Or it could just be prophetical fictional glorification-worship. Making something seem great even though it never happened. After all, the only power that could do that would be a Divine(Or Daedra), but it is said that there is no trace or history of a Divine talking to Mortals, the contrary of what that quote is saying.

He is also claiming that the land is his, which it is not. The other Aedra formed the land, and so it belongs to them. All signs point to glorification of Talos.

Back to OP, just go do a Daedric quest. I'm sure the Daedra would want to keep their Champion, who also just happens to be the last known Dragonblood mortal in Mundus, alive. Pick your favorite, or all of them. Join the Dark Brotherhood, I'm sure Sithis would also want to keep his Listener, who once more just happens to be a Dragonborn, alive. Or you can go whack a Warped Soul Gem with Keening and hope you don't get turned in to a shade. Or go pretend to do some kind of ritual where you become a lich (Go make your character have a ton of scars and facepaint and dirt, etc. after performing the ritual if you have Dawnguard)
