Destan (English: Epic), is a Turkish historical action drama series produced by Mehmet Bozdağ, directed by Emir Khalilzadeh, Fethi Bayram and Metin Günay, and written by Nehir Erdem and Ayşe Ferda Eryılmaz.

[6] The tale starts with Alpagu Khan (Selim Bayraktar) whose infantrymen were killed because of a Chinese-led trap.

Upon learning this, Alpagu kills Tılsım Hatun, thereby orphaning his son, Batuga (Edip Tepeli).

15 years later, Alpagu arranges for Batuga's marriage to his cousin Kircicek, daughter of Balamir Yabgu.

Akkiz then reveals that she is the "Paw of the Two Headed Wolf" in front of the entire council due to being threatened with Batuga.

Batuga then manages to finally heal his disabled arm and foot, and is the one to lead the war against the Itbraklars along with Alpagu.

While they are judging Ulu Ece for sending a fake letter, the Itbraklar sneak in through the passage and bomb the throne room.
