What? The Last Dragonborn is NOT a Shezzarine. They are a mortal with the soul of a dragon, not the manifestation of Lorkhan, that is an absurdity. Granted they are divine, since the Greybeards make them Ysmir, Dragon of the North.

And about Shor, his mythos sounds very similar to the Norse story of Ragnoroc. Shor's return and last ride=Odin's last great battle against Loki. Keep in mind, Bethesda (most likely) based nearly all of Nordic religion and culture on Norse beliefs and Scandinavian history. Example, the migrations/invasions from Atmora and the Vikings with their violent expansions, the description of the Nords as bezerkers and the parallel ancient views of the Vikings. And then you have Hrothgar, the name of a King of Denmark from the story of Beowulf.

So Shor is probably somewhere else when you're in Sovngarde, mending his wounds and preparing for the final battle. Or, he cannot be seen by mortal eyes, but that makes no sense to me. If he cannot be seen, can he not reduce his presence so that he may appear as a shape the Dragonborn can recognize and comprehend?
