@Galraen

I'm not even going against the series' open-ended nature, or that people can have opinions of their own. It is just that game mechanics =/= lore

You can believe what you will, no-one's stopping you there. However, there's already evidence in the Lore (and games) that "killing" a Daedric Prince isn't possible.

@Pelinal Whitestrake

However, despite being a self-proclaimed "Lore-expert", you need to understand that Lore =/= 100% accurate. The very definition of the word "Lore" contains nothing about it being word-of-god. Even MK himself stated once that the Lore isn't meant to be taken for granted (look up on the Imperial Library)

It's just plain splitting-hairs to argue whether it was the Vestige or the divine power itself that "wounded" Molag Bal. What's obvious is that the power granted to the Vestige wasn't even his/her own (lost to the Vestige after using it against Molag Bal).

Lore is only made accurate in the moment that its material is purposely featured by Bethesda in the game's world/story itself.

There's so much more to pointlessly argue, like how the Last Dragonborn is only the 3rd most powerful Dragonborn ever. Talos' Thu'um could knock large doors down (if not also structures) because he was simply the most powerful Dragonborn in history. The Greybeards could nearly kill people by simply talking in Dovahzul (which is actually demonstrated, considering it is stated in-game that only the Dragonborn could withstand it with no training).
