I think there will be far more than 9 games. I see the Elder Scrolls the way I see comic books. Superman has lasted since the 30's. The reason for that is the writers keep having him do new things, and people keep buying the comics. We saw the same thing with James Bond. The same is true for Mario and Zelda.

The Elder Scrolls will operate the same way. Our adventures in Tamriel don't have to end, and they won't until the game stops selling - which could be never. I personally don't see an end in sight; that doesn't take away from the fact that you guys all have some fantastic, interesting ideas on the "endgame".

Eventually the Thalmor will try to carry out their endgame but that's just one more hurdle to jump through. It's never over. If we kill every Daedra and invade Akavir and go to one of the other planets (moons?) orbiting Tamriel, it's still not over.

The Dwemer coming back to take on the Thalmor would be nuts and awesome though. I see the Thalmor destroying Skyrim very soon, while the Dragonborn is in Sovongarde to helping them recover from the damage Alduin went on.
