Many reports maintain that the arrogant general was killed during the supposed parley with the Parthians, but I have taken the liberty of having him taken prisoner. The manner of Crassus' execution matches his greed and is similar to that of an unpopular Roman governor in Asia Minor some years previously.

We also know from contemporary text that ten thousand legionaries were marched to Margiana to serve as border guards. One can only imagine what it must have been like to be so far from home, in a time when such distance was utterly final. Little information has passed down about the fate of the Roman prisoners, although some assert that they went on to serve as mercenaries for the Huns.
