I thought that the one with Dror was our captor, but maybe it's the one we fought the cambions with. The narrator tells you it's the mind flayer that was on the ship, I guess it's a little vague
The Narrator says that mind flayer near Ragzlin isn't your captor.
Then the first time Ragzlin asks who killed it it shows you this memory:
Then Dror asks a second time and the mind flayer responds with this memory:
So we don't have clawed hands first off. And we never opened a holding pod except Shadowheart's. So is the illithid making it up? Did Orin (or another doppleganger) pretend to be us? Those are my two guesses at what's happening.
I could be talking crazy here, but in regards to the clawed hand situation - perhaps the mind flayer is seeing it's own hand opening a holding pod? I don't know if more context is given in-game, but based on the quotes you provided it doesn't explicitly state that the face belongs to the claw-handed figure. Maybe the memory you see is of the mind flayer opening your pod?
I hadn't thought of that! Good call. It's very ambiguous no matter how you read it.
