Which Uriel would you be referring to? The first Uriel just happend to rule during the establishment of the mages, and fighters guild. Titus Mede on the other hand may be villified yet he personally lead the army that retook the Imperial City at the battle of the red ring. The great war was bloody and long, had the emperor not signed a peace treaty it would have continued possibly for many years. The army of the Alderi Dominion had been defeated but imagine the total destruction that would overtake Tamriel should the empire had attempted to invade 3 hostile kingdoms. Valenwood would be horrible guerrila warfare, Elsweyr would be a gruelling invasion of a desert kingdom, and lastly the invasion of Alinor home of some of the strongest mages currently living. Those facts in mind Mede had to ask if it was worth the empires soul.
