I didn't get any 'port' out of the area after killing him, and I don't know if I was supposed to, but I just ran my way out. The mobs are busy killing each other and don't aggro on you.
Hunters, you may want to put your pet on 'passive' while leaving Avalanchion's vault. Most of the mobs are preoccupied with fighting each other and won't bother you but some of them cast an aoe that WILL pull your pet and you into a big headache if you have your pet set on 'defensive'.
The reason why Avalanchion thinks he recognizes you is because he's been around as the earth elemental boss of the elemental invasion since vanilla.

The leader of the Stone Mother's forces here is the great earth elemental lord, Avalanchion. Luckily for us, the Twilight's Hammer cultists have decided to invade his lair. They're seeking to bind his elementals to their will. We will take advantage of the chaos.

With the Stonefather taken prisoner, our forces are demoralized. Normally any one of mine could take five times his number of stone troggs. But now.... I want you to head out into the field surrounding the town. Plant Stonefather Oremantle's banner near my defenders.
