IMO I think it should be in Valenwood (maybe with Elsweyr on the side) and involve a Wild Hunt. Probably a little while after Skyrim takes place, with something involving the Dominion as well. (Maybe the Great War is starting in Valenwood? Protecting the country has been the reason for a Wild Hunt in the past so). It'll also have to explain something about Green Sap tower being deactivated / unknown.

For everyone saying "All of Tamriel", it's not going to happen. I am 99% sure it's not going to be more than one or two provinces. Just like i'm 99% sure you won't play TLD, you won't be the Emperor, yadda yadda. As for the civil war either they're gonna make the Empire win in the end, or they're gonna make it pretty much irrelevant (and it's been "forgotten" in time or something).

I'm really liking the idea of the Dominion + Green Sap, because it's easily linked together. The Dominion want to unmake man and destroy the towers to become gods again, but the Bosmer aren't gonna let them kill the Green Sap (which is holy to them) and so a Wild Hunt begins. Maybe you could play an Imperial soldier who comes to stop the Wild Hunt / Dominion (by Imperial I mean as in the faction).

For everyone saying that you should be able to choose the Thalmor over the Empire, that's not gonna happen. That's like being able to help Mehrune in Oblivion.
