The Aspect Of Akatosh wrote: Thalmor Dossier. Brainwashed Ulfric, causing him to start a war against the Empire, and they knew Torygg would die. Seems a bit of a stretch. The Thalmor have free reign to move about the Empire and thus Skyrim with impunity, they'd just send a group of mages to locate and destroy its Stone, no?

Not to mention the Dossier only mentions weakening the Empire through rebellion and never mentions Towers.
