PLOT
Fed up with South America’s heat, the Maya, lured by rumors of golden soil, migrate to Anatolia, settling near Bağcılar and blending their advanced techniques with Turkish tribal culture. Their rapid rise, however, alarms Byzantium: peace-loving Emperor Klitor III is an avid Maya admirer, but his scheming wife, Empress Klitorya V, and his brother Muhteris conspire to eliminate Klitor, then abduct all Maya women to the imperial dungeons. Their twisted plan? By “improving” Byzantine lineage with Maya genetics while the men take local wives—“only God should know loneliness”—they intend to dilute the Maya’s flawless DNA into common stock.
