The Rise and Fall

A tomb now suffices him for whom the whole world was not sufficient.
- Unknown, in reference to Alexander the Great

He dreamt of owning the world, of achieving the impossible, and if anyone could have done it he was most likely. Regardless of the conflicting views on Alexander he was a brilliant tactician with ambition that surpassed all else - or so we are led to believe by historians. He wanted the world and it ended for him like for any other, in a tomb where he was laid to rest.
