Osman Bey's expulsion of the ambassador who comes to the tribe to receive the tax causes Togay to break his truce. This causes the Seljuk Sultan, Mesud II, to summon Osman Bey to Konya to punish him in order to protect him from the wrath of the Mongols. Learning that Osman Bey refused to pay taxes to the Mongols from a spy in the tribe, Nikola takes action to increase his influence by taking advantage of the Mongol-Turkish war. Bamsı Bey also kills Petrus after Osman realises Simon was killed by Nikola. Cerkutay, on the other hand, becomes a Muslim under the witness of Sheikh Edebali. Umur Bey develops a plan to attack Togay, which is opposed by Osman. After a confrontation between the pair, Sheikh Edebalı tells Osman Bey that he must marry Malhun Hatun in order to gain the support of Umur Bey and achieve the goal of uniting the Turkish tribes.
