Upon my honour I do swear undying loyalty to the Emperor, Titus Mede II, and unwavering obedience to the officers of his great Empire. May those above judge me, and those below take me, if I fail in my duty. Long live the Emperor! Long live the Empire!
In the time of Titus Mede II it seems a bit ironic
Wdym?
If you talk with people in Skyrim, regardless of their opinion on Empire itself, literally nobody believes Titus will do anything good, at best they maybe hope entire thing will not break in nearby future.
