...

Welcome to Damascus.

Thank you.

The Sultan is waiting for you.

Brother.

Today, the grief in your
heart will be relieved a little bit.

A cruel man will be wiped out.

Our valuable sl*ve
keeps rising, Maes.

The throne of Egypt
was just a beginning.

The ways things are going, Salahuddin will
be the most powerful ruler in the east.

And we will keep following
him for just a pouch of gold.

Instead of being amused by god's
might, you focus on your own interest.

I can do both at the same time.

What do you think, sir?

-The best thing for us is to stay in Damascus?
-Yes.

Wherever Sultan is,
the trades goes on there.

We should grab
the cauldron early,

...so our cups won't be empty.

You can't get away with
this cruelty, Salahuddin.

Atsiz.

Read Qadi's decision.

So everybody will hear
that who the cruel is.

There is solid evidence...

...that Emir Gumustegin is the
k*ller of Emir Yaruki and Omer Mel la.

Besides, there
are testimonies...

...that he committed crimes against Emir
Muzafferiddun GokBoru and Bahaddin Karakus.

According to the Islam law,

...it's decided that he'll be dismissed from
the emirship and will be beheaded to death.

Put his head on the log.

If you have at least a little courage
left, you hit the sword, Salahuddin!

Don't leave it to
the executioner!

This sword won't be hit by me...

...but Emir GokBoru whose
life and freedom you stole.

For all the innocent
people you got k*lled.

My Sultan! My Sultan!

My Sultan! My Sultan...

My Sultan, we need help.

Don't tell me you
lost Sultan Ismail.

What happened, Albiz?

I wish I the ground
would swallow me now.

Tell me, Albiz. What happened?

I can't look at you in the
face anymore, my bey.

They abducted Sultan Ismail.

I want to have a walk
outside the palace.

Together. Like old times.

Alright. Why not?

My father would accompany
us during our walks. Remember?

-And his horse Rosalinka.
-Yes.

He would only
listen to father, right?

We can take him with us.

-But he's a bad tempered horse.
-Soldiers!

Princess and I are going to
have a tour. Prepare Rosalinka.

Yes, my king.

Lord guy.

You're defeated and
going back home, huh?

Well... Albiz!

What do you mean
they abducted him?

-Who did it, Albiz?
-Gumustegin's man. Karaca.

We were outnumbered
so we couldn't resist.

Did Karaca take him?

It seems they were
working with Countess Mila.

They gave the baby and
his wet nurse to Countess.

-Mila...
-Well!

Did Rayiha hatun betray us?

She sent this to you, my Sultan.

From Countess of Kerek
castle to Sultan Salahuddin.

With the courage of sitting
on the throne of Damascus,

...don't dare to think you can capture Kerek
that you have been setting your eyes on.

I have Sultan Ismail.

If you want him to be safe,

...give Emir
Gumustegin to me alive.

Otherwise you will be responsible
for what happens to the baby.

As to Chatillon
who is your prisoner,

...you're free to
do anything to him.

If you execute him
instead of Gumustegin,

...that will be a
great favor for me.

Here! Read!

What does she say?

We only helped that woman!

Why is she betraying us?

She was waiting for an
opportunity to spread her poison!

And you put milk
in front of the snake!

She wants Gumustegin in
return for Sultan Ismail's life.

The weather is so
nice. Shall we walk?

Alright.

I miss old times
so much, sister.

Being the king requires you
to pay some prices, Baldwin.

Yes, but I don't want you
to pay the price as well.

Thank you for supporting me about
my decision about Lord Guy, sister.

It had to be done.

But there is another matter.

The future of
William and Balian.

Although all the
evidence points to them,

-I can't be convinced they k*lled Latif.
-Yes.

That's right, Baldwin.

Believe me, they are innocent.

I'll take care of it when
I go back to the palace.

You will... you
will be a great king.

Great and sick king.

I'll always be there for you.

Bring Rosalinka!

Baldwin, I don't think
this is a good idea.

Don't worry.

My father used to
calm him down like this.

Good boy, good boy.

Calm down, boy. Calm down.

Let's have some run, Rosalinka.

Follow the king!

What are you waiting for?
Behead me!

What now, brother? Will we
give this dastard to Countess?

Lower your sword.

We're stopping the execution.

Lower your sword.

Will we just release
this betrayer, my Sultan?

I promise you, GokBoru.

There will be a day when
you hit the sword on his neck.

But if Sultan
Nureddin's son is k*lled,

...we can't make up for it.

Lower the sword.

GokBoru, don't.

Obey Sultan's order
and lower your sword.

Come on.

The setup you prepared with
slanders has failed you, Salahuddin!

-Take this madman away!
-Shut up!

GokBoru, this is an
order. Lower your sword.

Lower it.

Don't!

Each time, I'll cut
another piece of yours!

Forgive me, my Sultan.

I wanted to leave a Mark on him
to remind the sins he committed.

And there will be a Mark for
you for disobeying the orders,

...GokBoru.

Take this betrayer away.

Oh Baldwin...

How could I let you
go oh your own?

Rosalinka?

-Where is Baldwin?
-My Princess, we followed the king as you ordered.

-Then?
-The king got faster and disappeared.

-And then...
-Fools!

Go into the woods now!

Nobody will leave this forest
before we find king Baldwin!

Of course.

I said now!

Obviously, Countess Mila
isn't acting with her mind...

...but her feelings, my Sultan.

There can't be another explanation for standing
against both Chatillon and us at the same time.

She's trying to damage my regency
by keeping both Sultan and Gumustegin.

We shouldn't bow to
her threats, brother.

She can never dare
to k*ll Sultan Ismail.

We can't be sure
about this, Boru.

If she's ignored, she
may get more furious.

In this case, what is
your decision, my Sultan?

We'll release Gumustegin.

We're expecting a rule warrant from caliph.
This decision will damage our reputation.

So will leaving Sultan Ismail
in the castle of crusaders.

We have no other options.

Where is Karategin?

In Kerek.

What's your plan, my Sultan?

Well...

Look at Rayitha hatun.

What are you...

You escaped from Kerek
and took refuge in Cairo.

Didn't we save
you from Chatillon...

...when you told Salahuddin
they took your castle?

Now you are standing against us.

There is no point in raking
over the past, Karategin.

I won't tolerate you like I
tolerated you in that shop.

For your information.

What do you want?

Why are you here?

I didn't come to see you.

I came to see my nephew.

Salahuddin sent
you here, didn't he?

Well... you want to
know everything about me.

I expressed my
intention clearly.

I came to see my nephew.

I need to see if he
is alive. I'm his uncle!

-My bey.
-Well... Hacer hatun.

My Melik... don't be afraid.

I'm here for you now.

They are both well.

You've seen for yourself.

Now go and tell Salahuddin
to send Gumustegin here.

Well, Countess...

You don't get it.

I came here to stay here.

He's my nephew.

Salahuddin will do
whatever is necessary.

And I'm doing whatever is
necessary for my nephew.

I'm staying here.

Wherever my
nephew is, I'm there!

If you imprison him,
you have to imprison me.

-How dare you?
-I'm Boru.

In the tribe of Boru, a true man would
never leave his nephew in foreign hands!

Wherever my nephew and
his wet nurse Hacer hatun are,

...I'm there.

According to the news
that came from Jerusalem,

...king Baldwin dismissed
Lord Guy from commanding.

There's even more.

The king declared that he would
never let Lord Guy marry the Princess.

That's great news, William.

But it doesn't matter as long
as we can't acquit ourselves.

If we hadn't lost Chatillon...

Expressing regret
won't help, Balian.

Now we have to
think about what to do.

You're right.

I'll go to Kerek to see Countess
Mila as soon as possible.

She may know something useful
about what happened recently.

You were right, Queen.

It's time for me to say
goodbye to Jerusalem.

Accepting defeat is
also a virtue, Lord Guy.

Jerusalem is too big
for your small hands.

It's good that you've finally
understood this even if late.

King Baldwin!

-Princess, what happened to you??
-He's no where to be found.

We've been looking for
hours, but there's no trace.

Get me out of here
immediately! I said get me out!

Don't you hear me? Get
me out! Get me out now!

King Baldwin iv.

Don't bother yourself.

Who are you?
Where is this place?

You should drink your
soup before it gets cold.

Whose man are you?
Who abducted me?

All these questions
are meaningless.

There is only one question
you need to ask, sir.

How will I get out of here?

I command you to come
back! Get me out of here!

Don't you hear me??
Get me out! Come back!

Get me out of here!

Get me out!

God, I can't stay here.

I can't...

It's time, Gumustegin.

After being exposed to the
people, you will be given to Kerek.

What are you saying, Salahuddin?

Did Mila want Gumustegin?
-This is her only request.

Sultan Ismail's
life in return for...

Gumustegin.

Hasn't she written
anything for me?

She wrote that you have no value
in her eyes and that she would be...

...pleased if I k*lled you.
-You are lying!

This is the truth.

You are not wanted in Kerek.

-You are lying!
-Don't...

Don't ever dare do this again.

Facing the truth is
difficult, Chatillion.

Don't be happy looking at Gumustegin
thinking he's standing strong.

His pain is less than yours.

When you had the chance, you
should have k*lled me, Salahuddin.

You're already dead.

Someone who is despised in his
own castle has no value in my eyes.

I will decide your fate later.

Take Gumustegin out.

Come on.

I will come back, Salahuddin.

I will not die before making you experience
everything you made me go through.

This is the humiliation
in this world.

You will go through
this in afterlife as well.

Even the hand that was cut by
GokBoru will testify against you there.

Your turn will come too.

Ah Mila...

I swear to god I will feed your
dead body to the dogs of Kerek.

Why did you call us here?

How are you? Are
you comfortable here?

If the baby needs anything,
don't hesitate, let me know.

What you are doing is just evil.

But...

...when I look at you, you don't seem like
someone who would do such evil things.

Don't worry.

Neither the baby...

...nor you will ever get hurt.

-Count Balian of Ibelin is here, Countess.
He wants to see you. -Let him in.

You leave now.

Who are these, Countess?

The real owner of the Zengi state.
Sultan Ismail, the son of Nureddin Zengi.

Countess, what have you done?

How dare you do
something like this?

To save Chatillion?

You were the one who saved him
when I was about to k*ll him in Kerek.

Did you fall in love with the
man you were forced to marry?

Balian.

I don't care about Chatillion.

That baby is Kerek's guarantee.

Sultan Salahuddin's
target is Kerek now.

As long as I act with Emir
Gumustegin and keep this baby...

...Kerek will be safe.

It's wrong to involve such a small
innocent baby in this, Countess.

Countess, it's from Damascus.
From Sultan Salahuddin.

Salahuddin.

He said he released Gumustegin,
but would make me pay heavily for that.

You're playing
with fire, Countess.

Someone who is filled with flames
does not fear burning, count Balian.

You wrote that you could
help me save count Chatillion.

Would you really do that?

As long as you pay me, every good
and information I have is for sale.

Master Elyasa does what he says.

Good then.

If you help, you'll
get your payment.

Be ready at sunrise, Henok.

Still no news from his majesty.

I can't understand any of these!

I propose to personally
lead the search efforts.

I'd like to remind you that you are
no longer a commander, Lord Guy.

We should put our
personal matters aside.

It's about his majesty's life.

Princess Sbylla.

It will be difficult to maintain discipline
among the soldiers while his majesty is missing.

Besides, this state of being leaderless
could trigger a potential rebellion.

Lord guy...

...do whatever you can
to find Baldwin please.

I will do my best, Princess.

I will retreat to my room now.

Lord guy...

...isn't it strange that his
majesty suddenly disappeared?

Right after he
rejected your marriage?

What are you implying?

I'm not implying anything.

I'm just talking about the
strangeness of the situation.

I was here with you when
his majesty disappeared.

I had also decided
to return to Europe.

I know what you're thinking.

But you should know this.

I am not mad enough to
hurt the king of Jerusalem.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I must
find his majesty as soon as possible.

Ell...

We must go to
Ibelin immediately.

But no one will know about this.

As you order, my Queen.

Mila's anger has
gone too far now.

She has such
an evil soul that...

...she won't hesitate to
abduct even an innocent baby.

Do not worry, Semse.

I have a plan of course.

I won't leave our late
Sultan's child to her.

You cannot underestimate
Mila's anger, Salahuddin.

Because she is a rejected woman.

She does all these things
because of her feelings for you.

She told me what she wanted
to say, and she got her answer.

Now she will pay the
price for what she has done.

You don't understand,
Salahuddin.

When she received
the news of your death...

...this woman came to
Cairo and cried by your grave.

-Did Mila come to my grave?
-She was shameless enough to do that.

Besides...

Besides what?

She still loves you, Salahuddin.

That's what scares me.

Because a woman
who hasn't received a...

...response to her love and
who has been openly rejected...

...can be very, very dangerous.

Countess, Emir
Gumustegin is here.

Finally. Salahuddin
realized how serious I was.

Don't keep him
waiting. Let him in.

Welcome to Kerek,
Emir Gumustegin.

Thank you Countess.

I am grateful for the
mercy you have shown me...

...and for the support
you've given to Sultan Ismail...

...who I represent
as his regent.

You can be sure that
I will pay you back.

Your hand...

It's not important.

We will take our revenge...

...from Salahuddin together.

There's no doubt about that.

We must carefully plan every step
we take to achieve our common goal.

Of course, there are
things I will ask you.

I am at your service.

Now, go and rest.

The castle doctor will
take care of your injury.

When you feel better...

...you can tell me
how you convinced...

...the templar knights in
the Beytul Ahzan castle to...

...help your helper.

There's chaos in
Jerusalem again, Balian.

Why are you worried?
What happened William?

King Baldwin disappeared
while riding his horse.

Despite searching for him
everywhere, no trace has been found.

There's something
else going on here.

Do you think Lord Guy did this?

I can't say he wouldn't.

But we need to find
out who's behind this.

How can we do that while
sitting here with our hands tied?

The way to protect the king
is by proving our innocence.

The moment we enter Jerusalem,
we'll be thrown in the dungeon.

It's hard to accept. But we
need Salahuddin's help for this.

We don't have time to wait.

The king's life is in danger.

He might be dead already.

My count, Queen Maria is here.
She is waiting for you to accept her.

What is Maria doing in Ibelin?

You'll enter the palace
through the kitchen supply gate.

The door at the end of the corridor opens
to the stairs leading down to the dungeon.

How many guards are there?

There are at least two
people at every door.

I was going to suggest using an arrow
instead of a sword to enter quietly...

...but you've already
thought of that.

If you're playing a game...
-Relax.

I'll be waiting for you here.

I won't go anywhere until I get the
rest of my money. Have I ever done that?

You wait with them. -Alright.

Although there is
no evidence yet...

...I'm sure Lord Guy
abducted king Baldwin.

It's not hard to guess that. You
didn't come here just to say this, right?

You need Baldwin
as much as I need him.

Otherwise, there will be no
obstacle left for guy to take the throne.

You speak as if you were not the
one who united with Lord Guy and...

...took us to the
gallows, Queen Maria...

And you did that by accusing
us of a crime we didn't commit.

I don't think this is the right
time to talk about past incidents.

Our enemy...

...and our solution
are the same.

You have to find Baldwin
as soon as possible.

Why don't you do it?

Lord guy found a way and succeeded
to take charge of the searching units.

And his men are watching me.

I can't act freely.

It's clear that you want to find
Baldwin to protect your own interests.

And that you are
looking for new allies...

But don't forget that...

...when his majesty is found...

...your interests that you are
trying to protect might be destroyed.

There's someone.

The dungeon door! Move!

-Come on, warriors!
-Attack!

sh**t him.

We took down
Salahuddin's best Archer.

Two birds with one stone.

Let's get inside the dungeon!

How is Chatillon doing?

When I left, he was
lonely and miserable.

I think Salahuddin wouldn't
let him live after your letter.

I hope he will do me that favor.

When I hear about his death,

...I'll have got rid of all the
thorns pricking into my soul.

Chatillon was a bad
luck for you, Countess.

You have to think
about the future now.

You're pulling the strings now.

So you will need a smarter
and reliable count in Kerek.

What do you mean?

Pardon my dare, Countess.

I mean you need a marriage to
make your hand stronger politically.

And I'd like to say that
I'm ready for this duty.

Countess of Kerek would
marry a non-Muslim, huh?

A non-Muslim who gets
along well with templars.

If you don't make a choice,

...the kingdom will send you
someone as the count of Kerek.

If Chatillon dies and our
collaboration bears such an obligation,

...I ..Will consider this then.

It's too soon to discuss this.

Whatever you wish, Countess.

I just want to make
Salahuddin pay for what he did.

Oh Mila...

I will make you pay for this.

-My count.
-Henok.

Hurry up. We'll
get you out of here.

-How did you get in here?
-With tradesman Elyasa's help.

My god, I knew you
wouldn't forget about me.

Come on, open it.

Henok, you are a
true hero. Let's go.

My Sultan, after we k*ll red heathen
Chatillon and betrayer Gumustegin,

...we should k*ll guy too.

We will, Atsiz.
We'll k*ll all of them.

But our priority is
Sultan Ismail's welfare.

Inshaallah, the first step of our
plan was achieved, my Sultan.

My Sultan.

-What's the news?
-Everything is as you wanted, mighty Sultan.

Will we really help count
Chatillon escape, sir?

-If Sultan Salahuddin hears about this...
-Calm down, Maes.

We're doing this for Salahuddin.

The life has taught me this.

The one on god's
side always wins.

And Sultan Salahuddin
is on god's side.

Time to wake up!

Henok took Chatillon away.

-They didn't suspect, did they?
-Not for a moment.

Chatillon seemed very happy.

Let's go.

The first step of your plan
worked successfully, mighty Sultan.

-Thanks to Allah.
-My Sultan.

What if Chatillon doesn't
go to Kerek as you predicted?

He will, Fazil.

He will.

Even without knowing,

...he will stall Mila
and Gumustegin for us.

Boru, GokBoru,
Karategin and Karakus...

...will take Melik
Ismail out of the castle.

And we'll be waiting
for them near Kerek.

I'll start the preparations with
your permission, my Sultan.

My Sultan.

Count Balian wants to talk to
you. William is with him this time.

Let them in.

My Sultan.

Count Balian is
insistent about Chatillon.

He's not wrong, Fazil.

Well, Hacer hatun...

Don't look so upset.
Don't worry. I'm here.

Our captivity won't last long.

I'm worried about
our Sultan, my bey.

-Who cares about my life?
-Well...

What do you mean?

You are precious too.

I mean, you're
precious to all of us.

I mean, as precious as a stone.

I mean, like a crown Jewel.

You are valuable too.

You are so valuable...

...that nobody else would take
care of my nephew without you.

They say you are crazy,
but you are a good man.

-Am I good? Is that so?
-Of course.

Have a good chat.

We were having a
good chat until you came.

You spoiled it, shiny Tegin.

You came to check your
nephew to see if he is fine.

He's safe as long as I'm here.

-But you...
-Your hand was the price of messing up with my nephew.

But don't worry. Your
head will be the next.

It's alright.

You and I need
to settle accounts.

It's alright. It's alright.

Well...

King Baldwin, may god
protect him, may be even dead.

If he is alive, we need
your help to find him.

Chatillon knows all
of Lord Guy's secrets.

If we make him speak,

...the way back to Jerusalem
will be opened for both of us.

And we can do
something for king Baldwin.

I understand that.

But that's impossible.

Because Chatillon
escaped from the dungeon.

I hope you don't
expect us to believe that.

Nobody can escape from the dungeon
of this palace without your consent.

Thanks for the praise. But
that's what happened, Balian.

What do you say, Fazil?

Can we do something
for king Baldwin?

My Sultan, we can
tell rovers in al-Quds...

...and even touring tradesmen
in Egypt to take action.

They know everything, you know.

If we find a lead, we
will inform you in no time.

That's a good idea.

Thus, Balian may...

...help us get Sultan
Ismail out of Kerek.

Sure, I will. But...

How?

If you remember,

...Countess Mila showed you
the secret passage in Kerek...

...and you showed it to
deceased Emir Yaruki.

It's the same duty.

Like you took Emir
Yaruki inside the castle,

...you will take Boru
and his soldiers inside.

And who knows...

Chatillon may be there too.

Realizing you escaped from the
dungeon, Salahuddin will send men after us.

We have to disappear
without a trace.

Sir.

If we take refuge
in Jerusalem...

Not Jerusalem, not
anywhere else, Henok.

We're going to Kerek.

Countess has to
pay for her betrayal.

But I need a lot
of soldiers for that.

The soldiers loyal to you in Kerek
were kicked out of the castle by Countess.

-If we reach Kerek...
-Good.

Good.

I'll take them with us and burn
down the castle over Countess!

My god.

Spare Baldwin's life.

Forgive me for
failing to protect him.

God heard you, Princess.

Has Baldwin been found?

I'll take you to Baldwin.

As soon as we take Sultan Ismail, we
should leave the castle without fighting.

Gumustegin is in there.

If I find a chance to get
him, I won't avoid fighting.

GokBoru.

You heard Sultan.

Ruining the plan would
have a heavy price.

There will be a time for
vengeance. Don't worry.

Baybora, is there
something wrong?

I have a message
from our Sultan.

There is an easier
way into Kerek.

-Count Balian will help you get inside Kerek.
-Balian?

-Will we get into a bottomless pit
with a heathen's help? -Don't worry.

If Balian doesn't keep his promise,
we'll go back to the first plan.

Your majesty, get prepared.

Am I getting out?

I have to cover your eyes.

Why are you covering my eyes?

Where is the man who
brought soup to me??

I was the one who brought
soup to you, your majesty.

You should drink your
soup before it's cold.

Where am I?

Lord guy!

Why did you cover my eyes?

-Where is my brother?
-Calm down, Princess.

You'll get all the answers.

What's going on?
Why did we stop?

I'll uncover your
eyes now, Princess.

Don't you raise your voice.

-Baldwin.
-Don't, Princess.

Why are you taking me now?

If you make a tiny mistake,
you'll cause the king to die.

I believed you.

I thought you'd really give up.

Your being so naive both
excites and upsets me, Princess.

How could you think I
would give up Jerusalem?

-Why are you keeping my brother here?
-Isn't the answer obvious?

I want you and Jerusalem.

And for that, I
need to marry you.

And Baldwin?

What about him?

The future of our poor
king is between your lips.

If you give me Jerusalem,
Baldwin will live.

But nobody will know he's alive.

He'll stay here for a lifetime.

If you become a good wife to me,

...you can sometimes see him
from a distance and know he's alive.

Otherwise...

My Sultan, your plan is both
surprising and praiseworthy.

You got all their tails mingled
even without touching them.

-May Allah not let us fail, Fazil.
-Aameen.

When we get back
the little Sultan alive,

...we will need to
cut off those tails.

My Sultan.

We're ready to move to Kerek.

Are you punishing
yourself by starving?

How did you get in here?

A true king would prefer
punishing his enemies not himself.

What do you want from me?

If you insist on starving, you will
have no chances to get out of here.

Isn't your duty keeping me here?

Just the opposite.

It's teaching you
how to get out of here.

When you see the
hidden behind the mask,

...you will see your own truth.

What truth? I don't get it.

You are king Baldwin.

You're the only king of Jerusalem
who can beat Salahuddin.

Me? Beat Salahuddin?

Your illness will become
more visible after some time.

These terrible wounds will
invade your smooth skin.

The wounds you fear can
become your strength and power.

Be a true king.

And punish your
enemies, not yourself.

You can start by
eating your meal.

Atsiz. Go near the
castle with the other beys.

When they start a fight, you will
meet our men at the exit of the passage.

As you order, my Sultan.

Remember, our priority
is Sultan Ismail's health.

Uncle bey.

Chatillion is marching
to Kerek with his soldiers.

There are many of them. He had
many men waiting for his return.

This is good for us,
nephews. It is good for us.

Let the infidels k*ll each other so
we can take Sultan Ismail more easily.

If something happens to him...

The late Sultan's trust will
not get hurt. Don't worry.

My bey is in there though.

Get ready, valiants. It is
time to make our move.

May Allah help us. -Aameen.

Princess.

I was worried about you.

You left the palace
without telling anyone.

Your face is so pale.

Princess.

Did something happen?

I couldn't protect him.
I couldn't protect him.

Neither from you...

...nor from Lord Guy.

And now he...

I made a decision.

Hear it from me.

I will marry Lord Guy.

Why are you so angry
at Salahuddin, Countess?

He is my husband's k*ller.

And...

...since he became the vizier of
Egypt, he has had his eyes on my castle.

It looks like this is
not the only reason.

My spies in Cairo
told me that...

...as soon as you heard of Salahuddin's
death, you went to Cairo immediately.

Ma'am, count Chatillion is in
front of the castle with his soldiers.

Chatillion!

So he wants to die!

How could he escape
from Salahuddin?

Since he came here,
Kerek will be his grave.

The news says that a chaos
is about to take part in Kerek.

If only we could
hear from Baldwin.

Who knows how Sbylla
is feeling right now...

My count, merchant
Elyasa and Maes are here.

Let them in!

Count Balian...

Have you found any
information about Baldwin??

I really didn't know that
Sultan Salahuddin had...

...such an efficient intelligence
service in Jerusalem.

Cut it short, merchant Elyasa.

King Baldwin was last seen near
the monastery in the south of the city.

And the men who
kidnapped his majesty...

...were Lord Guy's men.

So he is blinded
by his ambitions!

We must do something
immediately, William.

I will go to Kerek for Chatillion. You
will go with Marcus to search for Baldwin.

Open the door!

Renaud de Chatillon.

You want to die so badly, right?

Why else would you return?

I came back to my castle, Mila.

To remind you that I am
your husband and your count.

This is my castle.

And you do not
belong here anymore.

Our marriage will also end soon.

Kerek will have a
new count soon.

Henok, did you hear that?

So you decided to punish
your enemies, not yourself.

I was waiting for you.

I thought a lot
about what you said.

I am sick.

And you are telling me that I can
be a king who can defeat Salahuddin.

How is this possible?

You have two paths
before you, your majesty.

Either you will see your
illness and your wounds...

...that will eat away your skin
as a curse like everyone else.

Or you will understand that...

...what you think is a
curse is your salvation.

If you succeed in this, you will
return to your throne as a true king.

When you have a knight
like me before you, Mila...

...it is very sad that you trust that
miserable man who cannot even hold a sword.

My hand that holds the
sword is still strong, Chatillion.

I am not foolish enough to be
provoked by you and get mad. Unlike you.

Soldier!

Show this handless rat and that
miserable widow next to him...

...who the real
owner of Kerek is!

Attack!

Stay behind me, Countess!

I will not hide!

I will fight for my castle!

Our plan is working!

Yes...

Yes, Hacer hatun! Get ready!

Get ready!

The castle turned
into a witch's cauldron!

Get ready, hurry! Get ready!

What about the
guards at the door?

How will we escape
while they are here?

Don't worry. When our men
arrive, we will take care of them.

But how will they
enter the castle?

Salahuddin must've made a
plan like a poem. Don't worry.

Come on, come on.

Where is this count of Ibelin?

He is here.

Follow me, I will take
you to the secret passage.

Alright, alright, don't cry.

It is forbidden to
go out, stay inside.

They are still there.

Don't cry, don't cry, alright.

Don't cry.

Where are they?

Help!

Come on, hurry.

Are you sure Boru?

Can we trust this man?

Don't worry.

I don't think you
have another chance.

Come on.

I will rain gold on the one who
brings me the Countess's head!

They are keeping the baby in one
of the rooms. The rest is your duty.

Thank you.

Tell your brother
I kept my promise.

You will use the same way on the way back.
-Eyvallah.

So, some infidels can be brave.

Come on, come on.

Well...

They are gone.

Come on.

My bey, be careful!

Don't worry hatun!
I was given the kut!

My bey, are you alright?

You see, right?

I cannot be defeated
by a single sword!

Come on! Come on!

Where have you been...

-That's the best we could do...
-Are you alright, my bey?

Alright? Don't you see?!

I am alright, of course!

Why wouldn't I be alright?
I am alright! Am I a man...

...who can be
defeated by a sword?

Hacer hatun are you alright?
-I am alright, my bey. Thanks to you.

Come on. Let's get out.

Let's protect the Sultan.

The man pierced my intestine.
And you are asking if I am alright!

Henok, don't stop!

You are at the end
of the road, Countess!

You will kneel
before your count!

Never!

You will never take Kerek
without k*lling me first!

Gladly!

Come on! Hurry up!

-Who am I seeing here?
-Well well...

We are here. Can't
you see?! Move now!

What are you called? A deer or a
gazelle... I will break your antlers now!

Karategin, take the Sultan out.

Al, Turab, protect the Sultan!
-Hacer, come!

Come!

Come on brothers, like old days!

This is the place
Elyasa mentioned.

It's chained...
How will we get in?

We will show you the way.

Turab, push. Come
on, push. Push slowly.

Are you pushing a horse?

Am I helping you, or
are you helping me?

Karategin.

You have taken
Sultan Ismail safely.

Yes.

Where are Boru and his brothers?

-They are in the passage.
-They will come out, evelallah.

Let's go to our Sultan now.

Are you alright, Karategin?

He is injured, he
needs a doctor.

Come on, come on.

The dastard ran off.

We can take care of him later.
We have to get out of here quickly.

-Otherwise, there will be too many on us.
-Boru.

Forgive me, brother.

If I get out of here without k*lling
Gumustegin, I can't carry this name anymore.

I have to do this.

We have no time.

I have to help my Emir
about his vengeance.

We should go take him down.

We can't disobey Sultan's
orders. Don't be crazy.

We have to get out.

No news from beys and Boru.

The longer we wait,
the uneasier I feel.

-Don't worry, my Sultan.
-I have to think about every possibility.

Keep the guards unit ready.

If we don't get
news in short time,

...we will move.

As you order, my Sultan.

Countess Mila.

For safety, you have
to get inside the castle.

If something happens to
you, all the plan will fail!

So be it, Emir Gumustegin.

I'm going back to the castle.

-What's the matter, Karaca?
-Salahuddin's men took the baby.

Damn it!

There is only one
way out of the castle.

You come with me

Where are you, Chatillon?

My Sultan.

Thanks to Allah,
you are back alive.

The baby is fine,
my Sultan. But...

I didn't leave my nephew
to them, Salahuddin.

Take care of Karategin's
wound immediately.

Come.

Where is Boru?

While getting outside through the
passage, Karaca attacked, my Sultan.

They stalled them so
we managed to run away.

Atsiz, Bozok. You
protect Sultan Ismail.

Take care of Hacer hatun.

Baybora, Ibrahim.
You come with me.

Uncle Sultan, we
should go with you.

You can't run away, Mila.

You have to face my hatred!

-Shall we go inside and check, my Sultan?
-We'll wait for some time.

If they come out, we will go.

Countess!

I won't k*ll you before seeing
you kneel before me, Countess!

It always works.

Uncle Sultan.

Go.

There are sounds, uncle Sultan.

Boru.

-Are you alright?
-We're fine.

Why are you so late?

We had to settle something.

-Let's get away from Kerek quickly.
-Let's go.

-You can't run away from me, Countess.
-Soldiers, attack!

You and I could have
been a great couple, Mila.

But you insulted me
at every opportunity.

I tried to husband you.

But you always despised me.

You were never someone
worthy of me, Chatillon.

Do you love that
one-handed man, Mila?

Neither you nor Gumustegin...

I don't have even miles
in my heart anymore.

I belong to only one person.

Who is he?

It seems Chatillon found the
chance he was looking for, brother.

He's going to k*ll her.

This was the plan as
we released him, brother.

Let them fight each other.

Someone's coming, brother.

Don't show mercy to a woman who
touched an innocent baby, my Sultan.

-Who?
-There is only one person in my heart.

It's Salahuddin!

Oh my god... what
did I do to deserve this?

I'll k*ll first you and
then Salahuddin.

Someone's coming, brother.
We should keep going.

We need to go
where Sultan Ismail is.
