Want to know what'll happen to the Dragonborn after he dies? Nothing. Nothing is what always happens with every single TES protagonists after their respective games end. With perhaps the exception of the HoK, who bitch-slapped the law and became Sheogorath.

Lorewise, none of this would happen. The Dragonborn would only do one thing, serve one prince, do one questline, be a more "normal" hero. By doing everything you can do, you break the line of plausible, and your hero fades into non-existence, as it always happened.
