feelings about recent events lead to thoughts of mid-ascent thaliendir .

as say before , thaliendir try to hold onto mortality for as long as possible . full mantle was always inevitable - very core of oblivion understand thaliendir to be sheogorath , as do inhabitants .
out in cyrodiil , thaliendir can not really escape , no , but make attempts to hide from this truth . of course , as time go on , thaliendir settle more into role , more into shivering isles - and things start to get ... weird .

in start of process , thaliendir is thaliendir , no question about that . slightly different from before , of course , but this man was unfortunate enough to witness brutal murder of friend . understandable anyone would come back from that different .
once world was in this post-dagon relative peace and safety ... thaliendir explore , take up more jobs and quests . end up as arch-mage , too ... another dead friend .
still so much to do and to want in cyrodiil , though ... continue to hold on , almost try to bury sheogorathean self , despite protests from sheo . not that daedric powers obey , necessarily - sometimes would fall asleep in bravil and awaken in palace of new sheoth , for example , or let out sudden sparks .

even though everyone recognise and understand as sheogorath , thaliendir at times feel more like ... mortal fraud . but as this new sheogorath suffer , so did shivering isles - after 15 years' time , would again vacation away from cyrodiil for quite some time to reconnect with isles and sheogorathean truth , and to heal .
would still spend plenty time in cyrodiil at this point , but start to embrace princehood and what this really entail , more indulgent of self . would sometimes use powers even if not best idea , occasionally scope things out and look for people to ... help .
by around 4e 50 , scales would balance - and then start to tip in direction of sheogorath , rather than thaliendir .

4th era sheogorath would never exactly forget life as thaliendir , but some parts would start to feel distant by now . often would feel wrong in either realm , as well - either feel too daedric for cyrodiil , or too mortal for isles . peace was hard to find during this time .
would also be at this time when sheogorath sometimes fail to answer to mortal name in cyrodiil , and spiral into breakdowns over which identity was real anymore .
this period would start to settle through avoidance of cyrodiil , and indulgence of life as sheogorath - even on days where this feel wrong , this was at least more right than force mortality ...

by late 1st century , would only occasionally leave isles , and mostly for sake of friends like henantier - as elves , would both have to cope with deaths of shorter lifespan friends , and in some regards lose touch with younger folk . even then , thaliendir almost struggle to grasp - with further embrace of princehood , would more rapidly plunge into madness , and even forget mortal perspectives .
as result of this , 4e 101 would be last mortal year .
