  Just was thinking and it occured to me that there's one thing that Kynareth seems to share with not Akatosh but actually Auri-El. When the Greybeards talk o you about the Way of the Voice, they say it's about peace, enlightenment, etc. And it somehow reminds me about Gelebor and what he says to you about the Chantry... peace, enlightenment, etc...

  Interesting Thorien. You think there is a deeper meaning beyond the similar words? If so, is there anything else which may support your theory?

  Go nuts on it. Think the natural world, or water, or memory even. Or the prophecy of the Tyranny of the Sun, how Auriel has this solar connection, or how Tava's domain is the entire sky except the stars which are Ruptga's domain. Or how at least one source describes the sun as Tava's gleaming eye...

  I don't know if there's deeper meaning, maybe it's just my poor English makes me interpret it o, but these are two cases I've seen of people talking about, basically, a path to enlightenment. These are to different paths of course and mabe the meaning of enlightenment differs for them too, but still.

  My knowledge of Redguard lore is scarse, do they have a similar thing too? I didn't know.
