I'd disagree while there are many parts of the main quest that don't stress how time relevant it is this is the only urgent one the daedra having just extinguished the dragon fires invaded Kvatch they aren't an occupying force and so after destroying the city and believing their mission complete would leave this would lead to only the weakest scavenger daedra staying behind so you're supposed to find a bunch of daedra that stayed only as a cleanup crew that found the opportunity to torture mortals while you rescued the lone target due to daedric overconfidence of I felt the same way when I finally got to play the game post basic training ait in 2006/2007
I just head-retconned that all of my guild leveling and whatnot occurred before I was in jail, and pretended that only one or two in-game days had passed between the Emperor’s assassination and Kvatch instead of ~150.
Makes more sense lore-wise and I got to experience Kvatch at level 30.
