Next Vlad Book (was: Dumas parallels...)

I'm voting for Vlad killing everybody in his way until the Empress
tells him to stop lest he unbalance society, whereupon he informs
her that his GW makes him able to assassinate her despite the Orb's
protection, after which he installs Kragar as the Council/Heir.
I'm also looking forward to him taking down StY and making her swear
at swordpoint not to mess with the East.
