A Really Rough Chronology Of One Vlad Taltos's Life Totally Not Written In Math Class Except...
Age 4: Met grandfather. Mother, gone already.
Age 10: Already in service (through Father) the house of the Jhereg. Already studying witchcraft under grandfather, mostly informally.
Age 14ish: Witnesses first death in father's restaurant: father buys title in Jhereg, hires tutors. Grandfather starts tutoring Vlad in Eastern (Fenerian) fencing, witchcraft formally.
Age 16: Father dies, Vlad sells restaurant, joins the "business" side of the house, gains Loilosh.
Age 17: Begins "working" as an assassin.
Age 18-20ish : meets Morrolan.
Age 21-23ish: meets Catwi
Age 23-25: Dragon, gets married.
Age 26-27: Teckla and Phoenix
Then five to seven years on the road, then Athyra and Dzur.
I predict that if it was five years on the road and my memory without my books is accurate, then in 2 years, the storyline might be over. As that is exactly double 17. And Brust...yeah.
