That might be bending the rules of the inheritance a little bit. But whoever they are, they would still be part of the larger Septim family and should have the right to the Ruby Throne. I mean, it's not ideal but beggars can't be choosers. Getting a Septim to rule Tamriel again might be just what's needed to stop those Elves from taking over. Actually there's another issue. Not all descendants of the former Kings are worthy because apparently not all of them were born with visionary type of power.

The problem is why as I've mentioned, why would the Elder Council who had tasted true power of Sovereignty want to give it up and allow a worthy Alessia, Reman or Tiber Septim's descendants to rule over them? Wouldn't make sense unless they driven to a wall and desperate.
