The elves call him Auri-El, and by all accounts Auri-El killed Lorkhan, and shot his heart across Tamriel with Auri-El's bow, and the heart landed and became red mountain. You can't be Dragonborn from your parents, you can get dragonblood from your parents. That's why the Septim line could wear the Amulet of Kings, because the received the dragonblood from Tiber. Kirkbride, and Skyrim, say otherwise.

"You guessed it. The Arena is a collection of pseudo-imagos, all the way down to the core. Lorkhan is Akatosh, the Dragon God of Time is the Missing God of Change."

The symoblic mimcry between the statue of talos, and the shrine of akatosh, in Skyrim, cannot be ignored. Especially when combed with Kirkbride's own words.

"You can't be Dragonborn from your parents, you can get dragonblood from your parents. That's why the Septim line could wear the Amulet of Kings, because the received the dragonblood from Tiber."

Except that the only emperor who was directly realted to Tiber was Pelagius the first, the second emperor.

All other emperors in the Septim line came from Tibers brother, who was not dragonborn.
