Altair: A Record of Battles

The Golden Eagle General (1x1)

:

After being newly appointed as Pasha, Mahmut spends some time at a festival with his friend, Ibrahim, and meets Shara, a dancer who Ibrahim is friends with. The next day, Mahmut is called into the Divan to discuss the Balt-Rhein Empire's demands after an empire minister, Franz, is found dead at Türkiye's border. One Pasha, Zağanos, knows this a ploy for the empire to invade Türkiye and proposes a preemptive strike at them. Wanting to avoid war, Mahmut investigates the incident and figures out that the arrows that killed Franz was made by Balt-Rhein. Meanwhile, Mahmut's mentor and foster father, Halil, volunteers to act as a scapegoat for the assassination as Prime Minister Louis (the instigator of the conspiracy) secretly orders his men to kill Halil before he arrives to the empire. Mahmut is able to outwit and apprehend the assassins, presenting them to Emperor Goldbalt XI and resolves the incident without any consequences. Undaunted by this failure, Louis begins manipulating the Araba Tribe to take over Hisar.
