Something that intrigues me regarding Mordekaiser's character

One thing that struck me when reading through some of the new lore is that the "bad guys" are made to have at least a tragic past or a certain quality to them that can redeem them in some eyes. They're human, they're the subject of inner turmoil and them becoming "evil" is usually bound to a certain tragic event or twisting of mind.

And then there's Mordekaiser. The guy's lacking most of the usual human attributes and drives. He does not seem to love, to hate, to engage in human emotion. All he seems to care for is eternal Conquest and to bring Valoran to its knees, ruling it as a tyrant king with an iron fist. There isn't even a specific goal he seems to want to achieve (other than keeping his bones safe). He does not want to end all conflict by conquering the entire world like Veigar and he does not seem to actively want to destroy every living being.

He's a strange case of a being of pure willpower with only ONE goal in mind. Even when struck down he'll simply resurrect himself and keeps going, this very motivation to conquer all of Valoran being the sole reason for his continuous existence. He does not have any loved ones or friends, he only has puppets and tools he commands, he does not care if they would die for his ultimate goal. But what would happen when he DOES achieve his goal of conquering Valoran? Would his thirst be quenched and his soul finally pass on or would he seek to conquer other worlds and dimensions? Is there even a sliver of humanity left in Mordekaiser or is he just a revenant bound to this very purpose of conquest?

Has he lost what made him human in the wake of his death and subsequent resurrections? Did he lose more and more of his humanity with every time he was struck down and brought back from Oblivion? Is he just an Idea, no longer driven by man's various cravings? Did he just become Conquest personified without even knowing what to do when he finally achieves that single goal?

This may just be me overthinking it. He may just have ulterior motives we do not know about and him conquering Valoran is simply part of a bigger plan. Maybe he's the hero that will stand against the void with Valoran united under his banners?!!?!!! (I sure hope not)

One thing's certain though, Mordekaiser is an interesting character and one who can serve as the main antagonist for many story arcs; A being that lives and thrives on Conquest and whose will to dominate's the driving force behind his machinations. He is League's Version of Sauron.
