The only thing I can think of is the whatchamacallum's, the cursed Sher'tul-created race. When they show you their name, and it's a sci-fi/fantasy word? I'm kind of tempted to hold off on giving them the last yeti muscle until after the end of the game just to see what happens there...
Alternatively, if someone feels like code-diving, it's probably possible to look for something similar to how the post-game Staff of Absorption works in AoA.
I don't think they were created by the Sher'Tul, they mention being created by actual gods, that would make them some kind of brother race to the Sher'Tul. Whereas the Sher'Tul had one creator, they appear to have been design by committee. (And the word you get when you read the tablet originally is "Weissi" for their name, iirc. And yes, that is the only thing that occurred to me that might change)
Also... looking at the lore from the Sunwall Observatory. It can NOT be a coincidence that the stars going out there have the same names as the gods. They mention that Gerlyk-P has gone out and that Amathkel-N appears to be on the verge of doing so (And I imagine does once the Kruk Champion kills the Sher'Tul priest), and that another Star/God, Alors has flared back into life. Related to the Weissi?
