It may not have been honourable, but it was fair. Torygg new what he was getting into, it was dirty, but Ulfric won. Naturally, the Empire was all like "HELL NAWH!" and wanted him dead because morality :P

Ulfric didn't kill Elisif because he isn't a monster. Ulfric went there solely for the purpose of challenging High King Torygg for the throne. In a way, both parties can be considered as such. Ulfric was power hungry and wanted the throne, while the High Queen and co. turned a blind eye to the honour code per se of a duel and persecuted him.

No ones perfect, eh?
