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

The era of our generation—Admiral Antonius, Julian, Abdullah, myself, and the others—is fading. Our experience, our knowledge, our methods… we struggle to keep pace with the ever-changing tides of warfare and governance.

The future no longer belongs to us, no matter how much we wish to hold on.

It belongs to you. The younger generation.

Prove to us, to Rome, and to history that you are ready. Show us that you can bear the weight we carried for so long. If you do—if you succeed—then, and only then, can we die in peace.

As the last legions departed Constantinople, banners streaming in the wind and weapons gleaming under the sun, the city fell into solemn anticipation. The torches had passed. The new generation had taken its first step onto the battlefield of history.

The fate of Rome was now in their hands.
