The show depicts the epic love story of Akkiz, who was orphaned through Alpagu Khan's killing of her father, and Batuga, Alpagu's disabled son, and their journey to gain justice and exact revenge on the Gök Khan.
Premise
The story takes place in the 8th century before the Turks converted to Islam.[6] The tale starts with Alpagu Khan, whose infantrymen were killed because of a Chinese-led trap. Following this betrayal, his brother Balamir Yabghu finds a note on a Chinese soldier which reveals that Alpagu's wife, Tılsım Hatun, betrayed him, and that she and her father had formed an alliance with China to destroy the Gök Khaganate. Upon learning this, Alpagu kills Tılsım Hatun, thereby orphaning his son, Batuga.
