Nowhere did I say that the games revolved around the Towers being deactivated. I said that, as a result of the events, a Tower has been deactivated in every TES game. And they've been pretty integral to the stories, like Red Mountain being the main base for House Dagoth in Morrowind, or Paarthurnax being on top of the Throat of the World.

Also, the Stone of White-Gold is the Red Diamond, which is in the Amulet of Kings. Red Diamond is (possibly) Lorkhan's crystallized blood, which dates it back to the Dawn Era. Much older than White-Gold.
