Summary
Emperor Constantine looked at his guests sitting around the imperial rectangle table, smiled dryly, and said softly, “Greetings, everyone."
The guests leaned forward toward the emperor.
The ruler continued, “Madams, sirs, illustrious captains of the army, and our most Christian friends, I bid you all welcome to my table this evening."
He cleared his throat, then continued loudly, “We are here today to enjoy a delicious meal and drink. Before beginning to eat, I want to bring to everyone’s attention that the hour of battle is approaching. I want to make it clear to everyone, we, the people of Constantinople, must stand together with firm resolution. Remember that we have always fought with glory against the enemies of Christ. Now the defense of your fatherland will begin, the infidel, evil, and hideous Ottoman Turks are preparing once again, for a siege to our city."
The Proud Stand by the last emperor of the Byzantine Empire tells the tale of the last confrontation between the Byzantine and the Ottoman Empires.
