[Episode 2]
We're ready for a blast, sir.
We're ready for a blast, sir.
If we stay longer we will burn!
Everyone abandon ship, immediately!
Let's go!
Let's go!
Bear with it, Shahen-Shah,
I will save you from here.
Hold on to me.
Hold on to me.
Let's go.
Come on.
Let's go.
Saladin ignored the court's
decision and went to Ashkelon.
How is this possible, my brother?
He's obviously made up his mind.
He's obviously made up his mind.
We'll get into trouble because of him!
Who will hold him accountable?
If there is a reckoning,
I will be the one to decide.
If there will be a punishment,
I will do that.
If there will be a punishment,
I will do that.
Saladin will pay the price
for overstepping our bonds.
Don't make it any longer, Nusr ad-Din.
Saladin's boldness is
not on his own alone.
Rather, you are the one who
made him reach this state.
He's so spoiled because
you let him get away with it.
Stick to your limits, Nusr ad-Din.
Stick to your limit!
I am your elder brother and your Sultan.
How can you talk to me like this?
We have made our father's legacy a state.
We have made our father's legacy a state.
I am one of the Malik's of this country.
If something goes wrong,
I have the right to investigate.
Do you remember now
that you are our father's son?
Do you remember now
that you are our father's son?
I though you are my brother
and we gave you land!
You caused us a lot of trouble,
we brought you to the palace!
How quickly you forgot!
How quickly you forgot!
If your neck still hasn't
crossed the tightrope,
This is thanks to you
being our father's son!
Don't ever accuse me or
my son with bad words again!
Don't ever accuse me or
my son with bad words again!
Release.
Oiled arrows!
They won't even be able
to find his body anymore, sir.
It will become bait for fish.
Now, it's Ashkelon's turn.
Now, it's Ashkelon's turn.
Let all ships go
To Ashkelon!
[DAMASCUS]
-Is there any news from Saladin?
-The siege is still continuing.
-Is there any news from Saladin?
-The siege is still continuing.
We haven't received any news yet.
What are these preparations, my lord?
What are these preparations, my lord?
I can't stay here any longer!
If I were not his father's son
He would have strangled
me with a tight rope long ago!
A large country could
not control Saladin.
The man did not comply with
orders and ignored them.
He draws strength from his father.
What else would it be?
What else would it be?
My uncle Nur ad-Din
is doing the right thing.
If our father had done that, we
wouldn't be in this situation now.
-Izz ad-Din!
-Am I wrong, mother?
We are also from this family, but have we
ever seen anything good from it?
There is no difference between
us and the palace chamberlain!
There is no difference between
us and the palace chamberlain!
-You rascal!
-Do not you dare!
No, Nusr ad-Din.
Listen to what he says!
You are exceeding your limit, Izz ad-Din.
You are our most precious
treasure for the throne.
If we are keeping you in the palace,
it is to ensure your safety.
If we are keeping you in the palace,
it is to ensure your safety.
Understand your value!
Your father does what
he can for our family.
Sultan Nur ad-Din and Saladin
turned the country into a farm.
The problems they
created will reach us too.
It seems that rule was a
burden on Sultan Nur ad-Din.
It seems that rule was a
burden on Sultan Nur ad-Din.
Start taking control, Nusr ad-Din.
So that everyone can see that
we are the owners of this country.
Your Honor, open your eyes!
Let's go!
Your Honor, open your eyes!
Let's go!
How is he doing?
He swallowed water. We have
to get the water out of his lungs.
Your Honor, open your eyes!
We must hurry, the Crusaders
may come at any moment!
Open your eyes, Your Honor, open them!
Let's go!
Come on, open it, come on!
Thank God!
Thank God!
Thank God!
Stop, where are you going?
Ashkelon was captured.
There is a massacre inside. Run
and save your lives, Mrs. Sureyya.
Dad!
Dad!
Dad!
Shahen-Shah.
Where is Shahen-Shah?
Where is Shahen-Shah?
Turan-Shah took him from the other shore.
We have to hurry, Your Honor.
The Crusaders may come at any moment.
Ashkelon
What happened to Ashkelon?
What happened to you, dad?
What happened to you, dad?
Open your eyes.
His wound is severe.
But they killed many of us inside.
We'll kill them too!
We'll kill them too!
He who died is dead,
Whoever survives will
continue to resist until the end!
Stop, aunt!
We will withdraw.
I would rather attack and die than
live with the stigma of cowardice.
Your life is not the only one here!
My father's wounds are severe.
The people are in a miserable condition.
If we do not withdraw now,
many people will perish.
If we do not withdraw now,
many people will perish.
When the time comes,
we will take back our homeland.
Let's go!
Halil!
Halil!
Gabriel!
They occupied it.
If I were a martyr, I would not grieve,
But seeing these man in the Muslim
homeland makes my heart weak.
I swear the real war will start now.
I swear the real war will start now.
Either we take Ashkelon,
Or we will die for it.
I will destroy you too, you traitor!
Don't think you'll get
away with what you did!
I'm the one who's going
to kill you, it's me!
I will hang your corpse on these walls!
I will hang your corpse on these walls!
How many of you are left?
Saladin, whom you trusted, also left.
He sank to the bottom of the sea.
He sank to the bottom of the sea.
And you bear the penalty for trusting him.
We don't need anyone.
We'll be enough for you.
We'll be enough for you.
We still have more
work to do with you.
Take him.
Host him well.
Did Saladin die?
We don't know yet.
But we sent all our
knights everywhere.
Don't worry.
If he dies, Ashkelon will
be the sign of my victory.
If he dies, Ashkelon will
be the sign of my victory.
If he is alive,
Losing Ashkelon would
be worse than death for him.
Your hell begins now.
My little one, my little one!
Come and see!
It's all your fault!
My father is on his deathbed.
My brother Halil is a prisoner.
Our families are in a miserable condition!
Do you see the Ashkelon
you've come to rescue?
All this because of your
preparations for war.
All this because of your
preparations for war.
I told you we should
have soldiers at sea.
But you didn't listen to me.
We lost our five-hundred-year-old
homeland because of you!
We lost our five-hundred-year-old
homeland because of you!
We trusted you!
But it seems we made a mistake.
But it seems we made a mistake.
Deliver the good news
to your father, son of Zanki!
We lost Ashkelon because of you!
Enjoy it!
Enjoy it!
Celebrate on our disaster!
Shahen-Shah, my brother!
My brother.
Shahen-Shah.
His situation is very critical.
His situation is very critical.
My wound is deep.
My wound is deep.
There's no time left.
The time has come for
my martyrdom, Your Highness.
Do not say that.
You will endure.
Do not say that.
We have dreamed together
for years of conquering Jerusalem.
One part of me will remain
incomplete without you.
Resist.
You will endure, Shahen-Shah.
Jerusalem will certainly
become ours, Malik.
I didn't doubt this for a moment.
I didn't doubt this for a moment.
I cannot see this
But maybe my son Omer will.
But maybe my son Omer will.
Now, it is up to you.
And to my son Omer as well.
And to my son Omer as well.
We will not survive this ring of fire.
But I will put out the fire
burning inside me for years.
But I will put out the fire
burning inside me for years.
You told me that you would
put out the fire inside you.
Give me that fire to
extinguish it, Shahen-Shah.
Dedicate your soul to your brother.
Dedicate your soul to your brother.
And devote your blood to your brother.
And keep the seal in your heart and tongue.
And carry this secret
with you to your grave.
When spark comes out of the tongue,
A fire breaks out.
Only martyrdom will extinguish it.
I bear witness that there
is no god but Allah.
And I bear witness that Muhammad
is his servant and messenger.
And I bear witness that Muhammad
is his servant and messenger.
Shahen-Shah!
Shahen-Shah!
Brother!
Brother!
Catch him!
I hope that the worries that disturb you
will fly away like that arrow, my lord.
I hope that the worries that disturb you
will fly away like that arrow, my lord.
My worry will not end until
this Ashkelon issue is finalized.
If any harm befalls Saladin
there, this is worrying.
And if Saladin returns here
safely, this is also worrying.
I trained Malik Saladin to
use the sword for years.
He's been like this since that age.
One end of the sword is sharp.
One end of the sword is sharp.
But he was always like
a double-edged sword.
This is exactly what worries me, Shirkoh.
Soldiers!
I was waiting for my dog ​​to
bring my hunt, King Baldwin.
And here you are.
You've become the hunted,
but you don't have a clue.
You've become the hunted,
but you don't have a clue.
Sultan Nur ad-Din.
We have conquered Ashkelon.
We have conquered Ashkelon.
Your son, who came to help,
was unable to save it.
He's at the bottom of the sea.
First I will kill you
Then I will kill everyone
who killed my son!
My lord, Malik Saladin
has survived safely.
My lord, Malik Saladin
has survived safely.
Even if your son is alive,
The defeat we made him
suffer is worse than death.
And you were also defeated
with him, Nur ad-Din.
And you were also defeated
with him, Nur ad-Din.
You are someone who
has just become a sultan.
Did you think you would be able to
confront the great Kingdom of Jerusalem?
My son is gone of his
own free will, King Baldwin.
My son is gone of his
own free will, King Baldwin.
If I had brought my army, you
wouldn't be able to speak like this.
Thank God for the treaty between us.
Thank God for the treaty between us.
The treaty has been broken!
You are responsible what your son does.
That's why I barracked my
soldiers on the pilgrimage route.
If a single drop of blood
is shed on the way to pilgrimage
There will be no limit
to the blood I will shed.
I'm not afraid of blood.
I'm not afraid of blood.
But whether or not we shed blood
on the way to pilgrimage is up to you.
As long as your son go
there with his own free will,
Punish him so that
he will not face us again.
And from now on
You will never touch Ashkelon.
Otherwise
The soldiers I have placed on the
pilgrimage road will shed blood.
You will be responsible
for this, Sultan Nur ad-Din.
Get ready, we're going to Damascus.
I will not go anywhere until I
avenge my brother, Your Highness.
We've lost so many men, we
won't be able to attack like this.
We've lost so many men, we
won't be able to attack like this.
We will gather our strength and return.
Are you seeking to eliminate the rest?
Put your sword into its sheath.
Won't our return defeated
be a lump in our throat?
Won't our return defeated
be a lump in our throat?
Won't Shahen-Shah turn in his grave?
If your friendship and loyalty
is this, so be it!
I will sacrifice my life if
necessary to avenge my brother.
I will sacrifice my life if
necessary to avenge my brother.
You are the one who caused
the martyrdom of Shahen-Shah.
If you had not disobeyed the
orders of His Highness the Malik
We would not have lost
Ashkelon or Shahen-Shah.
-Pars!
-Now you are thinking about him?
-Pars!
-Now you are thinking about him?
Pars!
I did what was my responsibility.
Now it falls to me to
fight to avenge my brother.
Now it falls to me to
fight to avenge my brother.
Enough!
Shahen-Shah is the brother of all of us.
Shahen-Shah is the brother of all of us.
First we will fulfill our duty to him.
Then we will do whatever is necessary.
Come here!
Our market has become more
blessed this year, Your Highness.
Caravans of merchants come
from Constantinople and Samarkand.
Caravans of merchants come
from Constantinople and Samarkand.
Leave the market aside now, Emir Eyub.
This Ashkelon issue will
burn everyone to ashes.
Your sons Turan-Shah and
Shahen-Shah were there too.
They are also considered to
have disobeyed council's order.
Do you know how they would justify this?
Do you know how they would justify this?
Malik Saladin expressed his determination.
It is natural that they would not
leave him alone, Your Highness.
The councils order is higher
than the prince's determination.
You know this best, Emir Eyub.
If you have controlled your children,
Perhaps it would have broken
Malik Saladin's determination as well.
Until today, no bad thing against the
state has ever come from Malik Saladin.
Until today, no bad thing against the
state has ever come from Malik Saladin.
That's why we trust him.
I see that you defend Malik
Saladin as much as your sons.
Where did this love for Saladin come from?
Your Honor.
Your Honor.
We just got news.
The Crusaders captured Ashkelon.
What about my children?
We have no knowledge.
But there are martyrs.
But there are martyrs.
Saladin escaped safely.
Malik Saladin disobeyed
the council's order.
And he was defeated.
And he threw us into destruction.
He will pay dearly for this.
He will pay dearly for this.
The penalty for disobeying the
council's order reaches the death.
Of course, the Sultan's word is
the final say, and he has justice, but
Of course, the Sultan's word is
the final say, and he has justice, but
When it comes to his son
I worry.
State affairs won't count no son.
We will see whether the Sultan will choose
the state, or will he choose his son?
We will see whether the Sultan will choose
the state, or will he choose his son?
Where are Turan-Shah and Shahen-Shah?
Did they come back?
They went to Ashkelon, father.
They went to Ashkelon, father.
The Crusaders captured Ashkelon.
And we have martyrs.
And we have martyrs.
Your Honor!
Your Honor!
Where is Shahen-Shah?
Where is your brother, son?
Son!
Brother!
Son!
Son, son!
Son!
Dad!
Dad!
Son!
Dad, please get up, Dad!
Dad, please get up, Dad!
Get up, dad, please!
Tell my father to wake up, uncle.
Get up, dad!
Wake up!
Wake up!
Was I destined to see you like this?
You tell dad to wake up.
If you tell him you,
he will get up, he will obey you.
Dad!
Please wake up, dad!
Find Saladin immediately.
Find Saladin immediately.
-Wherever he is!
-Yes, my Sultan.
My Sultan.
I heard what happened in Ashkelon.
This isn't the right time, Nusr ad-Din.
This is exactly the right time, my Sultan.
I have told you many times that this
matter will bring us misfortune, my lord.
King Baldwin put his soldiers
on the pilgrimage route.
King Baldwin put his soldiers
on the pilgrimage route.
How will we overcome this?
Our country, which we
established with great difficulty,
Will it be disgraced like this?
Will it be disgraced like this?
It requires tranquility, Your Highness.
It is not appropriate for
there to be a fuss between us.
Who is causing the chaos,
Is the Malik Saladin himself.
Is the Malik Saladin himself.
His stubbornness is the
reason for what happened.
It's time for justice, my Sultan.
The council must convene quickly,
And Malik Saladin should be put on trial.
My nephew.
The brave Shahen-Shah.
You were the one who gave him that sword.
You were the one who gave him that sword.
And you trained him to be one
of the warriors of the borders.
Unfortunately, those man
take it from his hand.
If I don't avenge you,
May my sword be forbidden to me.
May my sword be forbidden to me.
The warriors of the border had
never been defeated in any war before.
Were the Ashkelonians the
ones who ruined everything?
Malik Saladin was the
one who planned the war.
We complied with his order.
We complied with his order.
This happened because of disobeying
the orders of Malik Saladin, Turan-Shah.
This happened because of disobeying
the orders of Malik Saladin, Turan-Shah.
-While we know who killed him
-Ahmed!
I say the truth.
-Why are you upset?
-Enough!
The body of my martyred
son has not been buried yet.
And you argue over him about
who is right and who is guilty!
And you argue over him about
who is right and who is guilty!
Does it suit you at all?
My condolences to you.
Your honor.
Your honor.
Sultan Nur ad-Din is
waiting for you at the court.
Did Malik Saladin come to the palace?
He hasn't arrived yet, Melike Hatun.
So sorry!
Malik Saladin threw the country
into the flames for the sake of Ashkelon.
This country has seen a lot of fire.
He will put out this
fire before it ignites.
Don't worry.
But the hands that will extinguish the fire
is also on fire this time, Melike Hatun.
But the hands that will extinguish the fire
is also on fire this time, Melike Hatun.
What does this mean?
The King of Jerusalem cut off the
pilgrimage route because of Malik Saladin.
Sultan Nur ad-Din had been
entrusted with the pilgrimage route.
Sultan Nur ad-Din had been
entrusted with the pilgrimage route.
This means that the fires
set by Malik Saladin,
It also affected Sultan
Nur ad-Din this time.
This fire will turn more people into ash.
A lot.
Oh, oh!
The name that will never be forgotten in
the Zanki family, even after years, is you.
The name that will never be forgotten in
the Zanki family, even after years, is you.
No one suffered us a defeat like
the one at your hands to this day.
We will now see what punishment
you will receive from the council.
We will now see what punishment
you will receive from the council.
I think it's time for someone
actually worthy to take your place.
Not everyone is destined to
understand war, Izz ad-Din.
If you get off your mother's lap one day,
And became a soldier,
If you get off your mother's lap one day,
And became a soldier,
And go to the battlefield,
then you'll understand.
You haven't seen your son,
For your cause.
Right when we see him,
Other day he became a martyr.
What hurts me the most,
He died without knowing that Saladin, who
he fought side by side with him for years,
Was his brother.
Was his brother.
Shahen-Shah.
He was martyred on the battlefield.
Even if there are tears in my eyes,
My heart is at peace.
But Saladin,
But Saladin,
He will be tried for disobeying the court.
Even if the rule belongs to the Sultan,
He will not be able to
prevent what will happen.
He will not be able to
prevent what will happen.
Our son is trapped within a pack of wolves.
If the death sentence
is issued by the court,
If the death sentence
is issued by the court,
He will not be a martyr
if he dies as a traitor.
You cannot say that he died for the truth.
Did I give a part of my soul,
To march towards his execution?
Our son who they took from us,
Our son who they took from us,
was this the path he was going to walk?
My brother is ready for burial, father.
Tell them to wait.
Why, dad?
There is something we need to solve first.
I told the Sultan before that I
would not make my son a scapegoat.
I told the Sultan before that I
would not make my son a scapegoat.
I think it's time to reveal the secret.
I'll go ahead
and say that Saladin is our son.
If they were going to kill him, let them
kill all the Eyyubi family if necessary.
If they were going to kill him, let them
kill all the Eyyubi family if necessary.
Was it worth this losing battle?
To disobey state orders?
Malik Saladin.
I have nothing to lose yet, my lord.
I have nothing to lose yet, my lord.
But if you keep holding me here,
They will take over Ashkelon.
Allow me to gather my warriors to go.
Allow me to gather my warriors to go.
First, you will pay the price
for what you did, Malik Saladin.
You cannot be allowed to
disobey the council's orders again.
What I did was the state's truth!
What I did was the state's truth!
The only thing I disobeyed
was the enemy's threats.
The enemy's threats
to us have gotten worse.
If you had not intervened in Ashkelon,
If you had not intervened in Ashkelon,
the problems of the pilgrims’
route would not have begun.
Look, King Baldwin has his soldiers there.
Malik Nusr ad-Din is right, my lord.
Malik Nusr ad-Din is right, my lord.
This very mission
was given to you by the Caliph.
What will happen to your reputation now?
It's clear that King Baldwin is
trying to scare us with his threats.
We should talk here about
how to save Ashkelon,
and the pilgrims’ route, not about me.
We must take action before it is too late.
We must take action before it is too late.
If we do something else, The Kingdom
of Jerusalem, the Province of Tripoli,
And the Principality of
Antakia will unite against us.
We have no power to stop them all.
My lord.
You must give such a fair statement that
You must give such a fair statement that
The state's reputation must be saved,
and a peace with King Baldwin
must be brokered.
Your nephew was martyred, Shirkoh.
What do you say?
My nephew was the victim
of a mistake, it's true.
He will undoubtedly be a martyr.
But the issue is not personal, but
rather concerns the entire country.
The punishment must be according
to the balance of the state.
The punishment must be according
to the balance of the state.
The scales of the state are infallible.
But
But punishment of a
Malik should not be easy.
We are trying to defend the state,
We are trying to defend the state,
Against the infidel Crusaders.
And you are still about the people.
Justice is one for all.
There is no prejudice between a peasant
in the farm and a Malik in the palace.
There is no prejudice between a peasant
in the farm and a Malik in the palace.
If the issue is disobeying
the council's orders,
There should be no privilege.
Hundreds of thousands
of people live under this state.
Hundreds of thousands
of people live under this state.
We can't risk them all for the
sake of one person's rebellion.
In order to restore the reputation
and survival of the state,
This must be done immediately.
Malik Saladin must
get his share of justice.
-We will meet with the Sultan, Imad.
-The Sultan in the council.
I will also enter the council as
the governor of the Damascus.
I will also enter the council as
the governor of the Damascus.
It is not right for you to enter the
council after it has begun, Your Honor.
We know this.
We wouldn't have come
if it wasn't important.
We have something to say in the council.
There is no doubt about
the extent of the crime.
There is no doubt about
the extent of the crime.
Do you have anything to
defend yourself, Malik Saladin?
I did it for my country, not for myself.
Ashkelon is a door that the Crusaders
want to open to enter the Islamic world.
I acted according to my responsibility
as a Malik to prevent them from doing so.
Even if the results are not satisfactory,
I have not committed any
disobedience towards my country.
I will not accept you here,
Accusing me of being a traitor.
Justice does not take
intentions into account.
Rather, it makes its judgment
based on the results.
The results are clear.
The state does not have
to pay for these results
Rather, those who brought the state into
this are the ones who must pay the price.
Rather, those who brought the state into
this are the ones who must pay the price.
The pilgrimage season
is approaching, my lord.
The pilgrimage season
is approaching, my lord.
From Turkestan, Anatolia,
Baghdad, and Khorasan.
Thousands of Muslims
will travel for pilgrimage.
And their souls are all entrusted to you.
And their souls are all entrusted to you.
King Baldwin has already stationed
his soldiers on the pilgrimage route.
Those responsible must
receive their share of justice,
So that we can show
Baldwin that our intentions are good.
Then he completely will turn
away from the pilgrimage path.
Otherwise, a lot of blood will be shed.
You cannot talk about a Malik
so recklessly, Emir Reyhani.
You cannot talk about a Malik
so recklessly, Emir Reyhani.
If the perpetrator of this sin was
not a Malik but a peasant
What punishment would
he receive, Your Excellency?
What do you want, Emir Reyhani?
What do you want, Emir Reyhani?
Speak clearly and frankly.
We judge by the extent of guilt.
Otherwise, let my lord judge.
Malik Saladin.
Do you have anything else to say?
Warriors of the borders,
It is an organization that has
existed since the first Crusades.
It is an organization that has
existed since the first Crusades.
Their only mission
is to fight the Crusaders.
And expel them from Islamic countries.
Some countries
may follow different policies.
But we are not obligated to follow it.
But we are not obligated to follow it.
I just did my duty,
Which history imposed to me.
Back then
Didn't you take responsibility
without being thinking for your life,
Against the will of my grandfather,
Imad ad-Din Zanki?
If you had not done that, would
you be where you are, my lord?
And you
Kings, ministers, leaders
Didn't you bear responsibility
towards the state?
If no one among us takes responsibility,
How will we reach our goals?
How will we reach our goals?
How will we advance this country?
I have not committed any sin.
I just did the job assigned to me.
I do not regret.
And I still say,
We shouldn't leave Ashkelon
to the Crusaders.
We shouldn't leave Ashkelon
to the Crusaders.
But
If in exchange for my
interest in my country,
There is to be killed
There is to be killed
I have nothing to say.
Come in.
Come in.
My lord.
Malik Saladin
He is tried for a serious crime.
My heart did not accept to remain silent.
And I'm here to announce something.
And I'm here to announce something.
He knew the consequences
when he decided to go.
If something happens,
In Ashkelon to Saladin and his brothers
Or if the state decides,
For the punishment of Saladin
For the punishment of Saladin
I will reveal this secret.
I will tell everyone that Saladin,
is my son.
I will tell everyone that Saladin,
is my son.
What have you come to announce?
Something related to,
Malik Saladin.
Something I hope is a reason,
To save him from that punishment.
Nothing can save
Malik Saladin anymore.
It will.
It will.
Because he is
Not the son of Sultan Nur ad-Din.
Rather, my son.
Nothing can save Malik Saladin anymore.
It will.
Because he is
Not the only one in fault at the battle.
My son Turan-Shah was also responsible.
My son Turan-Shah was also responsible.
Your Honor.
No father would throw
his own son into the fire.
No father would throw
his own son into the fire.
Do you have another goal?
My only goal
It is to achieve justice.
What you said is of
no importance, Emir Eyub.
Malik Saladin is not being
tried because he lost the battle,
But because he disobeyed state orders.
He ignored and disobeyed the council’s
order and went to Ashkelon.
Whatever it is,
the responsibility for that is on him.
Therefore, he must be removed from all his
duties and his sword should be taken away.
Therefore, he must be removed from all his
duties and his sword should be taken away.
My verdict is
Malik Saladin.
From now on
Will not stay at the headquarters
of the warriors of the border.
But you will stay here.
In Damascus.
As for his removal from his duties,
And taking his sword away from him,
I don't find it necessary.
My whole life,
And my whole existence is with
the warriors of the borders.
While Ashkelon is in the hands
of the Crusaders,
You decided to imprison me here.
You decided to imprison me here.
What I imprisoned is your will.
Saladin.
From now on, you will not act on your own.
From now on, you will not act on your own.
Like an ordinary soldier?
The foundation of the state is to serve it.
Whether you are leader of them,
Whether you are leader of them,
Or just a soldier,
there is no difference between them.
The ruling only
for our venerable Sultan.
What is the situation?
They surrounded every place.
It is impossible for us to attack
with such a small number of men.
It is impossible for us to attack
with such a small number of men.
I will go to Sultan Nur ad-Din.
And I ask him to send us an army.
Have you lost your mind?
Didn't we lose our homeland
because of his son?
Didn't we lose our homeland
because of his son?
Are you going to go to him and beg?
I won't beg, aunt.
I will ask for the things they caused us.
He will send us a forced army.
He will send us a forced army.
Will the man who didn't send
an army to defend Ashkelon then,
would send one now, Sureyya Hatun?
If he won't send it, they too
would suffer the consequences.
If he won't send it, they too
would suffer the consequences.
Do they think I'm a fool?
Do they think I'm a fool?
He took his soldiers
and went to the Damascus!
It will be managed by
state order and such!
Is this a punishment?
Whatever he had should have been taken.
He should never have
been given another mission.
If it were up to me,
you are right, but
If it were up to me,
you are right, but
We must submit to the order.
The great country has become a
toy in the hands of father and son.
Unless the justice we want is achieved,
There will be no peace for us or the state.
There will be no peace for us or the state.
He is still talking about saving
Ashkelon and fighting the Crusaders!
I'm afraid that Malik Saladin
will get us into trouble again.
I'm afraid that Malik Saladin
will get us into trouble again.
There is no salvation for him this time.
I'll keep an eye on him.
And the moment he tries to
make a slightest mistake,
He will receive the necessary punishment.
He will receive the necessary punishment.
Your wisdom has overcome our worry, sir.
One of our sons was martyred.
We buried him deep inside us.
But
We cannot remain silent
for the sake of our other son.
Saladin is now on the verge of death.
What is our responsibility is to,
Reveal the secret,
And protect our son.
And protect our son.
Only God, the All-Knowing, knows whether
Saladin is in danger of death or not.
Even if this path is difficult, there
are those who can lend a helping hand.
Even if this path is difficult, there
are those who can lend a helping hand.
Have you lost hope in the way,
or from who extend a helping hand?
If you lose hope in the way,
Know that,
This way belongs to God.
And if you have lost hope in
who extend a helping hand,
Know that,
If Saladin was a descendant of yours,
If Saladin was a descendant of yours,
He is on the path of who
extends a helping hand.
We did not reveal the secret.
You have done what befits you as a
traveler on this road, Your Majesty.
You have done what befits you as a
traveler on this road, Your Majesty.
But still,
The punishment was heavy for Saladin.
We hope that there
will be no problem, God willing.
Sometimes, it's a road of fire.
His heart will not burn
if he follows the cause,
Rather, it will harden it like steel.
Don't worry.
Don't worry.
Your Majesty, our Sultan is
waiting for you before him.
Your Majesty, our Sultan is
waiting for you before him.
Have you come to ask the
Zanki's for help to reclaim Ashkelon?
You won't be able to do that.
Even if I sacrifice my life here,
Ashkelon will no longer be yours!
Even if I sacrifice my life here,
Ashkelon will no longer be yours!
I don't want you to die.
We will make an agreement with you.
But first lift that lid and
show us that beauty.
But first lift that lid and
show us that beauty.
Let the terror of my wrath
be in your eyes when you die!
You came here to reveal the secret.
Then you changed your decision.
How can you risk such a thing, Eyub?
How can you suggest that you will reveal
the secret while looking into my eyes?
How can you suggest that you will reveal
the secret while looking into my eyes?
I told you, my Sultan.
If Saladin were to receive
a severe punishment
If Saladin were to receive
a severe punishment
Saladin is my son!
My son!
We agreed to this years ago.
I raised him.
I raised him.
Make sure, Eyub, that
My love for Saladin is
no less than your love for him.
We did not want things
to reach this far, my Sultan.
We did not want things
to reach this far, my Sultan.
But
Our heart is the heart
of a father and a mother.
There is also a father's heart here, Eyub.
There is also a father's heart here, Eyub.
Here there is also a father's heart.
My heart beats for
Saladin day and night.
If there's any danger to him
I will protect him and be
his shield before anyone else.
I will protect him and be
his shield before anyone else.
If so
Why did you get him into such a problem?
Here is a state, Eyub!
Here is a state, Eyub!
Here is the state!
This is how Saladin will learn
about the nature of the state.
This is how Saladin will learn
about the nature of the state.
By throwing him into the fire,
he will become like steel!
He will be strengthened
by hitting him on an anvil.
Then he will become a sword
worthy of the sheath of the state.
Then he will become a sword
worthy of the sheath of the state.
Look, Eyub.
You have drawn attention to me
by revealing the breastfeeding.
You have drawn attention to me
by revealing the breastfeeding.
Saladin even came to me suspiciously
and asked me, but I evaded him.
You won't try to be the father of
Saladin again while I'm here.
You won't try to be the father of
Saladin again while I'm here.
You will not try to
reveal the secret again.
You will not try to
reveal the secret again.
Otherwise, I know how to keep you,
your wife, and your children away,
Otherwise, I know how to keep you,
your wife, and your children away,
From Saladin.
Are you okay?
As long as nothing happens to you,
I couldn't have been better than this!
Bandage it.
Bandage it.
We must reach the
Damascus as soon as possible.
Let's go.
Come on, ride the horses!
[ASHKELON]
[ASHKELON]
Walk, walk.
Stop whining, come on.
With this victory you achieved,
Our holy city, Jerusalem,
has been saved, Gabriel.
Now we are richer and stronger
in our kingdom and in our holy city.
Now we are richer and stronger
in our kingdom and in our holy city.
May God bless you.
We will not just stop here,
Rather, we will destroy
and take all the Muslim cities.
Even the Damascus,
which is the heart of the Zanki's.
Saladin escaped my grasp once.
But this time I will take
his soul with my sword.
But this time I will take
his soul with my sword.
I backed them into corner by
placing soldiers on the pilgrimage route,
So, neither Nur ad-Din nor
Saladin could do anything anymore.

Saladin could do anything anymore.
This sword is your victory gift.
This is the status of the you becoming
the Commander of Ashkelon from now on.
This is the status of the you becoming
the Commander of Ashkelon from now on.
I think you were going to
say Count, Your Majesty.
Count?
Count?
I didn't understand.
I have come here to put on my
father's crown and become a count.
I have come here to put on my
father's crown and become a count.
And to make your sister
Victoria a countess as well.
Where did the Victoria come from?
Where did the Victoria come from?
You also know that we have
loved each other for years.
You said you'd accept
anything for me to take Ashkelon.
You said you'd accept
anything for me to take Ashkelon.
And I sent the word to our commander,
Blackford, a long time ago.
They're on their way
with Princess Victoria.
They're on their way
with Princess Victoria.
They will be here tomorrow.
If you fail to comply
with my terms,
You will grieve our greatest
leader, Your Majesty.
Protecting Ashkelon from Nur ad-Din and
Saladin without their help is difficult.
Protecting Ashkelon from Nur ad-Din and
Saladin without their help is difficult.
I'll be at your wedding
with my sister Victoria here.
I will celebrate your victory
and your marriage,
I will celebrate your victory
and your marriage,
Count of Ashkelon, Gabriel.
I hope you too keep your promise,
And protect Ashkelon from
the danger of Nur ad-Din.
Don't worry, Your Majesty.
As how I took Ashkelon
from Saladin's hand
I will also take what
I want from Nur ad-Din.
I will also take what
I want from Nur ad-Din.
My lord.
My lord.
I wouldn't be sad if you
had thrown me in prison.
Why did you punish me like this, father?
Why did you punish me like this, father?
Do you also ask, Saladin?!
What did I say to you?
The moment you step into Ashkelon,
It means you risked paying that price.
I also want to extend
a helping hand to Ashkelon.
I do.
But the moment I sent my army,
Baldwin will shed blood
on the pilgrimage route.
If I go with my men,
All responsibility will
fall on my shoulders, father.
All responsibility will
fall on my shoulders, father.
I won't throw your
deal to ruin, don't worry.
Saladin
Are you sure that you and the
men with you can save Ashkelon?
Are you sure that you and the
men with you can save Ashkelon?
I'm sure, dad.
If you could have saved Ashkelon,
If you could have saved Ashkelon,
Baldwin would not have been able to
put his soldiers on the pilgrimage route.
He would have submit to us.
None of this would
have happened in the council.
This is considered a reward, not a
punishment after everything that happened.
This is considered a reward, not a
punishment after everything that happened.
Turan-Shah showed weakness.
Turan-Shah showed weakness.
Why don't you tell us?
I am responsible for everything.
If there is a weakness, it is my weakness.
If there is a weakness, it is my weakness.
It is my responsibility to make up for it.
What compensation are you
still talking about, Saladin?
What compensation are you
still talking about, Saladin?
One is not defeated when one loses,
But when he backs down, father.
The moment they don't
expect any attack from us,
We have to act right at that moment.
We have to act right at that moment.
In order to move,
You have to wait for the right time.
There's no time, Dad.
The longer we wait,
the stronger they become.
Obey my judgment, Saladin.
Don't try to do anything
without my knowledge.
Don't try to do anything
without my knowledge.
Come in.
My lord, Sureyya Hatun of
Ashkelon wants to meet you.

Your sword.
Your authority will decide whether

We are all sorry for the loss
of Ashkelon, Sureyya Hatun.
We are all sorry for the loss
of Ashkelon, Sureyya Hatun.
Speak up, I'm listening.
The goal is not achieved simply by talking.
If you are sorry, you
should do what is necessary.
What is necessary?
What is necessary?
Because of your son's faulty
planning, we lost Ashkelon.
Now to compensate for
this is a debt on your necks.
Now to compensate for
this is a debt on your necks.
I cannot send an army to Ashkelon.
The conditions are not right.
First, you caused the loss of our homeland.
First, you caused the loss of our homeland.
And now you leave us
in the middle of the road.
If you are not sincere in your friendship,
We will be determined in our hostility.
We will be determined in our hostility.
Obviously, your anger comes from your pain.
But you are releasing your
anger in the wrong place.
Because Ashkelon is not your issue
alone anymore, it is our issue too.
Because Ashkelon is not your issue
alone anymore, it is our issue too.
You've said that before.
But we saw what happened next.
My father is on his deathbed.

My brother is a prisoner.
We are already tired
of your tales of brothers!
Your people are defeated and sad.

You were exiled from your homeland.
Even if you declare war on us now,
How long can you resist us?
My words are not personal,

Rather, the words of all
the people of Ashkelon.
We are not afraid of your abundance.
We do not refuse or
back down because we are few.
We do not refuse or
back down because we are few.
But we refuse and retreat.
While the Crusaders became
a circle of fire around us,
We will not allow Muslims to harm Muslims.
Sureyya Hatun.
Ashkelon is under Crusader occupation.

Our pilgrimage route is under threat.
Now is the time to act
wisely, not impulsively.
Now is the time to act
wisely, not impulsively.
We can only overcome all these
worries and problems if we unite.
We tried this union once.
But we made a mistake.
From now on, Ashkelon is ours alone.
My lord, Gabriel has arrived.
Do you welcome your neighbor with anger
when who is coming to talk to your Sultan?
You are not our neighbor,
you are our arch enemy.
Of course, you will be held
accountable for your actions.
I did what I had to do, Shirkoh.
If you'll hold someone accountable,
you should hold Saladin accountable
If you'll hold someone accountable,
you should hold Saladin accountable
Who sent your nephew and your
men to their deaths in plain sight.
Gabriel, we know exactly who
to ask, what and when to ask.
Gabriel, we know exactly who
to ask, what and when to ask.
As for my nephew, look at the
sea where his blood was shed.
When the time comes, we
will drown you in that sea.
When the time comes, we
will drown you in that sea.
You know very well what
war is, Commander Shirkoh.
That is, if you are going
to grieve for your relatives,
That is, if you are going
to grieve for your relatives,
keep them at home and
do not send them to war.
If we lose one Shahen-Shah,
a thousand will replace him!
If we lose one Shahen-Shah,
a thousand will replace him!
-And of course we will take revenge on you!
-A thousand Shahen-Shah?!
Then I will claim the lives
of a thousand Shahen-Shah!
His Majesty Sultan Nur ad-Din
is waiting for Gabriel.
I will meet Sultan Nur ad-Din, go away!
You can't enter.
You will wait here.
How dare you come here?
Do you remember this
crown, Sultan Nur ad-Din?
It's was my father,
Jocelyn's, Count of Urfa.
If Jocelyn's mind was in his head, his
crown would remain on his head until now.
If Jocelyn's mind was in his head, his
crown would remain on his head until now.
Looks like you'll end
up like your father.
I have revived the earldom that you
thought you destroyed, Sultan Nur ad-Din.
I am speaking to you as Count of Ashkelon.
I am speaking to you as Count of Ashkelon.
Do you think we can allow
our 500-year-old country,
To turn into an infidel
state, you scoundrel?!
Don't be too happy, Gabriel.
We will destroy your earldom as
we destroyed your father's.
You are very bold for someone who was
defeated by his first battle with me.
If you come here just
to say these malicious words,
If you come here just
to say these malicious words,
I will cut out your
tongue and send it back!
I want Urfa!
The pilgrimage route is
no longer safe for you.
The Ashkelonian prisoners
are still in my possession.
The Ashkelonian prisoners
are still in my possession.
Sureyya's brother Halil.
Give me Urfa, which is my
father's land, and I, in turn,
Will withdraw my soldiers
from the pilgrimage route.

I will release the prisoners in my
possession, including Sureyya's brother.
Look at this!
The enemy is roaming around the
palace and the Sultan is watching!

This Crown Prince, Saladin, has
imposed a great calamity on us,
But he walks around freely like
this as if nothing had happened.
But he walks around freely like
this as if nothing had happened.
I should have been in Saladin's place.
And you should be in my uncle's place!
If this continues, we will have
to wait longer for our rights.
Enough, Izz ad-Din! This wasn't created
in one day, and it won't change in one day.
Of course, there will be days when it will
change. Until then, learn to be patient.
We make here homeland with our blood,
and we will not give even a single inch

Until you accept my offer, one of my
prisoners will die every passing day.
Until you accept my offer, one of my
prisoners will die every passing day.
One of whom is Sureyya's brother.
Why did you let him go?
Why did you let him go?
Didn't you hear how he said he would kill
all the prisoners he had in his possession?
If we comply with their wishes,
they will get everything they want.
Even if you had not given up your land,
an agreement could have been reached.

But you just cut it off.
My brother's live is in stake.
Don't fall for his trick and act rashly.

but to sow the seeds of discord among us.
If I am patient, it is because
I have a good reason.

We no longer have patience.
If you make one wrong move,
all of your lives will be in danger.

all of your lives will be in danger.
We will do whatever is necessary. Don't
worry, we'll have them on their knees soon.
How can you do this to me, dad?
How can you say I'm guilty in the
council? What if they execute me?!
How can you say I'm guilty in the
council? What if they execute me?!
I knew you wouldn't be punished
as long as someone was in charge.
Why did you give them my name then, father?
Why did you give them my name then, father?
The only person responsible was Malik
Saladin. I did this to alleviate his guilt.
Because he didn't mention your name.
Because he didn't mention your name.
Our conscience demands this too.
You show conscience to your son first,
father. But you hold him over your son.

father. But you hold him over your son.
-My brother is right.
-Rabia!
Realize what you are saying, daughter.

How can you talk to
your father like that?
Not just a Malik,
He's your breast fed son too.
What happened, dad? The mandate
of Damascus was not enough,
What happened, dad? The mandate
of Damascus was not enough,
and now you have your sights
set on the position of vizier?
Maybe your intention was to get closer
to the Malik and take advantage of him!
What are you accusing me of,
you scoundrel?!
-Eyub Bey, don't do it.
-Brother, calm down, for the love of God.
How can I stay calm?
Look at the treatment I'm receiving.
One cannot do this,
Or allow it to be done to the
children of one's enemies.
You have been treating me this
way since I came into this world, father.
You have been treating me this
way since I came into this world, father.
Turan-Shah!
You sent Shahen-Shah to join
the warriors of the border,
And Adil and Boru are in the Urfa.
And Adil and Boru are in the Urfa.
As for me, father?
You don't find me worthy of anything.
But you will see it, Father.
everyone will see it.
It won't be that corrupt Emir who takes
revenge on the Shahen-Shah, but rather me!
It won't be that corrupt Emir who takes
revenge on the Shahen-Shah, but rather me!
And everyone, including you,
will see who Turan-Shah is.

Oh God!
One brother died next to the other.
But others made him their enemy.

This secret
It tortured us alone for years.
I hope it doesn't destroy our children.

With the departure of the Shahen-Shah,
our sword is bent and our bow is broken.
With the departure of the Shahen-Shah,

He received the honor of being a martyr.
We are left with our hands tied.

-What will we do, Your Honor?
-Since we cannot attack Ashkelon,

-We will hit them where they do not expect.
-How?
The number of knights in Ashkelon is small,
and new knights must come there.
The number of knights in Ashkelon is small,

If we stop the army supporting them,

Their headquarters are in Jerusalem.
They can come from there too.
They won't reduce their numbers in
Jerusalem to reinforce Ashkelon.

Moreover, their masters

We will follow the places from
which the Templars could come,

Send a secret message to our

Templars, let them send us a message.
Our Sultan ordered you not to
do anything without his permission.
Our Sultan ordered you not to
do anything without his permission.
Wouldn't secretly doing business with the
warriors of borders, make this worse?
Let's get information first and
then I will talk to our Sultan.
Princess Victoria.
Grand Commander Blackford.
I will return to Jerusalem.
I will take you to Ashkelon.
I will return to Jerusalem.
I will take you to Ashkelon.
It will be my pleasure to consent
to your marriage to Gabriel.
Oh, my God! Finally I achieve my dreams.
Today is the most beautiful day of my life.
Oh, my God! Finally I achieve my dreams.
Today is the most beautiful day of my life.
But there will be
better days for Gabriel.
Because he will achieve
his real victories from now on.
Let's not keep him waiting any longer.
-What is his condition?
-His condition is still serious.
-What is his condition?
-His condition is still serious.
What did Nur ad-Din Zanki said?
He could not send an army, because
the conditions were not suitable.
I told you! We don't
need anything from them.
I told you! We don't
need anything from them.
Let it be!
What can I do, aunt?
I am also looking for a solution.
We are wounded.
We are in mourning.
We are wounded.
We are in mourning.
We are devastated.
You are an Ashkelon woman, Sureyya.
What does it mean to fall into despair?!
Look, your father is in bed.
Your brother is a prisoner.
You are the boss now!
If we are wounded,
you will heal the wounds.
If we are wounded,
you will heal the wounds.
If we are in mourning, you
will turn mourning into victory.
Even if we suffer from poverty,
You will not fear the enemy.
You will not fear the enemy.
Go out now, gather our soldiers behind you,
and show them who the Ashkelonians are!
Malik Saladin guessed correctly.
This is the Templar army on its way to
Ashkelon. Let's let him know immediately!
This is the Templar army on its way to
Ashkelon. Let's let him know immediately!
Who are you?
We are all-seeing and all-hearing.
Spies!
-Are you from Zanki's?
-We are whoever you first thought of!
Tell me why you're watching us?
I told you we are all-hearing,
not all-talking!
I told you we are all-hearing,
not all-talking!
What should we do with them, Princess?
You must fulfill the Templar
Constitution, Grand Master.
Mercy will be shown to all.
Except for non-Christians.
Apparently, from now on, the road
would be full of dangers of the Zanki.
[ASHKELON]
Fly now and go to Urfa for me.
Fly now and go to Urfa for me.
Land on my father's grave.
And tell him that your
son revived your earldom.
And tell him that your
son revived your earldom.
Tell him that soon,
He will also get Urfa back.
Come in!
My lord!
What is it, Lennart?
Did our Grand Commander
and Victoria leave Nablus?
They did, sir, but we
have a more important matter.
They did, sir, but we
have a more important matter.
-What?
-Just as you guessed, Ashkelonians.
Did you send news to the
warriors of the borders?
I sent it.
-Why are you worried?
-There is an urgent problem.
There are ancient passages
under the northern walls.
We will infiltrate from there to Ashkelon,
and we will free Halil and the prisoners.
Many years have passed
not using these passages.
It must have been closed.
This is the only way
we have, we must try it.
This girl thinks I'm an idiot.
Does she think I don't understand
that she got angry with Zanki's,
and tries to get in to
Ashkelon on her own?
Her courage deserves praise, my lord.
But she will pay dearly.
This circle of death can
only be pierced by swords.
Attack!
Attack!
Attack!
Kill them!
Attack!
Kill them!
The injured bird is well trapped, my lord.
Then kill her.
What's going on there, my lord?
Zanki's has arrived.
Attack!
I will take Shahen-Shah's revenge,
and kill 1000 of you!
The tables have turned, my lord!
-Let us also go to fight.
-No!
If we go, we will not come out alive.
We will retreat immediately.
Yes, sir.
We're backing down.
We're backing down.
-Leave me, please, don't!
-Stop!
Don't do it!
These people almost made my father die.
They imprisoned my brother.
I will not rest until
I kill all of them.
I will not rest until
I kill all of them.
He asked for your forgiveness.
You have no right to kill him.
Put down your sword now.
Then put it in its sheath.
Bury their bodies.
-Then leave him.
-Yes, sir.
And how did you know about it?
Malik Saladin informed us.
We came by order of the Sultan.
You will lose blood.
Do you understand now
why you had to act so quickly?
Do you understand now
why you had to act so quickly?
There is no place for you, and you
are a clear target for the Templars.
If our Sultan accepts,
If our Sultan accepts,
Until he takes Ashkelon
Their stay in the Damascus
will be appropriate.
I will deliver the request to the Sultan,
he will see fit as well.
This is difficult.
Our intention is to
unite against the enemy.
If you stay in the Damascus, this
will be the first seed of union.
Difficulties will be easier.
We cannot live in Damascus.
My people won't accept this either.
But
If you can allocate us a place
where we can build our camp,
Then we will agree.
[ASHKELON]
[ASHKELON]
Zanki's coming to Ashkelon's
rescue was not a good thing at all.
Yes.
If they get closer with this,
If they get closer with this,
They will attack Ashkelon together.
-They will attack already.
-How will they do it?
They won't attack obviously, but,
To back us into a corner,
Saladin will do something.
Because it is the only way for securing
pilgrims' routes and taking Ashkelon back.
I'm sure he has all his plans ready.
I'm sure he has all his plans ready.
If so, we need to know
what he will do immediately.
I know who I'll learn from.
I know who I'll learn from.
He will gladly tell us
what Saladin will do.
DAMASCUS
While you were at the council, some
things happened in the palace.
What is it?
Emir Eyub and Fatma Hatun was here.
Eyub come to the council.
No big deal.
It's not their arrival that matters.

Omer Molla spoke to them about something.
Omer Molla came to offer his condolences.
What else?
What else?
Whoever comes to offer condolences
does not whisper a secret like this.
They talked as they entered
and left the palace.
They're doing something with Omer Molla.
What might they do? He is one of
God's strange dervishes, let alone this.
You don't pay attention to it, but you will
see that something will come out.
It will also be crucial.
In the name of God.
I only came here for my mother.
Now I will come for my mother and father.

forever, and you'll be a worthy son to him.
You will always feel him by your side.
I have memories of my father,
I have memories of my father,
But I didn't see my mother at all.
How will I feel with her next to me?
I also never met my mother, Omer.
I only saw her in my dreams.
I used to see her shining like
the sun and shining like the moon.
She warmed my dreams
with her compassion and kindness.
I could feel it in the
breeze caressing my face.
And I could smell her scent in the roses.
I knew that even though I didn't see
her, she always see me.
The place where there is love,
There is a mother in it, Omer.
You will always feel it here
when you look with love.
The son is a piece of the mother's heart.
Some are buried in the dirt, others
They are taken away from
them once they are born.
But a mother's heart
always lives with them.
But a mother's heart
always lives with them.
Before Shahen-Shah was martyred, he talked
about a fire that's burning him for years.
There will be a fire
if this spark is exposed.
Mothers and children hearts
beat at the same time.
Do you know what that fire is?
He was good at keeping secrets.
He clearly buried this
fire with him in the dirt.
Your Highness!
Your Highness.
Your Highness.
The warriors of the
borders in the Nablus
They got killed.
May God accept their martyrdom.
-Amen.

Take care of their families.
This means that the Templars
going to Ashkelon come from Nablus.

When the routes of the
army of Templars become clear,

but I'm going to take you down.

Saladin went, with my uncle's
permission, to rescue the Ashkelonians.

permission, to rescue the Ashkelonians.
Supposedly he is imprisoned
in the Damascus.
But where?
As if that's not enough,
he'll put them on our land as well.

he'll put them on our land as well.
Our glorious Sultan has allowed this.
Let me talk, father, if we
do not eliminate Saladin,
Let me talk, father, if we
do not eliminate Saladin,
Forget about giving him proper punishment,
but he will become stronger than before.
I am a wandering dervish.
Allow me to go to his highness and
pray for him and get prayed for me.

Of course.
Come and share from our table.

May you be good, dispersing these
black clouds from above our heads.
As long as his hands are tied against
Saladin, the clouds will not go away.
-They will increase.
-Gabriel!
-They will increase.
-Gabriel!
I didn't come here as a enemy, I came to
build a friendship with you, leave it.
Don't expose it!
How can you be my friend!
Our enemy is one, Saladin.

The enemy of my enemy is my friend.
You are the arch enemy of the entire
Islamic world and my state.
You are the arch enemy of the entire
Islamic world and my state.
And nothing else.
Do you think this country is yours?
Look at Nur ad-Din
and how he saved his son.
They continue to
fight shoulder to shoulder.
Saladin will attack us. If he succeeds,
everything he has done will be forgotten.

And you cannot prevent this.
But if you tell me what he'll
do, we can stop him together.

You want to make me a spy to save yourself.

Not just for myself, I'm
saying this for you too.
Don't you want Saladin to get
the punishment he deserves?
Don't you want Saladin to get
the punishment he deserves?
Saladin's plan failed.
If we can punish him like he deserves,
It will open the way
for you and your son as well.
Think carefully, Emir Nusr ad-Din.
Think carefully, Emir Nusr ad-Din.
You don't have much time.
Your entire future depends on it.
Let one of you be a thousand,
Your Highness.
So that we can see the days of your rule.

The only way is to stop that army.

There are important people with the army.
But they couldn't figure out who.
When we raid them tomorrow
we will know who they are.
Come in.
Your Honor.
They wanted me to give you this.
Zumrud Hatun.
Fatma Hatun is hurting for her son,
but she seems to have another problem.

Shahen-Shah accompanied
Malik Saladin for years.
Shahen-Shah accompanied
Malik Saladin for years.
But in the end, Saladin caused
the death of Shahen-Shah.
You are right no matter what you say.
But it is a mother's heart.
But it is a mother's heart.
She can't hurt Malik Saladin either.
She worries about him too.
Why does Fatma Hatun
worry about Malik Saladin?
It's her son, is it easy?
It's her son, is it easy?
Is Malik Saladin the
son of Fatma Hatun?
She breastfed him.

When Malik Saladin was an
infant, Fatma Hatun breastfed him.
We also learned about it recently.
You probably didn't
know about it either.
I came here as a merchant
from the land of India.

The days of unity

from Nablus to Ashkelon.

If we can stop them,
We'll back them into a corner.
I was going to ask you for permission
when we confirm the information.
What did you learn?

There are some important people among
them, but we don't know who they are yet.
We know it.
Grand Commander
of the Knights Templar, Blackford.
Grand Commander

And King Baldwin's sister,
Princess Victoria.

for his victory in Ashkelon.

The Grand Commander

Preparations even began
in the Ashkelon.
Preparations even began
in the Ashkelon.
Give me the order, my lord, to
get out on the road immediately.
This is not that easy, Saladin.
The army that will come is the
army of the Grand Commander.
Confronting it is not easy.
If I'm the one who caused all this,
I'll be the one who will make up for it.
For the pilgrimage route.
And for Ashkelon.
Allow me for your son's sake.
My lord.
Our Grand Commander has
sent this with a dove.
What is this important matter that he
sends us a message during his coming?
They caught Zanki spies on the road.
Saladin.
Your plan is clear.
He will attack the army on the road.
What shall we do sir?
Our Grand Commander changed his
direction at night from east to west.
Saladin believes that they
will come from the east.
We will set a trap for
him on the eastern road.

I wonder if we should
dress this up as Saladin?

dress this up as Saladin?
You'll get angrier until tomorrow.
There is no need.
I will deal with him tomorrow personally.
What are you doing here?
You're going to raid Ashkelon.
I will come too.
We're not going to Ashkelon.
But we're going to hit Gabriel big.
So much so that he will give us
Halil and Ashkelon himself.
Then I will also come with you.
Then I will also come with you.
Tell me what to do, I'm ready.
No way, this is hard.
My brother and I made an
agreement with you for Ashkelon.
My brother and I made an
agreement with you for Ashkelon.
If you refuse my presence,
I'll do whatever it takes again.
These are not easy knights.
Your grief is great, I don't
want your life to be in danger.

want your life to be in danger.
While my country and my brother are

it does not matter whether I live or die.
If you are going to save them,

I will come with you too.
Everyone get ready.
Saladin will appear with his men shortly.
Yes, sir.
How did you understand that
they changed their path to the West?
They thought they would overtake us
by changing their route at night.
They thought they would overtake us
by changing their route at night.
But roads are our ears during the day.
And the stars are our eyes at night.
Do not forget, we will not fight them
to kill them, but to take them prisoner.
We need them alive.
Their number is many.
Will we be able to confront them?
Will we be able to confront them?
We will attack from both directions.
Only then can we catch them.
Let's go.
Let's go.
Sir, Saladin and his men
should have arrived by now.
Could there have been a problem?
Shields!

Archers, get ready.
Stop.
Damn it.
Saladin understood that
they had changed their path.

they had changed their path.
He went to attack them from the west.
How could this happen, sir?
Who sent the news then?
I know who he is.
The lives of the Grand Commander
and Victoria are in danger.
We must catch them before
Saladin does anything to them.
Send word to King Baldwin.
We will surround them from both directions.
Quick!
Yes, sir!
Soldiers, get on your horses.
Not even your father can
save you anymore, Saladin.

this from everyone for years.
He hid it even from his wife.
Since Sultan Nur ad-Din
hid something like this
