History is written by the man holding the sword. The truth is known by the man holding the mop.
My name is Lucrio. I was born a slave in the Subura district of Rome, sold to the household of Julius Caesar at eighteen, and given my freedom by his will the afternoon they carried his body out of the Theater of Pompey. I spent the following forty years as a clerk to the Senate, processing the documents of a civilization in the act of liquidating itself.
I was invisible to the powerful men around me. This was, as it turned out, the only form of safety available—and the only form of witness.
What follows is not a poet's telling, nor a historian's account of battles and generals. It is an accounting.
Four books covering the Republic's final years, organized as any honest ledger should be: Inventory, Transaction, Default, and Settlement. I have recorded what was owned, what was exchanged, what was lost, and what was called peace when the arguing finally exhausted itself.
I have kept a second set of books my entire professional life. This is it.
I attest to its accuracy. The official record does not.—Lucrio, Freedman
