Look, I'm usually as Dunmer supremacist as one can get, but you have to realize that in the 3rd Era, Dagoth Ur was just completely, plain nuts. Gone bonkers from too much divine power. He might have had the best intentions, but he still had to be stopped. You do not "save" Morrowind by turning it into a ravaged, blight infested ash desert! A free Morrowind would be best, but better an imperial Morrowind than a blighted one - in fact, that reasoning is exactly why the Tribunal agreed to the truce with the Empire! As I see it, you can either be pro-Dunmer, or pro-... twisted, mindless ash things. But not both. Those things were not Dunmer anymore.

Yes, Voryn Dagoth was loyal to Nerevar, and yes, the Tribunal slew Nerevar. So what? Are we to base our decisions on some drama that took part between just five people centuries if not millenia ago? What about the millions of people in Morrowind right now? (well, right now at the time of the Morrowind game).

Bottom line: By the Third Era, Dagoth Ur was a villain, if maybe one with good intentions, and a threat to Morrowind, not a potential saviour.
