It depends if Jagex wants to Segway into the Desert storyline with the branch from the EGW storyline happening with this update. I know that Mod osborne wants to tie up the loose ends from the EGW in the coming year ( namely what happens to the eggs, the Elder Gods Etc).
If they do bring in the desert series to the 6th age, I would like for them to talk about how Menaphos is doing in the 6th age with the new Pharaoh in control. Do they get involved in the struggle? As far as I know, no Menaphite is in EGW currently.
Desert folks and gods were never involved in GWD and GWD2. They never have any problems with gods (as illustrated by their allowance of the Abbey of St. Elspeth Citharede) and regions and Guthix Edicts didn't apply to them anyway. There is no reason why all of a sudden they don't want to engage in warfare again... except under the order of Tumeken once again.
When Tumeken comes again, I think it is not for the "struggle of Menaphos" or EGW. It will be the end of it rather, as we will be moving to the next chapter of Guthix's Prophecy - the Shadow Breach.

Tumeken
and
Elidinis
, plus the
bau of Tumeken
(Apmeken, Crondis, Het, and Scabaras). Icthlarin is already heavily involved in the Elder God Wars, but the Desert Quest series not being complete prevents Jagex from bringing the rest of the Menaphite Pantheon into the fray. This MUST be rectified and hopefully Het’s Oasis is a sign that a sequel to
Phite Club
is in the works. I do not know about the rest of you, but I want to find Scabaras, reunite the
bau of Tumeken
, and deal with Amascut once and for all.

Not quite correct, I fear. The Kharidian Desert hosted several major battles between Zamorak and Saradomin during the God Wars, namely the destruction of both Uzer and Ullek. Also, recall the Kharidian–Zarosian War in the Second Age, when Zaros tried to conquer the Desert and failed only due to Tumeken's sacrifice.
As to the Edicts, they did effect the Desert - just to a lesser degree because only one God was banished. The Desert's only full-blown Younger God, in fact: Elidinis. The rest of the Menaphite Pantheon, the bau of Tumeken & Icthlarin & Amascut, are demigods and thus were not banished.
My point was that, since I assume that Tumeken will be restored at the end of the Desert Quest series, that Jagex should finish the series as - if my assumption is correct - that would make Tumeken active in the Sixth Age. Even if I am wrong, I see no logical reason why Elidinis and the rest of the Menaphite Pantheon should be excluded from the Elder God Wars seeing the important role Icthlarin has. Elidinis is Icthlarin's mother, after all, and a full-blown Younger God besides, making her far more powerful than he, and since all the other gods have joined the fun - Saradomin and Zamorak even shelving their differences in face of the Elder threat - I, again, see no reason why Elidinis and the rest of the bau of Tumeken should not take part.

Races didn't participate in warfare certainly didn't mean they were "lack of power". Seren brought the elves back to the Priffdinas to avoid the God War most definitely not because she is "lack of power" comparing to Saradomin and Zamorak, Remember, Zaros and Seren are of equal powers as we learned it from the last episode of the Battle of the Monolith. She just didn't want to fight with the false idols.
Read what the Magister said of Icthlarin and Saradomin then you should know who is stronger.

Another, more active, deity is the one I have encountered many times on my journey back to the Underworld: the dog-like Icthlarin.
An interesting sort, obsessed with guarding the souls on their journey to an afterlife. He seems burdened by an ancient guilt; perhaps that is why I feel a sense of kinship with him?
I wonder if he realises the sheer power at his disposal.
If he just wanted... If he just reached out and used the vast energy flowing through his domain on a constant basis, he could rival any of the other so-called gods.

Even Saradomin himself would fall
