This episode didn’t just close a chapter—it opened a war that will shake the entire region. Episode 10 of Kuruluş: Orhan felt different. It wasn’t loud. It wasn’t flashy. It was painful, slow, and real. And from this point on, the series will never feel the same again. Osman Gazi’s farewell, Orhan Bey’s rise, and the enemies waiting in the shadows all signal one truth:The calm is over.
Why Episode 10 Felt So Real
Osman Gazi’s final moments were not heroic in the traditional sense. He was:
-
Weak
-
Ill
-
Bedridden
And that is exactly what made it powerful.
History tells us:
-
Osman became seriously ill
-
Orhan conquered Bursa
-
The news reached Osman
-
Shortly after, he passed away
-
He had already said: “Bury me in Bursa”
That exact will was shown on screen. This wasn’t fantasy. This was history. Some viewers asked: “Why show Osman so fragile?” Because if the young, warrior Osman had died like this, no one would believe it. Viewers would keep waiting for a miracle. Showing him tired, slow, and fading helps the audience accept reality. It’s emotional psychology—and it worked.
Episode 11 Trailer: War Has Officially Begun
The moment Timurtash sent severed heads to Orhan Bey, everything changed.
That was not a warning.
That was a declaration of war.
From now on:
-
No peace
-
No treaties
-
No negotiations
Only swords will speak.
Two Villains, One End
Episode 11 trailer makes something clear:
Two enemies are about to fall.
-
Hector
-
Saroz
They survived the last episode—but not the next. Orhan Bey kills Hector himself.
Clean. Final. Without hesitation. Saroz’s end is also confirmed through Dafne’s words. Two villains. One episode. One turning point.
Orhan and Asporça: War Brings Them Closer
Amid the chaos, one softer moment appears.
Orhan Bey rescues Asporça Hatun from a deadly trap.
From this point:
-
Their bond grows
-
Trust deepens
-
War pulls their hearts closer
And history confirms it: Asporça Hatun will become Orhan Bey’s wife—soon.
The Arrival of a New Villain: Demir Khan
A new face changes everything.
Demir Khan enters the story, played by Mustafa Üstündağ.
From the trailer alone, you can feel:
-
Pride
-
Power hunger
-
Rage
His words say it all: “We won’t leave Bursa to this shepherd Orhan.” He looks like a Mongol—but he isn’t. He is Muslim by name only. Just like past traitors in history. The most dangerous part? He is already working with the Mongols. Two enemies.
One storm.
Demir Khan and Dursan: Blood Will Be Tested
Demir Khan is connected to Dursan. Soon, the story will announce:
-
Karesi Bey is dead
-
A power vacuum is created
-
Demir wants the throne
History offers a dark version:
Demir kills his own brother, Dursan. Orhan takes revenge. Karesi lands join the Ottomans. But the series may choose a different path. In the trailer, Dursan looks:
-
Disturbed
-
Worried
-
Changed
This feels like foreshadowing.
Two Possible Futures for Dursan
Scenario One: Tragedy
-
Demir kills Dursan
-
Orhan declares war
-
Karesi is conquered
-
Halime is destroyed emotionally
Dark. Painful. Historically brutal.
Scenario Two: Unity
-
Demir kills another brother
-
Dursan survives
-
He reveals: “I am Karesi prince”
-
He gives loyalty to Orhan
-
The emirate joins without bloodshed
This version shows:
-
Unity over swords
-
Faith over betrayal
-
Strength through brotherhood
Personally, Dursan’s death does not feel certain. The story seems to be pushing toward survival, revelation, and unity.
Orhan Bey’s New Era: Three Fronts of War
The story is now entering a new phase.
Phase 1 – Completed
-
Bursa conquered
-
Osman Gazi gone
Phase 2 – Beginning Now
-
Turkish beyliks
-
Internal Muslim conflicts
Phase 3 – Coming Soon
-
İznik campaign
-
New Byzantine Tekfur
Orhan Bey will fight:
-
Byzantines
-
Mongols
-
Muslim rivals
Three wars. One leader. The enemy no longer looks foreign. He looks like us. Prays like us. Speaks like us. And that is the most dangerous war of all.
