@JoeCoast: It actually does. Cinder's arm is hinted to work similarly in function to her glove that took Amber's powers. The reason taking half of the powers left Amber in a coma is because the powers are bound to the Maiden's souls, meaning Cinder took half of Amber's soul. Vernal on the other hand does not have any powers, as Cinder noted. Since there was no power to take, Vernal's soul wasn't ripped out of her body. So at the moment, Vernal has to only worry about the stab wound. It's still possibly deadly, but not as fatal as having your soul torn out.
