    I would like to make one last point to all you imperials.Talos is Tiber Septim the true dragonborns and the true emperors the septims are.And anyone who can truly call themselves imperials would die for the worship of talos.

    martin septim is blood to talos, and martin turned into akatosh so now talos lives forever in akatosh

    Falk FIrebeard and Elisif are dogs of the Empire!

    Elisif herself wanted the post of High Queen as much as Ulfric wanted it.

    I have to clap on the part about the High Elves in WIndhelm

    But if you read the Talos Mistake (Found at the shrine of Talos overlooking Windhelm). You believe it was right to ban Talos. Because people started remembering him as a god not as a man.

    Skyrim:The Talos Mistake - UESPWiki

    "But when Tiber Septim passed to Aetherius, there came to be a Ninth Divine - Talos, also called Ysmir, the "Dragon of the North." The man who was so loved in life became worshipped in death. Indeed, it can be argued that Talos, the Ninth Divine, became even more important than the Eight that had preceded him, at least to humans. For he was a god who was once just a man, and through great deeds actually managed to ascend to godhood."

    Sounds like "Propaganda encouraging acceptance of the ban on the worship of Talos" to me.

    Why aren't the elves going after Arkay worship then, who was also a mortal? The arkay elf priest even said so at the little girl's funeral.

    Sadly this video is highly uninformative and highly biased towards Ulfric, First of all, The Blades would not and i repeat would not help the war effort in any way, shape or form, seeing how they are the personal guard of Emperor and the raging fight with the dragons would keep them from joining the fight in the first place. On to the second thing, Seeing how the holds are pretty much evenly spread out between backing the Empire and Ulfric, even if you are able to set a "pawn" jarl in the imperial backing holds, the men and women of said hold will continue to fight against Ulfric making a "United Skyrim" a highly unlikely outcome, and that leads me into the third, the Thalmor would then spread up into a unbacked Cyrodill crushing any resistance and making a full march onto a still divided Skyrim and would crush them as easily as they would of Cyrodill. Now onto a simple answer to the Imperial and High Elf living in the two best houses in the city...Gold, it could of been easy to turn a man who is fighting a war with men and women who need money for the war effort and to receive special treatment. Oh and going back a little bit to the part of a divided Skyrim, with the fighting after the Civil War, the Forsworn could just as easily swarm the holds in the Reach, taking a massive chunk of Skyrim with it. Going to the part of the Legion keeping the Dominion out, it is true, with the treaty they were able to keep the Empire and with it Skyrim and what i think you are forgetting is Skyrim was fighting too and they still lost the Imperial City for a year. And onto the part of Hammerfell, they fought for 5 years with no sides making any true pushes, ending in a treaty know as Second Treaty of Stros M'kai. And about the part of Stormcloaks allying its self with the Thalmor is highly possible in the future (if Stormcloaks win), a change of leadership among the Thalmor, a new leader among the Stormcloaks, and a peace talk here, a peace talk there and BOOM a new alliance.

    In short, this was a (as said before) highly uninformative and highly biased and has no research in it at all except to further his/her point of Ulfric being a "true" High King, but onto my decision why not let the moot decide as it should be.

    And about Talos being a God or Not, that is up to debate as no one can be sure if he was a man turned god or just a very well known Dragonborn but i place my faith in the Void above silly things like the Divine


    Also i have my doubts of the poster having any knowledge of politics and military strategy

    The Aldmeri has four gods who use to be mortals, even their chief god. Notice the last sentence:
