I was on my third dragon soul. I was a participant in all 3 kills, not solely responsible for any take down. With the first two, after I absorbed the dragon's soul, the other characters we're for the most part awestruck after witnessing the 'Dragonborn'... They boasted and cheered me.
But on the third dragon, just bones remaining at the entrance to Winterhold, I turned to the other participants and witnesses, expecting more ooo's and ahh's after my soul absorption. But instead, one Winterhold Guard, I believe a Stormcloak, says 'You better get out of here.' I thought he was talking to someone else. Then another guard chimed in, then another. I thought 'Uh oh, what's goin on here, they're lookin at me'. So I trotted thru them heading towards the College. In my peripheral vision I could see one of the guards running along side me looking at me. I heard more and more footsteps. I didn't want to look back but I sensed that these guards were trying to decide whether to attack me or not. They continued to taunt me, but didn't attack. When I reached the College, I got one arrow in the back.
Now this is just frickin awesome. Usually in a game you're either friend or foe. But the anxious feeling building in me as the animosity seemed to be gathering in these guards. Just awesome.
Question would be.. why DID these guards react differently than guards in other cities/towns? I had no bounty on my head at the time. Do the Stormcloaks have a different attitude towards the Dragons?
