The creature is an Arimaspian. A creature similar to a cyclops in Greek myth (but human sized) that lived at the base of the mountains that gold hoarding griffons (two bits) dwell on top of, and were always at war with. They stole gold from griffons and created a river of it at the base of the mountain, which apparently went into the realm of Hades (which this episode called the abyss, hint hint).

This episode was just FULL of vague Greek myth.

But no, it wasn't Grogar. But the show may claim at some point it was his handiwork that spurred the Arimaspoi on to do that. I also guess that Grogar taught the S5E1 villain that insane cutie mark stealing spell. Could all be leading up to Grogar!!... I hope...
