[ she pauses at rafael and isabella's entrance before turning back to address Buffy ] Teken'duis is a House name in this city, and a powerful one at that. So, yes, I would say he's intimately associated with one.
What you said about the Spider Queen and the House system is quite accurate, but unfortunately it's much more intricate than just that, most especially in this world. The dark elves don't have the liberty of isolating themselves or waging open wars on neighboring non-drow, so they've taken to very adeptly integrating themselves into human society. There's even a school that is open to all House drow in the city wishing to train in combat tactics or sorcery, and completely legal within the local system.
They've somehow managed to spin it to the city council as a progressive measure toward drow assimilation and unification, a way of protecting their culture. [ she rolls her eyes ]
