It's their desire for power which is their undoing though. Once the Forsworn are purged from the Reach a good fraction of their power/pressure is gone, and as you said, there's two dead Silver-Bloods already. Of course this is all speculation, but in my opinion a lot of control was built with...
I'm not tring to defend that hag, I was originally trying to point at the fact that both the Stormcloaks and the Empire have evil people on their side. The Silver-Bloods too can make you suffer to the point where death would seem a mercy, that's what they have their friggin' thugs for, just like...
It's not about power here, it's about what you use it for.
Maven has ties and influence even in the Empire, but does she use it to enslave or the like? Apparently not:
Maven: "Hemming, have you dispatched that letter I gave you yesterday?"
Hemming: "Yes, and I sent it with our fastest courier...
How? Maven even though she's no Jarl practically already runs the city; the Silver-Bloods might not have that much influence on the Jarl, but almost every land, business or property in the Reach is owned/influenced by them.
She has the Thieves Guild in her pocket? The Silver-Bloods will send...
I'm just going to throw my newest findings in here.
Thongvor: "How goes the trade in and out of the city?"
Reburrus: "Very well, Thongvor. With the Stormcloaks here to help, the Silver-Blood family control nearly every route in and out of the city."
Yngvar: "Except the ones attacked by...
Since you asked me soo nicely...
I've written out the parts that I personally think are significant; the rest is mostly just what Colin/the Penitus Oculatus guy are doing/thinking, and he doesn't have any clue throughout the book(s) anyway.
About the old fella:
He was just standing there...
Sure, if asked nicely.
Oh, and only if nobody ever goes on like "How do we know she really quoted it from the book, and didn't make it up?"
Otherwise I'll burn their house down.
Hmm, would it even be legal if I gave a part of the book away? I mean, for a proper perspective he'd need to see the text, not just another opinion/subjective understanding of it.
Farengar begs to differ.
Yeah, he dies. The spy was rather smart though, I mean even the Emperor trusted her (at least to some degree). At some point in the book the Emperor even suspected his own brother a little being the cause of his son's disappearance.
Trust is good, control is better. And trust has no room in...
Not gonna happen. They're in hiding and operating from the shadows. The Empire isn't aware of them, doesn't even pursue them, and those who did survive the Great War know pretty damn well that they must remain in hiding until either the Thalmor are gone someday or the sun drops out of the sky...
If only it would be just one head that would need to be removed... the High Elves always were arrogant, I honestly don't know how they'll get rid of the Thalmor ideology. Unless of course most of the generation influenced by them dies off with the next war.
I'm assuming you haven't read the TES novels. Let me clarify then;
If the Thalmor can't have an open presence, they'll take the underground route. In the Empire for example, they had operations going in so called "Thalmor nests", mostly spionage and getting information (although, as the...
I've actually started to get used to this idea recently. Would make for a lot of dramatic game stuff and killing your enemies would probably become a passion.
No, it wouldn't. If no Dragonborn intervened, the Dragons would "win", but not the Civil War.
More like Skyrim/world domination or...
