Nerevar was troubled by this and approached Dumac with these accusations and asked if they were true. Dagoth explained that the Dwemer had used this profane power to make themselves immortal and thus beyond the measure of the gods, and that the High Priest, and Chief Tonal Architect of the Dwemer Kagrenac the Blighter even had gone as far as to devise tools to build a New God that served as a mockery of Chimer faith and a fearsome weapon that the Dwemer would use to claim Resdayn for their own. These accounts involve Lord Dagoth approaching Nerevar and his advisors, Almalexia, Sotha Sil, and Vivec with knowledge that House Dagoth had discovered the source of the long unknown secret power source the Dwemer worshipped, that of the legendary Heart of Lorkhan. Certain stories, namely that of both the Ashlanders and Vivec himself tell a similar tale that differ in key aspects. Voryn Dagoth played a heavy role in the divide of and eventual war among the First Council, although accounts greatly differ on what side he was on. The War of the First Council Loyal Dagoth Ur He also served Nerevar loyally as his general. Voryn was a trusted friend of both rulers, particularly Nerevar who he was of the same generation as, and shared a brotherly bond with. The rulers of the First Council were Nerevar the Hortator of the Chimer, and Dumac Dwarf-Orc the King of the Dwemer. He resided in Kogoruhn (Unbroken Home in Dark Elvish) the clanstead of the House. Voryn Dagoth was the Chimer Lord High Councilor of House Dagoth one of the seven Great Houses of Resdayn which ruled the land alongside their allies the Dwemer. His reign of terror would end in the late Third Era when the Nerevarine ventured into Red Mountain and defeated him.

He wreaked havoc on Morrowind for centuries by robbing the Tribunal of their source of divine power and creating legions of Corprus monsters by unleashing the Blight. He would awaken in the late Second Era, creating plans to build a second Numidium named Akulakhan to conquer Tamriel. Unbeknownst to the Tribunal, Dagoth and the Sixth House were not completely wiped out, and he and his kin slept beneath Red Mountain for millennia. Accounts vary significantly on what actions he took before, during, and after the battle, but regardless, it resulted in Dagoth and the Sixth House being defeated and condemned as traitors, their names being largely erased from Dunmeri history by the Tribunal Temple. In the First Era, he inadvertently caused the Battle of Red Mountain by informing the Hortator Indoril Nerevar that House Dagoth had discovered the Dwemer's worship of a secret source of power, the Heart of Lorkhan, which the Chimer deemed profane and heretical. In Tribunal mythology, he is demonized as the Devil and the Enemy, False Dreamer, Devil Dagoth Ur, and Devil of Dagoth. Dagoth Ur, also known as Voryn Dagoth, the Sharmat, as well as Awakened Lord of the Sixth House, Lord Dagoth and Father of the Mountain to his followers, was the immortal Lord High Councilor of House Dagoth.
