I assume Akatosh created him from another aspect of itself, shortly after Lorkhan was defeated by Auri-El. After all, he is the only dragon who can travel to Aetherius/Sovngarde. Alduin is the opposite to Shor who is a direct break off from Lorkhan. If Alduin was a break off of a break off then that just wouldn't seem equal to Shor.
