Look at it like this, say there was a Nord hero like Ysgramor, but unlike Ysgramor this Nord loathed the Nordic Gods. Would he go to Sovngarde? I'd hope not.

And say there is a Breton hero of Skyrim who lived a Nordic lifestyle and worshipped Nordic gods. Would it be fair if he wasn't alowed entrance into Sovngarde when he died? If that Breton hero of Skyrim  happened to be the Dragonborn, he'd just kill everyone and claim Sovngarde as his own.

lulz.
