Both are sent on Mundus to fulfil their destinies. Prophecy. Apparently Alduin is sent in to end the world and bring forth the New Kalpa, yet the Dragonborn is sent in to stop this? Who? What? Why? Well, I actually have a theory on this. In a very convaluted way, it could be Mehunes Dagon (he is the only one noted to have tried to prevent this in the past while he was a leaper demon king). There is however, possible evidence of this found in Oblivion. While doing the main quest, Mankar Camoran is seen wearing the Amulet of Kings both on Nirn and in one of Dagon's realms of Oblivion. Since the Amulet of Kings can only be worn by Dragonborn, it is very possible and likely that Mankar was in fact on of the Dragonborn. Given this evidence, Dagon may somehow have the ability to create/summon new Dragonborn, although I have no idea how he would do this.
