i don't claim to be an elder scrolls savant, i know very little about the history and lore. but recently i've got to thinking, so i read the wikipedia page for information. so apparently there are an infinite number of shall we say voids between the stars in the elder scrolls universe. it could be feasible that when the dwemer just dissapeared, they could have been cast into the one of the voids after attempting to become gods themselves. there are a few ways they could come back, they were technologically advanced, it was said on ESO that time advancing differently in the oblivion plains. same could be said about the voids in between mundus and aetherius. so the dwemer could be building technologies to return, they also know magic and to be fair, sheogorath managed to move an entire island from nirn to oblivion. it is then relatively easy to assume the dwemer could do the same, nothing much is known about the world outside of tamriel.

someone could stumble across a way of returning them to tamriel, i mean lets be honest, half the mages doing research have unwittingly caused problems i mean whats his face valen aquilarios or whatever his name is, tried to cheat by trying to take the power of the dragonborn to proclaim himself emperor, or was tricked into thinking he could, and looked what happened there. mages have released daedra, the mythic dawn opened portals to oblivion in elder scrolls IV: oblivion. it's not inconcievable that something like that cold result in the dwemer returning, and trying to continue the work they were originally banished for.

and lets not forget now, maybe not all the dwemer wanted to become gods, but the few that did just screwed everything up for the entire dwemer race. i don't know there is definitely a huge storyline there, and they keep on bringing the dwemer up in the games, sounds a bit like foreshadowing to me. and i think bethesda know that and are waiting for just the right time to introduce or re-introduce them as it were.
