Not to be mistaken for the ''[[Axis Powers Hetalia]]'' fic also titled ''[[From the Ashes (fanfic)|From the Ashes]].''
{{tropelist}}
* [[Alternate Calendar]]: The fic is set in 1529 A.W.E.
* [[Be Careful What You Wish For]]: Pheonix wished to have a grand adventure in his archeological studies on Earth. With his discovery of Zero's tomb, he gets ''exactly that.''
* [[Distant Finale]]: Of sorts, given how it takes place over a thousand years into the future.
* [[Earth That Used to Be Better]]: Apparently, Earth is largely the domain of researchers and archeologists by the time the fic takes place.
* [[Fan of the Past]]: Phoenix, who's an amateur historian and student-archeologist with a fascination for the old days of Britannia.
* [[Free-Love Future]]: Kind of. Pheonix's friends and peers are rather open with their sexuality, though Pheonix himself is more focused on his work than anything else.
* [[Future Imperfect]]: Subverted. The age of the long-gone Holy Britannian Empire hasn't been forgotten, with much in the way of surviving historical records. On the other hand, enough time has passed that people still resort to archeology and plain guesswork to fill in the blanks, such as figuring out Zero's true identity.
* [[Legendary in the Sequel]]:
* [[Legendary in the Sequel]]:* Zero is very much a nigh-revered legend to the people of the future. So much so that there are still movies made about his exploits and the times he lived in, albeit more romanticized and dramatized. Phoenix's family is even said to be descended from Zero {{spoiler|which may have more than a grain of truth}}.
** Nunnally {{spoiler|the Gentle}} is still remembered for bringing about the "Golden Age" of Britannia.
* [[Lost Technology]]: Apparently, Knightmare Frames are this. So much so that pieces of them are worth a lot of money.
* [[Mars]]: Apparently, human civilization has since moved to Mars in the intervening generations. Phoenix's hometown, Galileo, is mentioned as being among the first Martian settlements.
