When peace comes they will turn on us, we're a major asset but whose asset are we.. will we serve the Grand Companies giving them more say with hero of the realm or will we serve Ishgard or Doma or a future land we haven't saved yet, the WoL becomes a political power piece that would grant many favours & ruling "we have WoL so do as we demand" type stuff.

Though we'll never see this since when realm has peace this games story arc will be over & probably start a new story for it in new realm.
