It's probably just a combination of the above. I thought the capital was excluded.

In Vanilla LA game this turn a mage I had set to monthly casting the Haruspex (spelling?) checked a water province then quit. In this game I have plenty of nature gems and it was the first province he checked. I have checked a handful of provinces in that game by site searching with n2 commanders.

In Priori one of my northern most provinces refused to be checked. This was a low pop mountain province that I had to manually search with every different type of mage. Also in Priori I reached a point where my death mages quit searching and I had to search a handful of provinces manually. This occured after taking far south territory from Shinuyami.

Uakari is the game where the one 3500 pop no magic site province refused to be searched. It is the northern most province in my holdings, or second northernmost.
