2) He didn't die in ESO, he was taken to Coldharbour then released by the Vestige.

3) You say he wasn't in the Psijics? According to his book, he was a student there: http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Mannimarco%2C_King_of_Worms

"Two brilliant students studied within the Psijics' fold.

One's heart was light and warm, the other dark and cold.

The madder latter, Mannimarco, whirled in a deathly dance"

4) Ah, so it's Morrowind. Revised!  "If you consider ESO non-canon because of lore changes, you logically have to consider  Morrowind  non-canon too, because nothing in ESO comes close to the Warp in the West."

1) In oblivion it is a High elf whom Mannimarco has possessed, not his real body.

2) His soul was torn from his body. Funny thing is, he shouldn't have a soul at that stage. He should be a lich, a walking corpse without soul, as his soul should be bound to the Helmet or other object at that stage.

3) Books are all speculation in game, from characters, especially who writes them. Many, many in game books are either false, or tell only half the truth.

4) Warp in the West is just a nickname for "hole in time", something touched on in every single game. The Elder Scrolls themselves are literally holes in the universe/time. They exist and don't exist, and have no considerable or un-considerable numbers.
