Forgive me if I'm ignorant, but is Skyblivion its own game with its own folders, files, configurations, etc or is it an addition onto Skyrim?

I'm currently playing Skyrim with a mod pack that changes a lot of stuff and I know you need fresh installs and you can't have multiple mod packs because they will conflict with each other.

Is Skyblivion a mod for Skyrim meaning I'll have to delete my current setup and reinstall it, or is Skyblivion its own thing that can be played simultaneously with a modified Skyrim?

I was replaying Skyrim (again) and encountered Erik in a random world event after doing his quest. He talked about how he'd want to gain more experience because he wants to become a mercenary and visit Hammerfell. If Elder Scrolls 6 does take place in Hammerfell, it would be cool to see an older Erik as an NPC or even a follower again. Especially because the character is named after an Elder Scrolls fan who sadly passed away before Skyrim was released. It would be an awesome memorial to the fan (Erik West) if Erik the Slayer shows up in another Elder Scrolls game.
