I can see this as an option if you play as more of an "end justifies the means" kind of Rowan. Since like that most of the people that will have his back can't protect him. It would indeed be a fitting end for that kind of path since we know the leaders in that world are elitist and arrogant bastards. Hell they'd throw him under more to protect their power than their reputation.I have a theory that pure good guy Rowan will end up in a bad ending. Once he successfully undermines the twins so that humanity can finally defeat them. The survivors are going to be looking for someone to blame for everything that happened. Even if Rowan was ultimately working to undermine the twins the people will probably still see him as a traitor and will be calling for blood. And the nobility will be more than happy to let him take the fall and brush their own incompetence and lack of response under the rug. The only reward pure good guy Rowan will receive for saving humanity is a show trial and swift execution.
I am hopeful that a "morally good" Rowan will probably have enough support to end up as an actual hero this time or history will repeat itself and he'll be treated the same by most but his new friends will have his back. I don't think Del and Hela will be the only good (lovers) nobles around until the end. Combine that with the Fae and a certain "Statue Lady" being able to see what he does in the castle and I'm confident a good ending for the realms can be achieved.
It would be funny if they execute him anyway just for Alexia to become the next demon tho
