Lorkhan is not Sithis! Lorkhan, also known as Shor is the brother of Auriel or Akatosh. Both of them were children in the matter of speaking of Anu and Padomay. When Anu and Padomay had spiled each other blood, when it mixed, it created Aedra, but when it was only Padomay's blood, it created Daedra.

Anu sacraficed himself to create Autherius, where all Aedra would live, while Padomay created the Void, for the realms of Oblivion, where his Daedra would live. Anu doesn't exist anymore, Anu is Autherius right now. It is questionable if Padomay still exist in the Void as Sithis, I mean he did make five children with Night Mother somehow, he wouldn't be able to if he gave up his existance like his brother.

I believe, those who believe in All Maker, believe that Anu is the All Maker, but the realm of existance that mortals live in, wasn't even created by the interplay of Anu and Padomay. It was created later, by Aedra, after Shor/Lorkhan convinced everyone to participate in creation of Mondus, the Mortal plane. Magnus of mer was an essential part of the creation, his power basically responsible for it taking place. However, at some point Magnus decided that he didn't like what he created, so he just left back to Autherius, making a hole in the sky that mortals call sun. Other Aedra followed him later, making smaller holes that mortals call stars. They say that at one point Auriel came back to Nirn, with few other Aedra and at Adementine Tower, they held the first council. They tried to decide, what should they do with Lorkhan, who they held responsible for making them create such a mess, we call Mondus today. Seemingly, after what they did to Lorkhan/Shor, their decision wasn't nice. After they killed the god of men, the one who came up with creating Mondus and all of the mortals, they simply left to Autherius to never come back. Well Akatosh did come back to Mondus at the ednd of 3rd era as a firy dragon, but that could have been just his Avatar. Some of them, like Trinimac could never go back to Autherius, since he was turned into a Daedric Lord Malacath by Boethia. Although some Orsimer belive that Trinimac still lives and that they should worship Trinimac, instead of Malacath.

I hope that this is clear enough and I understand the matter correctly, sorry if someone finds it too long to even bother to read, but please try to read this and don't skip it.
