I also have issues with people stating the HoK, or CoC became Sheogorath as fact. It's possible, in fact to be honest, preferable to do the Shivering Isles extension without going any where near Kvatch. In fact I don't think that I ever went near the Shivering Isles when pursuing the main quest, and vice versa. For a start the main quest was bloody awful, I think I've gone through it at most 3 times, whereas I've played the game more times than sanity would justify.

Which means that as far as I'm concerned personally, the HoK never entered the Shivering Isles, it was after all a late sideways expansion, hell I'd given up playing the game before SI came out and only came back to it thanks to the game being rescued by third party mods. IMHO the pseudo Sheogorath should be treated as a separate entity from the HoK, and definitely should be ignored in Lore as such.
