Well, I concede defeat! It's true, there's a lot of stuff I missed out, particularly concerning the Sotrmcloaks. This is probably because I haven't done the Stormcloak side, I always go for the Legion.

My example of the Grey Quarter wasn't a particularly good one, it's true. But, you have to admit, Nords do have quite a strong nationalistic ideology.

The Markarth Incident isn't something that I am an expert on, it's true. Also, I was less talking about why the war started, more about during and after it. Whether or not Ulfric is power-hungry or a humble servant of Skyrim is always quite ambiguous. I like to think he is doing it for his people, but there's always some doubt in my mind.

With the 'what happens next' bit, I didn't really want to talk about the Dragonborn. PLayers can decide to go with either side, and also the character that you play in TES games has a habit of disappearing in some way after their duty is done, so it's uncertain if the Dragonborn would have been around long enough to become a new Talos.

Anyway, next blog I do will be about what happens next concerning the Thalmor, so I'll bear in mind what you have said.
