Wanna bet that Ibrahim is considering doing something to Mehmed for the sake of the pure bloodline? Thankfully history has Mehmed living 20+ years so let's hope the mangaka doesn't decide to deviate arbitrarily.
Ugh, I just wanna slap Ibrahim.
...anyway we still have 5 more years till Suleiman and Hurrem marry and most of this hulabaloo comes to an end...haaaaah. So darn long to wait.
Till then I refound that lovely poem of Suleiman's for Hurrem so this will have to tide me through till the romance actually begins.
"Throne of my lonely niche, my wealth, my love, my moonlight.
My most sincere friend, my confidant, my very existence, my Sultan, my one and only love.
The most beautiful among the beautiful...
My springtime, my merry faced love, my daytime, my sweetheart, laughing leaf...
My plants, my sweet, my rose, the one only who does not distress me in this world...
My Istanbul, my Caraman, the earth of my Anatolia
My Badakhshan, my Baghdad and Khorasan
My woman of the beautiful hair, my love of the slanted brow, my love of eyes full of mischief...
I'll sing your praises always
I, lover of the tormented heart, Muhibbi of the eyes full of tears, I am happy."
(at least it seems we might start getting more speedy updates)
