Legate Alexandros wrote: Well what is Empire right now? It's essentially just Cyrodil, Skyrim and High Rock. Morrowind had long as split (ever since Oblivion crisis), they never trully controled Argonia (Empire was allowed to control the areas close to the border, not the heartland), Summerset Isles, Valenwood, Elsewyer (this one split from the rest letter) formed a Dominion after the Oblivion Crysis, and Hammerfell gained their own independence for Dominion and Empire when they were left to fend for themselves. So now, we might even have Skyrim to split from the Empire of Tamriel as well. That would live Empire with only Cyrodil and High Rock. From what we know from Breton character dialogue in the begining, High Rock got a lot of political intrigues. So, either they going to split soon too, or someone going to take them over, once the direct land route with Empire would be severed (Skyrim no longer part of Empire, no more land connection to High Rock for Cyrodil). The question is, is that what Aldmeri Dominon really wants? Would they move in and take each province on by one and establish the rule of mer over human and beasts alike? Or there would be a number of independent kingdoms in Tamriel? I wonder if High Rock, Hammerfell, Skyrim and Morrowind could form an alliance if Skyrim would become an independent country. Do you think there is a single chance they could work together and face the real treath which is the Thalmor? could they form a new empire as well?
