2. Then show proof, becuase a lot of people already discused this.

3. Technically they can, they don't just arest people for worshiping Talos, the only people the can't directly arest, is people with higher power. 1. That's not 'harming' someone's overall position, that's harming someone's goal.

2. The Markarth Incident, I'm fairly certain I've already been over this.


 * Ulfric gets captured by the Thalmor


 * Ulfric abandons the Legion, becomes a Thalmor agent, returns to Skyrim and starts making his private army


 * The Great War ends


 * Ulfric is asked for his aid in retaking the Reach, Ulfric demands free Talos worship


 * Thalmor find out about it, betray Ulfric


 * Ulfric becomes uncooperative and starts his rebellion

3. So a citizen of Markarth is someone with higher power? They can't arrest anybody they please.
