Storyline

The year is 1703. You are Ali Pasha, a handsome peasant who, through charm and intelligence, has earned himself a comfortable place in the palace. Sultan Mustafa has appointed you as his Grand Vizier, and given you his daughter, Princess Emine’s hand in marriage.

Your life is the original rags-to-riches fairytale, that is, until one day you start to hear rumors of rebellion forming within the palace walls! 
 
Can you uncover who is planning this revolt and stop them from overthrowing the Sultan?
