This means he might be related to atmorans but he's family didnt become the traditional nord in the sense nor did they become bretons. If he eventually is proven to be part Mer, then will the Thalmor shut up about him becoming a god? First off, Hjalti is Breton. He is called Manmer by Azura. However, his Manness isn't why the Thslmor hate him. It's because he is Lorkhan.

So, Talos Stormcrown is Hjalti and Wulfharth. According to the Wiki page for Talos under the trivia section it says "  much of the conflict between native  Nords  (particularly the  Stormcloaks ) and the Aldmeri Dominion comes from the Dominion's claim that a man could not become a Divine, and thus Talos is not a god and should not be worshipped." This is offensive to the elves because they believe they are descended from the gods. If any mortal is going to become a god, they believe it should be an elf.
