I think the next game will take place either during the 2nd war with the empire or after the Aldmeri Dominion has already won. The civil war played right into their hands, regardless of who wins. If the Stormcloaks win, the Empire is down to Cyrodil, High Rock and a crippled Morrowind. If the empire wins, that adds Skyrim but a lot of soldiers died anyway still leaving them weakened. Maybe they attack before the High King is chosen. Skyrim gets conquered early so they don't have time to choose. That way the developers don't have to document an actual winner in the civil war.
