- Vol'jin's has been touched by valor.
Now, with what we have learned about Shadowlands, I came with some speculations.
We know that all or most souls now directly go to the Maw (obviously, Vol'jin has escaped that fate). Which means that anima, the most precious and "vital" ressource in the Shadowlands, has become a rarity. We know that the more powerful a soul is, the more anima it has. Vol'jin should have lots of it. We know that Vol'jin has been touched by valor, which point towards the Kyrian Covenant. We know that Bwonsamdi's home is in Ardenweald, controled by the Night Fae Covenant. Therefore, his boss might be there too. If Vol'jin has been recruited by the Kyrians, it explains why Bwonsamdi's boss would be mad that he has lost Vol'jin: it is a substantial loss of much needed anima for him/her.
Now, it gives us the reason why Bwonsamdi was upset with Vol'jin disappearance, but not much about the identity of his boss. We know that Ardenweald is rule by the Night Fae, which are lead by the Winter Queen, and we know the anima drought is pretty strong there. However, even if the Night Fae Covenant rule Ardenweald, that does not mean that there are no division. So that could be where Muhezala factors in. I really doubt that he is the Jailor, by the way, because the Jailor is just as stuck in the Maw as the damned incarcerated there, and very few have ever heard of him for that reason. Also, Bwonsamdi is not in league with Sylvanas, as I said earlier.
