Hehe. One of their gods wasnt actually divine? (And yet, was worshipeed after death). Someone should tell the Thalmor, theyll want to stop that sort of nonsense :P

As for the rest - just remember that it is Out-of-Game, and MK's work is not take-everything-as-literal-truth canon.

(Some in-game ones cannot either, for example - Sheogorath was in Aetherius once upon a time (Daggerfall), and Akatosh was just some local deity in some of the many city-states in the same game. (Just a local dragon, as it were).
