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

<p>The Ottoman cavalry commander is done for, and so is his men.</p>

<p>It is obvious that he might have had something to say in his last moments as he stared at Helios, his action might be heroic, he might be a brave and loyal janissary for his Sultan, but that is it, no one, including the historians writing down this piece of history, are going to mention the name of this Ottoman commander due to a simple reason: His charge did not cause any form of impact on the battle, nor did any of his men trapped inside the Roman infantry formation survive to spread his legacy, there will be only one line on the Historia: At the dawn of the 20th of May, 1465, the Ottoman commander Alaüddin Bey ordered his five hundred cavalry to charge the Roman formations (although he did not), but are defeated with two hundred plus Ottoman cavalries killed, fifty plus taken as refugees, and the rest fled.</p>
