The answer to the sixth question: Ehlonfey are the ancestors of both men and elves, and possibly every other race and creature on Nirn with the exception of Hist. In the begining Ehlonefey were part of the original spirits but when Mundus became created they ended up trapped there. At some point the Ehlonfey ended up in the ideological civil war and split in to Old Ehlonfey and Wandering Ehlonfey. With time they became the ancestors of all the races of Nirn. The Old Ehlonfey became the ancestors of Elves ( including Khajiit and Orcs) while Wandering Ehlonfey became the ancestors of Nords, Redguards, Nedes etc.
