Dragaera

New to the list...(Impressions after re-reading it all)

*check one, check one-two* Is this thing on?

Anyway, hello everyone! I'm a long time fan of Brust's
Dragaera work and I've just reread the whole series of
books. I stumbled over one incident, maybe it's in the
FAQ, or the time line somewhere, but...

Upon re-reading "The Viscount...", I read about how Aerich
went to visit Tazendra, whom had been out of contact for a while, 
only to discover that the surroundings of her mansion had
been devastated through fire or sorcery, and there was a
Teckla answering the door for Aerich, saying that "I am Master
here", etc.

This struck me as something I had read earlier, but I could
not for the life of me find it. Was it someone that Vlad 
encountered, a Teckla who told his story of how a huge fire
had devastated his farm, he hid in a small outhouse and 
survived, and when he went to investigate, he found that all
the farms around him had been destroyed. I do believe he 
stayed at his Lord's mansion and was later chased around the 
mansion by a lone lord coming to look for the Master of the house?

Anyone know what I'm talking about? :-)
