Hello people of the Wiki! I have this theory about the Nerevarine and his trip to Akavir. I'll try to explain it in detail, and I hope that you'll find it possible.

The Nerevarine went to Akavir to fake his own death. In my opinion, this would be much more interesting.

Reasons for thisL

1. '''He wanted to escape the fame and be a normal adventurer again. '''If I was the Nerevarine, a person who was a normal adventurer, I wouldn't want people to worship the ground I walked on. It would get annoying. So, I would publicly plan a trip to Akavir, then disappear. Have a trusted friend go with you, then when you think everyone thinks you're dead, return to the mainland with a new identity.

2. Freedom The Nerevarine is expected to act a certain way, heroic. But, let's say our Nerevarine was an assassin or thief before all this happened. Would a thief really want to be a hero all of a sudden?

3. Retirement Maybe he just wanted to retire from being the Nerevarine? I mean, a few years of that would wear anyone out! So, he faked his own death, then returned to Tamriel and lived as a farmer? A life of mead, and wheat for the reincarnation?
