Well, that was my plan all along anyway! And no, it doesn't work that way. Sheogorath's reversion to Jyggalag left the Madgod's seat in the mythic empty, and Jyggalag then essentially thrust the mantle onto the Champion of Cyrodiil, thus making it possible for there to be both a Sheogorath and a Jyggalag simultaneously. And unless you achieve CHIM, mantling is not necessarily a good thing: your identity gets sucked up into the identity of the God you're mantling, with the two of you so indistinguishable that you are made one entity. Talos mantled Lorkhan, but avoided this merging of identities because CHIM guarantees a preservation of self.
