To be fair, you've got some sympathizers. Indeed, if you were okay with not simplifying the entire system down into the smallest possible number of variables I dare say that you'd have quite a few more.
The Daedric Lord Jyggalag wasn't capable of quantifying literally everything because it was inherently chaotic, you know...

I presume you mean Mundus, which is the world, rather than Tamriel, which is just a continent, but the answer is the same: no.
The Aedra were the ones who created Mundus, and bound up most of their power in it unwittingly. The Daedra were the cheeky fucks who did nothing to contribute to the creation of the world, but came along later to enjoy the benefits, and throw around their unreduced power. Destroying Mundus (or just Tamriel) would break the daedras' favourite toys, kill a bunch of worshippers they show no signs of actually needing, and make things considerably more boring for them, but it would not kill them.

On the vote, I don't know honestly. More trolling shenanigans or an attempt at bargaining? Meh, I could be convinced for both this time.

Okay, okay, I've seen a lot of DBZ Abridged references crop up here and now apparently I've made one by accident
Now seems like a good time to mention I've never watched it... like at all. Ever.

Your initial reaction, to hide behind Morlia and ask for an adult, while intensely amusing pales in comparison with the alternative open to you. To quote a certain insufferable sword....
"Fool! my mind contains more secrets than I could share with you in a human lifetime!" Maximum ham! Maximum ego! Maximum Excalibur mode activate! Sadly that doesn't seem to dissuade the mage attached to you octopus style. You notice that one of your shoulder pad spikes has pierced through one sleeve of his robe. You sigh a little, overwhelming arrogance doesn't seem to be working how you expected. Maybe this guy is used to summoning dremora or similar. Perhaps a brain teaser will solve your little problem.
"If you wish to learn from me," you grab the mage by the back of his robes and drag him off yourself. You hear a couple of tearing sounds but his robes don't actually come apart at the seams, thank everything. Dangling in the air, eyes round and shining with anticipation and excitement, the mage nods eagerly. "Tell me then, how many rocks does it take to kill a Daedric Prince?" Everyone crammed into your head knows the answer to this one, it's in the name after all. The mage's brows furrow a little, creating deep little wrinkles. Then his frown deepens and he starts muttering about magic and rocks and the hypothetical wards that would protect a Daedric Prince.
You let him back down to the ground gently, making sure he can stand on his own before you let go. Beside you Morlia lets out a heartfelt sigh. Diana grabs onto your wrist, eyeing the surroundings warily. There are a couple of other mages in the entrance area. All of them have taken absolutely no notice of the performance you just put on. Either this particular mage jumping on daedra and babbling is rather routine for them, not especially likely, or they just don't care that an unknown breed of daedra just walked into their building. Well... they are destruction specialists if you're remembering right.
"You know, boyo, some might think you're being overly forward," the mage starts out of trying to work out your riddle. Morlia makes a slightly strangled choking sound. "Grabbing a lady's daedra the moment you meet her." Your tone of voice is such that it's very obvious, at least to you and Morlia, that if you could waggle your eyebrows they'd be in overdrive right now.
"F-Fast don't say such things!" Morlia says, her words inhabiting the curious space between a mortified hiss and outraged scream. "I... I am so sorry for my daedra he's... he's probably one of the Mad God's daedra." Morlia's bright red and lying for you. Or maybe she's lying to try and avoid attention on her, she did summon you after all. Somehow.
"Oh come on, you know I'm kidding." You protest quickly. The mage is a little pink now he's processed just what you were on about. Excellent you have his full attention. "Mage-guy, we can talk about how I'm a bit odd and the prince I serve all you like so long as you compensate me and my companions. So long as Morlia here agrees to it."
"I'm sure that I can teach some spells, perhaps procure some basic equipment, if that is worth the exchange." The mage offers, glancing between you and Morlia. You nod, that sounds great to you but, as always, Morlia's a totally different proposition. She seems to be biting the inside of her cheek as she considers.
"That seems adequate in exchange for several hours of my daedra's time." She says slowly. "However I would like to be present, Fast has a habit of saying things he should not, as you've seen." She half smiles at the man, quite charming now that the tomato blush has gone from her cheeks.
"Of course of course!" The mage agrees eagerly before noticing Diana, half hidden behind your armour. "And your shy friend? She's welcome to sit in as well, of course." You don't even have to look to know Diana's frantically shaking her head. She wants out of the mage's guild ASAP.
"Maybe Diana could sort out an inn for us?" You suggest slowly.
"Yeah, sure, I can do that." Diana takes the offered way out like a drowning man grabbing a life preserver.
"You're sure?" You ask, a little aware that it could be dangerous for a young woman alone in a big city. You won't be there to keep an eye on her and there's at least one thief stalking the streets.
"Yeah I'm sure." Diana nods more firmly. "I... er I'll wait outside once I'm done? Or I could go finish selling our stuff and buy some things if we have enough money?"

[X] Explain about your Daedric Prince, Jyggalag, and his current situation.
-[X] Inform him of your ability to create Priests of Order: paraphrase it as a simple ritual that allows people to specialize in the casting of spells related to your Prince's paradigm, although geometric patterns and simpler effects are, obviously, far less complicated, and will therefore benefit more noticeably (To explain the crystalline aesthetic).
-[X] Proceed to note that, for the very same reason that Jyggalag was so incredibly powerful even among his fellow Princes, 'his paradigm' encompasses literally everything quantifiable, which is to say all conventional matter. Would that be at all interesting, to one who has dedicated themselves to the study of physical effects?
Screw it, I'm going full Team Order (Well, now it's a team, anyways). Their chat color is better, and their premise doesn't consist of literally doing inane things for the sole purpose of acting irrationally.

If you believe this approach will be the most likely to succeed in recruiting a Priest, then I support it. I am aware my strengths do not include social interaction with mortals.

But- but we're preserving our own life!! Following an orderly path will lead us to a Game Over! Our collective hive mind taken over by a zealot with a stick up his/her/fluid gender selection ass!
Have you no shame?!
I watched Caer Salt be built upon the ashes of broken dreams of plans and waifus. I was there when drafts where deleted and updates disappeared into the virtual streams of the internet. I gazed upon the tears of trolled comrades as they realized they had voted for seppuku.
All those moments will disappear once we're gone... like ashes of a dream erased.
Is it truly time to go already?
Excuse me, I think I got a bit sentimental there... Allow me to get my Daedric handkerchief.

[X] Diana should go run some errands while she has the time.
[X] Morlia is only really half-right about me being a daedra of Sheogorath.
-[X] Jyggalag, the lord of order and logic was once the most powerful of the Daedric princes, and his power caused the other daedra to hate and fear him. Unable to kill him entirely, they instead cursed with madness, turning him into the mad god, Sheogorath.
--[X] They were not able to completely overpower him though, and around once every age he turns back into Jyggalag and reconquers the shivering isles before the curse once more takes hold. Actually one of them will probably happen within your lifetime, although most of the fighting should be confined to the Shivering Isles.
---[X] Perhaps because Sheogorath currently reigns, despite being a daedra of Jyggalag, I am somewhat infected by madness, and occupy a similar space between madness and reason to mortals.
----[X] Give him a brief description of the capabilities of Knights of Order and Priests of Order.
I see no reason to conceal greymarch from him. Forewarned is forearmed, and it is nice having forearms.
