The thing about shivering isles i mention is the fact that the dlc came out after the core game. In retrospect it should be assumed that that the dlc isn't really canon to the events of the base game. Because what if people didn't play shivering isles? you can't just say yea hero of kvatch became the new sheogorath not to mention the fact there was a choice factor in freeing sheogorath from his madness cycle. So when you start to think about it it's about as similar to the civil war questline too many choices and variables to really assume if it's even canon. Not to mention the fact bethesda never usually chooses sides on things like this. It's left open to us, as the gamers to make our own story which includes whether he was the new sheogorath or not.
