There must always be... A... Reaver King?

It sounds like, from the Epilogue of Bilgewater event, that Gangplank was the only thing holding Bilgewater together. However malevolent as he was as the uncrowned king, he seemed to at least have a strong sense of keeping things in order. He was the final, most important cog in the well(?) oiled machine that was Bilgewater, keeping people from getting too wise for their own good and giving the city a powerful, if unpleasant, reputation.

Now that he's been dethroned, the whole place is a mess. It kinda reminds me of the Lich King from Warcraft: Without proper direction and control, nothing in Bilgewater really gets done, and it instead devours itself and everything around it.

Did Miss Fortune goof? Did she just straight up ruin her home for revenge? It seemed like she was doing it for more than personal reasons, even seeming somewhat benevolent in making sure all of Bilgewater saw Gangplank's fall. But if Bilgewater is just going to be in the throes of chaos now that Gangplank is not such a visible authority, it appears that she might have damned everyone in the city to a life of conflict. The road to Hell is paved with good intentions and all that, y'know? Gangplank, for his viciousness, seemed to be precisely what Bilgewater needed to keep everyone straight(ish).

Gangplank is no doubt going to try and reassert his dominance, but at this point will it help? Will his return be seen as a sign of strength that the gangs will pledge loyalty to? Or will he simply become a big dog in the fight, and Bilgewater will remain in a state of civil war? Did that scarlet wench ruin everything, or did the old sea dog need to be put in his place?
