" ...it could be that they are simply unaware of Arthas and Kel'Thuzad's defeat, and they are awaiting their return. Or it could be that the Cult of the Damned has realized the Lich King and Kel'Thuzad are no longer a force to be reckoned with, so they have decided to begin work for their own motives..."

"There doesn't have to be a resolution to Sylvanas' apparent madness right now."

Wait a minute...

What if the Cult of the Damned has realized both Arthas and Kel'thuzad have fallen...but they don't care? What if Ner'zhul and Darkmaster Gandling had a backup plan? What if Sylvanas has been possesed by Ner'zhul and is now slowly being turned into the Lich Queen under everyone's noses. Think about it, why else would the val'kyr have sacrificed themselves to bring her back from the dead unless they felt some crazy devotion to their new master...or former master...

Do I think Sylvanas will be turned into a raid boss? Unlikely, but possible. What's more likely is that she'll become the final boss of a dungeon, and half of the fight will be spent giving her an exorcism of sorts and releasing the spirit of Ner'zhul from her body, who will then posses Darkmaster Gandling or someone else. She will then help us in a raid to defeat Ner'zhul and his new host once and for all.
