Otherwise Alessia, Reman, and Septim won't even die in the first place, they're Dragonborns. Their mortal body may die, but their souls don't, just like dragons. Any mortal can "kill" a dragon, although this is extremely difficult, but the dragon's soul will just reincarnate in another body. Only dragonborn can permanently kill dragons by devouring their souls.

''PS: I think the plural of "dragonborn" is actually "dragonborn", not "dragonborns", e.g. "Talos and Alessia were both dragonborn." I'm not an expert in english grammar since it's not my native language, but this may be because "dragonborn" is an adjective rather than a class(?)''
