1453 A.D. - Constantinople is under siege, about to fall under the terrible attacks by the Ottoman armies of Sultan Muhammad, in what will be one of the bloodier and more memorable war events in the medieval age and history as a whole. Constantine Palaiologos, the last emperor of the East, desperately tries to oppose with all his might to what is the foretold end of a thousand-year-old empire. But soon, isolated and without help, he realizes that all is lost and decides to disappear along with his world, throwing himself as a martyr among the enemies that have entered the city. But fate seems to have other plans for him. His time has yet to come. There may still be a way for him, and for his empire, to come back into existence. Whether it's in Constantinople, or at the extreme ends of the world.
