Altair: A Record of Battles

The Sinking City (1x7)

:

As everyone looks on in horror as Phoiníkē burns, Konstantinos tries to rally soldiers to defend the city, but Apollodorus sabotage the speaking tubes and scolds him for not seeing the reality of the situation. In order to save the citizens from slaughter, Apollodorus and the senate agree to surrender to Balt-Rhein and relay the message to everyone in the city. Kyros prepares to smuggle Mahmut to safety, but his friends urges him to escape with Mahmut and return once he is ready to retake their homeland. With Apollodorus promising to take full responsibility of the war, an angry and guilt-ridden Konstantinos confronts Lelederik and warns her that the empire's aggression will be their downfall before getting killed. As Mahmut and Kyros escape the city, they are picked up by Venedik ships led by Captain Silvestro Brega, who Mahmut angrily questions why they never arrive to help Phoiníkē before collapsing from his wounds he sustained from his battle with Glalat. For the next few days, Mahmut rests inside Abiriga's (Brega's first mate) room and read books about Venedik while contemplating everything he is been through. Meanwhile, Kyros gathers information and spies on the Venedik crew, reporting everything he learns to Mahmut. As Mahmut and Kyros resolve to continue to travel together, the group arrives at Venedik. Mahmut and Kyros goes to meet with the city-state's ruler, Doge Antonio Lucio, and inquire why he betrayed their pact with Phoiníkē.
