Incredible conclusion to that storyline, but I can't help but feel a couple characters were wasted just as they started to get really interesting (dammit, Astrid, we could have had the most beautiful kills together). When you deal with the cave job given by Firebeard and talk to Jarl Eisif/widow of Torygg the High King she'll ask you to take Torygg's War Horn to a Talos Shrine since she couldn't do it before for his funeral because of 'current events'. Torygg didn't want to because he recognized that the Thalmor are a "sleeping giant" that Skyrim could not beat alone, many Nords are part of the Imperial Legion, the food and resources of the Empire are important to the survival of Skyrim's people, and finally because though the worship of Talos is banned Talos was once a man named Tiber Septim and he created the Empire therefore it is "Talos's" Empire. Anyway it's believed that if Ulfric just asked Torygg to declare the independence of Skyrim it actually might have happened.
I guess Ulfric never knew because he, you know, killed him. I gatherd that before the civil war when there was a moot as a result of the death of Torygg's father Istlod, which voted Torygg High King, Torygg actually respected and admired Ulfric when he continually talked of the independence of Skyrim (almost to the point of treason) at the moot. I talked to Jarl Elisif the Fair (widow of the high king), Sybille Stentor and Falk Firebeard. My final decision came from visting the place where it all began, the Blue Palace of Solitude, I was even more mind f**ked then when I read the Ulfric Dossier. I've talked to blacksmiths, store clerks, clans, general supporters from both sides, V.I.P's like the Jarl of Whiterun, commanders of both Imperial and Stormcloak camps, refered to sensitive Thalmor documents and even talked to Ulfric himself.
I have talked to many folks on both sides for my research. I have made my final decision in the Civil War of Skyrim.
