Huh. While wherever that is (Tazeem?) looks in a lot better shape than it was at the end of BFZ block - I suppose the wild mana of the Roil heals the land pretty well - I'm suspicious of whom that voice is supposed to be. I think it's meant to be Nahiri - or Nissa? Maybe it's her destiny as an animist to make Zendikar rise again? - but "tempered in silver and silence" sounds remarkably like someone who's been doing this whole lonely-vigil-inside-a-silver-moon thing. And I can see that voice being representative of the "Emeria" that appeared in people's heads.

But given the previously announced no Eldrazi in the set and the mention of the Spark implying a planeswalker, I'm sure it's not actually Emrakul.
Psst, check the second page of Custom Card Contests & Games! Because of the daily contests, a lot of games fall down to there.

This definitely sounds like Nahiri to me. 'Tempered by silver and silence' = 'trapped in the Helvault'. Remember, it's made out of a chunk of Innistrad's moon, which is in turn made out of silver. Nahiri's perception of being betrayed by Sorin and Ugin is another point in favor, as is lithomancy / stone magic being part of her power set.

Anyway, should be interesting. Shadows Over Innistrad block had a big theme of Nahiri getting revenge against Sorin.... only for Sorin and Nahiri to pop up again in War of the Spark without much explanation. Would be nice to get some progression on that plot thread.

Considering who posted the spoilers for those two cards, it is pretty safe to assume that they were official spoilers.
