Since 1E 700, no word had been heard of the Dwemer, with the notable exception of Yagrum Bagarn, who resided in the Corprusarium of Tel Fyr. Apparently, he was absent from the Mortal Plane at the time of the disappearance, visiting an Outer Realm, an alternate dimension. His three thousand years of exploration and five hundred years of investigation have yielded no leads on the presence of his people on Mundus or any other plane of existence currently known.

It is also known that Kagrenac devised a set of tools: Sunder, Keening and Wraithguard to manipulate the Heart of Lorkhan and instill divinity to his people and make them immortal, but the spell backfired and caused all Dwemer to vanish.

I have a feeling that Kagrenac (unknowingly) triggered CHIM when he tapped into the Heart of Lorkhan with his tools... And that CHIM attempt failed... And it is known that failure of CHIM, in a worse case scenario, can result in the user erasing themselves from existance, or "Zero Summing".

That means the Dwemer have been completely removed from existence, which explains why Yagrum Bagarn searched for them for centuries and never found them on any plane of existence.

The only thing that I didn't understand is Arniel Gane's disappearance? Has he caused a CHIM that made him disappear physically from Nirn and made him somehow immortal by binding his "shade" to the Dragonborn?

What are your thoughts? And feel free to correct me if I'm wrong on what I wrote above.
