I have a hypothesis while I don't have as much proof as I need, I do have logic behind most of it.
As most of you know by now if you have seen all of the Eldritch Moon cards, Emrakul has been trapped in Innistrad's moon. I say she is going to get out. Not immediately and not without fair warning, but she will get out.
What warnings? Eldrazi demons and Devils will escape from the hellmouthes of Innistrad.
Why Eldrazi demons and Devils? Because of Emrakul's presence.
But isn't she trapped in the moon? Yes, and that is why she will erupt from Innistrad.
How will she erupt from Innistrad if she is in the moon? Because Innistrad and its moon are one and the same. The visible moon is the back/underside of Innistrad.
The helvault contained thousands of demons in its small space. There are millions of devils and demons waiting to come out of the hellmouthes. This is because they are trapped beneath Innistrad, except at night, when the inverse reflection phenomenon (how the bottom of the plane is seen in the sky instead of the top) puts stress on the plane increasing the size of the hellmouth gashes and allowing more demons out from their prison on the far side of the plane. Such a phenomenon is not really all that farfetched when you consider the planar overlay in Invasion, the flying...um...the "Glimmer Moon" as it was called in The Thran and Apocalypse, and the inverted Mountains in Mercadian Masques, not to mention all the timestream trouble that stemmed from Tolaria.
As noted in this site's own article, the hellmouths are getting bigger and bigger, allowing more dark creatures out. Over time they will be big enough for Emrakul to tear herself through from the bottom to the top, causing planar damage on a massive scale when she does.
So what does everyone think? If you have counter evidence, please post it! I'd love to see if this theory is even water tight.
