Oh and the fact that Lorkhan/Shor was the son of Sithis/Padomay, doesn't necessary makes him a Daedra by the way. Technically all of the Aedra were children of Sithis as well as All Maker, Daedra on the other hand are children of Sithis alone. That is incorrect. The only spirits that are children of a specific higher being are Akatosh and Lorkhan, all other spirits forms from the interplay of Anuiel and Sithis, and are the children of both.

The deadra are not Sithis's children, they are merely the spirits who sided with Sithis. Just as the Aedra are not Anu's children, they are merely the spirits who side with Anu.

Seemingly how usually, Lorkhan is descrbed as brother of Auriel, we can assume that he was not a Daedra made only by Sithis. I think you meant Lorkhan is the brother of Akatosh.

Also, Akatosh IS Lorkhan, Anuiel is Sithis, and Anu is Padhome. So, Lorkhan was made by Sithis and Anuiel, but since they are the same thing, he only has one parent, Sithis who is Anuiel.

I am still trying to located the Lorkhan article in Imperial Library, but here is Talos article that I found there that definetly puts Talos as one of the divines. You can be a god, and a divine, without being an Aedra. that Imperial Library article really doesn't prove anything.
