1453, a year that marked the end of an era
With one city's fall, a shift from Medieval to Modern
Constantinople, a name etched in time
For a thousand years, stood strong and sublime

Against foes that dreamed to take her down
She persisted, unbroken, a true crown
But tonight, everything changes
Guns fired, women weep, men yell in ranges

Praying to God for a savior's grace
To rescue their city, to restore its place
In history's twist, God answered their plea
Sending a new emperor, the one they'd need

Antonius, born of the seas
To lead the Romans, a new destiny
To reach another pinnacle of might
And end the city's terrible plight

1453, a year that will forever divide
Medieval and Modern, with a fallen city as the divide

1453: Revival of Byzantium

"Hearts of oak are our ships; Gallant tars are our men."

-  Hearts of Oak, David Garrick& William Boyce

From the roars by the men of boiling blood, charred fingers and distorted faces came the blasting of shells pounding onto the enemy ships at the sides. The first few of the Roman ships have come into full contact to the Venetians by the broadsides. While the Venetians are expecting for a further exchange of arrows and followed by a naval boarding operation, the Greeks pushed out a series of blackened rods out of their ships and started blasting at them– it is a thing they are not alien with, these things are called artiglieria, but certainly they did not expect these things to turn out on ships.
