But even with Skyrim the mede empire is weaker then before the Great War, and I really dont see Hammerfell coming back. Period, the mede empire burned that ship, raped its crew and then gave them to the Altmer as slaves. Metophorically speaking. A new Dragonblood Empire would be something else though.
