Remain vigilant.... =P Wait for new blights? It's right there in the lore, the blights wont just stop and if they do then the order is not needed any more.

No, it's right there in the lore that the Blights might or might not stop. And since in one of the books it's stated that the Grey Wardens know that the Old Gods really are the archdemons, and that the Wardens know where they are, it seems to me that the Blights will either stop (if other Dragons are an unworkable substitute) or drop off in menace (if they were as good, the darkspawn would probably search those out) when the other two Old Gods die.

Die young?

They'll fight demons. Demons have trouble battling the taint.

But more to the point part of the joining ritual involves archdemon blood... so eventually they'll run out of Grey Wardens the way we know them. They'll be Wardens in Name Only.

Not to worry. I doubt Blights are going anywhere for a while and it's not like Thedas remains respectful of their sacrifices for long. They'll be here and largely marginalized for a long time to come.

Mages can magically treat your run-of-the-mill Darkspawn blood to work as well.

What would the Grey Wardens do once all the Blights are defeated?

All they wanna do is a zoom-zoom-zoom and a boom-boom.

Just shake their rump.

Hopefully some group of mages in their quest for unlimited power will unwittingly repeat history by unleashing the shadow, and lightspawn on Thedas.

Turn into Reapers.

What if to destroy the dark spawn the wardens would have to sacrifice themselves. Do you think they would do it?

Or all the darkspawn go nuts and zerg rush the surface, in a neverending hell of a blight that makes what Orzammar faces on a day-to-day basis look like the good ol' days.

Plus, if the OGB exists, the darkspawn might go after him!

The rite to even become a Warden has a high chance of immediately killing you.  Those who become Wardens are haunted by nightmares and taint.  They're also guaranteed an early - likely painful - death.  And joining the order itself pretty much involves giving up your life for the order.  I'd say most (if not all) Wardens are well past the point of being able to answer that question affirmatively.

If Ducan's the poster child for how recruitment works, they're all there because they were scammed into it, and found out that their choices with the Joining devolve to (i) maybe death by darkspawn blood or (ii) certainly death by sword-through-the-colon.

I can imagine that lots of Wardens might not be very keen on the whole self-sacrifice bit, even if they're making the best of their lot.
