I do not really see why Anu would be influenced by Satan, either. The name being the only connection appears a little weak. Anu is the force of stasis, and the Amaranth, while Lucifer is much more chaotic and fell from grace (Anu has not). I suppose Padomay would be a more apt comparison, but even then, change is not exactly evil in itself. The Dark Brotherhood supposedly worship Sithis, the soul of Padomay, not Anu, as well, thought it is more of a dressed up Mephala than anything. Sithis is not exactly the death-obsessed being the Dark Brotherhood portray him to be. '''Exactly. '''

It seems that people believe too much what the DB says. Sithis most likely doesn't care about Nirn at all.

Well, he probably doesn't care about anything, since he's sentient chaos's soul/subgradient.
