Hmmm... This is a compelling argument.

However, it is possible that there was some additional, unknown element (Blue Phoenix Stone? Green Phoenix Stone? Silver Phoenix Stone?) that we haven't seen yet that blocks the ability of the human mind to influence Necrophia (The element in Trellanstone that reacts to a user's will). 

Thus, it is possible that a trip to Greenaere might do additional things that Vlad's amulet does *not* do.
