Everyone is entitled to have their own opinion. Nowhere in the game do they call the Dragonborn Shezarrine. The ghost can be taken in a variety of ways and what he says is cryptic at best. Just because the greybeards name the Dragonborn Ysmir means nothing, lots of children are names Jesus, does that mean they are indeed the second coming and the end is nigh? Of course not. Sometimes, there are coincidences and nothing more. As for the name Ysmir, maybe you are Talos reborn, or maybe its a title of respect, like being knighted in todays world. If you get knighted by the queen of england do you go riding about on horseback wearing armor and swinging a sword? Of course not. Because its a title.

Now I'll admit first thing, this is me taking liberties of my own. If one chooses to be the skeptic one has that option as Bethesda provided you that ability. Heck maybe the Thalimor are right, maybe Talos isn't even a god at all. Or maybe he isn't Tiber maybe its the underking, No matter what its all maybes because none of us know for certain. Speculate all you want but it wouldn't hold up in court. Its like me trying to tell you what George Lucas was attempting with Jar Jar Binks, I don't know I'm not him. Or like the Tea party trying to tell me what the founding fathers intended, oh you were there? You spoke to them and they told you personally what they wanted? You are speculating, which is fine but not if your trying to pass it off as fact. Of course they wouldn't call the Dragonborn a Shezarrine, the people of Tamriel barely know Shezarrines exist.

All Shezarrines are connected, is it a coincidence that everyone one given the title Ysmir was both a Dragonborn and a Shezarrine, not to mention the fact that Pelinal was known as Ysmir before the Greybeards even existed, meaning it isn't some title they just made up. Also there is the fact that they give you the title in the name of Shor. You got to at least admit that there is alot of evidence that points to the Dovahkiin being a Shezarrine.

Talos does exist, this has been confirmed many times.
