Byzantium (Constantinople: Istanbul)

Byzantium later turning to be Constantinople--After the emperor Constantine made it the capital of byzantine. It's a glamourous city-Famous for its art, history and cuisine. The roles of men and women differed--Though unlike the western part of the world--Women had rights to own and earn--And men were to be in politics and some spiritual. The city is the fusion of Greek, Latin and roman--With their constant presence in the air--Latin was used in more formal settings were as Greek was used for daily conversations. They have places like the Hippodrome which is close to the colosseum and Taverns-Which are places for measuredly time-There-Foods such as bread, wine and even get women who were sold to dance for them.

This is the current emperor: Emperor Augustus:

His one ad only heir: Flaytus Agustus Filius

Flaytus Agustus Filus was an orphan boy from Ruthenia--Who was founded in the wilderness forest by the emperor's soldiers.

he was bought to the capital as an infant and was raised in the imperial palace. He was given the best education in sword fighting and archery, math and politics--Being the only male child-Agustus favored him as he had no other child.

Growing up--He was the eye candy of the market, his striking appearance and his hazel gaze and the ability to change his tone from a soothing to a barrel made him the epitome of masculinity in the city of Byzantium and the entire empire.

Noble women wanted him--And men strived to be like him. Flaytus like his father spared no women a chance as he was too engrossed in politics--Though he did have many concubines who were for his pleasure after a long day.

There was not an "only woman of his heart"

Maybe...

Flaytus takes a sip*

"Maybe that may all change"

Quick note:

I know emperor Augustus is a real figure--though in my story-He may be portrayed differently (Sorry about that*) remember, my story isn't all historically accurate as my main goal is to write this story creatively and for fun!
