In Morrowind you see representations of the Divines. They're not dead. I don't even think they're incapacitated although if my beliefs were to be swayed that's what I would lean to. They gave up tremendous power in the creation of Nirn, and they can die. But they do represent stasis so I think they're just sitting on high, basking in our prayers that feed them power and watching us mortals live and die. Martin became an avatar of Akatosh thats the only way to explain it really. How else would you justify him turning into a gigantic dragon?
