I haven't really been following the theories on Skyrim's dragon plot, so I was wondering if anybody can suggest what I should read up on to understand? I've seen people referencing the Yokudan pantheon, which confuses me. Why does the Yokudan pantheon have anything to do with the Nordic Alduin?

Another thing that I've been wondering that pertains to Skyrim: Is Akatosh a descendant of Anu? Or IS Akatosh Anu? I always thought he was a descendant. Overall this is very confusing. I'm somewhat familiar with the story of Anu and Padomay and what's discussed in Morrowind and Oblivion, but other than that, I'm a bit lost in all of this religious talk.
