I have to agree. It would seem rather arbitrary if one thing got destroyed in both cities. Like who-/whatever did this would care about being fair.
I dunno... Will of a Tyrant... Means Lucan of course. But what if it was a literal will. As in he's (presumed at least) dead.

I'm sure the "paladin" Lucan D'Leer has plenty of occasions to deal with Necromancers in Freeport. How else do you think he would of learned how to become a Litch at such a young age?
noo wait wait wait, this is a wonderfull idea, devs destroy qyenos or freeport, well part of them, suddenly we have new events to repair and fix. voilà we have qeynos and freeport revamped! no more stuck npcs, no more ugly city! just fill the spots with lore bits and tadaa!
Or perhaps instead of Zigging the events in Qeynos will Zag, perhaps there will be increased activity in the sewers or Gnolls will be forced to ally with Qeynos because of an Orc Invasion of Antonica and/or Thundering Steppes (Which leaves things open for the revamp of TS for the expansion) Qeynos might have a suddend influx of Refugees instead of a crushed Building. This will of course mean the reworking of quests and possibly a turnover of BB to Orcs and small hold-outs of Gnolls so you can still do the L&L Have the towers heavily guarded... It would definitaly be more interesting then random building demolition.

I like this whole speculation about what happend in Freeport The devs should add some minor damage to Qeynos as well: Parts of the mage tower break down and fall onto Nathan Ironforge, smashing him to a pancake. Then, a new Live Event could be introduced, where everybody dances around the grave of this nasty little npc

Or a Wizard tries to learn teleportation but accidentally teleports the Queen's castle 1 Mile above Qeynos... only then to watch it fall down... Or a Conjuror tries summoning a new pet but it explodes upon appearing, leaving a huge crater in Qeynos Harbor. There are literaly thousands of ways for qeynos to have a similar disaster.

The why is simple. The Incredibel Hulk punched down Twilight Citadel. Then Wolverine showed up and cut him, making him enraged. Nightcrawler teleported in and took Wolverine to Qeynos, which was far enough away, that they hoped even IF the Hulk chased after them, he woudl calm down before finding them. Well halfway there, the Hulk began to calm down, but just as he was almost about to revert back into David Banner, Spiderman literally fell out of the sky! (You see, good ole' Spidey was doing battle with the Green Goblin, and managed to get himself STUCK to the goblin's glider! Well the webbing eventually gave out, dropping Spidey somewhere over Antonica... right on to the hulk!) If it weren't for the sudden impact, it was certainly Spiderman's "Green" jokes. Hulk exploded in a rage all over again, and swung at Spiderman, knocking him so hard that he actually clipped through a wall... causing him to fall through the world and be teleported to a safe location. Just then a monk ran past hulk, out adventuring... and the Hulk saw the monk's claw weapon. It reminded Hulk to finish finding Wolverine! So Hulk, now fully enraged, made his way to Qeynos. Once there, Mr. Sinister appeared, and told Hulk that Wolverine was in the Queen's Castle hiding! Then Mr. Sinister disappeared, laughing to himself. Hulk proceeded to destroy the castle in search for Wolverine! Your quest young adventurer, shoudl you choose to accept it... is to help the Hulk find Wolverine!
