1King Ahasuerus laid a tribute on the land, and on the islands of the sea. 2All the acts of his power and of his might, and the full account of the greatness of Mordecai, to which the king advanced him, aren't they written in the book of the chronicles of the kings of Media and Persia? 3For Mordecai the Jew was next to King Ahasuerus, and great among the Jews, and accepted by the multitude of his brothers, seeking the good of his people, and speaking peace to all his descendants.

Esther 10 — Persian Empire
Unknown — Anonymous chronicler of Persian court records. Set in Persian Empire under King Ahasuerus. The chronicler concludes the dramatic saga with a brief epilogue about King Ahasuerus's prosperity and Mordecai's rise to unprecedented power as second-in-command. What began as a story of near-extinction for the Jewish people ends with their former enemy's position now occupied by one of their own.
