Skyrim:Joining the Legion

Summary

Anytime after escaping Helgen during Unbound, anyone you meet with ties with the Imperial Legion (like Hadvar) will encourage you to travel to Solitude to enlist. This will start the miscellaneous quest Imperial Introductions. In particular, some of them will specify to talk to Legate Rikke at Castle Dour. When you enter, you will witness her trying to convince an ill-informed General Tullius that Nords will follow their traditions, even in a time when loyalty is tested. Apparently, rebel leader Ulfric Stormcloak is preparing to attack Whiterun so the two strategists have their hands full. After the scene, if you try to speak to Legate Rikke, General Tullius will approach you. He will recall you from Helgen and, by any of your dialogue options, point you towards Legate Rikke for putting someone as resourceful as you to good use.

The quest primarily involves joining the Imperial Legion, emphasizing loyalty and lawfulness. It raises status within the faction but offers minimal material rewards.
