Okay so no one can possess or own an Elder Scroll. Yet there is a scroll in the Tower Mzark that from Septimus's implications was always there. Admittedly that was related to the Dragonborn prophecy, which I suppose means that it was neccessary for that scroll to be there at that time. So if the Dragonborn can twist fate in this way, surely they can possess one for at least as long as it is needed to fulfill a certain piece destiny. The Hero's therefore must have some manipulation over the Scrolls, in the same way that the Scrolls have a hold over the hero's.
