    Maybe Nords just don't die? Maybe the dragons have nothing to do with them walking around. Even Serana said she would fool them as a little girl, and that was at least 2nd era. Dragons came back in the 4th, meaning they have been walking around since then despite dragons. 

    Edit: Nords who die in their sleep are still trying to get to Sovngarde. Or maybe some who died in battle were barred from Sovngarde, and are trying to get in. I know I wouldn't rest if that was me.

    Yngol Barrow? Dustman's Cairn? Volunruud?

    Barrows without necromancers, dragon priests, or overt dragon cult presences.

    I think Paarthurnax and Jurgen ruined the Thu'um. SOILED IT!

    Yngol Barrow - doesn't have walking draugr, only Yngol's ghost

    Dustman's Cairn - word wall

    Volunruud - word wall

    Yngol Barrow - and those weird little, annoying glowing orbs.

    There is no connection between a wall and freaking draugr. It's a stone wall with writing on it. There are no dragon priests, no necromancers, no overt magical devices or spells.

    Which are, I think, the sea ghosts mentioned in the tale. Completely unrelated to the Dragon Cult.

    Uhm, you did notice how those walls chant and emit energy? Seems quite magical to me.

    I haven't noticed your explanation for the draugr

    To the Dragonborn. They're just walls with stories written on them.

    Nords too manly to die is my explanation. Not manly enough to go to Sovngarde, too manly to die.
