Well some people would have you believe that the Tolkien Legendarium is actually set on Earth (which is quite plausible and which I would happily trust). Still, it is not impossible that Nirn is actually real, just in a Galaxy far, far away, and the two would not conflict lore-wise that much (the Magna-ge and the Ainu could be the same entities by different names). The question of Elves, Men and other races both ended up on different planets is debatable.
