Akatosh most likely views Dragons as "babies" because all Dragons and the current Time Gods are shards of the original Time God. Akatosh, Auriel, Alduin, etc, are all just the "bigger" shards. The Dragons are small shards. I honestly am confused on what the Time-God is. Vehk's Teachings seems to place Akatosh/Auri-El as the Opposite force to Lorkhan who is the Space-God, but most people seem to say that Akatosh and Auri-El are merely break offs from the actual Time-God.

Is Lorkhan not the Space-God? Is he just a break off like Akatosh is to the Time-God?

and if Auri-El is a break off of the Time-God, does that make the Time-God Anui-El? (which breaks the whole concept of universal duality as Sithis is the equal/opposite to Anui-El)

I want a refrence that states that Akatosh/Auri-El are not the Time-God, because otherwise, I don't get it...

Anu-Padomay

Anuiel-Sithis

Auriel/Akatosh-Lorkhan

Alduin, Alkosh, Tosh Raka, Aka-Tusk, etc. - Shezarr, Shor, Sheor, etc.

This is how the duality appears to me, but the whole thing Time-God seems to break that.

Well, mortal believe can form gods in TES.

As far as I understand it, it is like this: All bigger shards (Auriel, etc) and the smaller shards (the Dragons) are (or were) actually one Time God. Mortal believe made that Time God break. Akatosh, Auriel, Alduin, etc, are essentially the same but not THE same, if you understand me. They all developed their own mind and can even hate each other. For example: What happens when Alduin returns to Nirn? His brother/mirror image Akatosh sends a Dragonborn to stop him.

They are all parts of the same thing, but they think differently.

Lorkhan and the Time Gods seems to me like Spacetime in physics. They are bound to each other. We all know of the Lorkhan/Auriel/Trinimac Enatiomorph. Another example of this is Pelinal Whitestrake. He is an avatar of Lorkhan and Akatosh, send back in time to make Akatosh possible. Pelinal is also damn crazy. ''"O Aka, for our shared madness I do this!" Someone apparently also called him a Shezzarine, but was later killed by moths: "It is a solid truth that Morihaus was the son of Kyne, but whether or not Pelinal was indeed the Shezarrine is best left unsaid (for once Plontinu, who favored the short sword, said it, and that night he was smothered by moths).''" Pelinal probably just wanted to say that he's both. Aka and Shezzar. Time and Space...

Time and Space coexist in our Universe and out bound together. I one breaks, the other one breaks too (for example, in a Black Hole). This is also the case with Aka and Lorkhan, with Anu and Padomay, with all the Time Shards and all Space Gods. Aka is the Time God and consists out of all Time Gods that exist, while Lorkhan seems to be rather unique.
