Il nobile ungherese Hunyadi János vuole sposare Mara Brankovic, figlia di un conte serbo, ma dopo l'inaspettato attacco a Galambóc da parte degli ottomani, le cose non sono così certe.

The Hungarian king wishes to be the emperor of the Holy Roman empire. Hunyadi falls in love with Erzsébet but he needs to leave her home to go with the king. Mara worries for a woman who arrives to Constantinople.

Ora in Italia sotto Visconti, Hunyadi è molto apprezzato dalla gente, ma tutte le lettere di sua moglie gli vengono nascoste. Nel frattempo Erzsébet dà alla luce il figlio di Hunyadi e cerca di mantenere l'ordine nel villaggio di Hunyad.

With the death of Sigismund, Albert Habsburg takes the Hungarian throne, and the pious new king soon finds himself caught up in the games of the demanding barons and his strong-willed wife, Elisabeth of Luxembourg. Although Elisabeth is aware of the importance of an heir to the throne, she has been trying unsuccessfully to approach her husband for years, and finally, under the influence of Ulrich Cillei, she resorts to a much darker solution. Meanwhile, the Hungarian noble houses are also expanding their power, convincing the new king that their soldiers should not be called into arms outside the country's borders. When Murad launches a military campaign against the castle of Smederevo in Serbia, Hungarian help arrives only in the person of Hunyadi, while the nobility is camped on the border not suspecting that they are putting themselves in a danger greater than fighting. Hunyadi thus fights another desperate battle against the overwhelming force of the Ottomans, with a tactical move that surprises everyone.
