She nods, extending her hands.

The weave transfers without incident, and to her surprise the feeling of Light does not pass; not until Moiraine's finger tips draw away.

She clears her throat again, and bends her head to study the markings. "Yes--I think this is very definitely a starting point. I believe I can read this. Let me try something."

She grabs another sheet of paper and rapidly sketches a copy of the diagram, but this time inverts the Fire weave relative to the lattice. She imagines, based on nothing more than the intuition that suggested the mechanism of the invisibility weave, that this should return the light rather than bending it around the object; a perfect mirror.

She might be wrong; but the more interesting point is if Moiraine can even see what she was trying to suggest.
