The elves tend to be a tad bit too prideful to the point where the gods eventually get involved to knock them around. The Dwemer enslaved the Falmer after the latter tried to wipe out the Nords and failed, and look where they are now? Similarly, the Dark Elves enslaved the Argonians, and yet the ensuing events after Morrowind and Oblivion eventually led to the Red Mountain erupting and their great empire in Morrowind suffering one catastrophe after another, such as Argonian slave revolts. The Ayleids themselves worshipped the Daedric princes and enslaved the humans, and the gods eventually got pissed and helped a human slave woman overthrow their mighty empire. I'm pretty sure that something nasty will befall the Thalmor soon enough. Whether it's an assault by a rebuilt Maomer fleet or an assault by a new Sload Necromancer army, only time will tell. But the Thalmor's victories won't last for long. They failed to defeat the Empire, and now, either the Empire or the Stormcloaks have the Dragonborn in their possession. The Stormcloaks winning with the Dragonborn against the Thalmor is a long-shot, but the Empire can sure as hell win with the Dragonborn complimenting the Empire's resources and manpower with the power to tame and ride dragons. It's like Miraak, but on the Empire's side. That could really help the Empire rebuild and get the advantage against the Thalmor once again. It seems that if the gods aren't busy ripping the elves a new asshole to breathe out of, they were busy signing pacts with men and helping them rule the continent. The same Amulet of Kings that Alessia received was the same one Martin Septim used to become one with Akatosh. It seems that the gods of Elder Scrolls favor men over mer. Also, Paarthurnax was waiting at the Throat of the World for Alduin. No one else. That's why the Aedric gods didn't bother him. He had his own vigil to stick to, since Alduin could pop out anytime. I'm sorry, where are you getting all of this from? None of the gods have actually done anything of interest for any race, really, save for Dibella and Akatosh, and neither of them did much to help.

Look, the point is, Talos is not confirmed to be a deity, in terms of lore. Hell, the mortal Talos was a Shezarrine, so the "god" Talos could be Lorkhan for all we know.
