I don't see how Vlad could "penetrate" the council, by overt, or covert means. There may be many easterners around, but just how many of them are going to be part of the Jhereg? Vlad would stand out like a sore thumb. He could _perhaps_ _buy_ someone on the council, or close to the council, but that would take, well, the contents of the Jhereg Treasury? I wonder how Kiera is treated by the Jhereg now. I wonder if she is in trouble because of her "friend, the easterner" is trouble.
