Enjoyed the series, but a couple of unresolved issues for me. What was the purpose of the opening scene in episode one, where Atiye runs out of the forest in a blood soaked gown to emerge at her own funeral? Didn't seem to relate to the remainder of the story. Secondly, what is Seder's interest in Atiye? I noticed he had some sort of ring design, picture on the wall and rug covering the hidden stairwell. Is he a rival faction with a different symbol to Atiye's? Hopefully find out answers in Season 2 .
