There's just few problems with that statement. It is more then likely then Hjalti was mixbreed of Nord and Breton, not Nord and Imperial. Even though Alcaire is described as island kingdom, it is not really an islnd, it located on mainland, where Illiac Bay makes the bend. The Atmoran part of Talos, more then likely came from Ysmir or Wulfhearth of Atmora, so there are little evidence that he ever lived in Atmora, besides by 2 E 600's-700's Atmora probably was unlivable chunk of ice.

The wife of Hjalti's father could have been an Imperial, but the fact that Lariat family of High Rock claim to be distant cousins of Septim and the fact that some how Uriel Septim IV Lariat had Dragonblood, even though he was the son of Kathariah and Gelivere Lariat, can suggest that Lariat family really was related to Septims. It would seem more likely to me that Hjalti's Nordic father, ended up in High Rock in his travels and in Alcaire fell in love with a beautiful (or not that much) woman from Lariat family, who naturally was a Breton. From their union, caame out two sons Hjalti and Agnorith, who seemed to be both named by their father. At the young age, Hjalti traveled to the land of his ancestors, Skyrim. While there, he enlisted in the army and was striving to end the chaos of interregnum that ravged the land for few centuries now. (And no, Talos could not have participated in the events of ESO, I calculated that, he was born 244 years after the date mentioned when ESO takes place.) He soon rose to the rank of the general and at battle of Old Hroldan, he didn't only became Talos the stormcrowned, he also met a Jarl or King of Falkreath by the name Cuhlecaine. That was the begining of beautiful friendship, that ended in 2E 858, (regardless of which story you belive, the official or Arcturian Heresy) with the death of Cuhlecaine and ascention of Talos to the Ruby Throne and founding the 3rd Empire,

So, which one of these do you think more credible and belivable?
