==Story== Within this time-skip a lot of stuff happened. The Empire's Potentate was quickly assassinated. A faction of Altmer supremacists named the Thalmor took over the Summerset Isles and seceded, also annexing Valenwood and turning Elsweyr into a client state. Morrowind got royally fucked due to the floating rock in Vivec city finally striking Vvardenfell, the Red Mountain subsequently erupting and the northern half of the country was left uninhabitable, the Argonians invaded the southern half as payback for years of slavery, and what isn't run by vengeful ex-slave lizards or covered in burning ash is in the midst of a political vacuum caused by the collapse of the pro-Imperial House Hlaalu. Then the newly-christened Aldmeri Dominion declared war on the Empire and even sacked the Imperial City. The Imperial Legion drove them out at great cost but the Emperor, Titus Mede II, was forced to sign a ceasefire with several punitive terms including a ban on Talos worship and giving up parts of Hammerfell. These terms (especially the Talos ban) were... controversial to say the least; Hammerfell, fed up with the fuckery of the elves and the Empire at this point, kicked them both out and declared independence. Between this and their handling of the Oblivion Crisis and the Red Mountain eruption, many people within the Empire began seeing it as weak and ineffectual, selling out the non-Cyrodiilic peoples to save their own sorry hides. But for now, an uneasy cold war exists between the two empires and everybody knows Round 2 is just around the corner. Sequel-baiting, if you will. You naturally start as a prisoner, captured for trying to cross borders between Skyrim and Cyrodiil. For your misfortune, you were caught along with the leader of the rebellion Ulfric Stormcloak, and since Empire wants to stomp the rebellion as quick as possible you along with Ulfric and others are to be executed with impunity. It would have been a very short game if it ended that way but luckily, as your head was about to get chopped-off, the main villain flies in and, as the village is being destroyed, you escape. After you escape, having to choose between teaming with the Imperials or with the Stormcloaks, the world opens up and lets you loose to adventure. Between the player's adventures and the Civil War affair, you discover that you are the prophesied [[Dragonborn]]; [[OP| a dragon soul with a mortal body, that can absorb the souls of dragons for power]] <s>rather than whatever-the-fuck [[D&D]] concocted</s>. [[Mary Sue| The character had been specifically created by the gods of time (Ald) and space (Shor)]] to stop the dragon Alduin, son of Ald, from either ruling the world or destroying it prematurely. Only '''YOU''' can save the world.
