Character Relationships in The Horde

Saint Alexius (played by Maksim Sukhanov) is a protagonist in The Horde. Metropolitan of Moscow and a renowned miracle worker, Alexius is asked to heal Taidula after her blindness leaves Jani-Beg desperate. He travels to the Golden Horde, initially fails, suffers forced labor, and is later sanctified before Taidula’s sight is restored, after which he returns to Moscow with Fedka. Jani-Beg (played by Andrei Panin) appears in The Horde. Jani-Beg becomes ruler of the Golden Horde and is driven by concern for his blind mother, Taidula. He asks Ivan, knyaz Moskovskiy to surrender Saint Alexius as a healer, oversees Alexius’s ordeal, and is later assassinated by his own son after Alexius and Fedka return to Moscow. Fedka (played by Aleksandr Yatsenko) appears in The Horde. Fedka is Saint Alexius’s keleynik and accompanies him on the journey to the Golden Horde. After the attempted healing of Taidula fails, Fedka is sent to work at the furnaces beneath the khan’s bath for desecrating a threshold. He later suffers alongside Alexius and returns with him to Moscow. Ivan, knyaz Moskovskiy (played by Evgeny Kharitonov) appears in The Horde. Ivan, knyaz Moskovskiy is approached by Jani-Beg, who demands Saint Alexius as a healer for Taidula. Ivan recognizes the request as a rare chance to delay an impending Tatar attack on Moscow and therefore helps make Alexius’s journey to the Golden Horde possible. Taidula (played by Roza Khairullina) appears in The Horde. Taidula is Jani-Beg’s mother and the central reason Saint Alexius is brought to the Golden Horde. After she becomes blind, Jani-Beg urgently seeks a cure through Alexius. The initial attempt fails, but after Alexius’s suffering and sanctification, Taidula’s eyesight is restored.
