Does Vlad or Loiosh know where Telnan lives?

And really, I think Vlad at least partly wanted to wave a deadly knife
in Verra's face and get her to give him... something. Basically, he
was just aching to mug the goddess.

He didn't have in mind at the time to get her to help him by inspiring
Telnan; that looks like it was just a spur-of-the-moment idea.  Taking
the opening that desperation required and opportunity presented.  As
it were.
