Are they brothers? Siblings? Just enemies?

Annotated Anuad and A Children's Anuad calls them to be brothers. The Monomyth says they're two opposite forces. Take your pick. Of course, there's the fact that Anu and Padomay are two halves of the Godhead when it split.

I understand than Anu and Padhome are stasis and change but could someone explain to me what those entail exactly. And while you're at it, could you explain to me when Anuiel and Sithis are/what their function or purpose is?

Double post is double fail

I'd read the Monomyth. As for Sithis and Anuiel, they're the soul of Padomay and Anu, respectively. To go even further, Shor and Auriel are the soul of the soul of Padomay and Anu, respectively

EDIT: I'll recheck my sources. It's been a while.

Here's the best description I can really think of between Anu and Padomay
Anu is infinity
Padomay is 0

This description should aptly work as what they are. White and black, stasis and chaos, infinity and zero, and so on. They are complete opposites. But, don't starting thinking they're good and evil, they're just forces. And like I tell all Dark Brotherhood nuts, you cannot worship gravity, it'll be gravity regardless of what one does and affect everyone the same way. Same way as Anu/Padomay/Anuiel/Sithis

Also, the elves are full of [censored].

Everything and nothing. Existence, and nonexistence. Two forces of one, dependent on the other for existence, opposed to each other. They are related, but different. They complete each other. Hmm...Describes my sibling relationship. lol

It, like many religious ideals, is based on the dualistic philosophy, best represented by the Yin and Yang of Taoism. The Tao produced the one (Godhead), the one produced the two (Anu and Padomay), and the two produced the three. Then the three produced all of existence Take your pick on what the three is: the Tribunal, if you believe the Dunmer propoganda; perhaps Akatosh (Auriel), Lorkhan (Shor), and Magnus; or maybe just Sithis, Anuiel, and Mundus. :shrug: Only MK could give us a definitive answer, I suppose.

One thing about Shor though; Why did he create the mundus if it was against his nature? In the book "Sithis" it said that he was pissed off (figuratively speaking I guess) that Shor created the world and that he "seemed like an Aedra himself" and also became mortal as the rest of the Aedra?

We have 3 different perspectives, mannish, merish, and redguard..ish.

* The mannish (and dunmer) view sees his creation of Mundus as divine mercy, as he created a world where the lesser spirits are given freedom from predictability and can ascend to higher state of being than the gods. Also, his sacrifice was made to show others on what NOT to do.

* The merish view (mainly altmer and I'd say dwemer) sees him as a trickster, who convinced the other gods to weaken themselves in order to be a giant a-hole. Some escaped, and some never participated and are named daedra (not our ancestor). The elves fancy themselves to be awesome kick ass gods back then, but thanks to Shor, everyone became weak pieces of poop, and men are nothing but wandering [censored] faces of Shor. But you must remember the altmer are extremely self-centered and do nothing but go around and smell their own farts.

* As for the redguards, http://imperial-library.info/content/morrowind-monomyth-yokudan-satakal-worldskin, I can't for the life of me recount it.

We also have the Anuad (bosmeri creation myth, according to old annotations) and the Tsaesci myth, where you'd be hard pressed to find a Lorkhan figure at all.

Ah, I see. Thought the altmer perspective was the only one. But yeah Altmers <_< hehe.
