 When Daffid died in -41 [[EC]], control of the paper and family company was assumed by his youngest son Rikkard Grommie (-80 [[EC]] to -8 [[EC]]).

As such, he has become the most powerful person in [[Iganefta]]. His influence within the government is almost total and his ability to manipulate public opinion is so great that people are generally ignorant about the level of influence the Grommies now have.
