The didn't fuse together. They're still separate beings. Auri-El (probably) still exists because a whole race worships him. Thanks to mythopoeism that kind of just makes him exist. Lorkhan is dead. That's important with the whole thing. Pieces of him are everywhere but the whole of Lorkhan doesn't exist... until Talos.

The Aka shards are: Akatosh, Alduin, Auri-El, Bormahu, Alkosh, Tosh-Raka, dovah, jill, and dragonborn.
