 * You are wrong. You plain and simply need Wraithguard even to wield it. Even Arniel shows amazement that you were still alive after having touched it without Wraithguard. And then they pissed in the wind and had Arniel wield it when he was striking the warped soul gem.


 * No. It has already been confirmed by TES canon that there is only one of each Daedric artifact in existance at any time. If they're destroyed, or the Daedric Prince simply wants it back over time, then it returns to the plane of Oblivion, until the Princes decide to send their artifacts out again.


 * Well, I suppose using the magic explanation solves everything. xD Mere speculation on both our parts though, so I'll leave that one alone.
