Indeed, Alduins intervention at helgen was too perfectly timed, I have a theory that the Dragonborn is actually the Worldeater Alduin reborn and that the Dragon form we see is just an empty shell, everything he does seems to be against you, yet in a way just testing you, when you witnessed him raising Solahkaniir he was fully aware of you, and honestly if he truly wanted you dead you would have had no chance against him, but rather than obliterate you he sends a weak servant of his after you which only serves to strengthen your power, also the Dragonborns abillity to devour souls doesn't yeild anything from Alduin... whos soul is absent.

I believe the prophecy about the return of the world eater is something the Dragonborn can directly effect, many say the civil war and Ulfri killing Torygg was the last sign o fthe return, but, Torygg was not the king of the Snow-Tower, the Snow-Tower has always been the Snowthroat, The Throat of the World, and it's King sits a top of it and only the Dragonborn can dethrone him -'J
