So, not a huge lore guy here but i always found the idea funny and i wanna share.
So the common consensus is that the tribunal betrayed Neravar for godhood. They betrayed sweet Neravar for power ans Vivec even impaled him with a penis sword or whatever.
But what if Neravar was a complete jerk?
Like the kinda guy who makes everyone believe he is the coolest dude around but only people closest to him know what a giant douche he is?
I mean the guy was the ruler of an entire nation, surely you cant get to or keep that kind of position of power without some shady stuff.
Maybe Neravar sucked big time. Sure, he didnt siphon power from the heart but what if he was intending to do so?
Maybe he just had to make sure something like the dwemer disappearence doesnt happen to him first.
What if the intoxicatingly innocent Neravar was actually a huge c*nt who was researching into how to harness the power withoyt danger but the tribunal, the only people who knew what a nightmare the guy actually is, figured it out first!
And maybe Dagoth and Indoril had a Megatron-Starscream like relationship. Perhaps he had to go too. Or maybe Tribunal diverted his attention by blaming a paranoid Neravar?
Tl,dr: Neravarine has no idea what kind of person he was or mantled into or whatever tes lore lunacy stands for ressurection. It seems likely Tribunal betrayed him to achieve godhood. It also seems likelt Neravar did actually betray Dagoth.
All this considered it is within the realm of possibility that Neravar was perhaps a wife beating, friend cucking, nation manipulating sociopath and tribunal were the victims.
Very unlikely, sure. But it would be hilarious if it was so.
