A man in his late 40s with a strong, battle-worn physique. His face is lined with the weight of empire, with deep-set eyes that reflect both determination and sorrow.

Sultan Mehmed II Behold, the city of Constantine falls before us. Let it be known that from this day forth, it shall be the jewel of our empire.

Emperor Constantine XI Palaiologos Then let it be said that we stood firm, even as the walls crumbled around us. For God and for Rome.

Janissary Captain Forward, my brothers! The city is ours! Leave no quarter for those who resist!

Sultan Mehmed II Take the Hagia Sophia. Let its bells ring no more, and let the call to prayer echo from its domes.

Emperor Constantine XI Palaiologos So falls the last light of Rome. May God have mercy on us all.

Janissary Captain The Emperor stands before us! Take him alive for the Sultan!

Sultan Mehmed II Let this day be remembered as the dawn of a new era. Constantinople is no more. Istanbul rises from its ashes.
