the dovahkiin doesn't dies... after kill alduin, alduins souls has returned to akatosh, and after this, the dovahkiin wons his place on sovngarde... the last dragonborn will live in there forever...

"When formally greeting the Last Dragonborn, the Greybeards name them Ysmir, Dragon of the North. The same title was held by Talos and Wulfharth."

because on earth the Dovahkiin would never have his divine glory, and how the gods promise that he would have his reward, he ascended into heaven and lived with them ... but never worshiped as a god on earth ... the last dragonborn lived forever...
