Lorkhan (Or Shor) died after tricking the Divines into making Mundus (or making it himself). You fought Tsun, God Of Trials in Sovngarde, and although he's essential, you can mortally wound him. And Elder Scrolls can pull some funky shit, it wouldn't surprise me if 'proper' tampering would yield results such as erasing mankind from history, or perhaps only Talos, therefore technically killing a Divine.
