Though good at heart, İskender grows up on the streets, in orphanages, and in prisons. He survives solely through his own strength, fighting against every obstacle in his path. But one day his journey takes him to Arafköy, where he realizes that the true reality lies behind its walls. In this town on the warm shores of the Aegean—seemingly a piece of paradise—İskender carries the scars of his past on his back. As he is tested on his path toward becoming whole, he finds the love and longing he has been searching for here. Cennet Ana, little Ayşecik, Bayram the Fisherman, Adem the Wanderer, and Doctor Gönül—who extends a hand to everyone—all leave their mark on his life. But in Arafköy, it is not only İskender who bears a burden—everyone carries their own weight. And as İskender searches for answers, new and unexpected questions will arise before him.

İskender finds himself in a life he has never seen before in Arafköy. But while forced to keep playing the role of Kamil out of fear of being exposed, will he be able to hide the İskender inside him? With Gönül’s support, Arife takes new steps to reunite with her children. Adem, Yasemin, Nilüfer, and Menekşe embark on a big adventure for Arife’s children. But will Arife succeed in this struggle? Meanwhile, as Bayram disappears into the open seas with his boat, will he be able to find a new path for himself?

Just when İskender thinks everything is finally on track, he finds himself in trouble again. He must either save Muhsin and risk exposing his true identity, or protect his secret and leave Muhsin to his fate. So, which path will İskender choose this time? As Gönül grieves her father’s loss, how will she face Sarı Dayı alone? And in the middle of the storm, will Bayram be able to save the mermaid caught in his net? How will this tale come to an end?
