Why are you writing this story? There are lessons to be learned from the interactions of a sultan and his children, particularly, the sultan's interaction with his eldest son. Plus, it is still a relevant story even after 500 years have passed, and important lessons can be filtered out from the interaction between a father and his son. Surely, this relationship between Sultan Suleiman and his eldest son Prince Mustafa was not learned in schools of the western world, whether, elementary, junior high, or high school. I should know, I went through the education system and the information written in this story was not thought. Granted, if one were to attend a History Faculty at any University, surely, one would expect that parts of this story, would have been thought in the program. But, I strongly suspect that the part about Prince Mustafa being executed by his biological sultan father would not be in the literature, maybe only a line or two, at the most would be there. Furthermore, the urge to write this story now is due to wanting to relay the information that is still an intriguing topic of conversation in other parts of the world, while in the western world, it is a topic that is seldom talked about, discussed, or studied. Moreover, it will be beneficial to write a non-fiction story that will educate and entertain the esteemed readers, and introduce a high percentage of them, to a part of the world that they might not know much about. But, I have to clarify the above statement of, a non-fiction story; this story is not entirely non-fiction. The story is a non-fiction telling of the Ottoman Empire, until the tail-end of Lawmaker Sultan Suleiman's time, in other words, chapters one to five, and chapter seven, are true and well researched telling of the empire. Therefore, everything written up until chapter five, plus, chapter seven are accurate. Granted, it is a strong statement, which could be retorted by a reader, with one line that could show something other than what was written in this story. However, I am confident of the truth, and welcome any critique, therefore, bring on the criticism. Furthermore, most everything in chapter six will be a fictional telling of what happened when Prince Mustafa rode into the Ottoman Empire's campsite, and entered the shadowy big black tent, where his sultan father was waiting for him in, therefore, the readers will have an entertaining, interesting, and surprising chapter. But please, I urge you to not peek ahead. Therefore, to the question of, why are you writing this story? The answer is that I feel compelled to tell this fascinating tale to readers, who surely want a story about intrigue, manipulation, and refined culture from days long forgotten. In this story, I will explain the life of Prince Mustafa and the betrayal charges made against him by his sultan father. Also, the part where Mustafa enters the tent has been speculated by most everyone, but never fully known; what really happened inside the black tent? The factual answer is this, no one knows what happened. What I will do is take you back to October 6, 1553 and bring forward previously unknown and intriguing events from that day, told in a fictional telling. Please purchase the book, and take a ride to a different world. Thank you and take good care,
