Oh Dark and Cruel World,

I now understand, months later, that my wounds won't heal, no matter what. I am the Sultan of the world, but the one thing I desire is the one thing I can't have: my mother. Back. I have tried to make peace with it, but it has only driven me to madness. Now, I fear people want to dethrone me. Perhaps even Dilasub and Yahya. My advisors tell that I must execute my brother, but I know my mother wouldn't approve- what should I do? - Sultan Bayezid

Sultan Bayezid decided to go on a campaign while feeling ill. Will he ever return?


Dilasub finds this to be the perfect opportunity. But Bayezid thought a step ahead of her. He got ahold of Yahya, who was innocent, and sought to kill him overnight.

Dilasub almost killed herself.

She arranged to meet with all of her mothers allies, including Grand Vizier Ali Pasha, the former janissary head.

"Pasha's and Beys, as you know my brother has gone mad. He killed Yahya, and I don't think he will be done until he kills his own sons."

The men nodded in agreement. Anyone who could see or hear would know that.

"I have decided... I will take the throne, as regent for the children. We will get rid of Bayezid."

Most were in agreement, and everyone prepared as Ali Pasha got red to go to the Campaign.

One night, he puts in a large dose of poison into Bayezid's food.

That night, Bayezid died.

It is my time to shine. My mother would be proud. - Dilasub Sultan
