The mingled blood of both became the Aedra (hence their capacity for good and evil, and their greater affinity for earthly affairs than the Daedra, who have no connection to Creation)."
 * -The Annotated Anuad

This quote is probably the one line in the Anuad that you should never take seriously.

"Sons and daughters of" should be read as associates of/associated with, especially insofar as this association was a conscious choice.

''Today the common parlance is that only the eight that followed Lorkhan and created the Mundus are truly "Aedra," but this is folly. Some were not even the strongest of the Aetherius-aligned etada at the time, but were made as such by their creation of the dawn.''

Remember, even the word "Daedra" started as a youthful rebellion.
 * -More about Aedra - Daedra

The term Aedra and Daedra merely mean that the Ada involved either did or did not take part in creation.

"Thus was born Sithis, who was the sum of all the limitations Anuiel would utilize to ponder himself. Anuiel, who was the soul of all things, therefore became many things, and this interplay was and is the Aurbis"

Sithis refuses to exist in Mundus (assuming he has a consciousness at all like the gods and Daedra) and prefers to live in a realm completely out of Anu's control or influence, the void. Lorkhan isn't sithis but sithis's puppet who was supposed to destroy the Aurbis for him. But instead he created Mundus, which was not what Sithis wanted but he couldn't do a thing about it because one was bound to the void. Shor is the Nordic version of Lorkhan. Talos is not Lorkhan but used some complicated mantling magics to replace Lorkhan (or what was left of him) and took his power so he could become a god. Akatosh is not the embodiment of Anu within the dream, Anui-El is. As I said before, Sithis cannot be the Void because he is literally a part of the Aurbis. Talos is, for all intents and purposes, Lorkhan reborn (don't forget he is the amalgamation of multiple avatars of Lorkhan). The creation of Talos was completely intended by Lorkhan, it is his completed project of showing the Adas how to achieve CHIM, as only mortals can reach that state.

Sithis is not a personifiable entity, and the Night Mother is merely a conduit in which Mephala secretly trolls the guild.
