I'm Guessing it's the hand, Soggoth The slitherer.
Though im still expecting a few expansions down the line algalon recruits people to take on them all combined as azatoth or some such thing.
Have they ever defined what an old god is? like the naaru are beings composed of the light, are the old gods considered immensely powerful demons? do they align with a certain form of magic or energy?
I know its been said we can never truly beat and excorcise them 100% but since all that jazz with cthun w'eve taken on kiljaeden and the lich king and numerous demigods and even malygos. Hell, wasn't algalon sent BECAUSE we were breaking out limits so to speak?
My guess is sargeras might be the final boss, but some amalgamation of all the old god "parts" will form into some ff9 osmos type 'secret' big bad.

Err no, Algalon was sent because we killed Loken who IIRC was somesort of "ultimate watcher" whose death triggered an automated distress call. And we killed Loken because he had sided with Yogg-Saron.
So Algalon comes to Ulduar and goes all like, "Titan defenses mostly eradicated, not good, requesting nuking of a massive scale." and well that would be bad for us so we're like "nuh-uh sister" and promptly kick his ass and he's like "Oh man I guess you have more spunk in ya than you look, go save your puny little world mortals with my blessing, here's a mcguffin."
