"The time I killed him?" I didn't take it out of context at all, Vivec explicitly mentions that he killed Tiber Septim. I'd bet that was one of the so-called terms, though how that works I don't know. And if you were to take all that is said in the in-game books as truth, well, then the Underking is simultaneously both Zurin Arctus and Wulfharth, Tiber Septim both did and did not kill Cuhlecain and came from both Atmora and Alcaire. They are written in the perspective of the people of Tamriel who may just be making a few "adjustments" to fit the will of some authority, much as it has been in real life. The "Tiber Septim died in his bed" thing might just be one such "adjustment". Then again, the exact nature of Tiber Septim/Talos isn't exactly known, there are quite a few theories, hell the interview even mentions his different "incarnations". Oh and you might be misunderstanding my take on Lorkhan's involvment. I consider him involved by extension of his Heart which the discovery of the nature of most likely set about the Dwemer creating Numidium. To say that his Heart wasn't involved is like saying that Anti-Semitism wasn't involved in the Holocaust.
