Prince Alaaddin’s unexpected death prompts Murad Khan to retreat to Bursa, succeeded by his son Mehmed. Despite being perceived as immature by European states, Mehmed proves otherwise when faced with Orhan, backed by Byzantium, in his first major battle for the throne. Mehmed’s dream is to conquer Constantinople, despite doubts from those around him, including Çandarlı. Mehmed’s determination leads to clashes with rebels, orchestrated by Çandarlı, resulting in his exile. However, Mehmed remains resolute, destined to return as sultan one day.
