The whole idea behind Bend Will is very morally ambiguous. Dragonrend was a darker shout in terms of lore, but we hardly ever encounter friendly dragons, so its abusing its power really can only benefit the people of skyrim. The plot in Dragonborn seems to point towards our character getting a bit more corrupt. The shouts we get from that section content are so off the scale in power it seems like Bethesda is elevating the Dragonborn half way between mortal and god. From what I gained from the plot, Mirrak, while wanting to conquer the world, also wanted to be free from his ties to Mora. He couldn't because he couldnt escape from Apocrypha. Our Dragonborn proved to be more powerful than Mirrak, and has the added benefit of being able to cross the planes from Mundus to Oblivion with use of the Black Books. Mora also made it evident that we can have all the power we want while we stay loyal to him, but if we cross him and try to defy his will, he will shank us with a tenticle. Considering there isnt a mortal who can stop us, and we cant turn back now without fear of puncture wounds, why not take of the world, eh? Not like we have much else to do.

Corrupt Dragonborn, takes over world, mortals enslaved, Dragonborn somehow becomes immortal, A hero must rise to defeat him. A very mediocre idea for a plot that i just came up with
