Small adjustment to the dialogue order during Alduin's initial attack on Helgen, so that the Tullius isn't asking about something he can't see, and the sentries aren't shouting about Alduin in the clouds when he's literally right on top of the tower.

So there I am, about to get my head cut off for the umpteenth time, when it occurs to me that a tiny adjustment could make this whole process a little more bearable. The dialogue goes as follows:
Tullius is standing closest to the tower, he can't see the dragon that just flew out from behind the mountains, so him asking "What in Oblivion is that?" makes little sense, unless he's talking about the noise, which he dismissed as nothing about a minute ago. The Imperial Captain asking "Sentries! What do you see?" makes sense as she's trying to get an overview of something that has changed, but given she also dismissed the noise less than a minute ago it's a little out of the blue. The Imperial Solider on sentry duty declaring "It's in the clouds!" must be have missed the dragon swooping in and no surprise as they're clearly blind, Alduin is about to touch down, not up in the clouds. The Stormcloak Soldier gets it right, that is indeed a dragon!
So I merely switched the places of two pieces of dialogue:
Now the sentry isn't incompetent, they've spotted a threat. The Captain is prompted to ask for more information. And as Alduin settles in for landing, Tullius asks a question that is promptly answered by one of the Stormcloaks.
- Tullius: What in Oblivion is that?
- Imperial Captain: Sentries! What do you see?
- Imperial Soldier: It's in the clouds!
- Stormcloak Soldier: Dragon!
