When Alexander the Great's body began to rot, so did the world that believed in him. The empire did not fall; it dissolved-from loyalty into appetite, from divinity into rumor. Babylon became a crucible where ambition, grief, and faith melted together and could no longer be separated. Ashes of Empire: Ghost Emperor is the first volume in a cycle that follows that dissolution. It inhabits the moment when generals became kings, widows became conspirators, and every act of devotion turned violent. The body of the god-king is both relic and weapon; the struggle to bury him is the struggle to define what remains of humanity. This is not historical reconstruction. It is myth under autopsy-a study of how civilizations die and what stories they invent to feel immortal. Every scene, every betrayal, is drawn from the record but rendered as fever dream: grief made policy, ritual made war. History ends here not with prophecy but with echo-a sound of empires learning how to beg for meaning. Ghost Emperor is that echo, caught in fire.
