    Ok...IF it somehow confused voidsent energies for a primal, and IF it went out of its way to hunt the source of it down. Why would it be waiting to attack YOU instead of the thing it came to hunt down? If it was the coffin that was destroyed, why would it not leave after its destruction? If it was Diabolos or the Shadow Queen, why would it not go ahead and attack them? Why, given all the potential attack targets that would and could have been confused for primals if it was called by voidsent, WHY, would it wait...for YOU?!

    (sorry, I'm not angry at you, I'm baffled at the explanation, as much as it came from the goblin. The more I read it, the more it doesn't add up.)

The machine is literally a prototype that was 5000 years past it's scrapping, so it could be any number of things. Machines tend to break, and prototypes are made to be broken.
