So what is Anu? Does it have a will, and what does the fact that it has reached the Amaranth (whatever that is) mean? Does Anu affect anything in any way or was it just a way to create the world together with Padomay? And doesn't this create some sort of unbalance since Padomay hasn't reached the Amaranth? And is the Amaranth the same as CHIM, or one more being that has reached it? Thanks for answering! Amaranth doesn't effect anything in the TES universe that I know of. It means that Anu has created A-New universe that it dreams.

As for the unbalancing, I've often thought the same thing. Perhaps it means Anu won the Enantiomorph (or maybe lost), the concept will probably be cleared up with later lore. Ikabite showed me this a while ago, DIES IRAE, it's apparently going to be the next installment of the C0DAverse, this could possibly explain Padomay's place in the universe.

Amaranth is two steps over CHIM. After CHIM, one must complete the Scarab that transforms into New Man, and after that one could potentially achieve Amaranth.

Because of this part, the Zero-Summing thing is starting to make sense.

Soo, basically, It's like reading a Elder Scroll and losing your sight, only way worse? Possibly, I wouldn't call that an absolute truth. However, the only person known to have reached Zero-Sum just so happened to be a Moth Priest.

Apparently, according to Dovahsebrom, Anu and Padomay are the Aurbis. the Godhead is the avatar of Beth- I mean Anu! Anyway, because of the Godhead being a avatar of Anu, there is proof that Anu might have a will, but there is solid proof that Anu does affect the mortal plane - just look at Nirn!

As for Padomay having a Avatar - well, if one existed, Nirn's screwed.

(Just read this post again, and I have no idea what I just said.) Anu and Padomay aren't the Aurbis, they are outside it. Their souls, Anuiel and Sithis, are what actually makes the Aurbis. The Godhead isn't an avatar of Anu, the Godhead is the its own entity.

Talking about nothing, the "towers" that's protecting Nirn from Oblivion or whatever, like Red mountain and High Hrothgar, I read somewhere that there was (I think) two of these "towers" that can move. One being Numidium, the giant robot thing that the Dwemer built and the other being some kind of walking tree-town. First off, doesn't it affect the barrier that they move around? Second, when a tower gets destoyed or corrupted or whatever, what happens then? Because it's already happened two times right? One with the white gold tower and the second with the Numidium. Third, if the mortal races can create towers, even though it's from a gods heart, shouldn't they just spam-create the godly soul gem thing they used for Numidium instead of the Lorkhan heart?

Was it Sithis and Aka (or Akatosh as I know him, but Pelinal seems pretty sure about the whole Aka was the first thing so yea :D) that created the towers or who was it and why? And is the tower that Lorkhan used something different from the other ones? The barriers (barrier may not be the best way to explain it) that the Towers fortify is known as the Wheel of Convention, I wouldn't imagine a moving tower would really effect the barrier but who knows, could be possible, though it probably doesn't make the barrier less powerful or anything. When a Tower is deactivated (which has happened with Snow-Throat, Orichalc, Walk-Brass, Red Moutain, White-Gold, Crystal-Like-Law, and some believe both the Khajiit and Green-Sap) the Wheel of Convention is weakened. If by the godly soul gem you mean the Mantella, then that isn't something that can be easily reproduced (it was made from the Heart of a/many Shezarrine(s) after all).

Sithis and Aka (who are on different subgradient levels) did not create the Towers. The first tower was Ada-Mantia, I'm not exactly sure who made it, could have been Magnus or possibly Auriel, maybe all the Aedra helped. The Second, Red Mountain, was made when Lorkhan's Heart was thrown to Nirn. The rest were apparently made by elves (though I'd rather doubt the Elves actually built the Throat of the World). The reason the Towers were created was to either support or refute creation, depending on the race of Elves that made them.
