She can honestly say that she is not Black Ajah or a darkfriend. She's one of the Chosen, and as such is far above such things.
I doubt it's that simple. I can't see one of the Forsaken being willing to cut their life in half. I think the answer is more involved.
Neither would she want to take the other 2 oaths, both of which are much harder to worm your way out of.
She is either dissapearing & reappearing as an AS, or more likely she appeared as an Accepted or Novice or even a servant during the ousting of the BA by Egwene. As a non AS she would have nothing to worry about.
It's odd tho that Egwene never considers this, wasn't she taught about the Mask of Mirrors? She saw Moiraine use it on herself when she grew, so at the least she's seen some use of it if not taught by Moghedien.

To post a serious answer of my own: I assumed Darkfriends in the servants.

Moiraine has Aelfinn and Eelfinn servants waiting on her? Maybe she won't want to leave.

It's possible, but VERY few of the BA in the Rebels survived bc they were ambushed

Tiana ... And I suspect she was BA herself since we are later told Egwene would need a "proper MoN" *NM*

She was incompetent to show just how awesome Sharina is. Egwene always observed

Read Egwene's PoV in COT. Tiana is obviously disturbed by her. She defers without deferring. *NM*

The wording of the Oaths seems to make it easy for Mesaana to get around them.
