It wouldn't be the first time this sort of thing has happened. During Parts II and III, Reyvan was played and created by Jason Skywalker, but he stopped posting, so I handed the role over to JediMaster12 for the remainder of Part III and the whole of Part IV, and I took over him from Part V onwards. He's fine with it now, even though noone cleared it with him at the time.

It's also possible that if you send him a private message, he'll get an email notification, prompting him to come back.

You could also leave it on a cliffhanger and make reference to it in Part VII.
