I don't know...if/when Solas is defeated/changes his mind about the CRAZY maybe he'll just use some nifty Elvhen magic to make everyone forget (please read that as half joking). Or...maybe some new even worse enemy (the Titans, Elgar'nan, Morrigan/Mythal on a vengeance rampage, Reapers, Darth Revan) will rear its ugly head, so no one will have time to punish the elves.
That being said, there is no reason to believe the elves couldn't hold their own against shem forces in the aftermath of whatever happens with Solas. They may have the eluvian network, fancy ancient elven armor and weapons caches, sentinel elves, guerrilla warfare training from The Dread Wolf, and possibly freed elven circle mages all at their disposal. I know we are accustomed to thinking of elves as weak victims, but maybe this time they will rise up and truly never again submit. With the truth coming out about Ameridan, the reintroduction of the Canticle of Shartan, Briala sitting as a Marquise of the Dales, AND Solas' CRAZY to top it off, the elves are going to be high on Elven Pride in my world state.
At least there is probably an eluvian leading to someplace so far away where the elves could safely hide from their enemies indefinitely. Who knows what lies beyond the edges of the map of Thedas? Maybe that's where all the servants went when they disappeared.
On the contrary, there is a reason to believe that the Elves will not be able to hold their own against their new found enemies. You have the entirety of Thedas, EVERY country which are ruled by Humans attacking them, the Grey Wardens from Anderfels coming in to wipe them out while assisting the Chantry in their new Exalted marches, the entire Qunari legions and the Dwarves from underground attacking them! All on a regular basis.
Also, let's not forget that the Circles of Magi were once temples of the Tevinter Imperium and the Dwarves used to have gollums at their disposal. Both the Dwarves and the Tevinters were once THE most powerul forces in the world and the Qunari are currently more powerful than any force on Thedas.
So if the Tevinter Imperium and the Dwarves were to regain their former power even in the slightest combined with the Qunari joining them in their crusade against the Elves and the fact that they will be having the Grey Wardens joining the others and every Human nation on Thedas will be declaring war with them and the Chantry will be leading countless exalted marches against them, that is a force that not even Fen'Harel or Corypheus or both would be able to stop.
In other words, THE ELVES ARE COMPLETELY SCREWED!! Especially if the Tevinters regain some of their former power and lead the new coalition into wherever the Elves go to with their Eluvians.
The crocks of the matter is that we might very well see the end of the Elves as a species or beaten completely into submission with slavery being A-Ok with everyone on Thedas, the destruction of the Arlathan forest and any Elven artifact found unless after the events of DA4 or when Solas is stopped.
Unless someone, mainly the protagonist of DA4 that we will be playing as will have enough influence to prevent such a catastrophic event that awaits the Elves and Elf-Blooded humans for that matter after Solas' defeat, then it is curtains for the Elves and only the Elf-Blooded Humans will survive, but will be the new target for discrimination and abuse in their Elven parent's place.
Truth be told and sad!
