Whereas his counterpart (a Dunmer heading to Solitude to join the Legion) gets to Solitude, enters the city, goes to Castle Dour, and sits around there for the rest of the game. Not sure if the Imperial vanishing at the Windhelm gate is a bug or intentional. I would guess it's a coincidental bug. Even if the Imperial got rejected for not being a Nord, surely he would've made it to the Palace of the Kings first.
