I don't know whether or not this has already been discussed, but I was wondering if what we see as Talos is actually Lorkhan reborn? It was Tiber Septim who ascended via apotheosis and became Talos, and it is believed that the "many-headed Talos" was an oversoul of Tiber, Wulfharth, and Hjalti Early-Beard. All of those are shezarrines, believed to be mortal incarnations of Lorkhan who was cursed to walk Nirn. However, if a shezarrine achieved CHIM and ascended beyond Nirn, in which one "can break free of all known laws and corruptions of the gods. It allows for the user to return to a state before the mingling of Anu and Padomay and manipulate the Aurbis how they please." This could imply that the spirit(s) of Lorkhan after achieveing CHIM are no longer tied to Nirn like he was at first, thus allowing him to again be divine, as CHIM breaks you free of your attachment to Nirn. Lorkhan could not be a divine because he was tied to Nirn, but if his soul achieved CHIM (which it can be argued is used to make a divine mortal, like how Lorkhan fell to Nirn) then he would no longer be tied to Nirn and could again travel the Aubris as a Divine. Just a thought.
