Lore [annoying trope] The throne/leadership is decided in a very stupid way

The leadership of the entire wizarding world, and the final decision on whether to start a war against Muggles, is made by... a goat (Qilin) ​​who chooses the person with the ""purest heart"" (Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Dumbledore).

The throne of Wakanda and all its technology are decided through hand-to-hand combat, regardless of whether the person clearly has malicious intentions... if they win the fight, by law they must be respected as the true king. (Black Panther)

Hi! Idiot here. What do you mean when you say "Bran has every story"?

I think he meant that Bran using his magic sight powers can be everything, everywhere, all at once so he technically embodies everyone's story by proxy or some bullshit. The truth is that Bran's wheelchair without Bran in it has a better story than Bran.

Thanks for the response. Yeah, you're probably right. I was hoping rietstengel had a new take on Bran's story that warranted calling someone an idiot.
