Episode 5

As Orhan Bey assumes leadership, unrest brews when Şahinşah Bey, angered by his removal from command despite pledging allegiance, seeks to challenge him. Determined to prove himself, Orhan Bey plans with Abdurrahman and Kanturalı to retake Yarhisar and honor fallen martyrs, marking his first true test. Meanwhile, Flavius, thwarted by the destruction of the Bursa tunnel, turns to violence, plotting an assassination against Osman Bey during Orhan’s sword-girding ceremony. With obstacles cleared in the camp, Orhan Bey advances his ambitions, seizing Bursa and issuing his first threat to Iznik, setting the stage for a new era defined by his uncompromising stance against the Tekfur.
