A League of Extraordinary Gentlemen

One gentleman, then another, then another, adds up to a league. And if we add one more qualifier, exceptional, singular, you have a league. A league of extraordinary gentlemen.
Once upon a time, there was an ancient land, a land by the sea, where an ancient river ran through, once wild, now tamed.
And in this land, people from all over the world flocked to live by the sea, or the river's rich banks. Turkish, Spanish, French, Circassian, in the midst of all this commotion of races and people, life was born. Lives of few special individuals, a kind of gentlemen you should avoid, exotic, toxic and all kinds of things.
And to add to the exoticness of this, these gentlemen were all born under the same constellation. The Taurus constellation. Somewhere in the sky, where beauty mixed with magic, and magic with charm, and charm with corporality, and out of this comes Taurus. Earthy, charming and sensual.
And once every blue moon, along the sides of the ancient river, these gentlemen constellate, like a group of stars, and glow, with immense light, and if you are lucky enough, you will catch it, like the shooting star, and wonder, how distant? how far?
