Ardent found the topic of different powers to be interesting. He also see that Magic helped prolong the longevity of certain powers.
For example, the Parsian Empire, which is the same as Persian Empire of his world, manage to retain their religious belief, one related to fire if he remember it right. And did not change into different Empire while bearing the same name as their predecessor.
The same hold true for the Western Roman Empire, Carthage, Macedon Empire and Egypt Dynasty, all destroyed or destroyed and rebuild with different name and brand.
'It made some sense. The older the civilization, the deeper their knowledge of Magic and Aura is. Unless they embroiled in a nation destroying civil war, it would be hard to take them down.' he assume the nation destroying civil war or something similar allow the Parsian to take down the Mesopotamian Kingdom.
