Why would we be attempting to make her ruler of a KFC let alone a country? And that's one issue of many in DT that I hope they never repeat again or the next expansion might have us installing Hildibrand as the sovereign ruler of Ishgard.

I concur with this. I didn't mind Wuk or her VA, but the character itself was oppressively present, all the time, and we are constantly given reasons Wuk shouldn't be a leader. Add to this inconsistent plot elements left unexplained (sweet jesus the Dynamis crutch is doing a lot of lifting), and it was a chore to stay engaged. It was an exercise in futility and insanity that, behold, somehow conveniently drives the plot forward inexplicitly.
