@GarouxBloodline, the only real problem with that story is that the rebellion didn't begin until after the markarth incident, because ulfric was asked by jarl igmund to get rid of the forsworn in exchange for free talos worship in the city. and remember, the stormcloaks have never really directly fought the thalmor in open war, only the empire. as time went on, ulfric's priorities shifted from wanting free worship to simply taking what wont be given to them, basically he's a nordic braveheart. and its obvious that the empire accepting the concordat means that all the fighting and dying in the great war really stood for nothing. and ousting all non nords from skyrim. also a priority. lol.
