Ooo! Now I immediately fail to follow my own advice and put out a
suggestion: she went there twice. But why? How about:
"Damn it, Verra, you have got to fix this stupid Orb."
Nah, that doesn't work, because I think he specifies to Vlad that his
fighting off brigands occurred specifically while she was going there to
retrieve the Orb. 
Sorcery isn't impossible during the Interregnum, just very difficult.
(the question of the mechanisms of sorcery is a whole different issue.)
Still, it seems odd he would conclude it doesn't work now that it's easy
elsewhere, when his experience was from when it was difficult elsewhere.
