She just sort of left. Illidan was her only drive and pretty much her only purpose. After she helped kill him, she left.

When Illidan dies, she says:
"He [Illidan] is right. I feel nothing. I am...nothing."

One may guess that she went into a deep depression, lost faith in her own life, and died in the forgotten lands of Shadowmoon Valley. Or she could've headed back to Tanaris to enjoy the beach and drink some milk. It is unclear. I'm guessing Blizzard left it open ended in hopes of being able to bring her back.

tl;dr her location/status is unknown.

She was in Ashvenvale, The Broken Isles, Lordaeron,a part of Outland in Warcraft III,and then in World of Warcraft she was found in Shadowmoon Valley and she killed Illidan with the help of Akama.
She was later found with the other Night Elves leading a new Warden Force for the Night Elves, and then her brother Jarod showed and she went insane and killed the Highborne.
She was then chased off and no-one wants to be with her, and her younger brother leads the Wardens to capture her.

In the novell wolfheart she rejoins the night elves and starts training new Wardens. A Highbourne was found dead and Maiev took on the duty to find their murderer. It was later found out that she was the murderer all along. She had decided to kill anyone who she did not like which included the Highbourne and Malfurion. She saw Malfurion responsible for mistreating Teldrassil and removing the kal'doreis immortality. Her brother eventually found out about this freed Malfurion and chased of Maiev while Malfurion freed the Highbourne. Before she vanished she promised that she would come back and restore the night elves to their greatness.

does anybody lnow what happened to maiev shadowsong?
Info was taken from WoWPedia
Wolfheart

Searching for something to live for following Illidan's death, Maiev left Outland and journeyed to Darnassus to rejoin her people. Despite her role in leaving Tyrande for dead during their venture into the Eastern Kingdoms, she was permitted to return to Darnassus to begin training a new generation of Watchers, some of whom were fanatically loyal to Maiev and her cause. When Malfurion and Tyrande allowed for the Highborne and the Worgen to live in Darnassus, Maiev was secretly outraged — despising the Highborne for their part in the War of the Ancients, and the other races of the Alliance for bringing the night elves into their affairs.

Around this time her brother, Jarod Shadowsong, returned to night elf society after ten thousand years of self-imposed exile. Seeing her little brother's desire for a simple life, while he could have been the leader of the night elves, was shameful in her opinion. To her, his seclusion was an abandonment of his duty to his people. Though the reunion between the Shadowsong siblings started off bitter, Maiev eventually softened her demeanor towards her brother when he sympathized with the hard choices she had to make in order to fulfill her duties. She still felt proud of Jarod and even thought she could manipulate him as a puppet for her own ends.

When the Highborne mage Thera'brin was assassinated and his corpse was found by the Watchers' training grounds, it seemed to be intended to impute the Watchers. Maiev offered her services to investigate the matter and bring the murderer to justice, to which Malfurion and Tyrande consented. In truth however, she was secretly the one responsible for the Highborne killings. Maiev had planned to slaughter the Highborne and their leaders first, and then give Malfurion a slow rotting death. In her opinion, Malfurion was guilty of the same arrogance that his twin, Illidan, displayed. By believing that he knew what was best for the night elf people, she felt Malfurion condemned them by not having Teldrassil properly blessed, thus taking away their immortality. She also despised him for forgiving the Highborne and accepting them back into night elf society. It is suspected that the trauma caused by years of dedication to her duty, combined with the torture inflicted upon her when she was Illidan's prisoner had finally driven her insane. Now she has become a megalomaniac who deludes herself into believing that only she can exact "justice" on those she deems guilty. Though her ability to mask such madness is a credit to her skills as a survivor.

Jarod Shadowsong later freed Malfurion and joined him in confronting Maiev and her Watchers. Jarod distracted Maiev while Malfurion was rescuing the Highborne, whom Maiev had captured in a deadly trap. Jarod subsequently drove Maiev off, unable to kill his own sister. The Highborne were safe, and most of the new Watchers were dead, though their mistress had vanished into the night. Maiev has vowed that she will be the one to restore the night elves to greatness.
 
Well, yeah after the whole Highborne deaths thingye she left and vowed to return to *restore* the Kaldorei civilization to greatness and stuff like that:D (mistrust to other races included in the package:3). Well I hope to see her sometime in the near future:) She's one of my fav characters of the NE race.
Justice shall be done!
