Its AD 64, Rome has just burned! My grain has burned and part of my house has to, and all that emperor Nero did was stand on his balcony and play the lyre! They have just now started the building of his golden house. I hope he lives an unhappy, miserable rest of his life.

    Nero has both hurt you and me so we have similar feelings and intrests. The great fire has effected both you and me in horrible ways and I believe we would have many things to talk about and discuss.
