I suspect/hope Wuk Lamat is going to get kicked in the teeth over it in the patch content. She's naïve enough coming into co-ruling her own country, and then just decided to add an entire second one to her plate because "family!". Like...yes, Gulool Ja is her nephew, he's the rightful king, he's way too young for it, and Alexandria can't exactly go from monarchy to nothing in five minutes, so it tracks as far as necessity goes, but Wuk Lamat isn't even remotely canny enough to navigate that political situation. I hope they do something interesting with it, in any case. They dangled a ton of plot hooks all over the place to pick up on, and that's one of them.
