That's kind of a misnomer, they mostly believed that they used to exist. Otherwise it wouldn't make much sense to believe in 'The Voice' if you never had a Dragon to speak the tongue. The loading screens are nice for bits of information, but the hard lore is in the game, itself. Gather your information from the people you talk to, many Nords just never believed that the Dov would return.
