In the Elder Scrolls series? We interact with daedra in the games, but what about the nine/eight divines? The only one I can think of that we actually see do anything is Akatosh, at the end of the main quest in Oblivion, and even then that could conceivably be attributed to a particularly powerful blessing on the Amulet of Kings (which was obviously a very powerful magical artifact regardless). So is there something in the games that I haven't played through or that I'm forgetting about?

Another thing I'd like to add that I find strange is that the Nine Divines... Are actually good. All of the daedra have complex desires that don't typically conform to traditional mortal ideas of good or evil, as you might expect of immensely powerful beings within a diverse pantheon, but the divines are all total goody-goodies. And, for another thing, if there really are these incredibly powerful beings who can control the daedric lords and are so powerful and benevolent, why don't they get off their asses and do something to help out beyond giving people a little magicka boost when they pray to you?
