The air in Babylon trembles as Alexander the Great succumbs to fever, his empire—the greatest the world has known—left leaderless with a single, devastating word: “Kratistos,” to the strongest. His generals, the Diadochi, waste no time mourning; Perdiccas clutches the royal ring, Ptolemy eyes Egypt’s riches, and Antigonus sharpens his ambitions in Asia Minor. Roxana, the Bactrian widow carrying Alexander’s heir, hides a secret succession plan whispered in their final nights—a fragile hope against the wolves circling her gilded cage. Olympias, exiled in Epirus, unleashes her fury, determined to avenge her son and reclaim the Argead dynasty, while Lysander, a weary Thracian scout, witnesses the empire’s unraveling with growing disillusionment.
As the Partition of Babylon carves the realm into fragile satrapies, the Hellenistic world ignites in succession wars—from the Lamian rebellion in Greece to the desperate Siege of Nora. Ptolemy forges a kingdom blending Greek and Egyptian legacies, Antigonus dreams of reuniting the empire under his iron rule, and Eumenes defies odds with cunning. Yet amid the chaos, a new civilization emerges: the Library of Alexandria rises, Koine Greek binds distant lands, and a cult deifies Alexander’s name. But the Diadochi’s relentless power struggles weaken their realms, inviting Rome’s shadow to loom ever closer. The Empty Throne weaves a tapestry of military strategy, political intrigue, and personal sacrifice, chronicling the birth of an era—and the cost of its collapse.
