Of course Alduin might be dead just like Lorkhan, so maybe we'll see little Alduin shards start popping up and get some Alduinine minor antagonists. Actually... that might be kind cool. My point is that this quote is stating that the Dovahkiin was in fact sent to stop the eating of the world, not the Dov reclamation.
