That's what I thought he was saying, but the Arcturian Heresy was definitely not written by an Altmer, it was written by Wulfharth. i would also guess if it's not an Altmer.

yet we still don't exactly know who the Underking is.....

It can be either Wulfhart or Zurin Arctus or whatever.

Well IMO the person who wrote the book was Tiber Septims Imperial Battlemage, by seeing the name ARCTUrian Heresy.

but as i've said its just IMO.

"by The Underking, Ysmir Kingmaker"

-The Arcturian Heresy

PS: The Underking is most likely both Arctus and Wulfharth.

PSS: The reason why it is called the Arcturian Heresy is because Wulfharth is saying that it is "heresy" to claim that Arctus is the Underking.

Tiber Septim was problably desperate because he lost his thu'um and done some crazy things to do what he was destined to do which is to Unite Tamriel. About why did the Arcturian Heresy only tells the bad things about him ? i guess it's obvious that the writer want to Harass Tiber Septim, well i'm pretty sure it's because the person who wrote the book put a grudge against him (problably the Underking) and so he spoils all of his ignominies so that the world will view him as a monster.

While doing so, the writer makes other people forgot of his good deeds, like.... well i don't know.... saving the ghost of old Hroldans live for example, or ending the Interregnum, Unite Tamriel, or perhaps other good deeds which we still haven't know yet....... Tiber Septim was problably desperate because he lost his thu'um and done some crazy things to do what he was destined to do which is to Unite Tamriel.

The Arcturian Heresy implies that this was a lie.

"This period of levelheaded statesmanship and diplomacy, this sudden silence, heretofore unknown in the roaring tales of Talosian conquest, are explained away later. (The assassination story is embroidered—now it is popularly Talos' own throat that was cut.)"
