I mean he isn't a Nord nor does he follow Nordic values and principles, shouldn't he be in anyone's or everyone's afterlife? Alduin is the 'World Eater' or the Nordic God of Destruction, thus it would make sense for him to feed of the souls of those who belive in him, those whom he has power over. Fair enough but the thing is he can end the whole world not just the "Nord world". He isn't just a threat to the Nords.So my question is why does he limit himself to Sovngarde. He doesn't have "power" over the Nords. He never gains control but he terrorizes Sovngarde. Someone answered my question, I forgot who, and said it was because that one Dragon Priest created the portal for Alduin. That answer makes more sense. Perhaps he was feeding on the Nords first out of spite...they are the ones who banished him through time, afterall. At least that's my opnion, spite and anger and vengence - although the whole Dragon Priest thing makes sense, too, I like mine better. It seems to fit Alduin's persona. And yet the Dragon Priests were ( it is probably safe to bet) Nords so Nahkarinn would make a portal to Sovernguard. Although I agree that Alduin does seem spiteful especially when you factor in that the dragon rule was overthrown by the nords and he himself banished by them.

Thus he's probably pretty pissed with them for ruining his cushy life.
