Number 10

Nothing was left to Alexander, neither kingdom nor wealth; nothing was left to Fereydun, neither crown nor throne. Settle your own accounts now, before someone else calls you to a harsh reckoning.
Explanation: Alexander and Fereydun are legendary rulers cited as proof that all power fades. The 'reckoning' hints at the Day of Judgment.
