BUG: Game gets in a state that can't be progressed if you place orb before imprisoned

[olspookishmagus]

When reaching Chansel before being ambushed by the 3 grunts and put to "Sleep" and imprisoned in Cells I somehow managed to evade them and place the orb on its place.

Then as the game progresses you eventually reach a dead-end because you cannot trigger what the game expected, which is that you put the orb on it's place after you got imprisoned. ^^

Anyone else done it?
