I just noticed, while rereading _Taltos_, that Vlad hides out in
Candletown after his first assassination under the name "Lord Mawdyear".
His use of that alias is also mentioned on the Dragaera Wiki.
What I don't remember noticing before, and what isn't mentioned on the
wiki, is that "Mawdyear" is a not-too-bad phonetic rendering of
"Magyar". So you-know-who was having fun again. (I'm not really sure
where this should be mentioned on the Wiki, so I haven't added it yet.)
