User blog comment:VaughanTES/The Second Great War?!/@comment-5558140-20121013071001

if the dwemer come back they will be confused as shit, not to mention that nobody really knows wth happened to them after what kagrenac tried to do. I'd say that your just gonna be hearing about them as usual, but not encountering them. I honestly doubt that the wood elves in valenwood would help the thalmor by choice, since the thalmor pretty much went adolph hitler on them. morrowind hasn't really been on anyones side since red mountain erupted. the last septim to really hold imperial control there was uriel VII, so i doubt that house hlaalu will be concerned with fighting the thalmor so much as rebuilding once the argonians are gone. the entire "civil war" in skyrim was engineered by the thalmor. they capure ulfric as a prisoner of war, but then they just let him go. they planted the seeds of rebellion right there. he wants talos worship back and the elves gone and everyone who sacrificed their lives in the great war wasn't for nothing. so he says talos worship is ok, this breaks the concordat, and the empire is put in a difficult spot again, they can either get back on with the great war, or stop ulfric. the choice was obvious. as for hammerfell? who knows, they have a pretty valid reason to be pissed off, they would probably jump at any chance to oppose the empire. if you want a realistic opinion, i'd say that if there is a TES 6 installment, it will take place so far ahead of skyrim that the great war and all issues that have taken place due to it will already have been resolved. this really opens it all up for another elder scrolls prophecy or some iminent crisis and really allows bethesda's writers to beef up the lore. final prediction- empire disbanded. all 9 provinces secede to become independent or join up with other provinces. wars errupt as often as the sun rises. and here's your twist- the mysterious akaviri come back to tamriel, not seen on the continent since reman cyrodiil drove them off in the first era. why? that's more speculation. maybe something bad happened in their homeland and they need help. the next player character might have the option to play an akaviri race. its all speculation until the writers put it in ink.
