My guesses on the token are it being either Marit Lage, or Kaldra. Both heavily impacted the Lore of their sets, and both are rather iconic for their sets as well.
The only issue with Kaldra is I think there's a lower probability of using 3 slots on it, though still existing.
As for the token, it basically falls to Kaldra (never in paper), Voja (never in paper), and Marit Lage (limited availability as a release promo of a not quite loved set).
Based on relevance to Storylines, I somehow get the feeling it's going to be just the Helm of Kaldra (because it references the token) and the Kaldra token.
I'm not well-versed in the older lore, but I think Marit Lage has always pretty much being only frozen underwater and Voja didn't play as huge a role as Kaldra (even if Kaldra didn't last that long itself, it was a major plot point for a while).
Oh, and on the way the phrased it (fifteen premium cards and one token), I don't think the token is foiled (you would think they would emphasized on it more if it was foiled, since I think only Marit Lage and the Foil Helvault Tokens had that treatment so far).

That'd be even worse if it was the Kaldra set, and they blew all three art slots on it.
But I would like a Kaldra token... oh wait, I printed one off using the MTGO art, never mind.
The first thing I thought when looking at the spoiled art was Ponder..
It seems sort of similar to the original Lorwyn art, but now with Momir Vig on it (to make ik more 'lore'?)

Well all three equipment have a promo version already so maybe they just want to print the token?
I hope it includes Phyrexian Arena (with new art) to represent the climax of the Weatherlight Saga, but they'll probably give us an even more desired reprint - Legacy Weapon.

What irks me are only THREE cards with new art. It used to be at least six....
To be fair, these are supposedly going to be depicting major storyline moments, so they might not want to change the art too much for the ones that really nailed their scenes.

MMM Karona? I assume that one is an important piece of MTG Lore, (Considering Akroma has just being reprinted in the last ftv).
Reprint Akroma again
That sucks about the 3 new arts, should be a lot more. Especially given the flavor of this one. And given their direction with depicting lore on the cards. That said, plenty of old cards did depict the story pretty well. Everything I'm hoping for is on the damned reserved list. (mostly Radiant and Barrin)
Jeez they are going all out.
Surprise bans, conspiracy new set, SOI and Eldritch moon, FTV and eternal masters, it feels like their announcement team got themselves hammers with the new stuff and started running rampant whacking everybody.
Summer 2016 - the year WotC bankrupted their players with too many releases.

Re: Barrin, I will be surprised if Obliterate is not in this set.
Radiant, I dunno... maybe Catastrophe? That card really needs a reprint. It's not RL, is it?

The bad news is that Golgothian Sylex can't be reprinted.
Such an important part of MtG lore, but such a terrible card.

Yeah right.
Symbol is half a scroll, maybe a merchant scroll reprint on the cards? I see a scroll basically...
wonder what the half of the expansion symbol means.

Vindicate seems indeed a strong bet.
Myojin of Night's Reach could also be another since she had a part in Kamigawa and Time Spiral
Nicol Bolas definitly needs something related
No,and no more.
Let this great clan rest in peace (2001-2011)
Yes.
His foil is *very* pricey, so it very well may be Momir Vig, Simic Visionary, and not something else.
