I'm suggesting that there was nothing wrong with Vyrthur's interpretation of Auri'El, except that I don't think Auri-El abbandoned so him so much as he's schizophrenic and kind of dead and dreaming like your typical Great Old One, only less mindbreaking when looked on and somewhat closer to a understandable morality. Endless reasons that don't contradict canon could be provided to explain what happened to Vythur. I for one like to subscribe to the ones where Molag Bal had a hand in distracting Auri-El via there vague overlap in spheres and kalpic standings depending on your interpretation of the fights of the aldudaga amongst other alternate kalpic lore.

As for the dragonborn I see nothing to directly tie Auri-El to that. aye they are both related to the Time God, but one is a Mirror-Brother the other is debatably an avatar/child of...

Akatosh is not Auri-El is not Alkosh, all are AKA/the time god oversoul. ALthough Akatosh has a fair bit of Space god tied in, not to mention general thing with enatiomorphs resulting in the King and Rebel becoming indistuigishable form a certain angle....
