Elder Scrolls weren't meant for mortals(like us) to understand. That's why those who read them slowly grow mad.

Speaking of Dragon Breaks, the Scrolls exist outside time. Events that happened outside linear time may have happened one after the other, or in a reverse order, or even all at once. So, seemly impossible contradictions(false) can be true. For instance: the Stormcloaks may have won the civil war, which means that the Imperials lost(a true statement). Assuming this is true, saying the Imperials won is a false statement. But both could have won, if the Scrolls say so, meaning both are true. This seems paradoxical to us, but then again, The Scrolls exist outside mortal time.
