About this image
Little is known of Almalexia before she became Nerevar's wife. Temple myth holds that on Mount Assarnibibi, Molag Bal oversaw the ninety-nine lovers of Boethiah who gave birth to her. She hailed from one of the Great Houses of Morrowind. Vivec's prose suggests she was already a ruler when she met Nerevar, who was working as a guard for a merchant caravan at the time. Though Nerevar was a generation older than her, they eventually got married. The Dwemer king Dumac, who had become Nerevar's close friend, presented them with twin blades of the highest Dwemeri craftsmanship. Almalexia's was known as Hopesfire. Sources conflict on how her husband met his demise. Most attribute it to wounds he received during the Battle of Red Mountain. The Ashlanders, who rejected Tribunal worship, believe that Almalexia and her fellow Tribunes murdered her husband so he would not interfere with their plan to take divine power.
As soon as the Tribunal stole power from the Heart, Azura appeared and cursed them. The Daedric Prince issued the prophecy that the Nerevarine would return to punish them for breaking their oaths. When Sotha Sil waved off her omens, the Dunmer were created, and Azura gave a final prophecy: that the Dunmer would share the Tribunal's fate until the end of time. Though confused at first, the Dunmer (with the exception of Ashlanders) did come to accept the Tribunal as their new gods. Theological concerns gave rise to the idea of the "Anticipations", the "Good Daedra" the Chimer had worshipped before the Tribunal's apotheosis (so while the Tribunal had once been mortal, and non-existent before that, their Anticipations were said to have guided the Chimer in their stead). The Good Daedra are those Princes of Oblivion who apparently acknowledged the Tribunal's authority over the Dunmer (as opposed to the Bad Daedra, spirits who did not accept the Tribunal). The Anticipation of Almalexia was Boethiah, Prince of Plots.

I could redo this comparison picture and make it nicer with the correct titles...maybe one day
As I said below on FastBlackCat's post, I always found that she was dressed so yucky for a goddess. Obviously they made her look like princess leia when she was the Hut's slave.
Putting someone down so you can uplift another is a sign of poor character. Don't be that person. Be the person who uplifts everyone.
ESO doesn't really fit into this comparison. Besides, I only had so much room and i wasn't going to spend more than the 5 minutes I needed to put this together.
For myself, I just can't get over the fact that she is a GOD and she wouldn't be wearing some kind of Princess Leia outfit like found here:
