Conquest of Falkreath

Jarl Tolsirion discovers that Siggdeir was cutting deals with the Thalmor for gold. He has also been diverting taxes from the empire, and using it for his own gain. Tolsirion used this as Cassus Beli to take over the Hold. The Thane gathered the Companions, and marched to the Hold of Falkreath. When Patrols were met, he offered them a deal. Join his army, or remain Loyal to Siggdear and die. He offered a stipend on the spot of 25 gold for anyone that would join him. Very few of the patrols had members that opposed him. When he reached Falkreath City he was met by the forces of the city. He immediately used the Call of Valor Shout to summon warriors of Sovngarde. He offered any guards that surrendered the 25gp stipend. 85% of the force of Falkreath joined him. The remainder of the forces attacked valiantly though they were outnumbered. Half of the force was killed by the companions and the warriors of Sovngarde. The other half surrendered. The Dragon Born Marched to the Jarl’s hall. There he confronted Siggdeir. Surprisingly he did not surrender. Tolsirion used Unrelenting Force shattering his throne and smashing him into the back wall. The Impact killed the Jarl. Tolsirion became the Jarl at the next moot. The vote was unanimous after some Stromcloak sympathizing Thanes were convinced.
