[Iskandar could swear this one particular scene wasn't there a moment ago.
Still how fitting of his temple to have a character of its own. His horse ended becoming a Heroic Spirit so it's absolutely no wonder his temple in no mere architecture.
Does it mean that all his future exploits would be documented on those walls? It certainly seems so.

The relief in questions clearly shows the space they are now in. Complete with the fire in the copper vase in the middle. There is a person depicted on each side of the flame. One on the left is certainly him. There are sun rays and ankhs flowing from his figure. A proper depiction of the divine. There is image of what could only be a chakram floating over the fire.

The person on the right however. Even if the relief is in rigid Egyptian style not exactly known for showing individuality he could not mistake her for anyone other. The fact she has her name and title written above her head also helps. If anyone were to have doubts.

Iskandar smiles. Satya. Alexander's Exemplar. Good job temple. This is exactly how it should look like. She's part of his legend now.]


How do you like it, hm?
