This has got to be the work of the inside RMT circle, farming SolA for max profit. No doubt about it. Good work!

A lot of people have said it, but this is a very common bug. It's usually caused by entering a zone at the same time as someone else, but not always. When you loaded the zone, you didn't get the information for this player for whatever reason. You can't see them, you can't /who them, and if they kill something you'll get the unseen hand message. They will show up on /who all though, since that's looking at server info as opposed to zone info. If you camped out and back in, you'd be able to see them fine.

I like how GM conspiracy is the first goto reasoning behind any bugs or odd happenings.

There are less people than you can count on one hand that have the commands to do this using GM powers, which are all tracked. After years of tin foil hats and conspiracy theories I guarantee those few people have no desire to play a normal character and steal your Sola loots.

GMs too busy to have time to abuse power

As far as the "unseen hand", perhaps you were bugged, and this "unseen hand" message is the default message that is displayed by the server when something dies from damage from a person that isn't registering on your client. So, maybe, the guy was bugged out and not displaying in zone yet standing there the whole time, and dropped a massive nuke on it or something that killed it but since your client was all like lolhesnothere it just displayed a "well something killed it" message.
This is exactly it. Your local client did not have an entity for Natoria. It received data from the zoneserver regarding combat, etc., but had no clue who the source was, so it displays the unseen hand message. You likely would not have seen anything from that person in /say, /auc, /ooc, /em, /shout etc since those communications are handled by the zoneserver and not the worldserver. Tells are handled at a global level and thus work properly, same goes for /who all.
