As much as she seems to like Vlad and all, politically I don't think she could do it. She might want to, but as she said, The Teckla are the prey of the Jhereg implying she accepts them and their role as part of the Empire. So could she go meddling in what is an internal house matter? She could maybe suggest it might be unwise to keep going after him, but that's all. Cheers Mark
