Joining the Byzantine Templars
In 1509, an earthquake struck Constantinople, at which point Bayezid had disappeared from Constantinople. In his absence, Byzantine Templars - remnants of the fallen Byzantine Empire - easily entered the city, and strived to revive their fallen empire. Led by Manuel Palaiologos, the Byzantine Templars caught the eye of Ahmet, who expressed interest in the Templar ideology.[1]
Ahmet, much younger and more charismatic than the elderly Manuel Palaiologos, slowly slipped into the position of leader of the Byzantine Templars, with Manuel becoming his second-in-command.[2] At the same time, Bayezid and Selim had engaged in a conflict, as Selim was making efforts to gain the Ottoman throne for himself.[1]
