Afaict the original version is perfectly consistent with Vlad's conviction that his stories will never get back to him. How else could he be sure unless the interviewer was from an unreachable place? And how could such a person know about the local flora and customs? (Assuming that the conversation is psychic and alingual - a fluent Dragaeran speaker would know about House names, but wouldn't be a very trustworthy repository of dangerous info. Hmm, still wondering about whether it's possible to lie in a psychic conversation.)
