Anduin returns to Stormwind but Turalyon refuses to give back the throne for fear that Anduin will be an incompetent ruler from being absent for such a long time and out of touch with current events.
Civil War ensues. Horde doesn’t care. Other Alliance leaders are upset but leave the humans to sort it out.
Who would win the throne!
Me. I would win the throne.
Anduin.
The setting still has him as the rightful king, so barring some massive character assassination, Turalyon would be painted as a dictator and a bad guy.
And this is WoW where the bad guys don’t win. QED, Anduin would win.
So you’d willingly throw away the glamorous life of an adventurer to basically rule over a herd of cats?
You shall not speak to his majesty this way, peasant!
I don’t think nations ruled by monarchies care if someone is “fit to rule.” It’s about the bloodline, which is why they’re ruled by a king or queen in the first place.
I’m not his subject so yes I can! 
Way to assume we even want the kid back. 
No, because cats aren’t playable yet…except druids.
So a herd of cats, bears, and laser chickens
Can I say I hope they both lose and Genn takes the throne?
You speak in the presence of Sarro, the First of His Name, Warchief of the Horde, High Warlock of the Horde, Lord of the Shadow Council, Master of Demonic Arts, Bringer of Chaos, called Sarro the Destroyer, the Dark Conduit, and the Fel Binder.
Just let me run that place
They’ll be up and running in no time, wouldn’t take years for a district to be rebuilt
My only requirement is no one pay attention to the Treasury for no suspicious reason at all
Ah yes, the guy who lost his kingdom and most of its citizens somehow manages to overthrow an allied kingdom that is offering aid and take control.
Seems legit.
He’s entitled by birth right’s so the people wouldn’t care. But for those adventures who dealt with him it is probably a different story.
I mean against an has-been hero turned Lightforged who may be part of a hyper-zealot army and a boy king who spent most of his rule captured and corrupted…
It can’t be worse.
Turalyon is a paladin, he’s too stupid to make a coup
So who should I address my condolences to at the funeral? Warchiefs not named Thrall have really short reigns.
Its not about being “worse.” It just makes no sense. Anduin is the rightful ruler of Stormwind. And any faction leader that tried to take that position would be attempting to overthrow Stormwind’s government.
The alliance isn’t the horde. There is no warchief. Every race is an independent faction that has agreed to help each other.
It’s been a long time since any Stormwind nobles showed up in a story or expressed any agendas. So I don’t feel I have any idea what a leadership crisis would even look like.
You should make a human toon and do the human heritage armor quest. There is a good bit of Stormwind politics and noble shenanigans in it.
