"My brethren were gifted with a vision, a terrible one which showed unto us the image of the God-Emperor, who would stride out from the Hidden Lands and be welcomed as Liberator only to take the Holiest of Holies by shedding the blood of the most innocent.
"The very mention of his name shall make kings tremble, stop the heart of an Emperor and cause that which was endless to end.
Manetas was called the God-Emperor in the distant future, that was averted with his imprisonment. Calcestus and Manetas had the same facial structure except Manetas looked better. It makes sense that Calmemnon will have the face of his father and therefore Manetas's as well.
Who else but Calmemnon would be able to stop the heart and kill Emperor Scipio, especially if he's looking at the face of a young Calcestus.

In his wake an entire people shall be liberated, their curse lifted but at the cost of their brother; while another is damned forever more in the eyes of all.
This sounds like dwarves but it isn't. It's the val'Tensen. They were cursed to never be allowed to enter Paradise until their honor is returned for breaking their vow. And I'm thinking the val'Virden and the val'Emman will be damned because they pose a threat to the Destroyer. The brother of Hurrian is Nier.

Twelve Keys of man that unlocks the Throne of Man. The Gift of Illiir and supposedly allows for powerful compulsion magic.

"But beware – though called savior by many and his followers legion, his true name is the Destroyer! The Enslaver of Humanity! None may stay his hand but the ember that is bereft of fire and even then it may not be enough, for when faith fails in one, faith will fail in us all!
The fire reference say Nierite to me. Perhaps the damned Nierites from earlier or Leonydas himself. This is also saying that while it will look like Calmemnon it doesn't actually mean it will be him. I mean we have dealt with plenty of doppelgangers. It could be someone pretending to be him, for example the Voiceless Ones. I mention them because Leonydas himself had one of the Twelve Keys of Man. It doesn't mention if he took it with him to the Citadel of Silence but I wouldn't put it past him to carry it on him wherever he went rather than keep it safe in one place.
Anyway to have all 12 Keys you had to have gotten 1 from Leonydas.
I will mention one thing from the Prophecy given in the Words of the Seer and it shouldn't be considered a spoiler. The Destroyer is called a Stranger in that prophecy. Calmemnon is not a stranger. Any Noble Born would have heard of him. Any Coryani citizen would have heard of him. Any member of a secret society would have heard of his leading a mission into Dar Zhan Vor. So again my vote is on a Calmemnon doppelganger.
