Hennin became Lord Merchant when two of his relatives died leaving him two separate fortunes. The Lord Mastrell of his time started a personal account with Hennin, and Hennin would put the [[Diem]]'s tribute money into the account. After Hennin's rule, when the next Lord Merchant took over he discovered that a vast sum was now owed to the Diem, the original tributes and a large amount of interest, and since a new Lord Merchant inherits all of the incumbent's fortune and debts the debt has increased to the point where it is impossible to pay back.{{book ref|ws3|3}} |
