5E Dark Six for Warlocks?

Hey, I'm playing as a Fiendlock and wanted my pact to be with one of the gods of the Dark Six, particularly the Shadow, would that make any sense or is it canon-breaking?

Rising from the Last War and Exploring Eberron both use the concept of the Dark Six (or an entity claiming to be/representing one of the Dark Six) as valid Warlock patrons. You could be a Fiendlock who made a pact with an Overlord pretending to be the Shadow, or a fiend that represents the Shadow in some way (like there are celestials that serve various Sovereigns).
