Legacy

"Only now is becoming clear the enormous wealth the deceased Demon Princes amassed." according to a spokesman of IPCC, one of the organizations responsible for dismantling the empires of the former master criminals.

Just a superficial glance at each individuals wealth:

Attel Malagate: real estate, hotels, casino's, holiday resorts, various industrial plants manufacturing equipment for holiday resorts, bank accounts, transportation vehicles, total assets estimated over 12 billion SWE.

Kokor Hekkus: real estate, including several celestial bodies like planets and moons, interstellar transportation equipment like space ships and shuttles, several numbered accounts at prestigious banks, total assets estimated over 15 billion SWE and counting.

Viole Falushe: real estate, bio-techno plants, bank accounts, large collection of fine art, jewelry, an amazing quantity of gold, several celestial bodies including the one hosting the Palace of Love, total assets estimated over 13 billion SWE.

Lens Larque: factories, haulage equipment, industrial equipment, bank accounts, amazing collection of space ships, real estate, total assets estimated over 8 billion SWE and counting.

Howard Alan Treesong: Being the last of the Princes to die, activities are still underway to collect all facts and numbers. So far it appears that Treesong had a liking for plain cash and stocks and bonds. As of today an amount of 4 billion SWE has been tracked back to his name.

As of yet it remains unclear what will happen next. Sources close to Earth and Rigel governments speak of the forming of creating a special Trust an appointing a dedicated Committee to support charitable initiatives using the combined assets. One thing is clear though: it will take a considerable amount of time and effort to get "the books" in order.
