"Yes. Shor- who also has aspects called Sep, Sheor, Lorkhan, and Lorkhaj- is said in may stories to have been killed at the dawn of the world, when the other great spirits saw his proposal of the world's creation as a form of treachery. The different races of Tamriel have very divided views when in comes to Shor- some view him as a noble trickster, who pried the gods away from a distant and indolent state to create something greater than themselves. Others see the world as a mistake, a fall from grace, with Shor as its cause."

"The Dunmer see all spirits as our ancestors, though we favor the Daedra over the Aedra, for they are more active in our lives. Likewise, when we depart the world, we remain watchful over the living, joining our ancestors as lesser spirits that will one day grow to approach their knowledge and power. Therefore, Shor- though I rarely called him by that name, before meeting him face to face- is an ancestor like any other spirit, whose word is to be considered and heeded."

"As I have said before, I cannot see. I could not tell you what shape he took by my own senses, though I know he was small, and my companions said he was in the shape of a black fox. What stood out more to me was the sound of drums in his voice, deep and steady, like the heartbeat of the world. I sang with him, when we faced his ancient foe together, and it's the doom-drum of his voice that gave me a shred of hope to contest the poison song."

Those... sure are words.
