After every completing Daedric quest? Hmm....

I've always thought it goes something like this:

Presumably, my Nord has to battle some aspect of himself representing his dedication to the various Daedric Princes after he dies. Should he fall to one of them, his 'vanquisher' (who assumes his memories and personality, as they are all merely manifestations of himself) fights the next one in line, and so on and so on....

When the dust settles, it's between Hermaeus Mora, Nocturnal and Hircine. My Nord battles his wolf spirit, which is considerably more badass than in the mission to cure the Dragonborn of lycanthropy, while also fighting some horrid, indescribable shadow creature representing Nocturnal and a wretched, formless abomination of eyes, fangs and tentacles representing Hermaeus Mora, satisfying the Nord's need for battle, the servant of Nocturnal's need for a clever, stealthy enemy to overcome and outwit, the servant of Hircine's need to face the bestial aspect within his own soul while also using that power to his own advantage, and whatever the hell is needed to best a powerful beast of Hermaeus Mora. This battle rages on for eternity, with Hircine's wolves, Nocturnal's shadow creatures and Hermaeus Mora's Lovecraftian horrors constantly falling to the Dragonborn but rising again with the next 'dawn' of whatever realm in which this endless conflict occurs. My dude is satisfied with this arrangement, as it affords him considerably more freedom than serving a Daedric Prince would

But hey, that's just me talking....
