im not expecting it to bury my sins only to protect my forests. if I have to id rather pay with septims im simply trying to stay the neutral party but if its choosing sides between people who abandoned us when we needed them most or to take a leap of faith and still be independent with my lands then ill take the choice that requires less bloodshed on my part. is it so hard to believe that the bosmer seek redemption from the great war? we may be elves but we would rather eat queen alanor then to let anyone take over our lands

Yea, that's why you slaughtered the Imperial garrisons and helped kill any Bosmer that disagreed with the actions, right? In the world of politics, there are none who are innocent.

Seriously, though, one would think in 5 years the Thalmor could have rooted(ehehe) out those dissenters still remaining in Valenwood. By 4e205, Valenwood would have a pretty sweet gig as part of the Dominion. Same with Elsweyr, being a client-state isn't all too bad and the way Khajiiti psychology works would mean that if the Thalmor told them they brought back their precious moons they'd be more than happy to bend knee. Khajiit always put the clan before the individual, it's why the Mane wasn't so much a national leader but more of just some wise guy whose advice they would listen to and give some thought.
