I think it'll be at least something to do with another big war with the Aldmer, since it's been built up as early as Oblivion, before the first great war even took place. Here's my idea:

The game will take place in Elsweyr, you will be a prisoner being transported through the desert by the Thalmor when something goes wrong and the caravan you were on breaks down. Everyone is brought out and they do another check of the prisoners while it is being repaired (character creation takes place here). Suddenly, you are attacked by a group of Imperial soldiers, who destroy the caravan and butcher most of the Thalmor. You are given the choice to follow the attackers and fight the Thalmor, or side with one of the guardsmen and defend the caravan in exchange for freedom. You will also be given the choice to go on your own.

Depending on your choice, you will either help the Imperials and fight the Thalmor, who are funding a group to destroy the towers, join the Thalmor and instead find out that the group deactivating the towers plans to destroy the Thalmor with them, or fight both Thalmor and Imperials by helping an effort to have an independent Elsweyr, while unvieling the plot to destroy the towers and stopping it.

As for the Dwemer, I think they'll be saved for an official "last" Elder Scrolls game, where everything will be revealed.
