When you consider a place like Tamriel, sometimes it's best to take titles literally. Alduin is the World-Eater. It's not going to be the end of all life as we know it, leaving a barren wasteland of Earthbone dirt... it's going to be the whole of Nirn inside his mighty gullet. None shall survive has been a calling card for awhile, but that was only a hint to the more extensive Nothing will survive. Unless, of course, there's a loophole. Say, something like the someone called the Dovakhiin happening to show up...born under uncertain stars to uncertain parents. (An aside for extra credit: what in the Aurbis makes the Prisoner such a powerful mythic figure?) The Eight Limbs (and their Missing Ninth) have always, always made sure there was a loophole. Sometimes to their detriment, sure, but more often a hedged bet to ensure the survival of the current kalpa.
