In a world where no one is honored while they are alive, every life is measured only after death.
The Legacy Accolades Archive was built to protect truth from vanity. When a person dies, the system counts what can be proven and seals the record forever.
Vinny DeCarlo trusts the system.
Then his father dies.
The official record says Vincent DeCarlo Sr. left behind twelve verified contributions. Clean. Reasonable. Exactly what Vinny expected from a man he never fully understood.
But inside a storage unit, Vinny finds a card catalog filled with six hundred names: people his father helped before they became measurable. Before the certifications, placements, repairs, protocols, and records the Archive could recognize.
People who almost quit.
People who almost vanished.
People who needed ten more minutes.
Now Vinny has to confront the flaw in a perfect system.
The Archive can count the good thing.
It cannot always see the body underneath it.
Proof is a sharp speculative novella about legacy, invisible labor, fathers and sons, and the people who hold the world up without ever getting their names attached to it.
