User blog comment:Madman97/The Peryite Theory/@comment-8209010-20140804092420

May I make a theory within a theory? Hope so. WHAT IF....Peryite caused the disappearance of the Dwemer(Maybe with the help of Malacath, but we'll get to that later)? We know that after attempting to use the Heart of Lorkhan to make all Dwemer into gods, they disappeared. No one knows why, no one knows how. Spellbreaker. Spellbreaker, as we all know is the artifact of none other than Peryite. The original owner of the shield was a Dwemer leader by the name of Rourken. He left Morrowind and the rest of his kind with his clan for Hammerfell when the other Dwemer allied with the Chimer. When Peryite made them disappear, why couldn't the Daedric Prince claim the shield? Peryite could've seen disorder being made by the ambitious Dwemer and decided to cleanse them from Mundus itself.

Going back to Malacath, Peryite also could've conspired with the Prince of Curses to accomplish the feat. What better a curse or punishment than to send an entire race to the Pits or the Ashpit? Their respective Daedric realms?

I think I've cracked the code guys...
