From this text, What can you learn about Alexander’s legacy from this account?

“They say that, once upon a time, the pious Zarathustra (Zoroaster) made the religion. . . .The religion was in purity, and men were without doubts. But afterward, the accursed Evil Spirit, the Wicked One, in order to make men doubtful of this religion, instigated the accursed Alexander, the westerner who was dwelling in Egypt, so that he came to the country of Iran with severe cruelty and war and devastation; he also slew the ruler of Iran, and destroyed the metropolis (city) and empire, and made them desolate. And he killed several high priests and judges and priests and the masters of the Magians and upholders of the religion, and the competent and wise of the country of Iran." .
