Hello fellow Dragonborns, I've just had the world of Skyrim react to my actions that weren't related to a quest (I think).
I was walking to Riften, and had just passed through Shor's Stone. Just outside of Shor's Stone is a fort, Fort Greenwall. Usually Fort Greenwall is occupied by bandits (if you haven't started the Civil War questline). Well the bandits attacked the Dragonborn and well, the Dragonborn did what annoyed Dragonborns do to bandits. Almost immediately after clearing the fort I received a quick fetch quest and I went to complete it, afterwards when I came back through Fort Greenwall the Stormcloaks had occupied it, bringing along a horse that I can freely borrow.
This is a bit surprising (and cool) to me simply because the world of Skyrim doesn't usually seem to react to anything, except to events happening after the final quest in a major questline.
So what unexpected depth have you encountered in Skyrim?
(also, why is it that I can't borrow a horse from any of the Imperial/Stormcloak camps if I join a side, but (without even being a member of the Stormcloaks) I clear a random fort from bandits and the Stormcloaks are like "thanks bro, you can borrow our horse"?)
