I mean, technically the dragonborn is too. Nerevar is granted power by Lorkhan, making him a very small aspect of Lorkhan. Lorkhan is eventually reincarnated as Shor/Shezarr, an aspect of Talos, and to be Dragonborn is to be a mortal aspect of Talos and Akatosh.

Seriously, even if it had the potential energy still in it, there's a very easy fix for that pending distaster, other than sacrificing souls for keeping it up there. They should have chipped it into smaller pieces and transported those to the ground, until the meteor was no more. They've done it before, when they built the ministry of truth.

[@DraphEnjoyer]

Turning a meteor that could potentially destroy the entire continent into a floating jail is quite possibly the most “Dunmer” thing imaginable

[@desired397]

I love how they deal with this in ESO, basically their explanation is that everyone knew it was a bad idea, Sotha Sil and Almalexia thought it was stupid stunt and a waste of energy but Vivec apparently loved to use/show off his godly powers and thought it would be cool to just leave it there in an attempt to make the people of Morrowind worship him more. Personally I love Vivec in ESO because in it they really make Vivec ACT like a playboy poet (think Jaskier/ Dandelion from the Witcher series if he suddenly became a god) before he becomes a bit wiser over the hundreds of years between ESO and Morrowind.

so the Nerevarine is a canon male since Neloth met him in person well that a bit lame. Still great we finally hear something about our amazing hero besides he just fucked off, I rather hear that he was a wind racer then just forget he was a thing.

[@patterofheads256]

"He" likely refers to Indroil Nerevar a hero and saint that existed in Dunmer lore since before they were even known as the Dunmer, of which the Nerevarine was the reincarnation. With that said, I would like to know what happened to the Nerevarine during his travels to Akavir (which is allegedly where he fucked off to) and whether or not he killed Vivec the Poet.

[@Leonardo01569]

If you played Morrowind and killed Vivec, Nerevarine killed Vivec. If not, Vivec simply desapeared.

@@patterofheads256 he says "the nerevarine saved us" not nerevar so he basically refer to the actual nerevarine not indoril nerevar. The telvannis are ignorant about the prophecy or just straight up not care, you can see this when you ask neloth to name you as hortator he claimed that nobody tell him about this sort of thing.

first 20 seconds ıof that dialogue is a disaster. Morrowind isn't made up of Vvardenfell. Neloth mentioning the puny Ald'ruhn over Mournhold makes no sense. Not only because him praising a Redoran city as a Telvanni doesn't fit his character, but also because Mournhold is a majestic ancient city and was the actual capital of Morrowind. Dialogue was written as if the map of ES:III was all of Morrowind when the mainland Morrowind is as big as Vvardenfell. Likewise the Argonian invasion never reached Vvardenfell. Anyway I'm just sad that the lore gets streamlined in order not to confuse normies.

Idiotic. Emblematic of how far Bethesda has fallen. Why did he keep talking about Vvardenfell as if it was all of Morrowind? Why did he talk about Vivec and Ald-ruhn as marvels of Dunmer accomplishment, when the guy was a Telvanni wizard-lord? He would have had contempt for both Redoran's shitty little seat and the Temple's main city. He's been alive for hundreds of years, and he's never visited the mainland? Not to mention all of the typos stuffed into the captions for this one little dialogue.
