In a war between the seventeen Daedric Princes, considering how long that they have been around each other and in a practically constant state of cold war between themselves. The most violent Daedric Princes would be the first ones to begin the fighting, going against their rivals which would cause them to become weakened. Most would either end up cancelling out or being so weakened that another Prince could come in and take control of their realm, exerting their control and making it their own. But in that position, the less violent princes would stand back and merely watch, some would attempt to manipulate and push until the mid-ground princes began attacking also hitting the weakened war-like princes. But they would end up noticing the manipulation of Mephala and Mora which would make them targets also. Some would even band together to completely demolish their realms.

In that type of war, there wouldn't be one winner. Possibly significant gains could be obtained but then the cycle would begin again. The Princes return and rebuild their realms, even when weakened, if they pooled their power the "winner" would end up being cursed or destroyed also.
