Talos currently holds this kalpa together while Akatosh is too busy being schizophrenic to do much at all. CHIM? He is merely a dragonborn. He didn't even save the world. The Last dragonborn did however save it 3 Times, and not even a thank you. (4 If you count The Wolf Queen)

PS. Please do your research. Akatosh is the most powerful Aedra, he created Talos, Everything in Nirn for that matter. Talos only formed a Legion. Pffff....hahahahahahahahaha! Oh this is hilarious! You're completely and utterly ignorant of lore and you've deluded yourself into thinking you know anything! You need to learn actual lore outside of the loading screens and in-game statements from NPCs with a fundimentally flawed understanding of ES metaphysics. The modern Akatosh isn't even a real god, Alessia created him through mixing traits of Shor and Auriel to make an acceptable head of pantheon for the imperial religion. He's nothing more but Auriel being forced into the role of protector.

Lorkhan came up with Nirn in the first place in order to show mortals how to not fail in achieving CHIM which is beyond godhood. CHIM allows one to directly manipulate the dream of the Godhead at will. Talos is currently using his CHIM and status as one who mantled Lorkhan to hold the Kalpa together, Akatosh is helpless against the turning of a Kalpa and Talos is holding it together like the boss he is.

The Strongest Aedra? LOL The Aedra are weakened and diminished from convention. The Daedroth have the full measure of their power due to not participating in creation, and Vivec used his CHIM to forcibly drag Azura's full essence out of Oblivion and publicly humiliate her with casual ease. CHIM makes you surpass all the Et'Ada to an immeasureable degree.

Here's a list from Micheal Kirkbrine, the guy who wrote most of ES lore and stories, http://www.imperial-library.info/content/forum-archives-michael-kirkbride

Auri-El, the original "Akatosh", is SEVENTH on a list of the top 10 strongest! Talos is the FIRST!
