What might happen to Sylvanas at the end of Shadowlands

Most things indicated that the Alliance won the Darkshore Warfront from the very beginning. Narratively Nathanos was no longer at Darkshore (having headed back to Zandalar before the Battle of Dazar’alor, and then we see him for Nazjatar before he goes back to Orgrimmar) and he doesn’t show up in the Alliance version of the Darkshore Warfront at all. The Horde’s version of the warfront is set right after the Alliance intro questing since the Horde has to save Belmont, and since that’s always the case and generals don’t change like at Arathi it would seem this is a gameplay mechanic like repeating dungeons rather than battlegrounds (Belmont also doesn’t show up in the Alliance version of the Darkshore Warfront, so it’s not like the Alliance players recapture him every time, either).

And even outside the Darkshore Warfront proper we had support that the Alliance won:

And then obviously they did finally make the Alliance’s victory quest accessible in-game as well.
