Keep in mind, I think Jagex really could end the Myreque core of he series in 1 more quest.
Nothing says it has to end with the Myreque expelling the Vyres, or them taking back control of Morytania.
There are a couple of ways they can twist it to maintain the status quo of Vyrewatch all of the place.

As for some elements like investigating the secrets of the Daeyalt mines, of Salafaan's history, or the splinter group ... some could be spun off into their own quest that diverges from the Myreque line, but does not heavily rely on the outcome of the main series.
Some could also be a quick blurb like the splinter group, you find the diary of 1 of the dead faction members, and that when they last met, they learned the edicts had been broken anyways, the group members then returned to their natural dislike for each other and a fight ensued. 1 faction sort of won and left the others to rot, a few of the other faction members who survived eventually managed to make it out, and the poor schlub who wrote the journal was left for dead.

I could see Jagex doing that, but it would be extremely cheesy and lame.

Perhaps you're half right; perhaps we can't win. But we can fight.

I don't know, I still think that the leader of the Saradominist half of the splinter group is Aeonisig. You're basically suggesting that they resolve that subplot off-screen. I prefer my idea of giving the player the choice of determining which faction wins.

I wonder, could the sequel to Branches of Darkmeyer require The World Wakes? While we have to get a quest that specifically requires it, I think that the Myreque series has reached the point where we could expect Grandmaster quests, and requiring The World Wakes would help push it up there. It would also justify bringing back the splinter group, and possibly going with my idea of allowing us to decide if one of the factions gets to destroy the other.

Agreed they wanted more than their gods return imo and should set about doing whatever their goal was.

Mod Ana has stated herself it'd have to be a super long quest like too long for one quest to wrap up the main storyline SOS he'd prefer 2. I'd personally like to see 2 Grandmaster quests. The Mahjarrat storyline got 2 and Myreque is certainly worthy of 2.

Even then that is only tying up the main storyline and not counting spin offs like the ore etc.

It should. But it won't. Unless Jagex suddenly decides to listen to us.

Hopefully we'll see something in the Power to the Players polls.

Please not. It may end up like the poll we had in 2013, which led to Birthright being rushed for no reason whatsoever. It was still a decent quest, but it should have had a few more months of development time.
