Hey I've been thinking of an idea that Bethesda could do regarding the forsworn, though some of the ideas require the fictional High King DLC.

Ok first idea. You go to Druadach Redoubt and you start talking to him about helping him get back the Reach (with some specifics like no innocents to be harmed etc) However he explains to you that being locked up for so long some forsworn have returned to the dark old ways (all those who attack you basicly) and how he no longer has control over them. This starts a storyline where you help Madanach unit the Forsworn under his banner. Once that is done it starts a questline where you try to convince the Empire/ Igmund to return the reach to the Forsworn or assault Markarth if you choose the stormcloak storyline.

Idea 2 Ok so you remember I said that High King dlc could be you becoming high king (lets forget specifics and remember it was an idea I had) if that say was to happen what if Bethesda left it up to you with what happens to the foresworn. So say you are now High King and you are friends with Madanach so you  go to Druadach Redoubt and talk to him about making him the Jarl of Markarth and allowing the Forsworn to take control of the Reach as long as other races are allowed to stay there and that it must remain part of Skyrim.

But what if you kill Madanach. Well for this I am going to use you sideing with the stormcloaks and that questline now completed. It could start with you getting a message from Ulfric telling you to meet with him. He explains how he is tired of the Forsworn menace and is sending his armies there to root them out. He tells you to go to the reach camp to get your objectives. After that its basicly the civil war storyline again of you joining attacks on Forsworn held forts etc, for small time places juch as small caves and that you are sent alone or with a smaller group to rid the place of them.

The imperial side is slightly diffrent. Instead you recive a letter from Igmund you want you help yad yada yad you get idea. However this time its a bit like in oblivion were you went getting soldiers for the battle of Bruma. Instead however you go around each provance asking for help (Most will help inculding Tulius while  Maven and Siddgeir won't) then its basicly the same old story.

After each of these ideas forts and large strongholds the Forsworn will be replaced with either Markarth guards,Imperial/Stormcloak soldiers, while cave and small place with be replaced with bandits or others.
