I don't know if this has already been said, and I'm not willing to slog through two hundred-odd comments just to confirm, so please stop me if I'm just echoing anyone else here.

I suspect the Dragon Cult has not been completely wiped out, and that it is regaining a foothold in Solstheim, from which it hopes to cross over into Skyrim in an effort to restore the cult to its former glory.

Much like Dawnguard before it, the player will be presented with a choice to either assist the Dragon Cult - or annihilate it.
