Martin doesn't count since he died before he had the chance to take the throne and lead)? Talos is supposed to be portrayed as the protector of civil society and just rulership, maybe he just doesn't see that in the Empire anymore. By the way, Martin isnt dead. He is frozen as a living unmoveable statue, Otherwise the dragonfires would darken. And this might mean Talos either foresaw the Oblivion crisis, or the Stormcloak rebellion.
