It's a poignant reflection on his life from a man more prone to using his voice for combat than poetry, and an interesting and somewhat sympathetic end to Ulfric's arc for any player who sided with the Empire of Tamriel. By gods' jest in this grim mist together snared, Stormcloak and Imperial, we wander hopeless, waiting for succor. And so in death, too late, I learn the truth - fed by war, so waxed the power of Alduin, World-Eater - wisdom now useless. If the players have killed Ulfric Stormcloak they'll find the once proud Jarl of Windhelm lost in the mists, where Alduin is devouring the souls of dead Nords trying to make it to the Hall of Valor. Ulfric reflects upon the war: "Skyrim was betrayed, the blood of her sons killed in a doomed struggle against fate. During the quest " Sovngarde" where the player enters the Nordic afterlife, they can find some of the characters from both sides of the Civil War that they killed, depending on which side they chose. There's a lot more detail that could be expanded upon but for the sake of this discussion, I tried to remain brief and summarize the goals of each faction.This is not the only main quest that is changed by the player completing the Civil War questline, however. The Thalmor believes that elves are superior to men, seeking to recreate the first Aldmeri Dominion whose aim was the right the course of history, believing that the younger races, also known as men, have dominated Tamriel for too long.
Lastly, the Thalmor wishes to maintain the civil war, crippling both the Imperials and the Stormcloaks so they can rule over Tamriel. In addition, following Skyrim's independence, the Stormcloaks plan to lift the restrictions set by the White-Gold Concordat, namely the ban on the worship on Talos, execute Thalmor Justicars that were sent to Skyrim to enforce the ban on Talos worship, crown Ulfric the High King of Skyrim, and also prepare Skyrim for a future war with the Aldmeri Dominion. The Stormcloaks aim to remove the Imperial Legion from Skyrim and turn the province into an independent kingdom. The Imperials fight to maintain peace and keep Skyrim in the Empire, believing that as a province of the Empire, Skyrim must abide by its laws and customs, which includes the terms set by the White-Gold Concordat. Even though the Thalmor sides with the Empire and doesn't actively participate in this war, they don't exactly support the Empire, but rather they wish to see the downfall of both factions so they can dominate Tamriel. I won't go much into detail about The Civil War or the events leading up to it, as that can be saved for another discussion due to how much can be said about it, but I do want to talk about the factions or "sides" of the civil war.Įssentially, there are 3 main factions in the civil war the Imperials (the Empire), the Stormcloaks, and the Thalmor. The Skyrim Civil War, also known as the Stormcloak Rebellion is an ongoing civil war in Skyrim during the 4th era.
