Would Verra *want* to return to a Fenario that turned its back on her?
Or perhaps the only reason she was interested in Fenario in the first place, is that she had forseen her destroyer would originate there, hence she tried to influence events in that nation in order to have some influence over the one who would eventually weild Godslayer? (And now that he's around, but no longer in Fenario, the place holds no further interest for her?)

Yes, but she was destroyed in Fenario. Hence, cannot manifest there, no matter how many worshipers she has. (And Tri'nagore cannot manifest in the east, despite many of his worshipers no doubt surviving as well.)
Perhaps this provides compelling motivation for why there was a migration of Easterners into the Empire in recent years? Fenerians (like Noish-pa) were going someplace where Verra could still watch over them...
