It was obviously the abomination guard.
He is the only non ghost/memory npc present during quest which is very suspicious, then as you approach the hold
"Me guard door!" he proudly proclaims, the door to what you may ask? The door to Voljin's missing memories. We have been fooled this entire time, and there he is "guarding the door", the location where the memories were sealed and keeping an eye on his investment Sylvanas and making sure that we don't learn the truth.

The truth is out there!

  • The Lies of a LoaLevel 50

    Hidden memories, spirits attackin' us for investigating, and a long road of bodies in da wake of me makin' Sylvanas warchief. I be thinkin' it time ya speak with Ol' Bwonsamdi. Odd as it sounds, dis don't seem like his style. Dat don't mean he not be behind it. Ya best work with Talanji.
