I find it ironic on how her Vralt is symbolized by a phoenix which is supposed to undergo rebirth after burning out/dying, is pretty much pertaining to what happened to her which led to her death. She unleashed her true powers but her body is already on its way to expire so she eventually did pass away.

It would be a big surprise if she gets resurrected like a phoenix would, but it's pretty obvious IMO that it might be Limalisha that's the heavily hinted successor she's going to have. Just looking at Lim and Sasha's conversations as well as Lim's internal conflict of not being strong enough to protect Elen (because she's just a normal soldier and not powerful unlike a Vanadis) is enough to tell she's being prepped for a power-up/succession plot twist. An image change might be in tow as well as some "surprises" with regards to her identity which would lead into an entirely new character "premise" for the latest volume.
