Based on the post you linked to, the answer to my question is yes. It sounds like a candle will wander through any number of provinces with friendly dominion until it finds a home or until it hits a province of enemy dominion. Once it hits the enemy dominion, the enemy dominion is reduced or not based on a check. Regardless of the result of that check, the candle is finished.

Thanks for digging that up JonBrave.
