Having Jyggalag as the Daedric Prince that guides the prisoner is a really interesting idea, because as we all know, he is the daedric prince of order. However, that title on its own is a bit of a paradox, since daedric princes were born from the clash of Anu (endless stagnation; pure order) and Sithis (boundless energy; pure chaos). The Aedra (the divines) were created from the parts of Anu and Sithis that combined, and the Daedra were created from the remnants of Sithis. (The remnants of Anu continued to be unmovement).

Jyggalag only exists as he does because the other Daedric Princes forced said "curse" on Sheogorath. I believe it is unlikely for the other daedric princes to work against their whims towards order for any reason. That being said, I think the scope of the story will be diminished if you're purpose is to be a follower of a daedric prince. In Morrowind, you dealt with the power of Lorkhan (a powerful Aedra) and in Oblivion you fought against Mehrunes with the aid of Talos and Akatosh.

There are many Aedra (such as Magnus) that fled the creation of Nirn because they would lose autonomy, power, and their ability to become one with Anu. Perhaps instead of Jyggalag an Aedric being with a will to change Nirn to become incredibly ordered would be a better choice? (Come to think of it, this idea doesn't seem too different than fighting against immortal Alduin who strives to destroy all life...)

Sorry for making this rather large suggestion so far into the process of you guys developing this idea, but I tried looking at stuff from the beginning and this stuck out to me. dude, the number of holes i picked in JUST the first paragraph bugs me, greatly. like, seriosly, read up on the lore. like, Magnus bing an Aedra????

no, he is Et-Eda, he is above the Aedra, and cannot influince nirn at all. the only people who can influence Nirn are the Deadra.

also, Uncle Sheo into Jygalagg???

no, Jygalagg was the one who was cursd, not Uncle Sheo. also, Lorkahn is the father of the Deadra, not Sithis, and Lorkhan is the son of sithis.

And Anu and sithis combined???

No, Anu did what he did, and created the Et-Ada, Sithis didnt like them, and created Lorkhan, to trick the Et ada into basically killing themselves, but it didnt work, so Lorkhan also created the Daedra, to counter the Aedra, as they are now known. and really, i could rip you a few more new ones, but its late, and i need sleep.

and i cant be bothered to actually type all of it up.
