Annemehr:
Yes, but I'm sure she didn't read about anything in the DoM in a book,
so if she "understood" somewhat, could it be because she *sensed*
something?  I would call that being affected, although in a different
way to the other four.  I think she reacted too quickly for it to be
because she saw how it affected the others.
