[Episode 11]

I'm not going anywhere
without getting my brother.

Hit, Saltuk!

-Come on, prince!
-Hold on, you too.

Hold on, hold on, brother.

-Hang on!
-Come on, prince!

My brother!

Brother!

My brother!

His hand, untie!

Hold on, my brother.

Hang on, brother.

My prince!

Let's cut off his arm.

Come on!

Let's cut off his arm.

-My prince!
-Never!

I will not allow that.

That's Temur's horse.

Vargı!

Was Temur in the tent too?

He must have entered without me noticing.

To save Batuga?

But how?

Batuga is chained.

He'll burn too while trying to save him.

-Temur!
-My Ulu Ece!

-Temur!
-My Ulu Ece!

I'm gonna burn my son...

My Ulu Ece!

Let's cut off his arm, my prince!

No.

Never!

Akkız!

We're all going to burn here,
let's cut it off.

My prince!

Come on, prince!

We're all going to burn,
let's cut off his arm.

My prince!

Cut!

My prince, keys!

Come on, let's go.

Prince Temur?

They came out, I saw.

Let's take Ulu Ece to the palace
before anyone notices.

Hurry up!

WESTERN GÖK KHAĞANATE

Oh Gök Tengri!

To my alps who grew up
in their mothers' arms,

got up from the warmth of their spouses,

and came to the khan's hearth,

give peace in your heaven!

May your swords

be your companions on your way
to heaven,

and your friend if you come across

Erlik Khan's bulls.

Let the heroes we hosted
in the khan's home,

be taken to their tombs.

Erect their tombstones.

Any news?

Any news?

Still no word about neither
Balamir Beg nor Batuga, my Khan.

Father,

the fathers of these alps,

they'll bury their sons in the ground.

-At least, Batuga is...
-What?

Alive?

We don't know.

Their fathers know
where their sons are.

I don't know.

Dead or alive?
I don't know.

Find out to which tribe each alp
that went with Balamir belonged.

Then call the clan beys.

Who will die, who will stay,
let me see.

Come on.

Tell your spies.

Before I reach the palace,

if they don't find Batuga,

I will k*ll all of them.

Akkız?

Akkız? Akkız?

You're burning.

Akkız.

Batuga.

You are fine.

-But you got a fever...
-Your hand.

Your hand, they didn't cut it.

They didn't cut it.

Who were gonna cut it?

What are you talking about, Akkız?

Akkız where are we?
How did we get here?

-I do not know.
-How can you not know?

The fire.

They shot flaming arrows at the tent.

It burned everywhere, then...

Then, darkness.

Stop, wait, tell it from
the beginning.

Tai Zu kidnapped me.

Tutkun was there, then...

He told me it was a trap.

He took Tutkun.

He knocked me out.

Then, after that...

Then...

They sent me word.

And we came to save you.

As I entered the cage to unshackle,

Tai Zu locked us up.

And then, he said,

"I will k*ll your friends".
Sırma! Yaman!

Stop, wait, wait Akkız!

Water, you need to drink water.

Water.

Drink water.

Drink.

Akkız.

How did we get here?
Who brought us?

We brought.

Let him go.

It will take him some time
to digest what he just learned.

What if he tells Alpagu Khan?

He won't say.

Prince Batuga's lie...

luckily it's Prince Temur
who found out.

If it was someone
faithful to the Gök,

they'd have had him beheaded.

What about you?

Would you have me beheaded too?

Since the day they put
a bowstring on your neck,

I lost my loyalty to Gök.

I am not affiliated with anyone.

That's why he allied
with the Dağ Khan,

and betrays the Gök.

If I give a hug...
Will you allow me?

Bless your mind, my prince!

Bless your mind!

GÖK HORDE
Capital of The Gök Khağanate

Temur!

My Ulu Ece.

Temur?

Is he saved?

He is okay, my Ulu Ece,
don't worry.

Thank Gök Tengri!

I was going to burn my own son.

Drink it.

Akkız...

Batuga...

They're dead, aren't they?

Tai Zu had chained Batuga.

Prince Temur and Saltuk
wouldn't leave without him.

Thus, both Akkız and Batuga were saved.

Damn it.

How did Prince Temur
and Saltuk Beg find out,

and come to save Batuga?

That Akkız brought them.

We didn't think she would bring help.

How did she reach Temur and Saltuk
while on the run?

Yibek.

My Ulu Ece.

Thank you.

What if they tell Alpagu that
the Chinese kidnapped Batuga?

What if they talk about
the fake letter, the stamp?

Alpagu will immediately learn

that China set a trap

for that woman called Tılsım
years ago.

Tai Zu will throw you in front of
the Khan without thinking for a second.

He'll say you're the real traitor.

He'll say that he and Vargı
set a trap for Tılsım together.

Even if Alpagu Khan takes my life,

I will never give your name,
my Ulu Ece.

I know.

But I cannot be at peace.

What are we going to do then?

Akkız has explained

everything to Saltuk and Prince Temur.

What if one of them tells Alpagu Khan?

As long as Tutkun is with the Chinese,

Prince Temur will not speak.

Neither Akkız nor Saltuk should talk.

If they talk, we're done.

What are we gonna do?

We will find and k*ll them both
immediately.

All right, it's done.

Have some food.

Let me go before it's too late.
Yaman and Tutkun,

and Sırma, we don't know if they're
still prisoners or if they escaped.

No.

If Tai Zu captured them,

you cannot fight while
sick as well as hungry.

Eat some.

I don't understand.

Why would Tai Zu lock us up

and then give us the key?

I'll tell you.

Have some food, and I'll tell you.

Akkız.

Eat and let's find out what's
on Prince Batuga's mind.

Tai Zu,

did not know that
I would inform Temur.

He thought my brother,

wouldn't leave the burning tent
without saving me...

He threw the key and fled.

China doesn't want to k*ll
their son-in-law.

It wasn't the Chinese
who brought the key.

It was someone of big stature.

-Vargı Beg?
-I don't know.

He was well covered.

We will find out.

We will learn everything one by one.

And then we'll go tell Alpagu Khan.

But first we have to save
Yaman, Sırma and Tutkun.

Or Tai Zu will k*ll them.

But first, have they
escaped, or got captured ?

We have to find that out.

Saltuk Beg.

Go to the Dağ tribe.

-I'll go too.
-Stop.

Before even getting better...

You inhaled a lot of smoke.
You need to rest at least a night.

After all, Cholpan Khan
exiled you from her tribe.

She tried to expel you even
while you were dying.

Will she receive you now?
Are you going to fight my aunt in this state?

Prince Batuga is right,
I'll go to the Dağ tribe and see.

I will check, but...

what if they're not there?
What if they are held c*ptive?

If they have scents in the Kayrık forest,
Börte will follow the tracks.

Tell Kunata to bring Börte too.

And bring me a robe of Sırma.

I'll be in the Dağ camp in the morning.

You come to the Kayrık forest
at sunrise.

Prince Batuga,

good thing you fooled us for years.

For the first time,
I'm glad I was fooled.

Well, there is
one of us who is glad.

Come on, get going.

What did I do to you?

Answer me, Batuga!
What did I do to you?

Did I ill-treat you like my mother?

Did I despise you like a Kaya?

Did I put a bowstring on your neck
like my father?

What did I do?

Why didn't you trust me?

Why did you hide it from me
for years? Speak!

All these years you could talk.

Don't be silent now, speak,
answer me!

It wasn't that we didn't trust you.

It was the law.

The penalty for lying to the Khan
is death.

If they found out I was sane,

they would take my life instantly.

And if they found that you knew,
they'd take your life too.

You were protecting me.
Right?

For years, I thought
I was protecting you.

I wish you hadn't lied to me,
Batuga.

I wish the law had taken my life,

and you longed for me for years,

instead of I longing for you,
my brother.

From now on,

if we live,

there's no more longing.

But Temur...

I'm not going to apologize to you

for thinking about my brother's life,

From now on,

no brotherhood...

nor longing, Prince Batuga.

It can be used with one hand too.

Is that so?

Look, like this.

Hah, grasp, now stand aside.

To reduce the space?

Yes, smart boy!

Set your left foot firm.

His left leg is lame.

How would he set it firm?

Fine, do this one.
That would do.

Yeah, like that.
Let's do it together.

One.

Two.

Three.

One.

Two.

Three.

Come on, let's see, Gök prince.

Let's see what skills you have.

You've been practicing all night.

Won't you get tired of training me
before fully recovering?

Saltuk Beg told to arrive at sunrise.

Until then, I have to keep my mind off.

Otherwise I'll lose my mind
thinking about my friends.

I mean training you is an excuse.

So you're using me.

If they are c*ptive,

would Tai Zu t*rture them?

Yaman, Yaman.

You've been trying
to keep her alive all night.

Are you not tired?

We told you we don't
know anything, Chinese demon.

Are you too stupid to understand?

Who told Akkız that the
letter was fake, Yaman?

We don't know.

Akkız,

from whom did she get
this information?

I said we don't know.

Prince Batuga,

how did he get in the palace
when he was missing?

Nobody saw him.

Is there a secret passage, Yaman?

Akkız knew the passage,
and got Batuga through it, right?

Answer me, save the girl.

Otherwise, you will hold
the noose of your beloved.

Akkı--,

From whom did Akkız
get the information?

Who else knows about the fake letter?

Stop, I'll say,
okay, I'll say it.

Don't!

If you speak, I swear,
I will not marry you.

You will marry.

You can't be without me, Dağ girl.

You think so.

I will definitely do it,

you'll crawl saying "Sırma! Sırma!"

You may do,

but you know we can't get married
if I don't talk either, right?

We will die.

Let's die.

At least we'll be together in the heaven.

Alright.

You heard it, Chinese.

As my lady commands!

I will not talk.

That's my valiant sweetheart!

I'm not so fond of Confucius.

He keeps trying to shape society.

But I love one of his quotes.

Confucius says:

"There are three things
that are dangerous to society:

Intelligent people being emotionless,

emotional people being ineffective,

effective people being unintelligent."

You are emotional but ineffective people.

Let me know when you succumb
to the weakness of emotions.

I'll come and listen to your answers.

Don't you know for real?

Sırma?

Yaman?

Won't you talk even if you know?

THE DAĞ TRIBE

Uzlu Beg is coming!

Uzlu Beg is coming!

Welcome, Uzlu Beg.

Alpagu Khan summons the council,

in the Western Gök Khaganate.

I heard.

He sent me a falcon too.

We were getting ready to go.

Why is he summoning us there?

To appoint a yabgu

to the throne I destroyed.

Yabgu ceremony is held
at the palace.

Why would he invite us
to the Western Gök Khanate?

We'll see.

Do you think he will make
Prince Kaya the yabgu?

I will oppose him.

The boy is both Russian and immature.

Let give him to a shaman first,

and see,

if he can be Yabgu.

We'll see over time.

Did you talk to Koçkar Beg?

Will he give us his alps?

I talked to him, he will not.

He says it would not be right

to rebel against the Gök Khan
for the yabgu we judged.

You try talking to him, but...

[The Gök law-enforcer is coming!]

[The Gök law-enforcer is coming!]

The Gök law-enforcer?

Cholpan Khan,

Saltuk Beg is coming.

The Saltuk Beg
you k*lled with a sword?

So I didn't succeed in k*lling him.

You stay here,
don't let him see you.

We'll leave when he's gone.

What are you doing here?

Why?

Are you worried that Balamir was upset

to find out that you had thrust
the sword into the ground and not me?

Saltuk.

If Balamir finds out about us,

he'll find a way to send word
to Alpagu Khan.

And Alpagu,

will take your head.

Are you worried about me, lady?

Don't be.

I found it next to my sword.

You dropped it.

I didn't drop it.

What is Uzlu Beg doing here?

Are you recruiting allies
to join forces with Balamir

to divide the country?

-Why are you here?
-I have no business with you.

I'm gonna see Künata.

If you have business
with one of my subjects,

it means you have business
with me too, Saltuk.

Cholpan.

Either you get out of my way,

or at the cost of burning myself,

I will tell Alpagu Khan
where to find Balamir.

From now onward,

is that so, Saltuk?

Will you keep threatening me?

You are gonna lie.

And I will threaten too.

So be it.

So it is.

Künata.

Any news about Sırma and Yaman?

-Not till now.
-Damn it.

Batuga,

were you able to save him?

We saved Batuga.

But I think they captured Sırma and Yaman.

Akkız told to bring
a robe of Sırma to trace,

She also said to
bring the wolf along.

Alright.

This is Sırma's.

Let's go.

Come, Börte.

Come on, Saltuk.

Take me to Akkız.

Let's go.

WESTERN GÖK KHAĞANATE

My khan.

Welcome, my lady.

You are welcome.

Don't be mad at me, father.

I'm gonna be the bride of
a disabled prince.

Aren't you upset at all?

My khan.

Where is Temur?

Why didn't he come?

Still chasing that Dağ girl?

The Dağ girl, my Khan?

That book is closed,
Temur is after Batuga.

Fine.

Fine.

Let him go find and bring his brother.

Let him bring, so that,

the stone in my heart will be lifted.

Wherever he is,

I will pray to Gök Tengri
to protecting him, Alpagu.

Alright.

What happened to that seat?

What could happen?
Madman Balamir smashed it.

He didn't just shred it, mother.

He took most of the Alps.

And put the disobedient to sword.

Balamir has gone completely mad.

Wandering around like
a stray arrow without a target.

I'm afraid that'll come
and hit you, my Khan.

The blood to be spilled won't
stay in the veins, lady.

If it's going to spill,
one of ours will.

But we'll take precautions anyway.

We will not turn a blind eye

by sparing the enemy.

The yabgu position of the
Western Gök Khanate is unoccupied.

That's why I summoned you.

The convention will be held today.

I will choose the new yabgu.

Well thought out, my Khan.

The yabgu title

is the closest position
to the khan's title.

It cannot be left empty.

Who are you going to make the yabgu?

Prince Kaya.

Bless you.

I hope you become a
better yabgu than my father.

Your highness?

What happened to Akkız?

Was Prince Batuga with her?

My son!

Börte, my boy!

Good boy!

There is nothing left of the tents.

They even destroyed the
traces of fire.

What does this mean?

It means someone is there.

Archers.

Draw your bows.

Hold on, hold on.

My Prince Temur.

What are you looking for here?

Looking for traces.

But aren't they Chinese?

They left no trace.

It's okay son,
he is one of us.

Künata.

Come on, sniff, son, sniff it.

Where is Sırma, huh? Where?

Let's go!

Go!

Let's follow.

We will attack
when Prince Temur leaves.

To the horses!

-Yaman.
-Sırma?

-Leave it now.
-What?

What else, idiot? The rope!

Talking didn't work for you.

Your mind is clouded.

Are we not going to die someway?

I said let's get to heaven
as soon as possible,

and rest there.
Did I say something bad?

And you'll massage my sore arms,
in heaven.

And you'll bring game meat.

We'll eat it.

I am hungry.

Have you gone crazy?

You are going to die on purpose.

Don't be so jealous, Tutkun.

Most likely, you too will come
with us to that death.

Tell them whatever you know, now!

Give that Chinese
whatever he wants about Akkız.

Isn't Akkız the
double-headed wolf's claw?

Didn't this girl try to
take down Alpagu Khan by herself?

Can't she protect herself?

Why are you shouting?

Shut up, someone will hear!

Damn it!

May centipedes eat your tongue, Tutkun!

Wow.

Wow.

Wow, wow, wow...!

So that famous claw,

was Akkız, huh?

My khan, the beys of the congress
have arrived.

Let them come.

You saw a yabgu who despises
his own throne

worthy of the throne of Gök.

So I dethroned that yabgu.

I brought one who will not...

betray the Gök Khanate.

From now on,

the yabgu post of the Western Gök Khaganate,
betrayed by my traitor brother Balamir,

is entrusted

to my son, Prince Kaya.

We bow our necks
to the command of the khagan.

However,

Prince Kaya,
is not experienced enough to be

the Yabgu of
the Western Gök Khanate, my khan.

Is he not?

If he is not,

how does he know that you
supported Balamir's rebellion?

I have,

no allegiance to anything

other than the Gök Khanate
and the customs.

Prince Kaya is wrong.

You will call me 'Kaya Yabgu'.

Since you have no allegiance to

anything other than the Gök Khanate
and the customs,

why do you still carry
the dagger that Balamir gave you,

Uzlu Beg?

An old gift, a habit.

I'll throw it away now.

Do you accuse me because of this,
Prince Kaya?

Not just that, of course.

The traitor Balamir is raising
an army to divide the state.

He raided the Western Gök Khanate.

He took the alps faithful to him
with him, and slaughtered the rest.

You don't have half of your alps
either.

Where are they, Uzlu Beg?

Did you...

want to see Balamir as the khan,

and voluntarily give your alps?

You have forgotten, let me remind you.

The penalty for
treason against the state,

and the penalty for
lying to the Khan,

is death.

If it's my brother, I will not forgive.

If it's my son, I will not forgive.

Even if it's my wife,
I will not forgive.

The yabgu of the Western Gök Khaganate,

Prince Kaya.

Bless your duty,
may your reign be eternal.

Now,

bow before your yabgu.

Is she here, my boy?

There is no one.

Börte.

This is Sırma's.

For a moment I thought
I'd find her dead.

This is a good thing.

It means they're still alive.

Akkız, do not despair.

Don't be hopeless.

But we don't know where they are.

We don't know where they went.

We're wasting time.
Don't you see?

-I am going.
-Where are you going, prince?

To the palace.

I will crush that snake Tai Zu's head
and make him talk.

Since Börte couldn't follow the tracks,

obviously,

they hid the scent.

The demon Tai Zu even thought of that.

Let's go with Börte.

Maybe he can smell them or something.

It's certain they can't be found
by searching the whole land.

You can't find by searching.

True. But,

those who find, are those who seek.

Börte, come on, son, come.

What's this?

A Chinese-made...

t*rture device.

Did they tortured my friends?

What's this?

A letter from Tai Zu.

What does it say?

"If you want to see your poor friends,
come to the palace.

We will make a deal with you,...

...claw."

China found out you are the claw.

They did.

Let's not tell Batuga.

He'll be terrified now.

Fear for yourself.
Why should you fear for Batuga?

I'm not afraid, I'm worried.

We're under attack!

Akkız!

Come on.

Are they Chinese?

Doesn't seem like it, but...

Come on son.

...I am not sure.

All I know is,
they won't stop until they finish you.

Let's see who finishes whom.

Thank you, my Prince Temur.
You saved Börte's life.

Weren't you gone, my prince?

I had not gone far.

I saw Künata and Börte.

I came when Börte growled.

Come on.

Let's get back to the cave, and
you can have a long talk with Batuga.

I have nothing
to talk about with Batuga.

He didn't talk to me all this time,
let him not talk from now on.

What Batuga went through
could collapse the mountains,

and split the sky, my prince.

Your brother obviously saved you
from lying to the law.

Akkız.

He lied to the law.

Either he loses his neck, or I.

Don't you understand we'll
die if the secret is revealed?

He hasn't spoken to me
in fifteen years.

He doesn't have to
talk to me anymore.

Did you find

Yaman and Sırma?

We traced, but they were
taken away when we got there.

Well, didn't Tai Zu leave a mark,
something to lure you in?

No.

Are you okay, then?

I'm fine.

But unless I know if
my friends are well...

We will find them, don't worry.

We can think of something.

Don't worry.

His mind is alright.

He has thought of something.

Do you want to take it back?

I put that sword there so
I wouldn't slit your neck.

It won't be good for you
if I take it.

Come on, we have to go back
to the palace.

Get ready, let's go.

The Chinese are in the palace.

Isn't it dangerous?

Father has gone mad out of worry.

That's more dangerous.

Come on.

It takes time to get used to.

After all, because of Tutkun,

China has put us in trouble.

Should you not return to the palace?

China kidnapped you once.

-The same once again...
-We'll be back eventually anyway.

We also need to reach
sSırma and Yaman somehow.

Let's go and live our destiny.

We're returning to the palace.

We'll return, but...

until I find Sırma, Yaman,
and Tutkun,

we can't tell my father
that China kidnapped me.

We can't, my prince.

If we say it,
Tai Zu will k*ll them both.

-We'll find a way.
-We will.

Come on.

GÖK HORDE
Capital of The Gök Khağanate

-Çalayır.
-My khan.

I have made you temporary
Tayangu in charge.

-I'm honored, my Khan.
-Hear well.

Prince Kaya's yabgu title ceremony
will be held tomorrow.

Let the preparations begin.

Your wish is my command,
my Khan.

Come on.

My khan.

Is it an appropriate decision
to make Çalayır the tayangu?

My lady.

No office should be left vacant
in the palace.

You know it too.

Çalayır is someone who knows everything
in the palace better than anyone else.

What is written there?

My khan, father.

At your command, I had my spies
search for Batuga, and...

And?

They searched the whole steppe.

But they couldn't find him,

neither alive nor dead.

Any trace of Akkız?

No.

Kaya, what did I tell you?

Didn't I say, if your spies don't find Batuga
before I reach the palace, I'll k*ll them all?

Behead them all.

I can't contain Alpagu
since that Dağ girl left.

And the absence of Batuga.

I'm about to pray to Gök Tengri,
that Temur brings Batuga.

Is it done Vargı?

Please give me the good news.

Say Akkız is dead,
tell me the job is over.

My Ulu Ece.

She's not dead.

Our men could have k*lled
Saltuk and Akkız, but...

when Prince Temur joined
the fight with them...

Did your men attack in
the presence of Temur, Vargı?

He was gone, Ulu Ece.
He came later.

Stop it!

We cannot get away with
excuses and buts. Can't you see?

If Akkız tells Alpagu everything,
we're done.

Is it so hard to k*ll this girl?

My Ulu Ece, I made you chamomile tea-

I don't want.

Come in.

Ulu Ece.

You told me to inform when
Tai Zu arrives.

He just arrived at the palace.

Okay, Çalayır. Thanks.

Leave.

Now go to Tai Zu immediately,

and learn what they'll do about Akkız.

If Akkız talks,
that will be our end.

But more importantly, Yibek...

Tılsım will win.

I'll lose Alpagu.

Such a thing will never happen.

Gök Tengri won't allow it.

Summon the shamaness.

Let her burn incense,
perform a ritual.

Now.

Vargı.

Welcome, my friend!

What is the reason for this joy?

Master Tai Zu got a very surprising
piece of information, Vargı Beg.

But...

before I give you this information,
I would like to ask you something.

Who burned the tents, Vargı?

You ask me that, priest?

The last thing I saw was
you passing out.

Then they knocked me out too.

I didn't see who burned it.

I've come to ask you about this.

I trusted your plots.

But nothing changed.

Akkız, who knows of that letter,
is still alive and at large,

my life is still in danger.

How could this be, priest?

If that fire had not started,

Akkız would have been
in my hands now.

And I would have learned
who else knew about the fake letter.

It's very offensive that you said
my plot didn't work.

There is no point in discussing
it now.

Vargı Beg.

Akkız was
the double-headed wolf's claw.

What?

Are you sure?

That Dağ girl, whom Temur
ran away with, said so.

If Akkız wants Yaman and Sırma,

she will duly come to my feet.

GÖK HORDE
Capital of The Gök Khağanate

My khan.

I've been looking for you
in the whole palace.

What are you doing here?

Why did you look for me
in the whole palace?

Didn't it occur to you that
I would be in my missing son's room?

I know you are sad.

It hurts because Batuga is missing.

But I learned something
that'll brighten your spirits.

The double-headed wolf's claw,
was Akkız.

Where did you learn this from?

It's been on my mind
ever since Kırçiçek said it.

So I told my spies to follow Akkız.

Forget that you leaned this.

-What?
-You heard what I said.

Nobody will know
that Akkız is the claw.

The law shall never find out.

You knew!

That's why you exiled her
from the palace.

All this anger,

burning, destroying everything,
was because of this!

I don't understand you.

What's with this girl, Alpagu?

Why don't you judge the girl
who shot you, and take her life?

You hung even the fake one
by a string for a month.

Why would you spare Akkız's life?

My lady.

I've had a lot of love for you
all these years.

My respect is endless.

You glorified me.

You stood by me.

But I don't want you to say
a single word on this matter.

Otherwise, I will erase
all these years, with one pen.

Batuga's absence
already burns my soul.

Let's not burn yours too.

As you see fit, my Khan.

Alpagu will not k*ll Akkız.

He even forbade talking about her.

What are we gonna do?

Is Tai Zu sure that Akkız will come?

He said she will come
to save her friends' lives.

I think she'll come too.

Go tell Tai Zu, that...

there is a way to get rid of Akkız.

What is that?

Prince Batuga!

Praise Gök Tengri!

Batuga.

Batuga.

-My son.
-My brother, open your eyes.

My brother.

My son.

Batuga.

I lost my mind,

worrying that something
happened to you.

Thinking you died in a corner,
in this mindless state of yours,

my heart was devastated

My khan.

If you allow me, can I hug him too?

Go on.

I miss you so much,
my secret-keeper.

Where did Temur go?

We've been on horseback for days,
my Khan.

He's gone to get fresh.

Where did you find Batuga?

We found him in an inn
close to the Silk Road.

We think Balamir's men
had kidnapped him.

Balamir is doing
mistakes upon mistakes.

He's digging his own grave.

I will take his life myself
wherever I find him.

I'll show him what it's like
to bother an innocent mindless person.

I'm glad you're here, son.

GÖK HORDE
Capital of The Gök Khağanate

I came up with an idea to
get rid of Akkız.

What is this idea?

[Go tell Tai Zu, that...]

[there's a way to get rid of
Akkız.]

Where are the Dağ-ians?

What did you do to them?

Which Dağ-ians?

We're hiding just Tutkun.

Look at me, you fraud of a priest,

I'll hide you in such a place that

even your emperor won't find it
if he came.

Speak, do you understand me?

Answer me.

Answer me!

Tutkun, I understand.

Why did you abduct Batuga?

Did we abduct Batuga?

-What a shame!
-You Chinese!

Don't drive me crazy.

Were you trying to lure Akkız?

Did Akkız put these lies
into your head?

Akkız didn't do anything in my head.

But you!

If someone hadn't come
and given the key to the chain,

you were going to burn us alive.

Why?

Answer me.

Why?

You kidnapped Akkız's friends.

You kidnapped my love.

And now you are sitting,

sipping your crazy tea here.

Why?

Why did you do it?

Answer me. Where are they?

Let's say we kidnapped
Prince Batuga.

Why don't you
go tell your father, the khan?

Looks like we need to remind you
of someone.

Lady Tutkun sent you her love.

If,

you go to Alpagu Khan,

and say the things you just told us,

this will be the last time
you see lady Tutkun's hair.

I've said it before.
I will say it again.

Next time, you will see
lady Tutkun's bloody heart.

Someone helped.

Gave the key to Batuga's chains.

Who was it?

Vargı, certainly.

Vargı!

Why did you do such a thing?

Who gave the orders?

I did not.

I don't know who did it, either.

Sounds like you're lying to me.

Who are you trying to protect?

All the three devils are here!

Why are you surprised?

Didn't you leave a note so
the claw would come to you?

I did.

But I wasn't expecting it so soon.

Or so quiet.

I didn't expect you to come
into my room.

How did you get in the palace,
claw?

You wanted to make a deal
to release my friends.

What is it?

Get to the point without delay,
you mean.

Prince Kaya's initiation as yabgu
will be in the throne room tomorrow.

And you will show up at
that ceremony,

and admit that you are the claw.

If you appear
in front of the council,

Alpagu Khan will k*ll you.
And if you don't do it,

we'll k*ll your friends.

Not just Yaman and Sırma,

first of all, Saltuk,

then, we'll k*ll
the disabled prince.

We took your friends to China.

It's impossible to find them.

And you can't protect Batuga
all the time.

If you don't appear in front of the
congress during the yabgu's initiation,

and confess that you're the claw,

we will t*rture and k*ll them all.

If I confess that I'm the claw,

how can I be sure
they will be released?

I swear on behalf of
the Emperor of China.

They'll live as long as they are silent.

We thought that you too will live
as long as you stay quiet, but...

we understood that

you will neither stay quiet
till you die,

nor will you stop!

So, Dağ girl?

Are you dying, or Sırma?

Are you dying,

or Yaman?

Are you dying,

or Batuga?

Are you sacrificing yourself,

or not?

Balamir, what are you doing?

What are you doing, Balamir?

Are you sitting on my throne, now?

What could I do?

Should I have stood while waiting?
There was no place to sit.

Alpagu Khan made his intentions clear.

He beheaded Uzlu Beg.

You are here,

sitting on my throne...

cracking jokes.

I'm so sorry, he was a good man.

But before he died,
we got half of his men.

We made that move just in time.

Now it'll be too hard to gather
the clan chieftains with us, Balamir.

Alpagu Khan intimidated them all.

Out of fear, the beys

will bow to the khan,

and stick close to his skirt.

My brother really knows what to do.

But they are all my father's tactics.

Come to your senses, Balamir.

Stop this careless attitude.

I risked my head,

for this job,
I risked the future of my tribe!

Don't forget, Cholpan Khan.

I am another son of
the same father.

I can gather forty foxes around,

without their tails touching
each other.

My Khan,
Yula Beg has arrived.

The first of the forty foxes,

son of Uzlu Beg,

k*lled by Alpagu Khan:

Yula Beg.

I'm so sorry for your father.

May your wounds heal.

May your bloodline expand.

Thank you.

May your wound be healed.

May your family expand.

Thanks.

We wish to be with you

in avenging your father.

If you intent to take revenge,
of course.

If you don't take it,
and leave it with Alpagu Khan,

that's different.

The only thing I will
leave to Alpagu Khan is,

my sword plunged into his bosom!

Then, you will be flood-tide
on Alpagu Khan,

and ebbtide to us, Termis.

Alpagu Khan not only k*lled
my father.

Without caring for the value
of a yabgu like you,

he declared a prince, who
sucked Russian milk, a yabgu.

That's why, I'm friend to you,

and enemy to him.

-You're welcome among us.
-Welcome, son.

I can't take replace your father
who is in heaven, but,

consider me more than your friend.

Thank you.

GÖK HORDE
Capital of The Gök Khağanate

What are you doing here again?

Nothing.

How many days have you been gone?

Akkız said you were kidnapped.
I was worried too.

Are you okay?

I'm fine, thanks.

You are wounded.

Let go of my hand, Kırchichek.
I'm good.

First lesson, disabled prince.

When a girl holds your hand,
you can't say let go.

Leave.

Get out of my son's room.

Didn't I tell you there
won't be a wedding?

Son, come.

Come sit down.

I had a heart long ago.

Tılsım turned it to stone.

It turns out she didn't
succeed in it.

I understood that in your absence.

It hurt so much that,

I thought it would melt
and evaporate.

Glad you came, son.

Welcome.

When you were gone, I was glad you
didn't have a mind. You know?

I would tell Tılsım that
Batuga has a great mind.

He has a deep heart.

The suffering of such people
is inevitable.

But your mind is gone,
you did not suffer.

Maybe you didn't even feel it
when you were kidnapped.

You did not, did you?

The bow on your neck was
your last pain, right?

Just as I was leaving,
my father came to my room.

I kept you waiting a while, sorry.

Did you cry?

[Are you dying, or Batuga?]

No.

Alright.

One who is a khan is
a skilled swordsman.

And you must learn to
hold a sword really well.

Even if I can't always be
by your side.

Why wouldn't you always be
by my side?

In case I can't, I said.

Akkız.

Khan should master the sword well,
true.

But do you know what I still need?

What?

You.

I understood when I saw
you practicing.

You are naturally talented.

I mean a hand that draws pictures
wields a sword well.

But you have to learn well.

Come on, let's train.

Akkız, something's up with you.

No.

No.

Yes.

You have no hope.

It's my first time seeing you
hopeless.

The thing called hope

is bad thing.

When a person ends, he learns
how many insects live in the soil.

Is your hope over?

No yet about you!

What about yourself?

My hope for you won't end.

Will you lose hope on yourself?

Akkız.

Come on.

You,

will be a very good Khan!

But you have to fight very well.

Come on!

Do what I'm doing.

Block.

Strike.

Strike.

GÖK HORDE
Capital of The Gök Khağanate

Eastern Begs, Western Begs!

Gök Beys who greet the sun
when it rises!

Beys of the land that sends it off
at sunset!

The reason we are gathered here,

is to celebrate the ascension
of our new yabgu.

Descending from Gök Khan,
son of Oğuz Khan,

from the line of Bayundur,
who ruled over the tribes,

and turned gold into coin,
copper to knuckle, and iron to anvil,

prince of Alpagu Khan,

Prince Kaya!

From now on,

You are the Yabgu of
the Western Gök Khaganate.

[Bless your position, may you live forever!
May your homeland be strong! Long live Alpagu Khan!]

[Bless your title! may you live forever!
May your homeland be strong! Long live Alpagu Khan!]

Akkız.

What happened?

Künata found out something
about Sırma and Yaman.

He waits for you outside.

What?

Come, come on.

You go.

I'll fetch Saltuk Beg and come.

The two-headed wolf's claw...

it's me.

Catch her.

The half of my destiny...

We are the two children of
a destiny, who never grew up.

An orphan and a half-orphan.

We built a dream.

We dreamed of bringing the world to
its knees with two wooden swords.

But I made a mistake.

I shot the khan.

For you to make our dream come true...

I have to pay for my mistake.

Archers!

It was destined,

that I'll die and you'll walk,
my Prince Batuga.

Walk, so that,

the Turks won't fight each other.

May they not fall,
fooled by China's silk.

Walk, so that the tribes will be
at peace,

and brothers stick together.

Walk, so that...

the Dağ and Gök...

Ay and Gün come together.

Walk, so that the Turk may walk too.

And spread throughout the world.

Bring the world to its knees,
Batuga.

My last wish is that

you make the Turks one.

Stop!

What have you done?

I'll do anything for you.

Release Akkız!

You!

You are not disabled!

All these years,

you lied to the khan, and the law!

sh**t him!

I demand a trial!

You can't k*ll the claw!

She's my witness!

sh**t him, I said!

You k*lled my mother...

without a trial!

Are you going to

k*ll your son without a trial too?

Alpagu Khan?

Father.

Alpagu...

Father.

How could...

you do this to me.

The law...

owes me justice!
