Osman began his journey by forming a friendship with Yorgopolos and the Kayi tribe expanded its influence further during the reign of Osman Ghazi, but some problems will hinder Osman and he must solve it.

The appearance of Adbali and his daughter, Bamsi bid farewell to his son Ibars, while sedition began to appear in the horizon between the Kayi tribe and the castle after the killing of Yorgopolos and Sofia accused Osman of killing him.

Seeing Helen and Sofia running down the aisle, Kalanoz went after her, suspecting her murder partner, Sofia, of getting involved in other things. Osman captured Teokles and the front of Theebali was blocked by Akca Dervis, Pehlivan and Zulfikar Dervis. After the trio, Bala Hatun took Osman to Edebali. I wonder what Edebali will tell Osman. What kind of plan will Dundar and Batur plan to plan for Dundar, whose daughter was kidnapped, and Zohre, who saw Osman as responsible for these events? What's the big surprise waiting for Kalanoz, who's going after Sofia and Helen.

Bala Hatun is kidnapped. Osman is imprisoned in a tent with his hands chained. Learning about Bala Hatun's abduction and outraged Osman's actions surprise everyone.

Yannis succeeded in realizing his bloody plan, raiding the market by the lake and kidnapping Edebali's daughter.

Osman took Bala Hatun's healing from Yannis and exposed Yannis.

Batur, Dündar's son, rescues Osman for a reputation in the tribe after one of Salvador's men is tricked. Edebali declines Osman's proposal leaving him devastated and upset.

Sofia tasks her lover, Kalanoz, to kill Şeyh Edebali but is killed in this attempt by Osman. Bamsı, Osman's loyal companion, converts Salvador to Islam. Salvador's new name is Sıddık.

Osman steals all the tax gold that was being transported illegally to Alişar Bey, the Selçuk Sançak Bey, by the Mongols. Yannis, disguised as a clairvoyant, proves to Alişar that Osman stole the gold. Alişar becomes an enemy of Osman.

Balgay, a Mongol commander, captures Söğüt and kills many women and children. He offers Osman that he will give him the Sançak Beylik and some more land if he was to become loyal to him. Osman rejects Balgay's offer.

Osman, with many difficulties, manages to escape the town with his alps. Balgay meets Yannis and Sofia and they decide to ally against Osman. Balgay even raids the Kayı tribe and has Osman's entire family in hostage until he comes. Konur, one of Osman's alps, also uncovers the fact that one of Balgay's men, Kongar, is his long-lost brother.

Osman, who has met the Aksakals, arrives in the tribe and gives Balgay Genghis Han's dagger in order to leave him and his tribe alone. Osman tasks Salvador to spy for him in Kulucahisar Castle, however, the cunning Sofia still doesn't trust him too much. Meanwhile, the tribe council, mainly Dündar, decides to expel Osman for rebelling against the Mongols. Osman later recaptures Söğüt with his alps.

Dündar is given the Sançak Beylik, angering Alişar, and Osman takes back the dagger he gave to Balgay secretly through an operation at his camp, humiliating him in front of the Mongol leaders. Bala is wounded by some Mongols and now cannot produce a baby.

After he kidnaps Sofia, Osman tells Yannis that he can have his daughter back if he asked Balgay to come to his castle, in the way he would ambush him. The ambush is successful but Batur is killed by Alişar, who has the intention of making Dündar and Osman fight.

Alişar pins the blame on Osman resulting in Dündar attacking Osman during the ambush. In Dündar's attack, Alişar, who is hidden behind the trees, aims at killing Osman with his arrow but accidentally hits Dündar instead. Balgay escapes but Gündüz, Osman's elder brother, successfully becomes the new substitute Bey of the Kayı tribe.

After his meeting with the Aksakals, Osman saves Princess Adelfa, a Byzantine princess being forced to marry Geyhatu. After saving her, he takes her to his tribe and asks Bala and Selcan to take special care of her.

Zöhre, Dündar's devious wife who even had Gündüz kidnapped by Balgay earlier, plans to take Adelfa to Alişar in spite of Bala and Selcan through her adoptive daughter, Burçin.

Kongar reverts to Islam and becomes Göktug after a contract is shown to him that he was actually bought by Balgay from a slave-trader. Meanwhile, Osman is tasked by the Aksakals to save his uncle, Sungurtekin, who was spying for them in the Margarit Monks and his betrayal is now caught, Osman succeeds and embraces his thought-dead uncle.

Osman ambushes Dündar and Zöhre, who were taking their daughter, Aygül, to get her married to Alişar, he sought to show them that he didn't kill Batur. He trusts Aygül that she believed him that he didn't kill Batur, however, as she didn't trust him from the start, when she is let go, she tells Alişar everything and asks him to save her parents. Later, Aygül's parents are freed because of her betrayal.

Balgay captures Osman while Böke, the Mongol commander who informed the monks about Sungurtekin's betrayal, supposedly allies with Balgay to save his life, however, with the help of Göktug, disguised as Kongar, Osman escapes but is severely wounded by arrows.

Göktug continues to spy for Osman at Balgay's camp while Osman recovers with the help of Şeyh Edebali and sees a dream which results in Edebali allowing Osman to marry Bala.

Osman tasks Gündüz and Bala to invade Alişar's mansion where they are successful. Meanwhile, Osman captures Alişar when he is away and forces him to reveal to Dündar that he killed Batur. After seeing this, Dündar begs for forgiveness. Böke also dies in an ambush and Osman takes Alişar to the tribe and is ready to behead him only to be stopped by Geyhatu's commander, Subutay.

Osman ignores Subutay's threats and beheads Alişar. Sofia escapes the Emperor who sentenced Yannis and most of the Margarit Monks to death. Hazal[v], Dündar's first wife, arrives and kills Zöhre for poisoning Osman and Bala's wedding food, which was given to her indirectly through Sofia. Meanwhile, Balgay finds out that Göktug has been betraying him and gives him a potion that messes up his memory and changes him into Kongar again.

Aygül is currently mentally ill after she learnt the truth about Alişar. Sıddık's betrayal is caught by Sofia and thus he is martyred while Subutay allies with Balgay and Sofia to destroy the Kayı tribe in an attack. Osman, who is aware of the attack, prepares for it and therefore, Subutay's plans backfire.

Osman, who escapes Arslan's ambush, ambushes him and Geyhatu's son, Möngke's camp. However, Arslan and Möngke escape.

Arslan tasks Cerkutay, who is alive, to go to Geyhatu, who already hates him because of him being loyal to Balgay, and tell him that Osman captured Möngke. Geyhatu, who is in Konya planning to kill his brother, Argun, is angered over this and allows Cerkutay to live if he is loyal to him. Meanwhile, Söğüt perishes due to the disease spread by Flatyos on the orders of Nikola followed by an explosion done by the same people.

The relations between Savcı and Osman become tenser, Osman is angered when Ertuğrul sends Savcı to explain to Geyhatu that Osman didn't kidnap Möngke. When Savcı arrives at Geyhatu's camp, he is given only a few days to find Möngke otherwise his tribe will be destroyed.

Nikola vows to ally with the powerful Geyhatu in order to destroy the Turks. Ertuğrul also recovers and stops Savcı from becoming the Bey (which is a part of Dündar's plans) while Yavlak allies with Osman to help him against Geyhatu.

Going against his loved ones' advice, after Savcı is tricked and wounded by Flatyos, Osman agrees to surrender Kulucahisar in exchange for Bayhoca. However, he makes a plan and re-conquers the castle immediately after surrendering it, killing Alexander. Meanwhile, a desperate Lena seeks her former lover Flatyos' help, angering Savcı. İdris, Petrus' spy in the Kayı, also begins to set a trap for Bamsı on Petrus' orders, whilst Göktug and Targun return and offer Flatyos an alliance.

As the allied enemies, Nikola, Targun and Petrus continue to stir traps for Osman, Targun ambushes Bala while İdris leads Bamsı into a trap set by Aya Nikola in order to seize the scrolls with Osman's plans for Anatolia. When Osman is alerted, he sets out with half his alps to find Bamsı, only to fall in Nikola's trap and have his tribe pillaged by Targun for the scrolls and a failed attempt by Dündar to become the Bey. Aksu is also killed by Targun before she can confess to Bala about Dündar and Hazal's misdeeds.

However, on Dündar's urging, Savcı and Lena kill Flatyos to avenge their son, inadvertently covering Dündar's tracks. Meanwhile, Petrus allies with Geyhatu's commander Togay, who arrives seeking to annihilate the Bayındır and Kayı tribes.

Togay, revealed to be Baycu Noyan's son, attacks a meeting of Turkmen Beys chaired by Osman in Söğüt, wounding Ömer Bey. Seeking to sow discord amongst the Turks, Togay frames the Dodurga Bey İvaz Bey for the attack, although his innocence is later revealed. Meanwhile, Lena, having given birth to a son named Ertuğrul, accepts Islam with the help of Şeyh Edebali. Suspecting Dündar's treachery, Osman attempts to set a trap for Dündar and Togay, although Dündar outwits Osman, causing Togay to attack and wound Malhun.

Osman captures Suci, one of Togay's henchmen. However, Suci is also Cerkutay's blood brother and friend, compelling Cerkutay to save his friend, leading to the tribe believing that Cerkutay is a traitor.
