Trinimac and Malacath

lukastef

So Im playing wrothgar dlc and orcs there fight over who to worship.Now I know the story how Boetiah devoured Trinimac and basically craped out Malacath. This always confused me because I know that Trinimac killed Lorkhan so he has to be extremly powerful. Then how did Boethiah manage to kill him. That all happened because we have writings of elves but if we saw writings of people who worship Trinimac they are bound to disagree, otherwise they wouldnt worship him. Does trinimac still exists or is he gone and how did boethiah manage to kill him?
If I had to rank all the et ada I would say
Auri el> Jygulag>Trinimac >Lorkhan so its confusing to me how boethiah killed trinimac

The book that talks about it, “The Changed Ones”, is a metaphor of how Boethiah defeated and consumed Trinimac, which is confirmed in the Lord Of Souls by Malacath, I wouldn’t do it justice trying to explain it though so hopefully someone else can.

I cant remember the exact source but there is one ingame text that refers to Boethiah winning through trickery of some kind. Also that Malacath himself has stated the excreted part is taken too literally.

The question of "does trinimac still exist" i feel boils down to more of a question on whether Malacath is/was Trinimac in the first place. Was he really changed into a daedra? Can he be changed back? Or perhaps is Malacath not Trinimac changed in the first place? As far as sources go then Malacath is Trinimac and the current worshipers of Trinimac are praying to a daedra unknowingly or to no one at all

As far as "how"... The Daedric Princes are simply stronger then the Divines. I mean, the whole reason that they are "Divines" in the first place is that most all of their power was consumed in the creation and maintaining of Mundus. Where as the Daedric Princes kept their power for themselves.
