Our good friend Parthy can vouch for that...well that unless you killed him because you folowed what that wench and b*** Delphine told you to do. (bad Alexandros, why the heck you wanted to bring back blades!) My first Skyrim character is not a great role model in that, he feels great remorse and even trew away his Dragonbane sword right next to Parthy's skeleton. But anyways, we know that Alduin is not Akatosh, that he's the Eldest son of Akatosh, and the world first dragon. He likes to think that he's Akatosh, trying to convince Atmorans that he is now their chief diety, now that Shor is "dead". He maybe a godlike bing, and Alduin is real, but he ain't Akatosh! The whole purpose of creating Alduin by Akatosh was to create someone who would end an old world, to create a new. However, only when Akatosh decides that is time for that, not when the heck that rebel Alduin feels like it! lol i did read that book it got me a little bit confussed from hes aludin hes aludin hes aludin but is akatosh until it finally gets to the end when he makes up his mind that theyre diffent things you know divine and eldest dragon son i almost lost mind reading that book but still deplhine is being a little bit crazy of choosing sides of knowledge and their side after youve been told that sides stuff and the whole temple stuff you want to loot before hand or its stolen its why i took all the blades sword and bane and whatever was in there that i could carry and found useful and first characters arent really the best its like playing the beta or practice part of the game just need to get the hang of it and know treassure from oridinary junk that are useless Well whoever wrote that book "Alduin is real and he aint no Akatosh" did say that that was the first and probably the only time he wrote a book. But he feels that he really need to correct few things. He was born and raise in Skyrim, his pa was a true Nord, while his ma was priestest of Akatosh in Cyrodil or something like that. He claims that people say often that Alduin is Nordic Akatosh, but from what his ma told him about Akatosh, that cannot be true. He knows that Akatosh supposed to be a benevolent devine that cares about us, while Alduin is exact oposite, raw power and destruction, who wants to subjugate or destroy. Based upon this he feels that it's his duty to tell everyone that Alduin is a real devine being, but he cannot be Akatosh he knows about. So regardless of the bad grammar of that common Nord who wrote it, I think I would belive this book, over "Akatosh-Alduin Dictonomy" or whatever is the name of it, where some scholar suggest that just like Akatosh is the same as Auriel and Alkosh, he is also the same as Alduin. Even though he says that Nordic people believe Alduin to be someone different, he disregards it as a marketplace gossip. This is a bit close minded in my opinion.
