Theory on the Dwemer Dissappearance

So I have a theory on why the dwemer vanished. It's pretty much that after Azura was tricked, the curse was their disappearance. Or, probably more likely, it caused them to struggle with their wars with the Chimer. Then, their misuse of the Heart of Lorkhan could have given the final push to their extinction.

I thought they have vanished just how Arniel Gane did when HE wanted to figure out the disappearance of the Dwemer. That, or they end in the same predicament that Alduin was in. They chanted a spell and they all were sucked in some time warp. But I think we'll never know....

I have two ideas. One: they used the Heart of Lorkhan to achieve godhood, but when Nerevar broke their link to the heart they vanished/banished from the mortal plain. Two: they did like Arniel and put their own souls into soulgems. Why would they do this? To power their many machines. I read somewhere that the last dwarf in the Morrowind game was programed in as a creature, making his soul white and not black, so it could be placed into a white soulgem.

I find it most likely that they achieved what they were hoping to achieve and ascended beyond the mortal realm. However I do not know what happened after that. Did they become aspects of some other divine? Are they in another plane of Oblivion?

They may have ended up in Oblivion, seeing as how almost all of the Dremora in Morrowind have dwemer weapons.

But the last Dwemer (I can't remember his name) was in an outer realm at the time of the disappearance. You think that after all of those countless years searching Tamriel for his kin, he would start looking in other realms.
