I was not talking about the main quest of Oblivion, I was talking about the SI main questline, where you HAVE to kill the geatekeeper to get anywhere other than passwall and a couple of dungeons.

While you can run around and ignore the quest after you escape from prison, you still have the amulet of kings on your person.

If you have found an read The Oblivion Crisis, then you know that the main questline of Oblivion is canon, seeing as you hold the amulet of kings, and in the book it is directly stated that it was the same prisoner who escaped from the prison that performed everything in the main questline.
