Ercan SARI


Great Constantinus opens Konstantinopolis(Istanbul) with a ceremony in 330. Eusebius, (archbishop) who baptizes Emperor Constantinus on his deathbed, hides the power of 3 greatest emperors which have been founded including Byzantium and will be founded on earth to the stones with magic. He raises the stones to the sky in order to pursue the existence of Byzantium and to prevent the foundation of a new empire which is more powerful. He believes that the stones will stay with Jesus for Anastasis

Mendez is a man who is a blacksmith. One night he wakes up to the noise of a crash in his house in which he stays alone. He sees a fire when he looks to the outside. When he gets there he comes across with a rock which has fallen down from the sky. He sees a stone in blue lights in the cracked earth. He takes the stone to his home. The people who have come for the noise realize the light that comes out from Mendez’s windows. After hiding the stone, Mendez expels the people who have rung his bell. After days, by thinking that it is not worth do anything, Mendez, a blacksmith, tries to understand whether he can shape the stone in fire. The stone which he keeps in fire transforms into 3 spheres. Meanwhile some people from the inhabitants keep an eye on Mendez’s house. One of these people burgles Mendez’s house and finds a shining thing by having an opportunity after Mendez’s leaving his home. Before leaving the house Mendez comes back. Getting back 2 spheres Mendez cannot prevent the other’s being stolen and he gets hurt. Not being able to calm down, Mendez throws one of the spheres to the mirror that stands in the front. The sphere that comes close fast to its reflection, before crashing the mirror, produces energy with a massive light and blows up the mirror and causes Mendez to fall back to the floor.

The man who has stolen the stone is a servant of King Origon and he gives it to King. The seer reaches his first aim by having told the king to possess the stones.

When Mendez, trying to understand the mystery of stones, brings two spheres together then they become a death machine throwing energy where they are being targeted. Wanting to take his stone back in this way he arrives the palace. He gets an arrow on his back when he is on the edge of killing the king in the mirrored hall of palace. After understanding that he would die, he notices the mirrors and he brings the spheres together for the last time. The energy that is reflected from the mirrors causes a great explosion and kills everyone.

In 1187 when Jerusalem was conquered by Saladin, the spheres fall back on earth and Mendez finds. Fall of the spheres is the sign of coming near of Byzantium’ end. The more powerful Muslims become the quicker Byzantium come to end. 265 years after the explosion, the people that were killed by the spheres come back to life by the mystery of Anastasis. The time comes to 1452.

The person who finds the stones after coming back life again becomes the seer. After seeing that, Mendez hides himself and follows the seer. The seer sets out towards Istanbul with the stones. Mendez follows him, when they come to Istanbul Mendez who realizes that they are not alive for 265 years seizes the seer. After learning that the seer whose aim is to take the stones to the Bishop is a secret Priest, Mendez kills him and he heads the way of bishop by disguising like a priest.

The secret of stones reaches from one bishop to another for generations. Spheres are put on the stone on which the emperor is crowned in a secret religious meeting that is done in Ayasophia and they gather around it including Mendez whom they thought as Priest. The rite is to keep Byzantium alive. Religion men who are not able to take any reaction from spheres suspect the identity of Mendez. Mendez, who comes front in order to prove himself, takes the spheres in his hands and kills everyone. The spheres cannot reach to their aim and cause to the end of Byzantium in 1453.

Mendez who runs away with the spheres, proceeds to high sees by passing thorough Bosporus, Dardanelle and Straits of Gibraltar. He goes to an unknown ashore. Here, He lives until his death. After years, the sealers who find the spheres name those lands as America...
