That statement just shows how little you know about the Thalmor. Legal reasons to stay in Skyrim... Seriously? Because the Thalmor are such law abiding people, right?They'll have no legal excuse. That's why they're in Skyrim. It's how they started kidnapping people in the first place, right? Because Ulfric and the Stormcloaks openly stated they broke the law, yes? Well once they no longer have that they have to work under cover, which won't be an easy feat while Ulfric is in Power.
You have to look at this from the Thalmor's point of view.
1) Mult locations they could safely sneak their way into the country
2) Mult factions they could barter an alliance with for long term gain (Forsworn, Rogue Jarls, Disgruntled Veterans/Citizens)
Rimfaxe is right about the Reachmen though. Prob wasn't thinking about this point, however it was Ulfric who drove them to the hills and broke their hearts.
So yeah... if I was a Forsworn and the Stormcloaks took over I'd be totally pissed off.
