Now i'm more confused  Well they came from Anu, just as Padomay did. Where/when the creation of the et'Ada happened isn't well understood but as Sithis created Lorkhan to gut punch them all then I'm going to assume they were a thing before he came to town. Everything is a subgradient of the Dream.

If you do it by how they were created, that makes less sense Right, but it the strictest sence of the word Lorkhan doesn't fit because he's more the ancestor/creator of Man, not mer. The Aedra/Eight aligned et'Ada contributed becoming earth bones, lesser spirits (animals, trees, white souled creatures), and Ehlnofey. Lorkhan didn't do any of that. He was the man with the plan and didn't quite make it that far. He was "killed." Sure, he made it far enough to lose enough immortality to be ripped to shreds, but he still isn't dead. Not really. actually men see him as that. since the fact men and mer can easily interbreed  they're related somewhere down the line (the Ehlnofey mate) the Wanderers who were outside old Ehlnofex became the mortal races of men. those stayed in became Mer. http://elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Ehlnofey
