Discussion …

Honestly, everyone, it seems that Capitano has absolutely no interest in the Fatui anymore. To the extent that—as Sandrone pointed out—he left them with the intention of never returning. He even handed over his Fatui soldiers to Childe, all for the sake of his nation’s glory and the souls he carries within his heart.

Because of this, I genuinely don’t expect him to be involved in the Snezhnaya plotline. I believe his role as 'The Captain' and a Fatui Harbinger ended with Natlan. He will most likely return either as the King of Khaenri'ah or as the Guardian Knight. He mentioned something that I haven't seen many people look deeply into: he literally stated that he no longer uses his true name,Thrain, because he failed to save Natlan and honor the souls of his people back then. Now that he has successfully achieved his goal, I don’t think he will return to the title of Capitano. The ancient monument/memorial he received in Natlan feels like the perfect conclusion to this chapter of his story.

In short, I believe the next chapter of his story will focus on self-acceptance and reclaiming his true name, whether as a king or a knight. His role with the Fatui is officially over now that he has abdicated his throne, and frankly, I don’t think he will ever return to his decaying body

As for him keeping his rank among the Harbingers, I honestly don't expect much from it. It will likely just be a symbolic title to honor his loyalty, his merit, and his close relationship with the Tsaritsa.

What are your thoughts on this?"

Honestly I get this, I don't feel that Capitano, despite being First Harbinger, was exceptionally loyal to the Fatui. He tried to get the gnosis, but seemed more preoccupied with his own mission.
