I don't know who it is, but it's in some form an impersonation or a very coincidental mirror; something to play on the fact we immediately think it's Venat rather than dismissing the notion.

Mainly I think this because it's completely unlike Hydaelyn's M.O. so far. Hydaelyn largely keeps to herself unless she absolutely has to, and always appears either in the guise of Minfilia or as a disembodied voice. Venat specifically never did the Elidibus thing of manifesting externally from Hydaelyn (because it's not actually a very good idea). This is at odds with how she's behaved in the entire game thus far.

Whoever this is, it's not Venat, but we're meant to assume it is.
