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 ------------------------------------------------------------------- AD1453, as the city of Constantinople prepares for its final fate, a pirate captain and crew sailed into the golden horn, history made an abrupt turn from this point onward....

Skanderbeg! Skanderbeg! Skanderbeg!

Another typical day whereby two thousand men are sent out to die in the no man's land. 

The commander of a three thousand men regiment named Adrianos Chronoulis watches these men being dragged into the large parade square, being issues their weapons with no armour protection of course, and then they marched out of the camp under the watchful eyes of the 'supervisors' tracing them at the back, cutting down anyone who dares to escape from one's duty.
