Founder: Orhan
Overview
Bursa is thrown into turmoil as hidden forces move against Sultan Orhan, while Asporça—angered by political schemes and Orhan’s secret İznik plans—launches open rebellion, ordering Nilüfer Hatun’s abduction and attacking Orhan’s soldiers through Flavius. Nilüfer is shaken by the emperor’s marriage plans, Demirhan allies with Germiyanoğlu Mehmet to weaken Orhan and target Alaeddin, and Dursun’s betrayal leads to his imprisonment and Halime’s desperate attempt to stop his escape. As Şahinşah joins Demirhan and Yiğit confronts his father’s corruption, Orhan prepares to face a tightening web of enemies on all sides.
