Legate Alexandros wrote: There was an interplay between them, instigated by the chaotic Padomay. The way I understood it, it was a fight, that spilled their blood. As the blood of Anu and Padomay mixed, Aedra apeard. Out of the blood of Padomay came out only Daedra. That is why Aedra are capable of peace and chaos, while most Daedra are capable only of chaos.

Out of the rest of Anu, came out Autherius and a place for Aedra to live. Padomay then proceeded in creating the Void and that is where Oblivion realms of Daedra reside. It is not clear if Padomay used himself up like Anu to create Void, but he must still exist somehow if Night Mother managed to have five children from him. Actually, the unvierse was orginally only void, a blank nothingness.

Then Anu and Padomay met, creatign the grey maybe which consisted of Atheruis and Oblivion.

Anu and Padomay then created thier souls, Anuiel and Sithis, who then created their souls, Akatosh and Lorkhan. The other spirirts were born out of the interplay between Anu and Padomy.

What defined an Daedra from a Daedra is if they chose to take place in creation or not, not if they were born of Anuiel or Sithis. Many daedra, such as Meridia and Jyggalyg, are highly anuic, yet are still daedra.
